No…a sample population that is not representative of the general population.

If only the high achievers are selected…then of course that group will look better compared against a group where high, medium and low achievers are selected.

Basic rule of statistics.

No. Adding in refugees to dilute the population to your favor. What white refugees are we taking in? Are we not talking about Asian Americans?

And yes, those three items are all culture.

Are only the high achievers selected with whites?

Look at the poverty rates. I will argue all day long that not living in poverty is a measure of success.

Could it be that 7% in poverty is the best the combined white cultures can do?

Let’s see it.

Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965

After preference was given to unmarried children of citizens and then the spouses and unmarried children of permanent residents.

Next in line…

Visas shall next be made available, in a number not to exceed 10 per centum of the number specified in section 201(a) (ii), to qualified immigrants who are members of the professions, or who because of their exceptional ability in the sciences or the arts will substantially benefit prospectively the national economy, cultural interests, or welfare of the United States.

The term ‘profession’ shall include but not be limited to “profession,” architects, engineers, lawyers, physicians, surgeons, and teachers in elementary or secondary schools, colleges, academies, or seminaries."

Married children were next. Then brothers and sisters of citizens. Then non-seasonal skilled laborers not previously listed.

That applies only to Asians?

Yikes.

There are signals to be done with a conversation. That is the signal for me to be done with this one.

Have a good day.

I don’t blame you and I understand.

You mean it’s all a righty ploy to cause further division in the US? Hard to imagine.

Sorry. Actually no, that was for public consumption.

Your screenshot shows somebody trying to take advantage and counter the strategy. Gain control over a culture generator.

Not a bad idea and it will probably work to a large degree.

Counterthesis.

There will be no synthesis, it’s not necessary.

How a Conservative Activist Invented the Conflict Over Critical Race Theory

To Christopher Rufo, a term for a school of legal scholarship looked like the perfect weapon.

Looks more like a ploy to reject insanity to me.

They don’t even bother keeping their plan a secret.

The conflict is much older and larger and is between socialism and liberalism. Or collectivism and individualism if you prefer.

It is a fight to to be the decider.

That headline is ridiculous. The conflict is both ongoing and inevitable. Critical Race Theory is not some stand alone entity.

I don’t doubt. Rufo et al are attempting to use the small picture to their political advantage.

CRT is not some benign academic exercise; it has reached the praxis stage. That’s one of the reasons it’s so interesting.

Seems to be the usual “systemic racism isn’t holding back black people because some black people are successful” trope. Forest for the trees.

They live the color of their skin and make it plain for those who care to listen. Obviously…the virtuous white among us know the truth better than they do?

Nothing to do with virtue, I just have more trust in those who study large populations and in various areas over an individual.

There are many more participating in BLM marches who I assume are doing so because they don’t think everything is hunky-dory.

Let me be clear, I don’t believe these people should be shut down, their voice is valuable to the discussion… but they aren’t enough to discredit the other side… at least not yet.

I know…rite…how many pairs of Nikes have been stolen? You may desire to hear what criminals have to say but I don’t. I’d rather listen to those that are raising their children, following careers and are examples of what I expect from all. The wisdom the they preach, is what they practice.

“ The reaction to Rufo’s appearance that evening on Fox News was swift. The next day, Trump demanded action and, Rufo was soon in the White House for a meeting. Two days later, his budget chief issued a memo laying the groundwork for the federal government to cancel all diversity trainings. An executive order followed”

This is a republican-manufactured wedge issue.
