@bolsh3vik Also you when cheap generalization fails to establish your favorite breakfast cereal as a moral imperative.

@MeanBart62651 @BaileyStan12 It sounds pretty good to me.

[repaschall @repaschall2]

@Smileyhat @BaileyStan12 Since I'm doing it. You have to account for caramelizing the onion five times until they stop coming out burnt.

@manfightdragon It's a guy, right?

@MattDaleyOH The disingenuousness and willful obtuseness of this post are an example of a common tactic of emotional manipulation in support of the agenda Bret is talking about.

Everyone saying Elon Musk is the world’s first trillionaire is conveniently ignoring the entire country of Zimbabwe

[repaschall @repaschall2]

@MLFootball That's a riot, not a celebration.

[repaschall @repaschall2]

@owndodgerhaters @JonnyRoot_ You don't understand what the controversy is over.

[Clint Russell @LibertyLockPod]

If you're angry about Elon Musk becoming the first trillionaire after a lifetime of innovation just wait until you hear about how the federal government steals over five trillion dollars from the American tax payer per year.

It took Elon 36 years of work.
In that time the federal government stole 105 trillion dollars in taxes. Not to mention the 40 trillion they took out in debt.

Did they solve world hunger? Did they give you free healthcare? Did they give everyone a house?

No. They blew up a couple million people living near Israel.

But, yeah. Elon is the real problem.

After 7 decades of "civil rights" activism, we have a huge black population that believes murder ought to be legal if against a white person.

Black students ought to pretend to be white on college applications, since we are said to live in a "white supremacist" society. Strangely, they do not.

That's because the truth is this: white people, in the 7 decades since the civil rights movement, crippled their own children with preferential policies that favored much less qualified black applicants in schooling and employment.

Any qualification that blacks couldn't meet at the same rate as whites had to be thrown out (or you bankrupt yourself in court by trying to show, with a team of vulture lawyers after you, that the requirement was absolutely necessary).

Countless jurisdictions have had to throw out entry exams entirely after no amount of dumbing them down could get enough black students to pass them.

The campaign against "gifted and talented" programs, meanwhile, has been driven partly by the "disparate impact" doctrine.

You've heard some of the news items. Seattle phased out its "highly capable cohort" (separate accelerated classes/schools) starting around 2021-2022, and aimed for full phase-out by 2027-2028 (with some delays). The rationale? Addressing "historical inequity" and overrepresentation of white and Asian students.

Your student can't have those programs because we've decided there are too many people in them who look like him.

Rockville Centre, New York, has long moved away from gifted tracking toward mixed-ability classes. San Francisco Unified delayed Algebra I and eliminated honors/gifted math tracks for "equity" purposes. We could go on and on.

Even though some of America's most politically "progressive" people are in education, and despite repeated and aggressive (and expensive) efforts across the country, no school district anywhere in America, no matter how progressive, has ever managed to eliminate the black-white educational achievement gap, which by 12th grade is estimated as a four-year difference.

And vastly fewer black students percentage-wise choose to take advanced-placement classes even in school systems in which such classes are open to anyone.

Given that nobody anywhere has been able to solve this problem, why, apart from hatred and spite, should bright students be singled out to be deprived of a program that benefits them?

The disparities are evident even at the very beginning of the educational process. The National Center for Educational Statistics found that blacks entering kindergarten we're already disproportionately testing in the bottom, quarter of students in reading, math, and general knowledge.

Behavioral differences are also evident that early, and they persist to the future. On average, black students are much less likely than whites to be described by kindergarten teachers as a tentative, eager to learn, and persistent in carrying out assigned tasks, and they are more likely to be described as argumentative, quick tempered, and violent.

These discipline disparities persist over time. Later in life blacks are 2 1/2 times as likely to be suspended or expelled from school as whites.

Faced with statistics, like these, so-called civil rights groups, typically accuse white teachers of arbitrarily, singling out blacks for punishment. To the contrary, black teachers have been found to be even more critical of black students than white teachers are.

Moreover, Asian students are less than half as likely as whites to be suspended or expelled, and it is unreasonable to ask us to believe that an anti-white, pro-Asian bias permeates the American educational system.

And educational disparities between the races persist even when social class is taken into account, so that comfortable explanation doesn't work.

The crime statistics tell us everything: if you based your opinions on TV or the movies, you would think the big problem in America is white-on-black violence. In fact, the reality is so overwhelmingly the opposite that most people would be shocked to learn the real numbers.

Per 10,000 whites, 3.4 violent crimes are committed against blacks. Per 10,000 blacks, 153 violent crimes are committed against whites.

As time has gone on, special accommodations for blacks, and disabilities placed on whites, have only grown more intense.

In 2023 the percentage of white men in tenure-track faculty positions at Harvard declined from 39 percent in 2014 to 18 percent. That doesn't happen by accident.

Oh, who cares about Harvard faculty, some will say.

But it reflects a society-wide problem. Here are some other numbers we now know, that also incorporate the anti-male bias in hiring:

TV/Hollywood Writers: White men comprised roughly 48% of lower-level TV writers in 2011, dropping to 11.9% by 2024.

Medical school matriculants: White men accounted for 31% in 2014, declining to 20.5% in 2025.

The Atlantic staff: In 2013: 53% male / 89% white; by 2024: 36% male / 66% white.

University faculty hiring (tenure-track): At UC Berkeley, white men comprised 52.7% of new tenure-track faculty hires in 2015, dropping to 21.5% in 2023.

Humanities/social sciences faculty hires: UC Irvine hired 64 tenure-track assistant professors in humanities and social sciences since 2020 — only 3 (4.7%) were white men.

At UC Santa Cruz, of 59 assistant professors in Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (2020–2024), only 2 (3%) were white men.

Law school matriculants: White men accounted for 31.2% of law school matriculants in 2016, falling to 25.7% in 2024.

Corporate/tech entry- and mid-level (specifically Amazon): Entry-level “professionals” (college graduates) were 42.3% white male in 2014. By 2024, mid-level managers had fallen from 55.8% white male in 2014 to 33.8% (nearly 40% decline).

Tech workforce (specifically Google): White men represented nearly 50% of the workforce in 2014, dropping to less than one-third by 2024 (a roughly 34% relative decline).

Four years ago a survey of a thousand hiring managers in the United States came out that showed 16 percent of such managers had been expressly told to stop hiring white men.

Further, 48 percent of hiring managers say they have been instructed to prioritize "diversity" over merit, and 53% believe they will lose their jobs if they don’t hire accordingly.

All across the country there are special programs, of every shape and size, for minority applicants. If you had any idea of the scale of it, you would be shocked -- no matter how much you think you know about the subject.

Instead of the kind of gratitude you might expect from people who have benefited from the most systematic effort in any society to assist a minority group -- I haven't even mentioned the literal trillions in wealth redistribution -- it is never enough, and the recipients will scream "RACIST" in your face even for pointing any of this out.

We can hope that the Karmelo Anthony case accelerates the coming of the day when whites say: we have done everything humanly possible for you, and received only hatred and ingratitude in return. You are on your own now.

@suetheob @raptros_ That is certainly the false dichotomy presented to try to justify it.

@mattyglesias My opinion doesn't stop someone from forming their own.

@queenie4rmnola On the bright side, maybe he'll meet his own Andy Dufresne in there.

“What is the evidence of voter fraud in LA?”

Imagine I tell you let’s play a game. We’re going to flip a coin. If it’s tails, I’ll give you $100. If it’s heads, you owe me $100.

Then I walk into the next room. When I return, I tell you “It was heads”.

Maybe I’m telling the truth. Maybe I’m a well intentioned and honest person, and the fact that this seems incredibly shady is just a total coincidence. Or maybe I scammed you. The point is you have no way of knowing. You may claim that I just scammed you… but there’s “NO EVIDENCE” that I did!

And THAT is our election process.

For years now in our elections, we have seen irregularity after irregularity, numbers that don’t make sense, math that doesn’t add up, statistical impossibilities — all of which always seems to exclusively benefit one party.

In our legal system, REASONABLE SUSPICION is the standard in which law enforcement can investigate a possible crime. Why is that not the same standard for our elections?

Every American deserves to have faith in our electoral process. And there is just no objective way that anybody can have faith in the current system. If our elections were clean, there would be transparency, and investigations would be welcomed.

School children are told “Show your work” when it comes to math homework. That’s all most of us are saying when it comes to the corrupt bastards handling these ballots:

Show your work. 🤔

@Vfkdbavua @AllInfidel6 @Nicoletta0602 Your attitude is ill-advised.

[repaschall @repaschall2]

@AllInfidel6 @Nicoletta0602 Karmelo Anthony is imprisoned because his parents failed to teach him about society's boundaries (laws), which in many cases, supercede personal boundaries set by individuals.
