    Those who want social justice simply seek excuse for their hatred and intolerance.
    Justification for the release of their darkest natures. Someone to scapegoat. An evil to legitimately manage their anger upon.

    It was the University of Colorado. I had gotten a scholarship from the state of Colorado for having gotten good grades in high school. I didn't have to pay tuition at any Colorado public college, as long as I kept my GPA above 3.5 (B+) which I easily did.

    A lot of white students fail or drop out.

    I think that anyone who wants to become educated bad enough, will find a way. There are a lot of secondary colleges that are easier to get into. Then, of course, there are always technical book stores.

    Good work on the free ride from Colorado.

    A lot of white students drop out, but, percentage-wise, many more black students do. It is unmentionable but widely noticed.

    Not to sound racist or anything, but tracking from kindergarten on, shows this basic trend. There are Blacks who do very well, but most don't, regardless of economic status or neighborhood.

    In the local hospital, it has a rather aggressive policy towards hiring Blacks. Something about a Black neighborhood being removed to allow for hospital expansion. However, if one looks around, most of the Blacks have janitorial or labor type jobs. You see a lot of Blacks pushing gurneys around. But none in the operating room.

    Really? So telling people they can't go to college because they are white or Asian and score too high on entrance exams isn't a SJW position? Constantly bringing up the gender wage gap myth when its been proven over and over that the lie come from looking at ALL men and ALL women pay when we know damn well that most women go into low paying jobs like child care while men take engineering jobs? This is NOT a conservative talking point, its a reality talking point. SJWs are more likely to be socialist, this makes it very clear they want equality of outcome over equality of opportunity.

    Really? what is "those like me" entail? Do you know me, my background, my opportunities? How do you know I didn't grow up dirt poor with junkie parent(s) who beat me? Could someone like that, white, black, Asian, brown, not get the same opportunity to go to college? Same opportunity to go to the military, cause they certainly got to go to high school. Ben Carson didn't come from a rich family, best damn neuro-surgeon in the world. So please, keep trying to be prejudice towards someone you have no idea who they are, it shows how your side and stance have no merit in the discussion and no basis in reality.

    Straw man. Get a clue of what conservatives object to before start spouting off unfounded ramblings. Conservative are no where near adverse to higher education. Conservatives know you don't need a college education to be middle class, or successful. Cons know you don't get any where with a liberal arts degree, which is what most liberals are taking to make themselves feel smug about their "education". Conservative push for technical schools because not everything needs a doctorate or bachelors degree to be a plumber. Conservatives know there are more ways to be educated than just college, and putting yourself in debt for life for degrees that only matter if you want to turn around and teach in the college world is dumber than taking a long walk on a short pier.
    So you think its better to let a lesser qualified black person into the class than to let an Asian into the class with better scores and a better foundation in the subjects because statistically they will fail anyways? Do you have any numbers on what the admission scores where for the people who failed out?

    This is how it works at Harvard?

    Stats show us that the biggest hindrance of kids is being in a single mother house. No other group falls into the trap of dropping out of school, becoming a criminal, teen pregnancies, than kids who are raised by single mothers. This is true for ALL races in America. Guess which racial group has the highest single parent birth rates of over 70% of kids born today?

    Yes mate. Exactly what the alt right are doing.
    Same crap. Different excuse for it. They don't get a pass and nor do you.

    You are anti white, you are anti black.
    **** off the lot of you.

    Find something to hate, find someone to hate, that isn't here.
    Hate ISIS in Syria.
    Hate the Nazi's long dead.
    Hate on the person in the car in front and not the person in the same car.

    We all have these feelings. Human nature.
    Manage them.

    Kindly REFRAIN from projecting your own shortcomings onto others!

    I abstain from hatred, anger, resentment and other negative emotions because they cause more harm to the person doing the emoting than they ever do to the those that are the object of their anger, hatred, etc, etc.

    This process is called becoming a mature adult with a rational and sensible outlook. Yes, there are those who are the scum of the earth who project their own hatred for others but they don't rise to the level of being deserving of my emotions.

    Instead I reserve my emotional energy for my loved ones and those less fortunate than myself. For them I have an abundance of love, compassion and empathy for their situation since none is wasted on negative emoting.

    Therefore you are WRONG for alleging that "we all have these feelings". Some of us strive to be better than our worst base instincts.

    Perhaps the most ironic projection of all was your vapid "manage them" drivel. Anyone who wallows in their own rage, hatred and anger is doing to the exact opposite of "managing them". Instead they are INDULGING their own base instincts by EMOTING instead of thinking. It has been established that those that EMOTE lose the ability to think clearly and rationally.

