One of the best and most accurate things that I’ve read recently.

Well reasoned, logical, and persuasive without being political.
The writer is most positively definitely without a doubt NOT a liberal arts major.
I, as have others, have seen the effcts of liberal non-think in the workplace.
And the libs have left their stench in the obviously non qualified idiots even showing up in the STEM arena.

My spouse is a brilliant woman, MENSA qualified and an an excellent programmer. She is also a published fantasy and SF writer. So, woman can and will continue to make it. And, we know the quota token babies...you reading this, Dorkbama?

Bookmarked for further reading and reflection to be able to synthesize my own thoughts in this same arena. I work at a school so you can imagine the diversity/inclusion/rainbow crap that flows the “diversity council” that is chaired by an assistant superintendent that was a diversity hire a decade ago into a job she couldn’t do then and who has failed upward continually since then.

I had to sit through her diversity presentation yesterday as part of the back-to-school event that happens every August. In order to preserve my job by not running out screaming during the presentation, my mind free-wheeled on such historical items as “e pluribus Unum” and potential math approaches to have a logic-driven discussion. I’m ever so glad to have retirement in my sights in about 3-4 years since I know there is little hope of being able to persuade TPTB on this subject. It may only become a post on FR or a yet-to-be developed blog.

Right Biases

Got that far and moving on...

Larry Summers got tossed from Harvard for that. “In an age of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”

He (I presume it’s a man who wrote this. Is my bias showing?) makes a lot of great points.

The comments after the article look like mostly left-wing emotional whiners and/or those who can’t compete on a level playing field. The article is documented with footnotes. The responses are all about *feelings*.

Yes, there are inherent psychological differences for sure. I discovered this when I was teaching the parts of speech to 4th graders some years ago. Boys did not want to learn definitions of the parts of speech. When I decided to show them on the overhead projector how they could diagram sentences by hanging adjectives off nouns and adverbs off verbs, they loved it! I had at least one diagramming activity a week, in order to keep the boys’ English grades up.

Males are basically builders. Females are basically nurturers.

How much triggering did this cause with the SJWs working at Google? Hopefully lots.

Some of my favorite comments from the link:

"They are not even trying to hide their racism. They used the word ‘race’ 8 times in the document. You know who thinks there are different races of people; colonialists and racists. Humanity is one race, one species, with multiple ethnicities. This person does not see other ethnicities as being the same species as themself."

"If you are referring to another human as a different race you are not seeing them as human."

"The use of ‘race’ . . . is a term still very much used as it was in colonial/slave times to create a separation, an inferior-superior or a ‘you are not like me’ distinction. The term continues to be an unfortunate holdout from those times and helps to perpetuate the separation where there is none except in ethnicity and culture."

A rare sensible comment: "You are the reason discourse is, and has become, nearly impossible to have in any honest sense and you’ll likely try to rationalize that and say that you can’t possibly be part of the problem."

If any intelligent person still thinks it's possible to reason with the Ctrl-Left, it's time for that person to read the comments on any discussion like this. They are fascists, totalitarians, and thugs who celebrate absolute power.

Years ago, while touring a manufacturing plant - they made TV’s, I saw the assembly line consisted of 95% women.

I ask our tour guide (owner of company), if the reason was that women usually had smaller hands and were therefore more agile in wiring up the TV’s ..??

He said, “Exactly”. The spaces for the connections are small, therefore, smaller hands were the only solution.

So, I agree the reason there are all women or all men can usually be something more physically basic than gender.

Great footnote. Bold text by me:

[7] Communism promised to be both morally and economically superior to capitalism, but every attempt became morally corrupt and an economic failure. As it became clear that the working class of the liberal democracies wasn’t going to overthrow their “capitalist oppressors,” the Marxist intellectuals transitioned from class warfare to gender and race politics. The core oppressor-oppressed dynamics remained, but now the oppressor is the “white, straight, cis-gendered patriarchy.”

Brainwashing is the real subject. And the VP is fully washed so to speak. All caused by government social engineering. The message is loud and clear. Be a progressive or progressives will destroy you.
