So if all subgroups are subject to slander directed at their subgroup, then why is the answer to further segregate subgroups and create segregated services that only cater to certain subgroups?

I fail to see the "segregated" and "only" parts. Marketing to a particular demographic and reflecting the life experiences of that demographic doesn't mean that other demographics aren't allowed, nor does it mean that nobody else is going to be interested.

I dunno I feel like half this thread would never have even happened if they lead with e.g.
> BlackOakTV - A streaming service promoting content by black creators focused on black culture
instead of:
> BlackOakTV - Netflix for Black people
OP asked for feedback. They can do what they want with it (including ignore it).
Or to put it another way, with an example: I'm sure there are plenty of non-religiously-observant American Jews who would be happy to treat race as a non-entity, but that's not much of an option for them when anti-Jewish slander and violence is an ongoing part of society.
