The Diversity Industry

https://www.kare11.com/article/news/breastfeeding-moms-supporters-gather-in-mora-for-nurse-in/89-576283105

The breast feeding "scandal" might be the "diversity industry" in action.

What are the odds a situation occurred where two moms choose to breast feed in the kiddie pool, and a few days later start talking about rights violations, as a group magically appears in solidarity and every news network picks it up?

Not saying it can't happen organically, but I just don't believe it is. This is either a publicity stunt, or some kind of scam (Wait and see if they start talking lawsuits for any sum of money.)

As a black man, I would actually feel pretty low if I were to receive something, not because of my performance, but because of my race.

That’s why I love the army. For all the shits that happens in the Military, racism is hardly ever mentioned. I am not gonna sit here and type this as if it doesn’t exist. But it is so miniscule, it’s not worth mentioning.

When I received my stripes, I didn’t recieved them because I was black, I received them because I was good at my job. A job, where all of my leaderships were whites. All who sat on the board were white, except for one 1sg who happens to look a cross Hispanics or islanders. 1sg Ott is his name.

So in this day and age, I don’t believe in diversity for diversities sake. It will always fail. And in the end of the day, as a minority, doesn’t feel far better that you made through life, not becuse someone thought you inferior, but because your just better than others? I ****ing do!

You can find a lot more examples from Asian advocacy groups.

Jesus.

Imagine working so hard, busting your ASS, and not getting into an Ivy League school, because of your race.

On WHAT PLANET is that ok? That a Latino or darker skin gets in with lower schools for “diversity”?

The culture that drives East Asians is brutal. They work like dogs for their grades. They sacrifice so much. Anyone can do as well as they do, if they had the will power.

I read that some downplay their Asian heritage, even lying about it.

How can that ever be a good thing? Lying about your race so you are not prejudiced against? Is that not the definition of systemic racism?

Like I said, this shit is the flip side of nationalism and ALWAYS ends up because the compassion is always driven by envy. The moment someone does better or more, they need to be pulled down.

Go Google "BLACK WEALTH" and the name Antonio Moore will come up. Go read the 64 page report he provided with Dr. Garrity and then provide those "FACTS" as a counterpoint.

You have Black college graduates working Uber and living at home while you trot out this TRASH as fact. 30 PERCENT of Black people in America live in poverty. The Median wealth of a Black family in America is somewhere around $1200-1500 including ALL assets.

Take "Personal issue" with your own ARROGANCE and IDIOCY and not my referencing reality for Black men in America!

Ya. Black people had a ridiculously bad deal in the US for generations. Poverty, slavery, drugs etc. to no end. It was a carefully constructed destruction of a people.

I can’t find support to this data but yo man, it’s tough. The “thug culture” discourages education and achievement. It’s so deeply rooted I dek where to start.

Seen many friends get sucked in by it but I never felt the urge. Home life is the biggest factor I think. But it also comes down to personal choice.

Regardless I kind of think your statement is bullshit and makes no sense. How can a qualified graduate not find a job? Did he do internships? Network? What degree does he have? From what school? These are all important factors. Any of those can be a MUCH bigger reason than skin colour. No company is going to let a qualified graduate rot in Uber wtf. There is a lot of value in companies for that, especially in today’s age.

Many problems are multivariate. We like them to come down to one thing. Especially if that one thing is the answer to a shit load of problems. It never is. The world is far more complex.

Let’s also not forget that there’s no shortage of white college graduates driving Ubers or working at Starbucks, or who are unemployed altogether.

Okay, got it. You're just another racist trying to keep black people down.

You're poison.

AGAIN!

THERE IS A 64 PAGE REPORT PRODUCED BY ANTONIO MOORE AND DR. SANDY GARRITY ABOUT BLACK WEALTHN IN AMERICA IN 2018!!!

ALL THE FACTS ARE ENTAILED WITHIN THAT DOCUMENT!!!

WHAT EXCUSE ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE NOW IN REGARD TO FACTS?!!!!

You're aware of the fact that White women are the greatest beneficiaries of Affirmative action, right?

That’s why I am against affirmative action.

Years ago, when equality was a problem, then yes, affirmative was needed. Now, it is useless.

Please don't get angry. I don't want you to get this upset.

You did not present any facts or arguments. Just a vague reference. In the first response, you stated "Are you aware of the fact that a White Male ex convict has a better chance of employment than a College educated Black man with no criminal history?"

And I immediately debunked that idea by showing:

"Similarly educated black Americans have median incomes at 95% of their white peers. And black Americans actually have HIGHER incomes than similarly educated whites."

Which directly and inexorably disproves the claim you posted.

You stated a point and presented it as fact. I tore it down by presenting the actual facts.

Then your response was just to refer to a paper. You did not refute the facts I presented and you did not support your position.

I can't even get into their sampling methodologies because we haven't even gotten that far into the discussion, yet.

You didn't call me any names but you did lay on the condescension so I think this conversation is still salvageable to move back into civility.

Here, I'll even do your legwork for you. In that report, this is the first section:

Myth 1: Greater educational attainment or more work effort on the part of blacks will close the racial wealth gap

...

*According to this logic, we would expect blacks and whites with similar levels of education to display comparable levels of wealth.

