Another Flawed Study To Show How Evil The White Person Is.

[WHO IS SERAFIN]

If these progressive liberals feel so guilty about there race status wish they would keep the lies to themselves and just go forth and be guilty.

Another Think Progress Dummy



I know, I know. My hobby is ridiculous. Reading lefty sites and reporting on their idiocy is like reporting yesterday’s weather. I just can’t help it.

This particular moron is named BRYCE COVERT. (Bryce is ostensibly a woman.)

Bryce Covert is the Economic Policy Editor for ThinkProgress. She was previously editor of the Roosevelt Institute’s Next New Deal blog and a senior communications officer. She is also a contributor for The Nation and was previously a contributor for ForbesWoman. Her writing has appeared on The New York Times, The New York Daily News, The Nation, The Atlantic, The American Prospect, and others. She is also a board member of WAM!NYC, the New York Chapter of Women.
.

What has Bryce, the lefty with the lofty resume’, done?

She reported about a study that was conducted that was intended to prove how black people are discriminated against. The eggheaded researchers put ads on Craig’s List selling an iPOD. They had various pictures of the seller’s hands and tracked the success ratio of sales.

Think Progress –

Black sellers got 13 percent fewer responses to their ads than white sellers overall. When they did get responses, they got 17 percent fewer offers. Then the offers were 2 to 4 percent lower, or $1.87 less on average than those made to white sellers. The researchers also found that buyers were less respectful and more distrustful with black sellers. About 7 percent fewer people signed their names when responding to a black person. They were 44 percent less likely to accept delivery by mail and 56 percent more likely to be concerned about paying long distance, such as through PayPal, both of which include a bit more risk than an in-person hand off.

!snip!

Now, I’m no editor of the Roosevelt Institute’s Next New Deal blog, so don’t judge me if I get this next part wrong. I’m an idiot, she’s smaught. She’s nuanced, I’m a Neanderthal. She’s quick. I’m sluggish.

Where in this “study” have the researchers controlled who the respondents to the ads were? Where is the data that these were white people?

Now, if you reread the entire article (which I am not linking) you’ll see that the researchers do not say that this study was intended to prove how racist whitey is. It was intended to show that black people face a racial bias in commerce. These concepts are exclusive of one another. It was this crunt who used the study to indict whites. Here is the money shot from her article. It’s the last line –

But most of the bias that black people face today is subtle, not manifesting in outright hostility but in white people giving favorable treatment to those who look like them.

I repeat, where in this study do the researchers show the color of the people responding to the ads? They don’t. And the rude people, the chiselers and the distrusting people could have been ALL BLACK! We don’t know.

But the progressive knows, doesn’t she.

Jerk.

But the white folks are all slaveowners, why else would they be out killing the polar bears?

 

[+paradox]

so the white people haven't done anything bad or evil?

if you think not than you're delusional, both of you...

The problem isn't that white people are bad. It's that many people of all races refuse to or are ignorant/blind to the fact that racism still exists in many ways, institutionally and systemically. What happens because of that is people turn a blind eye to it, and claim that it is "perceived" or blown out of proportion. Granted, it has gotten a lot better in the last half century. There is still a very long way to go before race isn't a contributing factor toward many discriminations.

And we said that where?

Yes in no way do I believe it is some systemic problem. But I do believe in one form or another it will always exist like murder.

Racism is still issue as is sexism. If you're a white male, you cannot be a victim of either.

Doesn't matter at all.

Welcome back J.

REALLY!?!?!?!?!? That is just silly to say it can't and does not happen.

Yeah, Justice, where did it say that above?

I think you missed the sarcasm in my statement. But what I was getting at is, no one bats an eyelid if someone of non-white ethnicity calls someone "white trash" or says something along the lines of "there’s no way you as a white person can understand" while on the subject of race. But if a white person even makes the most casual of remarks. they'll be shot down straight away for being racist. Therefore in the general scope of society making white people immune from ever being racially abused. I find it to be a total double standard. What is worse when someone makes it about race when it clearly wasn't. In fact some will now consider me to be racist for pointing this out - and that is the problem.

Racism is wrong. We all have to live on this planet, we should treat each other with respect.

My apologies I did miss the sarcasm but get it now.
