@realBob_Johnson Your 2nd point was that purchasing power stayed the same was false - purchasing power generally increased since the 60s when adjusting for inflation (overall gotten better in most areas, but some areas declined)
@realBob_Johnson GDP per capita isn't a lie - it's the most common metric used by economics for standard of living. The #1 metric actually. It has its limitations for sure but it's one major data point that tracks living standards
@ChuckSteeleSr@realBob_Johnson@Cloudwatch199 but yes, gdp/capita is limited bc it only tracks a country's people's ability to purchase basic needs, goods and services.
but limited bc it doesn't track many metrics like health outcomes, education and literacy rates, purchasing power etc. (almost all went up as well)
@ChuckSteeleSr@realBob_Johnson@Cloudwatch199 I said verbatim, lost much of the majority. Went down roughly 20% or so
The guy implied america is doing bad based off where it is. But i pointed out it's statistically false, by pointing out gdp/capita - a metric for standard of living
@realBob_Johnson@Cloudwatch199 in the last 20 years crime has gone down substantially. overall crime, murder rates, property crime all down
....which btw also the decades of the highest non white-immigration in USA history mind you (feel free to fact check me on both facts here)
@realBob_Johnson@Cloudwatch199 but yeah, almost all metrics have improved in the last 60 years, feel free to fact check me. most health metrics (life expectancy, patient ineffiency), education completion rates, gdp per capita, household median wages. 80-85% of metrics have improved. feel free to fact check me
@realBob_Johnson@Cloudwatch199 I agree, those guys did a great job.
But I will push back bc a white majority is not strictly necessary. USA is better in most metrics since it lost much of its white majority.
Like gdp/capita (standard of living), median household wealth, crime is down etc - fact check it
@iSolodaverse@XVIthPrimarch@fwprism pattern recognition is one thing, but when it leads to someone to treating someone worse/bad/negatively because of their race, especially when you have no information on them, that's when it leans in the wrong direction. People don't deserve bad treatment
@ScalyWaggington@RealDianeYap and stop talking about conquering you sound weird. you probably make minimum wage you did nothing close to conquering. only thing you conquer is that cheese burger at mcdonalds
@saveameric1va@CurtisHouck I'm open-minded though, do you have any evidence that fear/intimidation was the main reason for widespread white flight? I'm curious where you were getting that from.
@saveameric1va@CurtisHouck This is the main way it's happening though - for mostly minor reasons - not from any sort of intimidation from the people moving in.
