What's so great about Diversity?

What's that supposed to mean? You are the one that is hung up on colors. You forget your MLK- "..by the content of character and not the color of skin". If colors matter how do you explain poor whites among the so called "privileged"?

Meanwhile you got blacks and Indians and Asians that excell economically. Are these people victims of racism?

 

we who laugh at the constant throwing of the race card are laughing at your post.

 

what it means is that he cannot refute your argument so he is trying to shame you with insinuations that you are racist. it's a pathetic but common tactic

 

Some people think because the Man is keeping people down so they are absolved of all responsibility. What they don't know is that the Man is keeping everyone down.

 

Because you wanna hyper focus on white race violence in a white majority nation where we represent half the country but you wanna ignore black race violence in a country majority black.

And guess what! I'd wager that any country that is majority 1 race will likely see that race in the driver seat of race based violence.

There is NOTHING special about white supremacy like it's a special skill to hate by white people. It's just we have the largest group right now. That will change as we shrink and some other race takes the the driver seat and then you can hymne and hah over why that happens...

 

Do I not understand something about your point because I’m saying that human society can’t exist without diversity? The solution isn’t to get rid of diversity, because it’s never going to happen. Western Europe was engaged in war after war for thousands of years. Enlightenment ideas like democracy has led to a the most peaceful Europe and USA in western history, not the opposite.

 

I already don’t consider the USA a white majority nation. The majority is barely there. White people are already drastically insignificant.

 

That’s not how AA works. Nobody is required to hire a unqualified candidate. If the candidate is qualified and a diversity candidate then they are elevated because of their diversity. White women have benefited the most from affirmative action than any other group in the history of the United States.

 

Maybe I should have said "similar skill levels"; obviously in many situations a mix of skills of appropriate levels may work well.

 

Either one will do.

 

bullshit. if there is one seat at Harvard and a white guy with a 4.0 and a perfect LSAT applies and they give it to a black woman with a 3.4 and a 94th percentile LSAT, that is racist. In a competitive field, it is not a question of qualification but who is more qualified. Just like picking a track team or a chess team.

 

What SCOTUS Justices did these dozens of lawyers clerk for ?
How many sat on a Court of Appeals?
Circuit Court?

 

what does that have to do with the post of mine you quoted? I was noting they were better attorneys. Biden's pick wasn't even in the top 50 of her law school class

 

Sorry but the stats show what the stats show. This is an America wide analysis and FYI there are international graphs showing levels of international terrorism. But if you want to hunt out other graphs from other countries to prove you “point” then feel free but do not expect me to do YOUR homework

 

So I'm not going to get an answer to the question I asked about what you meant when you said, "I believe the primal reason Americans are acting the way they are is because they’re threatened by losing power and cultural influence." As used in this sentence, who are the Americans who are threatened and who are they losing this "power and cultural influence" to?

Also I don't know what you are talking about when you say "human society can’t exist without diversity." I don't think I was making that point. Also I never said anything about "The solution isn’t to get rid of diversity, because it’s never going to happen." I never said anything about that either. Why did you bring that up and what point were you trying to make? How does it relate to anything I posted?

 

The graph you posted showed 150 incidents between '93 and 2017. That's twenty years. Furthermore it shows 42% of 150 incidents were atributed to "white supremacist" while all the other categories are not "supremacists" but "extreamists". 42% of 150 is 63 incidents. In twenty years. Not bad for a multicultural and ethnically diverse country of more than three-hundred and twenty million people.

Edit- it's 24 years. Not twenty. That works out to two and five-eighths incidents atributed to white supremacy annually.

 

Half the damn country is white...what the hell you talkin about?

Don't get confused by Hollywood's ****ed up over representation fella. Only 13 percent of America is black. And before the 2020 census a good chunk of hispanics identified as white so...

 

It has everything to do with your post.
If they were better attorneys (dozens to 1) and no answer from you where they are today and how they got there speaks volumes.

"What SCOTUS Justices did these dozens of lawyers clerk for ?
How many sat on a Court of Appeals?
Circuit Court?"
Traffic Court? lol

 

What about an albino? We have never had an albino with a seat in congress or for President. We need more albinos if we need to be diverse. You know, for aesthetics.

The race wouldn't matter, so long as they got pink eyes.

 

well lets see: one was the first clerk for Justice Kennedy, a founder of the Federalist Society and was the US Attorney General for several months. Phi beta kappa at Yale, Yale Law Journal
The second was also a founder of the federalist society, a clerk for Scalia, a senate counsel, and now a tenured professor at G'Town. summa cum laude at Yale, order of the coif U of Chicago
the third was a clerk for Scalia, a founder of the federalist society, now a chaired professor of constitutional law at NW, editor Yale Law Journal
another was the valedictorian at Michigan State, a truman scholarship recipient, eight in his class at Harvard and then has been in the DOJ since graduation.
another was summa at Rice, Magna At Harvard Law, US attorney and now a partner at a top law firm nationally
another was Phi Beta Kappa Kentucky, top of her class, editor, chicago law school, Clerk for Scalia, and chief of the appellate section for the US Attorney

everyone of those people had far higher academic credentials than Biden's pick

 

Johnny Winter would have made a rocking senator

 

I was thinking Yellowman.



Not only is he an albino, but he is a Jamaican and black- how's that for diversity? We got two squares checked off right up front, black and albino, and the Jamaican part is all bonus!

 

Spanglish.

So I guess all or most have been nominated by a president for either a Supreme Court justice, court of appeals judge or district court judge, yes?
The Federalist Society is known as zeeee vetter.

 

uh you seem confused. you seem to think that because Biden nominated a second string individual to be on the Supreme court-that makes her superior, academically, to those who were disqualified by Biden since they were white

 

Everything about college entrance was designed to favor white Christians: legacy scholars, sports scholars, even geographic diversity programs like picking a person in Idaho because there is nobody from Idaho on the rooster yet, and people from Idaho aren’t very likely to be Jewish. AA was designed to level this out. These colleges can’t be trusted to admit people on academic achievement alone. They have never done it. They never will.
