Cuz it’s vulnerable to confounding variables
well then you're throwing out all of sociology and physiology
because those fields always work in some amount of grey area
we can't know for certain what's going on in other people's heads
we can only test for how they act in the world
To a reasonable degree then
Yeah I think a point can be made with that urban culture is discriminated against
its imprecise science, but its science
But there is a fairly big chance it was athebpoverty thing more than the race thing
If they ran this study with Clyde as the name we could compare and see
That would be interesting
Also unconscious biases is not the same thing as systemic racism
I think we can all agree here that the study is not a study about racial discrimination
But cultural discrimination
yes, but even if it is entirely the poverty thing, then we still need to contend with the fact that black people are so disproportionately in poverty that their stereotypical black names have become associate with it
do you understand how that's almost no better
That isn’t true though dude
Again Washington and Jefferson
I have personally never met a black person with either of those names
I don’t care
i have met
I think your failing to understand my point
They are. It’s been documented
Ditto
just because there are exceptions to the rule, doesn't mean there isn'
t a rule
That would be true if there wasn’t another potential rule with less exceptions: poverty
ok, but did you read what I wrote about that being hardly any better?
Yes
black people are more likely to be named tyrone. black people are more likely to be in poverty. the black people named tyrone are more likely to be in the ghetto. Now anyone named tyrone (disproportionately black people) gets judged for the name because it is associated with poverty because \as a large contributing factor black people are disproportionately in property.
If we have bias against the impoverished that’s bad
and black people are more likely to be impoverished
which effects stereotypically black names
And White people makes Clyde or more likely to be impoverished too
Does that mean discriminations against Clyde is racist?
which effects all black people
But people aren’t biased towards the impoverished because of there race but because of there social class
The fact there happens to be a racial correlation with poverty doesn’t mean the discrimination was due to race
how do you know that @T2the2ndpowr You know it is based 0% on race or that people aren't using race a shortcut to infer poverty? How do you know that?
I don’t
