Well latte-da.93henfan wrote:Btw, for anyone following, Starbucks successfully encouraged the store manager to resign. Also, their CEO is headed to Philly today to pacify the negroes.
I'm guessing the manager was a vanilla latte-da. Or a blonde espresso perhaps.CAA Flagship wrote:Well latte-da.93henfan wrote:Btw, for anyone following, Starbucks successfully encouraged the store manager to resign. Also, their CEO is headed to Philly today to pacify the negroes.

Yeah, pissing off Christians is peanuts. They should have stuck to that.Pwns wrote:Remember these cups?93henfan wrote:Btw, for anyone following, Starbucks successfully encouraged the store manager to resign. Also, their CEO is headed to Philly today to pacify the negroes.
That CEO knows he's not dealing with rational people, so naturally he has to make room in his schedule to do that. In the minds of these idiots, one particular Starbucks removed a couple of black guys for perhaps not a good reason and now the whole chain has to die.![]()
Starbucks has now gone from a war on Christmas to a war of "people of cullah".

Cultural diversity makes for bad traffic.kalm wrote:I often describe Cheney and the West Plains area to newcomers as diverse and eclectic. Dry land wheat farmers, college professors, active duty and a high population of retired military, etc. I've never thought about the racial component in using those terms and this area is extremely white, so I agree to a certain extent.
I would also think that racial diversity is accompanied by a diversity of experience and culture which helps to increase diversity of thought.

Race, gender, etc. are a part of an individual's experience but not the total of it.Ibanez wrote:kalm wrote:

I can believe that - but if you're building a team and you use race/gender as the qualifier you will miss out on a lot of quality people. Not saying blacks, women, etc.. .aren't high caliber. But you're limiting yourself.

I didn’t say or imply that they were. I literally don’t care about a person’s race. That’s how it’s supposed to be, right?UNI88 wrote:Race, gender, etc. are a part of an individual's experience but not the total of it.Ibanez wrote:

If you're talking about why Asians do so well that is the favored assumption.kalm wrote:But the differences are cultural rather than genetic, right?JohnStOnge wrote:What I'm about to type really did turn out this way. I didn't force it to. I looked up the latest 12th grade National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) math test. 2015 is the latest. Then I said, "Ok, just to ball park it, I think it's reasonable to say you need to be in the top 10% in math ability to be an Engineer." I did the math and figured that just based on 2015 NAEP math test results you'd expect about 2.3% of that top 10% at math to be Black and about 13.8% would be Asian.
Then I did a quick Google to see percent Engineering degrees by race. The first thing I found is at https://www.asee.org/papers-and-publica ... sPart1.pdf. And it says that in 2014 3.5% of Engineering degrees were earned by Blacks and 13.1% were earned by Asians.
BTW that Asian figure brings up a persistent question: If "White Privilege" is such an impediment to non Whites, why do Asians do so well?
The Engineering degree thing relates to that question because Asians make up 5.7% of the US population but they earn 13.1% of the Engineering bachelors. But there's also things like the fact that the median household income of Asians is higher than that of Whites.
According to the 2016 Census Bureau Table A=1, available at https://www.census.gov/data/tables/2017 ... 0-259.html, the 2016 median household income of Asians was $80,822 while that of Whites was $61,858. If it's so impossible for non Whites to succeed in the fact of "White Privilege," how did that happen?

In the long run, they will win using that strategy. I'm not saying that's a good thing. It would be good if the Republicans weren't off into tinfoil hat territory so that they would have a chance to stop it from happening.93henfan wrote:Yes, yes, yes.
