The NAACP wouldn't need to exist if someone didn't invent race. Once race was invented and then forced on everyone in the world, of course groups like the NAACP had to exist. The alt-right is promoting a world view which is regressive considering technology will obsolete race if we let it. There will still be different groups of people, but much more individualized between gene enhanced, cyborgs, natural humans, etc.

I suggest this might be interesting.
I am aware of the empathy deficit and that is why we have computers. I don't have to feel empathy for 1 billion people to have my algorithms tell me which decisions would be best for 1 billion people with empathy as a factor in the decision. Basically, outsource that thinking to our exocortex which can feel the empathy on our behalf, and inform us.
Just like am not expected to do math in my head anymore, and human computers don't sit in a room doing calculations anymore. In 2016 we can simply Google it. In 1990 we could use a spread sheet. In 1980 we would use a calculator. Empathy will have to be augmented.
