The Good Old Days....but for whom?

Oh, you didn't? Your words:

"There’s no question Asian Americans are discriminated against in higher education . Not at all in real life."

You white people tell the rest of us every single day when we're allowed to be offended, when we're allowed to feel threatened, and when we're allowed to perceive discrimination. I think it might actually be the largest, foulest stain on American society. It's called white privilege. We put up with it every single day as we continue to dismantle it from the ground up until it collapses.

Don't project and obfuscate and call me a white hater. Deal with your own shit. We've been dealing with yours for centuries. You've just never taken accountability.

Omg! You uttered the dreaded curse, "white privilege"! You're in trouble now! ;)

Of course in Nifty's mind there is no problem with society so long as "those people" know their place and assimilate wholly while downplaying any ethnic/racial aspects of their life. Nope, no problems in France, or Italy, Israel, etc., etc. :rolleyes:

It's amazing how this guy will pull stuff our of his ass to avoid addressing my question.
There is NOTHING in any of my posts that even hints of bigotry or of believing that anybody needs to know his/her place.
I've NEVER felt that way, Taich's perceptions notwithstanding, and I've denied it enough times.

Truth be told, he owes me an apology for suggesting it without cause.

I've merely suggested that homogeneous societies have more solidarity than ethnically diverse ones,

every bit of evidence that I've seen points to that conclusion,

there's absolutely nothing racist about that observation,

but Taich is really not comfortable with the subject.

All he needs to do is admit that much, but it's a reality his system can't seem to tolerate.

Just follow the chronology of the posts, dear readers. Old Nifty just keeps tweaking his assertions in an attempt to divert from my deconstructing his BS. Then he parrots the SOS six ways to Sunday, making new accusations along the way.

Unfortunately, the chronology of the posts will always be the undoing for folk like Nifty, who's fuming that his subliminal bigotry has been spotlighted.

Yes, the title of the this thread fits Nifty all too well. Let's watch him do the usual shuffle dance he's been doing all along. I'll pick this up tomorrow.

If you can't make any sense, stifle.

Projecting at the mirror again, bunky? :rolleyes:

YOU make the statements and assertions, genius. I just show how absurd they are when compared to easily documented historical fact.

Don't you have some kids on your lawn to yell at and make faces?

I don't beat horses. If this horse is dead, it's because Taich refused to feed it by accepting the discussion.

I don't know what the fuck he's talking about in terms of deconstructing my BS.
He can't deconstruct anything by staying light years away from the issues that I've challenged him to discuss.

Subliminal bigotry? He doesn't like the way my subconscious thinks?
Who's the one talking total bullshit?

Does Taich think that he's really making valid points by avoiding the issue's neighborhood
and talking the fashionable drivel that he wants to talk about?

He has defeated me in one way only.
He has not allowed me to yet discern if he's a complete intellectual coward
or is just heartbreakingly stupid.

Is it time to consider both?

You show nothing of the sort. When you start making sense, maybe I'll consider addressing your bullshit. Up to now, you're just an illiterate imbecile.

Even if Taichiliberal were to be actually right about something,

or not going that far,

making a valid point about something,

none of us would know or recognize it

because his English Comp teachers failed him miserably

and his grasp of Aristotelian logic is non-existent.



I'm not a conservative like you, Arby.
I'm a democratic socialist, quite different from you.

Yet, even I would have to agree that Taich seems to be trying to make an art form

out of saying less than nothing with a lot of words

that look to be valid, properly spelled English words

but were never placed quite in that order before.

His grasp of any logic is nonexistent.

Yes, I know we are different in that respect, yet we can discern between apprehension and futile psychobabble.

So the man in your mirror tells you. Pity the objective, rational reader knows differently.

We've done this dance, Nifty. You're just too proud, stubborn and a little bigoted to do anything other than repeat the SOS ad nausea. Well, go right ahead..I'll just watch you fuss and fume like a petulant child. See ya later.

Nifty is a curmudgeon. He's stubborn and grumpy and although he's sometimes right, he's never pleasant.

Isn't it fascinating how he just glosses over the "unofficial" segregation of neighborhoods in Boston? Maybe he was out of town during the riots that ensued when the bussing issue came up? I mean, it was a lame answer to the city/state to enforce decent equal education in all it's school districts, but the peeling back of the racist skin to all of America was a sight to behold.

Of course in Nifty's mind there is no problem with society so long as "those people" know their place and assimilate wholly while downplaying any ethnic/racial aspects of their life. Nope, no problems in France, or Italy, Israel, etc., etc. :rolleyes:

He seems to want you to say that there is no value in diversity. We're doomed to be multicultural and multiracial, so we just have to make the best of it. Because that's clearly how he feels.

Hold the phone, son. In that excerpt I posted, WHERE IS RACE MENTIONED? See, this is what was referenced by the SCOTUS to strike down AA.

So if that "big stretch" regarding legacy, why isn't it a "big stretch" regarding AA?

Fair is fair.

I took race to be mentioned when you stated "So the current filing of suit against legacy students based on race is not so far fetched, given the precedent just set by the SCOTUS."

I'm not an attorney (far from it) but I share your sentiment in that AA and legacy admissions aren't the same when viewed in context of the 14th amendment, because legacy admissions are race neutral on the surface (as opposed to AA). Now admittedly I don't know how the court rules based on disparate impact because at least in its current context legacy admits benefit more white people. But I don't know if that's something the Supreme Court rules on.
