None of those are really taboo to discuss: police funding has only increased in recent years, Joe Biden has been quietly upgrading security on the southern border since the start of his term, and the supreme court recently ruled against affirmative action.

I've noticed than when people on the internet say "I'm not allowed to discuss X", what they actually mean 99% of the time is "I'm not allowed to be an abusive jerk to other participants". (The other 1% of the time, they're posting off-topic in a tightly focused forum.)

Don't forget, in 1967 (the year in which Loving v Virginia was decided), interracial marriage had less than 20% popular support: https://news.gallup.com/poll/354638/approval-interracial-mar...
