I'm really glad the people who call everyone racist who doesn't agree with them are now getting a taste of their own medicine. I should be fighting for their rights, too, but at this point... fuck it.

So you can't stand people calling others racist for not being accepting, but it's OK to stereotype refugees? It's a contradiction.

"Stereotyping" is an excellent scare word to dismiss those who present factual data of average rates of N and tendencies to M across demographic groups.

No, the problem with it is that the people who often like to use Statistics in this way use it selectively. If you want to argue that, I can easily argue that Trump supporters and conservatives are far more likely to be racist. Curiously, those same people will dispute that.

Additionally, stats are subject to bias, and can be manipulated very easily to scare people.

Regardless, it's moronic to just assume someone is bad or evil, and really reflects more on you as a person.
