    You are not even making sense.
    Swap minorities with white people.

    White is a color. Minorities can be many colors, female, LGBTQ, and any other group.

    Correct, targeting minorities is not racist. Some minorities are of the category race. But AA is not race based. You know this, you just can't accept that.

    No, white rightists associate monkey with black people. That's why they often used the word.

    You certainly don't have a problem just making things up.
    Quite the list without any backup to that list.

    And you will never prove the color black is the reason.

    I did nothing of the sort. I gave you the freedom to associate "silly monkey" with whomever you wish. If you choose to assign race that was your decision, not mine. I choose to assign stupid, like a monkey.

    The color white is the reason. White leftists that think they can save the minority, which is stupid. Only the minorities can save themselves, they are perfectly capable. But instead of helping the leftist creates an us versus them mentality mixed with a whole lot of vicimhood. Minorities aren't victims just because they are in the minority. But the leftist promises the minority free junk and benefits attached, you know, to make them dependent.

    That's fine, you are choosing the feigning of ignorance as society has seen a rise in race hate crimes, segregation and social divide!

    Sweet!

    Right, which is how come you can provide an example where diversity was "X" and the benefits were "Y" but now we added this amount diversity and the benefits increased this amount.

    I'm not asking you to write the thing, just point at an example if you can. Business or social, your choice.

    Yes, it shows, non diverse countries have more crime than the diverse USA.
    We are not even in the top 10

    See your initial claim about diversity and crime.
    I showed you and so did Ronstar tell you, diversity alone is not a reason for crime.

    Hate crimes been around for a long time. Rates have gone up and down over the years.
    2021 was almost as high as the rate in 2008. Most of the hate crimes are geared towards blacks.

    ...
    There were 7,759 reported hate crimes in the U.S. last year — the most in 12 years, the FBI reported this week. But some experts and advocacy groups say the true number is probably even higher.

    The number of recorded bias incidents reported by the FBI was the highest since 2008, when 7,783 hate crimes were reported to the agency, federal data shows.

    The spike in 2020 follows a recent upward trend in bias incidents, and it was a 6% increase over 2019.

    National Security
    FBI Report: Bias-Motivated Killings At Record High Amid Nationwide Rise In Hate Crime

    Nearly two of every three hate crimes reported last year — 64% — were motivated by a bias against race, ethnicity or ancestry, the FBI said. Of all hate crimes, 36% were anti-Black or anti-African-American, 10% were anti-white and 9% were anti-Jewish.

    And once again, the moment you define a group to help based on race...you now have a racist policy. If you define the group based on religion or sexuality...no. Not racist. You can help poor or disadvantaged people. That's not racist. But we know which group gets punished/held back or excluded...and we know why. Thus making the policy...racist!

    Hope that clears things up.

    DariyAir, how many minority groups can you think of?

    The reason I ask is that all the minority groups you can think of have essentially been assigned to a tribe, just as the majority has. This is to keep score on the geivience pyramid. The problem is that all people are members of more than one group. This is why the leftist philosophers, in all their wisdom, came up with the idea called "intersectionality".

    The problem with intersectionality is that it's just another tool for tribes to fight over on the grievence pyramid with every various tribe fighting to get to the top. It's all a load of bullsxxx because each person belongs to so many different groups that the founders of this country had already reduced intersectionallity to the Individual. But the leftists don't know the history.

    So instead of E Pluribus Unum with all individuals on equal footing, we got warring tribes with tremendous diversity.

    Yes. I would argue that the diversity of thought is brought about by diversity in origin.

    You are being racist toward the groups the policy targets to give an advantage, because you feel that group is inadequate or inferior to stand on their own merits. And you are descriminating against the group you are punishing by not including them in you policies.

    Isn't that a daisy?

    Absolutely. Otherwise you wouldn't have policies specifically design to give anyone non white an advantage over whites.

    You feel they need this advantage because they can't do it on their own.

    Lol

    Diversity makes life interesting, allows for the spreading of ideas, experiencing of different cultures, learning new things and just makes life better, if everyone was the same life would be boring. Just look at the high rate of suicide and unhappiness in homogeneous Japan vs say European countries which have embraced each others differences.

    What about Sweden? Very homogenous, single culture that allows private firearms ownership, and low crime rates.

    It's a socialist paradise, with a tax rate of about 70% of income. High happiness index, as if such a thing can be accurately measured.

    But here is the thing - You can move to Sweden but you will never be Swedish. You will always be an outsider. However anyone can move to America and become an American so long as they desire Liberty and get naturalized.

    Yeah I do.

    Did you locate a study showing diversity was this, we added this much more diversity, and here is the measured improvement? Not a one huh?
