“Lots of people, including many middle class Blacks, have exactly that opportunity. Why do you suppose it isn’t happening? “
I’d guess because the math requirements are tough.
My son is finishing Calculus 3 at community college. Once he transfers to a four year college, he’ll be doing Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, and Differential Equations. I am sorry to say I don’t even know what that stuff is.
Just to get the CS degree. I think they require levels of Physics, too.
Liberalism is a mental illness. It is racist, deceiptful, mean and stupid. Silicon Valley’s techies and CEO’s are Liberals. It’s fine with me if their mad dog bites them after they have fed it. I hope it tears them limb from limb. Maybe they will learn about liberalism and then run to Austin for safety.
What was obvious about that post is why some people might label you a racist. There’s nothing politically correct in what I said, nothing hopey-changey, just normal truth. maybe if you weren’t so insistent on saying completely idiotic things you’d be able to see that, but it seems very important to you that some race not be good at math, don’t know why, but I do know whatever the reason is it’s completely stupid and you should feel shame, but you’re not smart enough to.
It’s a near certainty I’m smarter than you. It’s not what I want, it’s what is. I never said anything, at least anything serious, about a whole race. The inconvenient truth is IQ tests are valid, reliable, and not biased. It’s also fact they are the best predictors we have of job performance in any job that requires high level cognitive functioning. It’s also fact most African-Americans don’t do very well on them. I don’t know what to do about it, echoing a college professor I had 40 years ago. I do know affirmative action is not, and never was, the answer. You don’t combat racism with state sponsored and enforced racism. All you do then is create contempt for and anger towards the “privileged” race and the government discriminationg in it’s favor. Sorry you got all butthurt about it. The truth is frequently inconvenient.
Oh look more insults and stupidity. None of which relates to what I actually said. this is how we know you have an issue, you keep going off on these runs of ridiculous lies for now reasons. Go away now, I don’t hang out with loser scum bags with racial agendas of lies.
The only insults I see are from you. Apparently you have reading comprehension issues. I’m not going on tangents but to the root of the problem. You are demonstrating it. As for “loser”, I’m happily married, successful, and well respected by my peers so that one really doesn’t bother me. I’d also bet my net worth significantly exceeds yours. Shame your telling me to go away matters not a whit to me isn’t it?
