    No more like western values compared to middle eastern values.

    So what was the timeframe of this map? A day? A week? A month?

    You need context Butterballs.

    It is true that LBJ said that, but in the 60s, the word "negro" was acceptable even to the blacks of that day. Even the show "Dragnet" from 68 to 72 occasionally used the word "negro" as well when describing a suspect.

    When LBJ signed the 1964 Civil Rights Act into law, he broke the Roosevelt coalition in which Democrats enjoyed. From that time one, the people in the south who voted Dixiecrat slowly went to the GOP.

    the GOP today is NOT the party of lincoln anymore, no lonter the progressive party of Theodore Roosevelt, no longer the party of Ronald Reagan. It is morphing into a new breed, much like the National Rally Party of France or Fidesz in Hungary. And that is not a good thing. More authoritarian and less values on Traditional Republicanism.

    The next time you vote in an election in suburbia, there will only be two voting machines there. How long do you think the line will be then?

    Restrictions include the lack of drop boxes, the reduction of polling places in urban areas, especially when there is a majority of minorities living in those areas, and gerrymandering the congressional districts, like what Gov DeSantis tried to do, and the list goes on.l

    And if you don't want the elderly to vote in large numbers, get rid of all absentee ballots/mail-in ballots. That is another way.

    You may want to look at Korea Town, Chinatown, Little Saigon, etc. Chinatown San Francisco or Chinatown New York City are about as American as apple pie. That being said, these are not at the bottom of the pile at all economically and they are considered tourist attractions, even to Mainland Chinese.

    You really should not focus on the name per se. Let's take the given name, Kelly. Is that a boy or a girl's name? Kelly is used for both. Or for that matter the given name Kim. That can be a girl's name or a boy's name. Jamal and Latasha are not exotic, uncommon yes in the United States, but not exotic.

    Acceptable, but I wouldn't call them apple pie. They conform, they adapt, they don't try to change the system and spend their time shouting 'Asian Power.'

    Oh noes... I gave up how many Asian students stick around, and you couldn't imagine how this all plays out.

    https://journalistsresource.org/economics/international-college-student-visa-asia-stem/
    Over a million international students study in the United States. China provides almost a third


    So there are about 300.000 Chinese students, 88% from China remain in the US. So that's 240.000.
    Say it takes 5 years to study. That means in 20 years, the US grew by 1 million foreign born highly educated Chinese.
    Chinese who earn on average like a dime in China, but they pay 10,000's of bucks to study in the US like it's nothing.
    We're talking about the rich elite here who bought their way into colleges into the US like I said.

    India, South Korea also chip in. And voila, there we go. While I'm casually never minding Indonesia and Bangladesh who combined got more people living in it vs the US.
    And these are just the students. I'm casually also omitting Asians who got their education in Asia and move to the US to earn a lot.

    So indeed, begone.

    Something you haven't debunked with a source.

    I don’t think you know what you sourced because it was behind a pay wall.

    I don't think you understand how easy it is to find a similar page saying exactly the same.
    And at this point it gets down right silly to do this "service" for anybody after the link got placed and people reacted to this like 10 times on it.

    The "diversity" agenda is that all people should have equal outcome (equity), not equal opportunity. Its based on the idea that every activity must be represented by a variety of people as measured by the percentage of that group in the population: 50% female, 50% male, 3% gay, 16% african american, etc.

    I see you are going to double down on being wrong. Not surprising. I've noticed that's your MO.

    I don't see you dispute the large influx of young Asians who are able to pay 10,000's a year for a college degree, who then massively end up living in the US. Asians who come from countries where the average wage of the people flat out can not pay for such an education.

    Also true.
    And it's just too weird that high positions are totally dominated by white males.

    What's there to dispute? You made the contention, supplied a study that did not prove a single point you made, and are still thrashing around with your talking point. It looks to me like you made something up in the heat of the moment, tried to find something to prove it later, failed, and are now stuck trying to defend a stupid comment.

    You're welcome to keep spinning. I'm enjoying the breeze.

    Jesus Christ. No what you posted is a story about a guy who is trying to refute a study from 2015 which showed that those names do NOT result in discrimination on resumes. The story you’re sourcing did not send out any resumes or anything of the like. The story you’re sourcing is about a guy who did a survey about how the “black” names used in 2015 weren’t black enough to illicit discrimination.

    But see you don’t know that because you have no idea what the story you sourced says.

    Furthermore here is a study by liberals. They are sociology professors and doctoral students at Miami University. They INTENDED to do a study where they would show that white managers hire at disproportionate rates because they’re racist. They wanted to show that blacks have a hard time finding jobs because they discriminated against in hiring.

    However if you look at the statistics in this report, what they found is that black managers hire black and white employees at GROSSLY disproportionate rates, while white managers hire at rates which are comparable to the overall population rate.

    Now these liberals were shocked by this finding but rather than just address the statistics, they tried to make up some bullshit about how when a white manager is hired AFTER a black manager, he ends up hiring less blacks than the black manager did. But that’s because the black manager hires at GROSSLY disproportionate rates hiring FAR more blacks than their population would suggest and FAR less whites.

    https://moya.bus.miami.edu/~lgiuliano/Hires.pdf

    As I said before, it is not blacks who face discrimination in hiring… it’s whites.

    Absolutely not.
    It's not a "story". I posted an article from Bloomberg who dragged in studies from 3 different universities who all came up with the conclusion that using ethnic black names on a resume results in less invitations for an interview.

    It reads:
    First, we find that all non-black managers—i.e., whites, Hispanics, and Asians—hire more whites and fewer blacks than do black managers. What’s more, these differences between non-black and black managers are especially large in the South.

    This indeed shows that black people are not hired enough by white people. And so they end up working for black managers. And it is like this, because black people are a minority. There are far more white managers vs white. It is so, because we know who earns the most.

    Yes they hire more whites than black managers because black managers GROSSLY under hire whites.

    As evidenced by their statistics

    @notme look at the chart yourself Table 3

    Black managers hire 44% whites and 30% blacks. While whites make up 65% of the total population and blacks make up 13%

    The idea that blacks and not whites are discriminated against in hiring is preposterously laughable.

    And for the record the Asians are really screwing everybody it looks like lol

    I mean every race is screwing every other race (except white people who are helping every race except our own… god we suck) but the Asians are the only ones who appear to be benefitting.

    The whites are the only race stupid enough to go against their own self interests. And we are the ones who everybody claims to be the problem lol So insanely ridiculous. It’s like we live in Bizzar-O world.