    I was going to close with the suggestion that you think about what I have just posted but then it struck me as being a futile comment to make given the content of your post.

    The idea that liberals want equal outcomes is suggested by the fact that they complain that blacks make up 1% of Googles technical staff while they are 13% of the population. I suggest that expresses a desire for equal outcomes. Similarly, liberals complain that black students are suspended proportionally more than white students, again expressing a desire for equal outcomes irregardless of the behavior of the students.

    Once Asians had the gall to actually become successful, then they became the target of the "progressives".

    Actually the details really don't matter. What matters is if what you say and do effects me or not. Everything Republicans do, in office has been to the benefit of the wealthy and powerful at the detriment of everyone else. Unless you are a millionaire, or opposed to abortion, the Republican party does you no good.

    BS. Tax cuts didn't just benefit the wealthy, they benefited everyone, the poor more so cause it was a bigger cut in their percentage of taxes owed. The rich still pay the majority of the income taxes while the bottom 40% of Americans pay nothing. And if you are going into abortions, its a non-starter if you don't believe a freshly conceived baby is endowed with the same human right to life as anyone else whos passed through the birthing canal or C-section.

    I got a degree in physics from a liberal arts college. In terms of colleges, liberal means wide ranging. The original purpose of college was to prepare gentleman to rule over the masses. Thus, their education covers a wide range of subjects. A truck driver may be able to make a good living, support his family, buy a house, put away a nest egg for retirement, but it leaves him in the position of not knowing what he does not know.

    Liberal, as in a liberal serving of potatoes. An abundance. A liberal arts education, is an abundant education on an abundance of subjects.

    And not everyone needs that degree. There are still other ways to become educated, especially in todays society. College is NOT for everyone, that is what conservative believe. And you shouldn't go broke or into huge debt to find that out. Also, just getting the college education doesn't mean you are intelligent either, but so many on the left hold up the degree in lesbian dance study as their ticket to put others down when they think college is more important than experience.

    Yes, as in subjective truth versus objective truth, as in a bachelors of science in engineering is better than a bachelors of bachelors of arts in engineering.

    And you don't project your own hatred on let's say, the alt right.
    The KKK. ISIS. Donald Trump.

    We all do it mate.

    Anger is a human emotion.
    It is part of us. A survival instinct. We all have it. We all feel it.
    We all need an outlet for it.

    I suggest you direct it away from those you love.
    I suggest you direct it away from your own neighbours and countrymen.

    If you think you are a member of the master race and have evolved to longer feel anger and hate. You are wrong.
    Unenlightened.



    Leftyism is the politics of hate. I hate the rich. I hate the racists. and so on.
    I hate the society that benefits others over me. I hate the injustice.
    I am a malcontent. I seek change. Social justice does not preach love. It preaches hate.
    It does not say, I love the white man because of all the good he does. It says I hate him for all the bad he does.

    You are forgetting the underlying purpose of schools. That is to weed people out. To discover who the bright bulbs are. Hundreds of years ago, this was being done. From the beginning of the country, there has been a gentle movement to elevate the best.


    Originally it was designed with the idea of a meritocracy in mind. As opposed to the moneyocracy conservatives seem to prefer.

    That seems a very warped perspective.

    The purpose of schools is twofold. To prepare children for later life. To educate and to socialise them.
    And to give their parents some free time.

    What the hell are you saying now? Conservatives are the primary champions of meritocracy. Are you trying to say now that Cons promote college for financial gain? This last statement is either so far out in left field that there is nothing you can legitimately conflate it with, or you are now contradicting your statement earlier that conservative were against college degrees, but are for it to push money into the schools. For being "educated", you really need to expound on this quip of a sentence that means nothing without context.

    No I am complaining that the failure of Google to employee more than 1% blacks on its technical staff is a demand for equality of outcome. Surely you are not suggesting that Google is turning away young black men and women just because of their race!

    What would count as a demand for equality of outcome, if my examples aren't such demands?

    I think it gets mentioned fairly often. You can easily find graduation rates broken down by race.

    What is usually unmentionable is that black students, underserved by government schools, are invited to attend colleges they are unprepared for and find it difficult to compete...so colleges can meet diversity goals. They might do very well starting in a community college, catching up and then moving on to a state school.

    But I have taught at both levels. I can tell you the CC was deathly afraid of passing students who did not know the material for the first year or two. The state school would simply not accept credits from your CC if you gain that reputation. So classes were small with lots of personal help from professors. In contrast the big state school puts freshmen & sophomores in classes of 150 students lectured by a graduate assistant. That was their "quality filter." Sink or swim for two years and after that they will take some interest in your success.
