Facts are a real buzzkill for trendy leftist theories
American Thinker ^ | 9 May, 2021 | Bob Kingsley

Posted on 05/09/2021 7:02:03 AM PDT by MtnClimber

When one finds facts offensive, then the truth must be offensive as well.

The U.S. population is more or less evenly split between men and women, yet 90% of those incarcerated are men, according to FBI crime statistics. Nearly 75% of NBA players are black, while 97% of professional golfers are white. From these facts, it is reasonable to conclude that men commit more crime than women, blacks are better at basketball than whites, and whites are better at golf than blacks. This isn't sexist or racist; these are observable facts reinforced by reality and observable in the world around us.

The lunacy of the left argues that prisons and professional sports are inherently racist because their numbers fail to match the demographic distribution of men and women or blacks and whites in society. Leftists don't seek equal opportunity for all; they seek equal outcomes regardless of talents, choices, and ambitions. Leftists don't seek the level playing field they claim; instead, they want a scheme to fix the game and dictate the score.

Asians SAT scores are the highest of any race, blacks the lowest. Blacks are on food stamps at a rate of 27.9%. It's 7.6% for Asians. Black unemployment is 9.7%. For Asians, 5.6%. As a group, Asians are better educated, more employable, and less likely to be on welfare than are blacks. Again, facts.

Blacks kill each other at a rate ten times higher than they die at the hands of the police.

Over 90% of black homicides are committed by black men. Black men are about 6% of the population, yet they commit over 50% of all murders and robberies and represent over five times the prison population of whites.

Blacks are better at putting bigger balls through bigger holes.

Whites are better at putting smaller balls through smaller holes.

This is something that most people have a hard time wrapping their heads around. The moral framework of the average socialist/globalist is so tied to their ideology that they HAVE to ignore reality in order to maintain it.

Facts are stubborn things, and they don’t care about your feelings.

In part there are more whites for the habitual criminal underclass to shoot at.

Just consider that while gang bangers of all sorts — as an example of habitual criminals — may mostly make their neighbors lives miserable and unsafe almost like it’s their mission in life as they commit crimes ... and those will tend to be of the same race ... for them to have opportunity or motivation to strike out at others beyond those easily within reach may require more than just them being criminals.

For black habitual criminals this “more” is easily provided by current efforts out of more than a century of race grievance hustling, keeping them angrier and less happy that they probably would otherwise be.

So despite tending to be, as most gang bangers seem to fall into being, complete morons who make where they and their families live as crappy as possible it may be that black gang bangers have this non-intellectual cause for lashing out at white people that any proverbially equally nitwit white gangs lack with respect to the black people living nearby ... who to them may be just another potential victim and nothing more.

FWIW, and it’s worth a lot.

Facts no longer matter to the Leftist.

This is best described by;

KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov’s warning to America

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bX3EZCVj2XA

It’s no longer something that might happen.

It has already happened.

Watch the video.

You can skip to 5:00 in if you have a short attention span.

No amount of evidence will convince a idiot

The lunacy of the left proves it.

“Everyone is an individual and I think they should be treated as individuals too.“

Exactly!
God made us all.
The black on black crime is horrendous and doesn’t have to be.
We need more policing and not have the government subsidize black households without fathers.

Liberals profit from having people divided against each other.

I'm sure I saw this a long time ago.

But I watched it again just now. I laughed when he mentioned Walter Mondale. (If he only knew!)

Tiger Woods is not black, unless you categorize by skin coloration. He described himself as a Comblination. Like a large majority of Americans, we are a comblination of races, nationalities and talents.

My roots are German/Russian/Scot/Brit/Dutch/Irish. I wouldn’t doubt there is an African in there too, but I refuse to do the DNA testing. My Scottish ancestry had land in the vicinity of Virginia-Kentucky. It is likely they had slaves, or at least dealings with those who had them. If there are reparations, do I pay because of my heritage? Or do I get paid because of my heritage?

The US Constitution was written to protect the minority of ONE. He or she is the smallest minority possible. To write laws otherwise, is to set one above the other.

"He described himself as a Comblination."

Although I like "Comblination" as a portmanteau, Tiger calls himself "Cablinasian".

"A term Tiger Woods himself made up. It is a portmanteau of Caucasian, Black, American-Indian, and Asian, which is his ethnic make-up of a quarter Chinese, a quarter Thai, a quarter Black, an eighth Native American and an eighth Dutch. Tiger Woods is Cablinasian"

However he put it, he meant to defuse being a “black messiah”. He simply always wanted to play golf at a high level, and enjoy the libertine sexual society we live in.

I would criticize, but it seems to me he is better than a lot of high profile athletes, and I don’t know his heart.
