'When I use a word,' Humpty O'Bumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean neither more nor less.'
” How does a racially homogeneous country like Japan manage to have high quality education, without the essential ingredient of diversity, for which there is supposedly a “compelling” need? “
Hey Tom, you mean “unity” is our strength, and not “diversity” ?
That's another term, in this situation for judges, that is designed to relieve them from the burden of thinking. Compelling state interest means a majority of Leftist Blackrobes just punted on the Constitutionality of the decision.
I'll give the Professor another one: sustainable. Oh, goody, it's sustainable. Gotta be sustainable. No good at all if it isn't sustainable. *Sustainable*. SUSTAINABLE!! Like a broken leg that lasts for five years is better than one that's only temporary.
Certain enemies of freedom in America have mangled the English language so that it’s becoming unusable for legit debate and discussion.
The Balkans have got plenty of diversity.
Hasn’t done them a darned bit of good.
More words that replace thought - “zero tolerance”.
That means that “thought” is explicitly prohibited.

How can the following be a cornerstone of western civilization - German language, German Composer, German Orchestra, and German Conductor?

Oh, I get it. Jay-Z at the White House is diversity! Wha’s da bitches and hoes?
Now here’s some real diversity. German Composer, German Language - Korean Orchestra and Korean Conductor? And what about those black outfits, black shoes & white ties? What’s with the uniformity? Where are the tattoos, nipple rings, backward baseball caps and butt-crack revealing trousers?

Check out the oboe player at 21:15 and that Korean Baritone coming in at 50:26 in German is simply divine.
Libs/progressives have changed their tune in 100 years time. When they first started rabble-rousing, most of them just wanted everyone to have enough food, shelter, and clothing. Now they insist everyone should have what everyone else has. Asking them to work for what they desire fails to make an impression on them. For progressives, it’s simply not fair that one person has a dollar more than another person. Hence, the phony “wealth gap” argument despite the fact the poor are the fattest group of Americans, and few sleep naked under bridges. It’s never enough for leftists.
Conversely, why does India, one of the most diverse nations on Earth, have a record of intergroup intolerance and lethal violence today that is worse than that in the days of our Jim Crow South?
People who think - like Sowell - are so much more interesting than people who take on ideas as if they were the 'in' clothes of the season...
For “relativism” to be able to “deconstruct” all aspects of a civilization and culture, you must mandate “diversity”, especially calling for multiple objects when previously only one existed or was considered before.
No truth, but truths.
Justice for one is now various justice for the many.
As Sowell points out in his books, Rights of the many always trup real individual right.
If you have citizens born or naturalized, you must also have citizens-illegal.
Only when every category is muddled, when every truth is conflicted, when every field is a vile mess, then the annoited (again in Sowell’s works), those that really CARE, come forward to make our choices for us.
The man is a giant.
