Social MIT becomes first elite university to eliminate diversity statements

[Lucas1980]

I find "racist" to be a very weak insult since it's been overused so much it's practically worthless. But i guess some people hate being called it. i think i know what mod you mean.

The word "Racism" has no meaning anymore....the liberal Boys Cried Wolf way to many times and diluted it completely.

Why did he leave?

Pretty sure he still lurks from time to time. I PM'd him to check in a while back and he got back to me fairly quickly.

The man liked every single post in the 2016 election night thread. That must count for something. It’s the most impressive feat I’ve ever seen on Sherdog.

He also had an impressive flip on Covid. Staunch “this is the plague” to “just the flu”.

that was probably somebody else running that account then.

There are ....thing where you will not like to experience with specialists hired cos quotas about diversity to do their job.
For example surgeon who will do your OP...or accountant / bookkeeper. You will beg for best quality you might get and will not look on gender, colour or religion etc thus specialist does have.
Especially if your life will be at risk not only wealth, like with surgeon or ppl working in ER in hospital. Or for your business in order to deal with revenue service....
I think that enrolling and hiring in some cases should be done only on real merit and tests basis.

The issue is when you have two people with equal qualifications but exclude one person because of, for example, a particular sounding name, or the person's skin colour, or where they're from, or their gender, all of which have happened.

No sane person is suggesting hiring minorities with inadequate qualifications over other fully qualified people of any sort no matter what the job. And the only reason people think that might happen is conservative fear mongering. It's dumb.

This is exactly what they are saying and doing and have done and you're right it is Dumb indeed.... Keep your head in the sand where it belongs.

Show me proof, if you can.

 

[Fox by the Sea]

Show me proof, if you can.

You're literally in a thread about hiring practices where competence was NOT the first demand for a job.

You're seriously the dumbest person posting in the war room at the moment. like, it's not even close. it's almost miraculous how stupid you are.

Show me data which indicates unqualified people were hired. There is no evidence the hired candidates qualifications were inadequate in the OP or elsewhere ITT. You literally made that up. The OP is entirely about so-called diversity statements and their discontinuation, dummy.

First you have to show me data which indicates you're not a 80IQ person, so i don't waste my time.
Cause all evidence indicates you're borderline retarded IRL.

So, you accuse me of a bunch of bullshit, just like in the thread I started, but you provide no rebuttal because you haven't got one. You're hilariously gotten to. Keep following me around and making dumb comments though. It's totally not pathetic at all.

you're 60 and senile.
when people make fun of you around here it's not because they're "gotten to". it's because you're a fucking senile moron who writes some of the dumbest posts in war room history.

you're suffering from the dumb sickness - you can't see it, but everyone around you can.

You should keep following me around and spewing this garbage. It's a great look.

you're the one in my thread, buddy. by your logic, you're the one following me as well.
christ, it's like talking to a retarded 12 year old.
you're now being made fun of in two separate threads that i know of.

but all threads you're in turn into a "mock andy" threads eventually. this is like a law of sherdog - There's a direct correlation between the number of 80IQ andy posts in a thread and the likelihood said thread turns into a "mock andy" thread.

you should stop posting and start counting marbles or looking at yogurt reviews or whatever it is 80IQs like you do.

you're the one in my head, buddy.

FTFY

You're never gonna get a response, only deflections. These are paid agitators whose only job is derail threads and conversations.

At least I sure as hell hope these neckbeard losers get paid.

All this excessive rambling…to say nothing. lol
I’ll make it easier for you since your tiny little brains make it so difficult to process things
when you talk about "the left" vs "the right" when it comes to science literacy and how informed their views are (or aren't) on current or evolving scientific study.
you have to separate left-wing politicians from "people identifying as left-leaning" but you cant
with the gop and their loonie base (you are a good example) because they agree on almost everything. Theres a reason why you didnt call out the Kremlin suck-doll mtg for her Jewish space lasers thing.


Are there "left-leaning" people who are anti-science or hold stupid / cooky views? yes. rare tho.

Is there a single left-leaning politician, let alone a sizable political faction or force, that peddles legislation or government action based on any of the above? No. Zilch. Nada.

That was my point. If you're a person and claim to be pro-science and you support the GOP/Trump you're.... either lying about your beliefs, or you're incredibly stupid.

Just keep calling everything fake and stop pretending you care about science.

Jeez, just as a third party with no horse in the race you really are an idiot. Almost a troll. Your points are refuted by several posters and you just keep going. The left gets a bad rep because of people like you.

"Just as useless third party who will help trump win by not voting for Biden because both side
are equally bad. but im not a trumpster tho"
This is what happens when you’re a coward and don’t stand for anything.
I'v seen some of the brain rot you post, and I think you should just ditch the cowardish 'third party' cop-out and pick Trump's side already. ur just a right winger who don’t want the label.

The diversity statements are in their essence an ideological pledge. "We might disagree on X and Y, but we all agree in [insert dominant ideology] above all." In the Middle Ages you had to plead fealty to the church, the king, the pope, even if you didn't believe in them. At some point people were forced to pledge fealty to communism or fascism and their heads, depending on where they were born. Now you have to pledge your allegiance to the Diversity and Equity™ altar before you're even allowed in.
