Re: Racism and Elite Prep Schools

well i fail to see how you can remain "elite" if you're discriminating based on color. but that's my value judgment on what is elite. of course, elite schools were exposed during the scandal, and now that covid is here, maybe are again being questioned for value. i don't have a solution f...

Re: Racism and Elite Prep Schools

My question is, How does XYZ reconcile fighting racism, which is heavily correlated with class-ism, and working towards creating a non-divided nation, with XYZ continuing to be "an elite high school"? if the question is how to combat racism, i think we shouldnt use the problem to solve th...

Re: Conservatives and Liberals

https://i.imgur.com/Ra89Ijp.png Well one group has historically enslaved the other for ~250 years in North America, then kept the other group from being fully equal for ~150 years after. That's not including the murders, lynchings and more. So while it may be true, on the other hand you're safer be...

Re: Race in America - Riots Explode in Minneapolis

Is it racist to stand for the national anthem (if it's not now, it won't be long before it is...that is, before it's no longer our national anthem)? NO! There are some dimwits who will think it is, they are wrong. They are as wrong as the dimwits who think not standing is unpatriotic. The action or...

Re: Race in America - Riots Explode in Minneapolis

What a country. And the dems are doing so well with it. Minneapolis Police informed residents of the city’s embattled 3rd Precinct to prepare for the giving up of their personal belongings to potential robbers and advised them to do as criminals say for their own safety. According to a July 28 emai...

Re: Race in America - Riots Explode in Minneapolis

while i agree with that, it is focused on the past. going forward, the labels don't serve a purpose other than the nefarious. if lebanese are white (are they?)(they claim they are!), and you cannot be racist against whites, then the answer to Doc's question is no. not racist. OR, is it that racism m...
