@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling your ideas are actually confirmed by research or not. So far, others in this conversation have shared evidence with you & you’ve responded with what you think. So the conversation can’t go anywhere that way. I hope you’ll look into these topics a bit more.

@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling I really think you need to open your mind and research some of these topics we’ve discussed. You’ve stated a lot of opinions as if they’re fact. It’s fine to have those opinions based on your own experience but you should at least be willing to look into the research to check if

@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling You keep stating opinions as facts. I think if you actually check out the research you’d be surprised how many factors are out of people’s control and might come do a different conclusion about what constitutes “the rule” and “the exception.”

@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling Good on you, but this is anecdote. Your personal experience is not the same as large bodies of research and evidence.

@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling Categorically false. There is a strong correlation between poverty and higher weight. There is no evidence re laziness. There are also correlations with disability and other factors. Please stop stating your opinions as if they were facts when you clearly know nothing about this

@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling These are the Harvard implicit associations test. They will measure your unconscious bias in relation to a range of topics. Go check it out.

@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling Unconscious bias is present in every human being. It’s there because our brains are super efficient and want to categorize everything to save us time. You can have unconscious bias without being overtly, consciously hateful. And you can reinforce a harmful system w/o meaning to

@AnguianoDale @Paul62753492 @RealityOffends @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling Because it causes actual measurable harm through inequities in health and financial outcomes, risks to safety, and a whole host of other very real impacts. It’s not about being sensitive. It’s about a identifying major injustices in society and working to correct them

@AnguianoDale @RealityOffends @Paul62753492 @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling I’m not sure what you’re talking about, but there is a wide body of very real, very current, very credible research and evidence of harm caused to minority groups through various forms of discrimination in the present. Maybe you should check some of it out before you write it off

@AnguianoDale @RealityOffends @Paul62753492 @JutsuNoRoss @SQ10_2 @joshuaskywalke7 @jk_rowling It is in the present.
