that's why im making an hypothetical
OK
Let's just say they were true
Why would we speak in hypotheticals...
Would you still agree with Affirmative action
Yes
Why
Assuming the premises are true
Because it'd aid in providing extra knowledge to those who otherwise would be a burden on the system
and would allow them to function in society.
But you are stopping people with more potential achieve better
Make more classrooms
or more universities.
Then you're not advocating for affirmative action
I am, I'm advocating for the advantaging of certain groups of people on a political basis.
Because they have a disadvantage in society
Right?
I'm saying black people will have to go through things irrespective of their IQ's, in which, would make it harder for them to make it through school
and as such, I'd use the admissions process as a means of equalization due to this.
They're not really
As mean as it sounds, it would just mean they're dumbed and can't achieve as much
You can have IQ be genetic and still recognize that black people are treated unfairly.
How
No I actually wouldn't be for affirmative action if "black people" were factually inferior mentally. Because its not other race's fault for their genetic inferiority. However, all of that is bullshit because black people, if black people are defined by the color of their skin and not their ethnic background or dna, have no evidence supporting their mental inferiority.
A low IQ white person wouldn't be disenfranchised as much as a low IQ black person
This is unfair treatment
As such, you'd work to equalize it
How
Affirmative action is simply the recognition of unfair treatment
Racism?
Its not dealing with race and IQ
Mmh
this is true.
Racism typically isn't justified on the basis of IQ, just them being outside of their out group
Affirmative action overlooks context in my observation.
Well let me try to explain my point of view
We concluded that black people are being treated unfairly by society because of the following reasons
They are as intelligent as other races
but for some reason, statistically they don't achieve near as much as other races
We didn't conclude this
