I am spiking from 1-5k ping, intermittently so i can't get in

@actual_communist_boi My favorite ACB mannerism is ... when he think's he right he does a little scoff/cough @Methode And then just assumes you should know you're in the wrong

That fucking mannerism is... so bad

The difference is in real life someone can legitimately cave your fucking face in

If you spout repulsive shit

But meh

I'm unironically in agreeance with JBP that interactions with real humans always has a threat of violence

Non online interactions, but that's why I'm a neet

Living is too hard

@Methode I wouldn't pull that because 14% is a octaroon, to me. Yes

i was actually in outspace thinking about what being 1/4 black would entail if you dogmatically went on the IQ evidence

1 standard deviation of difference, .25% black = .25% SD lower, in theory. If you were to just meme face value. So I was doing face value math

100-85=15 *75 so

About 4 points of IQ reduction, if you were to just meme and commit

Ultimately though. I don't even think 4 points of IQ is really meaningful though

I doubt I could tell the difference between a human with 85 IQ and 115, frankly

Well... I think I could correctly guess, better than chance

But not likely better than 55-65%

Of the VC chat:
There are systemic reasons for disparate impact on all demographics (blacks and whites)
However, there's more impact on blacks
The aforementioned is the intended normative meaning of systemic racism

So there can be systemic racism against white people. It's just rarer. And it's usually just saying "Fuck off, poor fuck. you get no loan"

All this demonstrates is that everyone feels discriminated against. Or that many people feel alienated

```A significant majority of Republican voters, 75 percent, said that white Americans are subject to discrimination. Most independents, 55 percent, agreed.```

Yeah, this is surveying

People's feelings are important though

@Methode You're jumping the horn of "normies feeligns don't matter"

This is a very bad horn to grab

People feel alienated -- > need to make people feel included

That's the strong rhetoric or optimistic rhetoric if you ask me

And I"m even the cynic

People are dumb fucks

I hate this person

```A 2017 poll commissioned by NPR found that 55 percent of white adults believed that the racial group experiences societal bias. Only 19 percent of white respondents said that they had personally been discriminated against, however.```

I approach every discussion from a trivial place, so that I don't have to engage with his feels and anecdotes

But I'm glad I effectively muted him immediately

A feeling that your group experiencing discrimination demonstrates, to me, that there's deep concern about it ...
Literally leads you to the white anxiety conclusion

this whole convo is a <:sadbread:663617147209252874>

I just can't engage LARPers. I can't do it

@Methode It could. If you think the pie is set

If you set the population level to 100. And you say "I want there to be more diversity" (You are by proxy saying I want less whites)

But this gets at his faulty presupposition
