OwlFancier posted:That shouldn't really be possible without finishing school, you need a post-school qualification to qualify for university so unless he went to a university building to do a non-university qualification I don't see how he could. He could have done that and done A-levels elsewhere. Or done that and then an access course. Or got some relevant NVQs/BTECs and convinced an admissions board. Or the bit about him being a high-school dropout was actually a mistruth on the internet.  Doesn't stop him being an rear end in a top hat though. James Watson and Tim Hunt are both Nobel laureates and far more qualified than I'll ever be unless I find where they've been keeping the magic money tree, but I still feel qualified to call them assholes for their attitudes to women and minorities. Even in areas where you should have a clue what you're talking about many trans people have a story about rear end in a top hat endocrinologists. There's a line where your qualifications don't protect you from being thought less of for this poo poo. And even if he'd finished university, having a Single Honours in Comp. Sci. doesn't mean you know poo poo about race or gender.

Middle class white racism is the most insidious and vicious. Jethro up in the mountains probably hasn't even seen a black man in years, but the middle class have the incentive and ability to actively disenfranchise anyone who doesn't fit the paper bag test.

And in my experience, working class whites aren't as bad because they often actually have to work with the people they're supposed to hate. It's pretty difficult to harbor hatred when you work alongside other types of people for years, going through the same struggles together. It's very humanizing.

fallenturtle posted:FWIW, Carl claims he went to two years of Uni before dropping out. Does the UK have a similar set up regarding colleges and universities as the U.S. does? Here, anyone can go to college as long as they're 18, but universities require either high school diplomas or a sufficient completion of college classes (usually two years worth in most cases). If so, then I don't think he went to Uni. When he was being interviewed by Maddox and they brought that up, he kind of looked uncomfortable and almost ashamed when he admitted that he dropped out of high school.

I think it more or less works similarly in the UK. University courses usually have a minimum requirement of grades from high school, but you can also go to college and complete HNC/HNDs which can count towards entry requirements. I think universities can also accept you if you happen to be experienced in your chosen area despite a lack of formal qualifications (like, you went straight into a job out of school and build a career) but I'm not overly familiar with the ins and outs of the education system.

Monglo posted:The article seems extremely biased. I mean if Sam Harris really said those words in the way its portrayed, don't you think Maajid Nawaz, a Muslim brown person, the podcast guest, would not object to it? It's taken out of context, when Harris asks the question he is expressing a position that he doesn't personally share. Maajid Nawaz is part of a group of people that claim to be Muslim "reformers" but don't actually practice the religion and get most of their funding from right wing think tanks. They frequently target any other Muslim personality, right or left, who gets more recognition than they do, and it leads to them allying with bigots. Of course Nawaz doesn't mind saying that adding Muslims will destroy society. Look at the reformers he and Harris support. Asra Nomani: Virulent trump supporter. Tarek Fateh: Accused a black rapper with an Arab name of being a Saudi puppet and fathering 11 kids out of wedlock, targets black feminists. Zuhdi Jasser: Testified before a congressional hearing that if Muslims were allowed religious freedom we would soon have "blue-eyed, blond-haired kids" becoming Muslims, and this would be bad...

Getting a college degree really isn't all that difficult especially on the lower rung universities, you can literally just play civilization and Warcraft and graduate with minimal effort, the fact that Carl of Sad wasn't able to clear that low bar in a place like England where college was cheaper when he was college age really says a lot about how fundamentally dumb he is.

Yeah, as I've said before Carl isn't just dumb in a "bad opinions" way, but he actually comes off as being genuinely stupid in an "ability to reason and solve problems" sense. But a bunch of young Americans hear him and think "so fuckin intellectual man..." because of his accent.
