Re:The US Is Seeing a Spike in Anti-Asian Hate Crimes by babesh on Saturday February 13, 2021 @02:28AM (#26122040)
First you presumed that I gentrified those neighborhoods when I did not. Now you fail to address the logic of my point about your contradictory views. Then you shift the goalpost from tech to all powers. Then you presume that I ignore systemic prejudice. Lastly your argument relies on the religion that everything is due to systemic prejudice.

If you were to look at actual facts, the picture is far more complex than your Disneyland view of the world. Go look at achievement rates or ethnic groups by generation from immigration. Go look at who from those ethnic groups immigrated. Go look at education levels of Nigerian-Americans. Go look at effects of poverty and cycles of poverty and how discrimination drove poverty. Go look at the rapidly increasing income of Latinos.

Your argument is strongly reminiscent of the political Disneyland as described in https://waitbutwhy.com/2019/12/political-disney-world.html. Everybody is either all good or all bad. Things are binary.

Good bye. Feel free to live in your own Disneyland.

What do you hope to gain by denigrating my position as lacking "actual facts"? I don't see you having brought much to the table. This is the end of the discussion, for you? You simply call me delusional and walk away? We have to live on this planet, you know.

I suppose the only difference between the two of us is that you're buying a gun with the explicit purpose of killing Black people.