Wealth and income are not the same thing. However, income leads to wealth over time:

https://www.moneycrashers.com/wealth-and-income-difference/

If you wish to increase the wealth of the black community, you need to first increase the income. The most direct and poignant correlation is education. Income gaps almost disappear or at the graduate level, blacks can actually earn more.

Therefore, this particular point in that report has a dishonest approach to their myth 1. They should state, "Getting an education and influencing educational attainment, multigenerationally, is the best way to increase wealth in the black community." But they don't. Isn't that telling of their bias? Don't you want to see the black community increase their income and, long-term, their wealth?

Also, notice that the report completely lacks your original point?

https://socialequity.duke.edu/sites/socialequity.duke.edu/files/site-images/FINAL%20COMPLETE%20REPORT_.pdf

Here is your original point:

"Are you aware of the fact that a White Male ex convict has a better chance of employment than a College educated Black man with no criminal history?"

I directly disproved that.

I'm just not finding this "fact" again. I keep seeing the same thing reported over and over: that white women are attending college in larger numbers than ever and that must mean that they are the greatest beneficiaries of Affirmative Action policies.

That's not a good argument at all.

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/affirmative-action-white-women_us_56a0ef6ae4b0d8cc1098d3a5

I mean, look at this article:

"...data and studies suggest women — white women in particular — have benefited disproportionately."

http://ideas.time.com/2013/06/17/affirmative-action-has-helped-white-women-more-than-anyone/

And here is the link he used to cite that:

https://www.chronicle.com/blogs/brainstorm/the-death-of-affirmative-action-part-i/44860

The citation he used is an opinion piece, a blog post. He didn't support his position at all.

And I'm seeing crap like this over and over again. It's like everyone is saying it but no one is presenting actual evidence of it. This just seems to be an identify politics meme and not an actual fact.

It gets worse! An often cited "study" is this one that was published 20 years ago:

http://www.timwise.org/1998/09/is-sisterhood-conditional-white-women-and-the-rollback-of-affirmative-action/

They make a case about women getting more education and work and do little to nothing at all to support the case that white women are disproportionately benefitting from affirmative action.

But here is where they think they do a great job of proving this disproportionality:

"According to state data, white women hold 35% of top administrative jobs in Washington, compared to 5.8% for women of color."

And you know what that ratio is? 6 to 1. You know what the ratio is in raw population numbers? 6 to 1. So, holy shit, this is a stupid stupid point they are trying to make. It's as if the authors were not aware of the population ratios and accidentally stumbled across another figure that demonstrates, yet again, what the racial population ratios are.

Anyway, I'd like to explore this topic more. Have anything good for me to digest?

DDM women still need AA. So much is against them. Did you know professional scientists have discovered that air conditioning is sexist? Just one of the many hurdles these fragile creatures face each and every day.

Ah yes, the fallacy of incomplete evidence. Also, a summer job for teenagers!

Here's that infamous Anita quote that people seem to enjoy taking out of context so much when editing their snazzy and amazingly well-informed YouTube videos:

"I sort of joke about how it was the most liberating thing that ever happened to me and also the most frustrating for everyone around me 'cause like when you start learning about systems, everything is sexist, everything is racist, everything is homophobic, and you have to point it all out to everyone all of the time so there's a good year of my life where I was just the most obnoxious person to be around."

She's talking about how, when she was first learning about these things, it narrowed her vision and she sees it as a flawed period of her life (she calls herself obnoxious and states she was frustrating to be around) because she was obviously learning the ropes and was only using a hammer so everything looked like a nail.

(Relevant snippet is 32 minutes into the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jzcs4ti_bdI)

He was joking, Lost. Calm yer ****.

That means he wasn't trying to say anything?

Fuck bro, I can hear the barking. They're responding!

Anita is a small part of the video. The other shit on there wasn't out of context. It's about batshit crazy feminists(Like Anita) who scream sexism when it doesn't apply. That clip of Anita itself might not prove it.

Anita herself is an obnoxious kunt though. And yes, a batshit crazy feminist. Enjoy:

So I sure hope you took issue with the specific clip and aren't actually trying to defend Anita. Lol. Cuz that's a losing battle.

Nice fucking try, dude. I don't give a shit how much you disagree with someone so you can pivot until you turn blue in the face because it doesn't make it okay to take someone out of context.

You get this very fundamental function of, like, Reasoning 101, yeah?

That was a quickfire screencap collection of article titles and shit. How the hell is that video "about" anything? You said screaming when it doesn't apply? You know that about EVERY article shown in that video where Anita obv wasn't taken out of context or it's fine because you don't like her and/or disagree with her? ALSO, since Anita wasn't proclaiming everything was sexist, racist, or whatever (again, IN CONTEXT, she discusses how disappointing these attitudes were), that clip of her in that quickfire garbage YT video has zero merit and/or meaning UNLESS you want to pretend that all she said was "everything is x, everything is y, everything is z."

If you'd like to come back to reality, though, we can talk about it?

Lol holy shit you're one of those triggered feminists. That shit is golden.

Male feminist or female? If male, how many women have you sexually assaulted? Ballpark figure.

Good job. Nice memes, bro.
