It’s a laff riot to watch modern progressives—they’re supposed to be
the "intelligent" ones, right?—try to explain why affirmative action
fails to make people equal. This is from a Slate article bemoaning
the fact that Richard Nixon was affirmative action’s main
presidential architect:
https://slate.com/human-interest/2014/02/affirmative-action-its-time-for-liberals-to-admit-it-isnt-working.html
"…[T]he liberal establishment pinned the economic hopes of the civil
rights revolution on a program set up by a president whose racial
philosophy was based on the idea that blacks make great athletes
and Asians are good at math."
Oh, I see—that’s a "philosophy," nothing more than a belief. It’s not
a statistical fact that blacks make great athletes and that Asians are
good at math; it’s the stillborn hatchling of a diseased brain.
Here’s the American Prospect explaining why those of African origin
always seem to wind up with a "disadvantage":
"Minority disadvantage—whether it’s African Americans here or Afro-
Latinos in Brazil and other South American countries—is almost
always the cumulative result of explicit discrimination and exclusion
from mainstream life."
If that’s the case, why is it that the mutha country's descendants, even
when given severely unfair advantages in higher education, tend to
drop out at higher rates, anyway?
One need not be a White supremacist to make these points. One
need not mention White people at all. Asians are the group that
shatters all the egalitarians’ dreams and curdles all their milk.
Asians have to spot blacks 280 SAT points just to be "equal" with
them. Why are Asians seemingly immune to this "explicit
discrimination and exclusion from mainstream life" that seems to
hobble blacks wherever they go? Why does all this alleged "White
supremacy" fail to work its fatal gris-gris on Asians?
Innate inequality—rather than the kind allegedly caused by
“racism” that requires an ever-expanding bureaucracy to try and
make everything equal again—has been deemed an unthinkable
thought precisely because it is so true. To acknowledge its truth
would be to tug gently at the one loose thread that unravels their
entire rainbow sweater. And that’s why they scream and bark and
vow the destruction of anyone who dares to speak it. The world has
become Harrison Bergeron in overdrive:
