No, this is exactly what my claim was. That the same criticism of racism applies to CRT too. From CNN: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/10/01/us/critical-race-theory-e... > Critical race theorists believe

I'm not a fan of CRT, but you're 100% right. The issue with CRT is that every other theory and research of this subject (eg. IQ differences) has been shut down or obscured due to allegations of racism or fear of how society would

You say you don't need discrimination to explain it, but your explanation assumes discrimination ie. you have to be really damn good in order to even have a chance as a woman. There is another explanation, the distribution of IQ betwee

Considering the fact that they're fact-checking stupid memes, I wouldn't be surprised.

Minor correction, it wasn't a DM, it was a public tweet that had him tagged. Then his wife (or him pretending to be his wife) responded to the tweet from Eichenwald's account, that he just had a seizure and that she had called the

Everyone does that since forever and this isn't limited to a single political affiliation or even politics at all. By now this is a standard practice and I hope this isn't news for anybody.

"Referring to the origin [...] of such groups" might be it, but yeah, "common and distinctive culture, religion, language, or the like" alone doesn't make an ethnicity. I suspect the existence of ethnic groups will

If each color represents a particular heritable trait then it's more or less like that.

by ttt0 5y ago
No, I disagree. Colors can be mixed together, so does that mean that the color blue does not exists? Can you point me where exactly blue starts and ends on a rainbow? Let's go even further, and take two mixed colors - purple (blue+red)

There certainly are individuals who believe that, just like there are some Black individuals (Black nationalists/Israelites) who believe the exact opposite - that Whites are "inferior" and Blacks are "superior". But

> deliberately undermine a good candidate's chances of getting a job or promotion _because of their skin colour_ I'm sorry, but I have to ask. How do you feel about affirmative action?

by ttt0 5y ago
I'm not quite sure if I understand what they're trying to do. Are they trying to say that it isn't just skin color? That's the entire point of "racism", that it's not just visible characteristics. By the w

Yeah, what's going on with this? If I did something wrong then just warn me first, because it comes out of nowhere and I have no idea what the hell is going on. How does it even work? Is it triggered automatically or what? Hey dang, yo

What consent? We're talking about fictional characters here. Is Dwarf Fortress an immoral game, because the authors are not a part of groups like dwarfs, elves and goblins? And some in-game events may occur without the consent of those

What I find weird in our current status quo is how "sex work" and having an OnlyFans account is considered empowering, but a game about fictional characters like DOA is considered sexist and misogynist. I never played it, so I mig

EULAs already often prohibit disassembling the binary. That feels completely crazy to me, it's like saying that you aren't allowed to press Ctrl-U on a website. Is it actually legally binding?

Absolutely, in the full context channel owners often have zero incentive to remove any comments and it makes zero sense for them to do so, so I believe them too. Most people are aware of what YouTube is doing by now, but once in a while you
