Under very limited circumstances that might be true for a few individuals. I served in the Navy with (and worked for) a black guy from the south who was a leading seaman, knew the jobs well and had a knack for supervising them. But he simply could not deal with the feetwide exams for promotion to third class petty officer, no matter how hard he studied.
Thinking back, he might have been dyslexic or had some other learning disability, unknown to us at the time. He was eventually given the opportunity to take the exam orally, did very well and got the promotion.
But things like that are on a case by case basis; this article makes it sound like testing at all is discriminatory.
That is the objective of the terminally stupid....
>>this article makes it sound like testing at all is discriminatory.
The reality is that any g-oriented test is going to favor, pretty much in order, Ashkenazi Jews, people of Han Chinese background, and Whites, and not favor Hispanics and Blacks.
You can argue about why that is so, but arguing that is isn’t so is denial of reality. It has nothing to do with any cultural biases in the tests, as the politically correct would have you believe.
While such tests probably shouldn’t be the only criterion for promotion for most jobs, there are plenty of jobs for which it should be an important element. The fact that the politically correct demand this not be so is just further proof that Liberalism is a mental disease. You don’t throw away a key indicator of future success just because you don’t like the results.
