The vast majority of complaints about racism in America are the result of differing outcomes in a free market. At the individual level, America is about as free and equal as any nation that has ever existed, arguably more so than any that has ever existed. At the group level however, genetics, culture or some unknown factors drive variances between peoples. This is logical if you consider two groups, white and black. Now assume whites like playing baseball, hockey and basketball in that order of preference, and blacks like playing basketball, baseball and hockey in that order of preference. Even if we ignore how strongly they prefer each of these sports, logically you would predict the professional basketball league would have more blacks than in the general population and hockey more whites. If there are more blacks in say the basketball league, there will be proportionally less in other sports simply because the black athletes are in the NBA. The smaller the minority group and the stronger its preferences, talents or what have you, the more likely they will produce some lopsided effect at the group level, even if an individual black who is great at hockey has no obstacles to playing professional hockey, and vice versa for a white basketball player.
Be it genetics or culture, there are persistent trends in European ethnic groups alone. The difference between America before 1965 and after 1965 is that the disparity between European ethnic cohorts was smaller than the disparity between global cohorts. As America becomes more diverse, it ipso facto becomes less equal if you're measuring at the group level because introducing more groups and more distant groups at that, will naturally produce more divergent outcomes.
This slide from the article below is one of the best examples.
The article goes on to explain that when data scientists control for factors such as cognitive ability, the disparities disappear. Talent is not evenly distributed among people. Some families have a lot of doctors, some a lot of lawyers, some a lot of athletes and so on. In America, if you have the talent and desire to become a doctor, you can become a doctor. No one will stop you. At the individual level, the U.S. is truly the land of opportunity and that should be celebrated. Instead, people who do not understand diversity or cannot handle actual diversity, actual diverse outcomes (ironically the people who scream loudest for diversity...) and alowed to destroy critical American foundations such as public education, law and justice in the name of "anti-racism."
Families are related. In small nation, say Denmark, most of the population is fairly related, that is they are all extended family members once you go back several generations into the past. When you move these "families," what are also called nations, into a single political and economic unit, it produces similar divergences you will see if you hop on a plane and travel to Denmark, then Beijing, then New Dehli. A single political unit such as the United States can shave off some of the variety and homogenize the people to an extent, maybe they're all eating at the same McDonald's, but it cannot erase hundreds of years of selective mating and cultural development.
Zach's Newsletter: Exposing the group disparities = discrimination fallacy
By using group level inequality to justify individual discrimination, the reality in America is white and Asian males are probably the two most discriminated groups in the country. This is already producing a backlash with increased prevalence of white identity movements and white nationalism. It is awakening (another irony of the Woke) a shared white identity that didn't exist in the "non-diverse" America that was filled with French, Dutch, Germans, Italians, Polish, Irish....in many towns children learned their ethnicity's language at the school for their ethnic group, they attended a church that catered to their ethnic group. Towns would have a Polish, Italian, French, Irish and Spanish Catholic church, the numbers and specifics depending on the local populations. People couldn't easily tell your ethnicity by looking at you, but they could tell as soon as you told them your name. In some ways, pre-1965 America, certainly pre-1945 America, was far more diverse in the literal sense of the word. Mass communications and public education, along with a major assimilation effort and a near ban on immigration, produced a more homogenous society by the 1960s. Right when America might have celebrated its success, or rather perhaps when it thought too highly of its ability to integrate diverse populatons, it decided to destroy the ethnic, religious and cultural homogeneity of the population in favor of diversity. Well, actually it didn't. When the 1965 immigration act was debated, its proponents said it wouldn't change the demographics of the nation that had produced the largest middle class in the world, a free and democratic society.
The American government (USG), schools, corporations and other institutions that pursue diversity initiatives on the basis of racial proportions in the general population are creating a racial Bed of Procrustes, lopping off talents because their group is overrepresented, while stretching mediocore talents into positions beyond their ability. It is a pernicious ideology, an inversion of Nazism. It's adherents are spreading a vile lie straight from the depths of Hell, a Satanic message of hate that is inverted into moral superiority and seemingly a surface message of love and tolerance, making it difficult to stamp out in a nation that has abandoned God. It is impossible to predict the future, but I'm rather certain that America will either turn back to Christianity or it will break apart, perhaps into racialized and ethnic states (consider racial voting patterns), be it peacefully, chaotic or violent. I do not see an easy way to unbrainwash the Woke masses who have been programmed to see racism in everything for their entire life. What you're seeing in the streets of America and in the corporate boardrooms is the result of people 30 years-old rising into positions of power. They were fed are far less evil message 20 years ago and 10 years ago. Violent mobs burning down cities now, peopel are being taught to hate themselves because of their race now, what is coming in 20 years? Whatever is coming, America's Apocalypto approaches.
