Race Realists posted:Speaking completely subjective here, I just feel theres this sort of weird fetization with the past in Contemporary American media. It's not just the media, how many times have you heard "The 50s were great because union membership was high and the rich were taxed 90%"? Hell, how many times have you heard "The 60s & 70s were great when people actually protested before they got sold out by <corporate interest here> with the Great Satan Reagan". computer parts fucked around with this message at 17:34 on Jul 20, 2015 |

Weldon Pemberton posted:Another factor that I believe is relevant is how many of these individuals have STEM backgrounds. They are interested in quantitative data, not qualitative data. For them, statistics about black people's average IQ or crime rates compared to white people are more or less absolute, and appeals to reasons other than "it's biological" fall on deaf ears. The fact that black IQ has been rising since the inception of records (and is rising more quickly lately) and that violent crime has fallen dramatically across all racial groups is also irrelevant. They are used to a field of inquiry where unambiguous material facts can be discovered, so they apply this to other fields and expect social facts to be objective rather than historically and culturally located. People using data that fits their beliefs and ignoring the rest of it isn't a STEM thing.

Ogmius815 posted:I mean like, I live in New York and don't have money so I've lived in some lovely neighborhoods. I'm pretty sure that at this very moment I'm sitting in the poorest congressional district in the United States. I've never been mugged and I can think of exactly two times in the last seven years since I moved here that I've felt even remotely threatened which probably happens that many times in that span to everyone regardless of where they lived. What neighborhood are these people living in that's so frightening? I don't get it. Is that the Jewish one, or were they just one of the poorest cities in New York?
