Today I received an email from my kids school district apologizing for including the book The First Thanksgiving in their elementary curriculum and informing us that they will be removing all the books that contain stereotypical cartoon images of Native Americans.
- and while we're at it we've decided to rename this holiday to more accurately portray history and will henceforth be known as Thankstaking._niko
- you're telling the school is removing not so historically accurate curriculum?pango
- Words are violenceGnash
- yes people only apologize when they're being violent.pango
- Americans wont rest until every image and every mention of Native Americans is deleted from historydrgs
- yes, that's exactly the point.pango
- I dunno that seems fair. You know, on account of Native Americans being all but wiped out.. raped etc.Projectile
- Yes, removing all the cartoons will make up for it. Americans are like compulsive hand washers, but the racism is not coming offdrgs
- After all the genocide and rape. Since removing cartoons that was made to mock them won't make things better. Let's keep mocking them. Sounds about right.pango

War on Asians

https://www.reddit.com/r/azniden…Best high school in America, Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology, is closing down because there are too many Asian students
Since race-blind merit-based admission is based on test results and the tests result do not follow racial correctness, 61% of the students there were Asians. They are moving to admission by lottery, which is basically the same as to close down the brand name of TJHSST.
The main function of premier math-heavy high schools is to prevent children with borderline Asperger from being bullied by their classmates. Tests that require Olympiad-level math skills is the ideal way to gather them all together. If you put random people from the street together with autists and other math-crazy people, the former will beat up the latter, but you can't explain that to the lilac-haired horde.

- it's supposed to serve the entire public it doesn't seem crazy they would reevaluate the admissions process. It sounds like in the end they did not go for theyuekit
- lottery approach...they got rid of the ultra difficult test but will still admit people based on academic merit, not randomly as the article claims.yuekit

https://thenakeddollar.blogspot.…The Dalton School, one of the most prestigious private schools in Manhattan ($54000 tuition per year, obviously most students are white), is experiencing a race meltdown.
Dalton teachers are revolting, and have issued a set of demands to the school:
"The demands for additional staffers alone would add
millions of dollars to Dalton's annual budget. Siphoning
off 50% of donations would dry up funding. Eliminating AP
classes (referred to as "leveled courses") would destroy
college admissions. It's not an exaggeration to say these
demands, if implemented, would destroy Dalton
altogether. According to insiders, much damage has already
been done."The effect of these demands will be completely opposite: money from donations normally go to sponsor black students. Now there will be half as many of them.

Well let’s celebrate the end of one shitshow and herald in the dawn of a new shitshow.

Copy: https://archive.vn/nXjOBTl;dr: White suprematism that emanates from Trump, has infected all races, regardless of their skin color. Infected Americans acquire a toxic racist quality called "multiracial whiteness". The essence of modern white suprematism is this very multiracial whiteness, because most alt-right people are generally black or latino, and the worst white racist terrorist organization Proud Boys is led by Afro-Cuban Enrique Tarrio.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/En…"Multiracial whiteness promises Latino Trump supporters freedom from the politics of diversity and recognition. For voters who see the very act of acknowledging one's racial identity as itself racist, the politics of multiracial whiteness reinforces their desired approach to colorblind individualism."
If a person of any race does not require any special racial privileges for himself, but stands for individualism and equality between people regardless of their skin color -- he is a multiracial white-racist terrorist.
Complete dissolution of all knowledge, logic and thought processes. What is happening in America?

"It was 42F, and the 79-year-old senator from Vermont was cold. Bernie Sanders slumped uncomfortably in his folding chair, coat pulled to chest, hands clad in chunky mittens.

Almost immediately, the feminist backlash began. The Drexel University professor Amelia Hoover Green tweeted: “Ice cold feminist take: I love Bernie, I really do, but sir: emotional labor is not beneath you. Not feeling it? Fucking pretend for one minute, like [most] women do every minute.”

Punches for the Toronto star, their articles are on par with the Toronto sun these days.
Headline:
“Zero Black or Indigenous women are on track for the corner office in a majority of big companies, survey finds”
Study found 89 per cent of the organizations surveyed have zero Black women “in the pipeline to the leadership level, and 91 per cent have zero Indigenous (First Nations, Inuit and Métis) women.”
The Canadian black population is 4% so if half are women then that means 2% but according to the article 11% of corporations have black women in the pipeline so really they are OVER-represented by a factor of 4x same for indigenous women who make up 2.5% of the Canadian population but according to this article make up 9% of these leadership roles.
Am I missing something? It sounds like they are doing ok but the star spins it to make it sound that there are 0% of these women being represented.
- For starters, you’re comparing the percentage of companies with the percentage of people... that doesn’t make any sensenb
- The star has been a silly paper for a while nowGnash
- Nb why should the percentage change population vs companies? So if the population is 50% women it makes sense that the workforce is 50% women too._niko
- So it’s expected that 50% of companies in Canada have a female CEO. Which is great, But the star would say ZERO women CEOs in 50% of companies._niko
- What you’re missing is that it isn’t 11% of companies are black or indigenous. It’s that 11% might have one. They are still very UNDERrepresented.monospaced
- They aren’t giving you the % of non white employees in leadership either. That would be too useful for a fair comparison.monospaced
- Sooo you're not comparing population vs workforce or population vs employees. You're comparing population vs companies.nb
- Some companies have 50,000 employees, others have 3 employees. So 1/50000 or 1/3 constitutes a mark in that 11% category of companies.nb
