Not to sound pessimistic, but the only way that would happen is wiping out humans.

Sure, I will walk back my impossible and replace it with improbable. People naturally have bias against outsiders. That natural bias can grow in to extreme bias in the form of racism. To end racism, you’d have to end bias.

I don’t think it’s necessary. Bias is not in inherently bad thing we just all need to be aware of it.
When people walk over long distances in a “straight” line, we actually walk in a wide/long curve because our dominant leg moves faster than our weak leg. That causes us to turn towards our weak leg.
In long distance land navigation you only need to be aware that you’re going to curve and mitigate accordingly. There is no need to ensure you walk straight as that’s impossible.

100%.
I was in the army and the equal opportunity classes use to be so awful. From 2008 to about 2015 every single annual class consisted of “what are some stereotypes” then everyone in the group lists off everything from “white people east casseroles and small funny” to “black people love chicken, and steal.”
Did absolutely nothing for solving any issues. I saw very little inherent racism. There was playful ribbing based on race but it was mutual and among friends.
What I did see a lot of and was possibly guilty of, was bias that could have affected people’s careers. I wish I had received more training on that.

This is such a foolish and unrealistic goal.
To "end" HIV you would have to monitor every person with HIV or in a high risk group and make sure they are taking their meds.
I've gotten virulently down voted for saying this before, but the fact is there are people who fetishize HIV. People who go off of PreP with the intention of getting infected, and people who go off their meds with the intention of infecting others.
I know there are some that will say I'm "gay bashing" ... I'm not, gay sex is great and should be enjoyed by more people. IF you care about truth, ask me before down voting and bad mouthing .
