So, are societies allowed to maintain any standards at all if it can be argued that the maintenance of standards has disparate impacts on racialized bodies?

Good point. I hope the legal tradeoffs will eventually lead towards a better life for all, rather than a uniformly bad life for all.

For this, at least some discrimination is needed.

Societies that embrace this in full will be outcompeted by the ones that avoid this trap.
