Peterson's 12 Rules For Life, have you heard of this?

[The Grand Nudger]

Nope.

We were talking about income disparity.  You say it's due to institutional racism.  I suggested some ways of releasing black prisoners from prison, and ways to generate enough money to pay for increases in minimum wage, which would impact poor black people more than rich whites.

That's a plan.

I suggested that if some of the IQ difference in blacks comes down to health issues-- poor nutrition, disease due to parental drug use, etc. we should address those problems aggressively.  I said that any IQ improvements due to such programs would likely increase productivity, meaning the investment would pay for itself.

That's a plan.


Think I'm a racist? 

I actually thought that you were a decent person who'd unwittingly ingested the common alt right talking points through guys like peterson.  You decided that you were a racist.  So stop whining at me about it.

Fine.  Think "we need to improve productivity" is codeword for "niggerz be lazee."  Fine. 

Think addressing health issues is meant to be a substitute for combating racism in the workplace?  Fine.  I think you're fucking dumb for any of these positions, but fine.

You think many silly things.

I will literally give you ANY point you want.  And then, I will ask you the same thing-- what, other than name-calling and blaming, would you actually DO to improve anything?  How would you STOP the racism?  By shouting me down in an atheist forum?  Really?  That's the best you've got?

Come on, dude.  Let's talk solutions, here.

There will never be a point at which there's any requirement that I be able to solve racism with a swoosh of my digital pen.  You are being silly.  I'd say that the end of racial myths and enforced inequality is a good start, though. I'd say that the refusal to entertain bullshit complaints of white victimization as a response to both of those things is a necessary endeavor to that end.

The world isn't going to end on account of pc or sj. You aren't going to be strung up in a tree. You get that...right? That's my only goal in this thread, anyway. To one day get it through your skull that somebody's been scaring the living shit out of you for very silly reasons.
