Can you give examples of how you think there are “inventive” ways people are being racist/sexist?

The usual argument I see is that group differences in outcome exist, therefore there necessarily must be discrimination somewhere causing those differences. That this discrimination can't be found is proof of how inventive the people doing the discriminating are.

Since these practices are inferred from their effects rather than directly observed, there's no list.
