    Rufo has found 25 PUBLIC school districts so far using the CRT book "Not My Idea"

    Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ on Twitter: "Here is the full list of public school districts that are teaching "Not My Idea," which traffics in the noxious principles of race essentialism, collective guilt, and anti-whiteness. Sign up for my newsletter to learn more: https://t.co/rBln8Elceq https://t.co/yYuBVALWUv" / Twitter

    As well, the Department of Education sent to ALL school districts a link to The Abolitionist Teaching Network. material pushing CRT within guidance for opening up schools after COVID closures.

    And that is literally just ONE example of CRT-type concepts being smuggled into public schools. Just ONE example out of many.

    Thus the term "PUBLIC schools" in contrast to those funded privately.

    There is no reason why they can't control their own destiny.

    Who says more black than white former players don't want to work in management or coaching?
    I will be happy to explain if you establish blacks are less interested in coaching or management.

    Democrats say they're incapable of doing so.

    I don't know of any.

    Look at all the references in which I mention you and in which right wingers disagree with you. Apparently they do understand that IQ tests DO NOT measure intelligence. And I can assure you nobody on the left or the center does. So looks like you're on your own here.

    And you said before that you disagreed, and then you said you agreed, and now you disagree again...

    Why don't we start by you making up your mind? I'll ask one more time "what is racial disparity" to you? What causes it? Because you said that's what IQ (and similar) tests measure. Or did you change your mind about that too?

    If you are lost in this debate, then you can just ask, or step away. If you are lost (and I have a feeling that you are) but do neither, you are wasting our time.

    So you haven't read up on the subject. Typical.

    No he doesnt. Your little drama where you pretend he does, doesnt change that fact.

    An intelligence quotient (IQ) is a total score derived from a set of standardized tests or subtests designed to assess human intelligence.

    You will need to take that up with the poster I was responding to there. Looks like you have a disagreement.

    So you think that posting a definition of a term means that what it describes is real?

    Wow! Let's see where using your "logic" can lead us to...

    fly·ing sau·cer
    /ˈˌflīiNG ˈsôsər/
    noun
    1. a disk-shaped flying craft supposedly piloted by aliens; a UFO.
      "a theory that friendly aliens in a flying saucer had landed in the village"

    Oh oh! Looks like your (quote unquote) "logic" (or lack thereof) has made an astounding discovery.

    Can you please stop with the ridiculous arguments? I am only looking for a serious discussion.

    Their existence doesnt require your knowledge of them.

    "Any racial inequality in outcome".

    Which parts dont you understand?

    It does require that, if you claim they exist, you prove it. If you can't do that, can you at least quote a reputable scientist in the field (psychology) today that supports your claim that white people are more intelligent than black people. Preferably one that is not a white supremacist, if at all possible.

    So again you AGREE (hopefully you won't change again) with CRT in that the the outcome of IQ tests is determined, not by intelligence, but by their outcome. IQ tests are based on circular reasoning and, for that reason, are completely useless to determine intelligence differences between diverse ethnic groups.

    This is from a real SAT test

    [​IMG]

    53% of whites chose the correct answer, C. Against only 22% of blacks. But, of course, it is much more likely that you would know that a "regatta" refers to a boat competition if you watched the Olympic games or have seen or participated in one. That is far less likely among the poor population which is mostly composed of blacks. It has NOTHING to do with intelligence.

    Not entirely true. They measure intelligence, but culture and environment also have an influence.

    "Any racial inequality in outcome".

    Been my position from the beginning and has never changed. Perhaps you are confused again.


    Like I said, you can dispute the accuracy of IQ tests ability to measure intelligence. Which is irrelevant to my point and doesnt change the fact that black dont do as well as whites and whites dont do as well as Asians on IQ and most standardized tests. They also dont do as well on standardized math test consisting of nothing more than math equations to be solved, so CRT labels such testing as systemic racism, when in fact the disparity has nothing to do with racism. Women of all races dont do as well as men of all races on standardized math testing. Has as much to do with sexism as the the differences among the races has to do with racism. Nothing at all.

    And then there is the real world where there are MORE whites in poverty than blacks. You dwell in an alternate reality of your own imagination. Or are a racist with racist views about blacks.

    My post lays waste to the claim that CRT isn't taught in public schools. That's just ONE example.

    No, that's what two ex-NFL players told me. They were on the other end, of course - third string. They didn't make millions and weren't considered for coaching or managing anything other than high school.

    It is what it is.

    My post simply showed facts. If you're too sensitive for facts, I suggest the My Little Pony forums or something similar.
