What the .... Do you think racism is? It's not "all or nothing", and neither is White priveledge meant to be "every single white gets this and every single black gets the other".

Comparing salaries is a always a messy business. It needs to take into account other working conditions (it's easy to pay teachers more if you make them do more face to face hours or increase class sizes, but that knocks down the quality of the teaching and learning), the median salary, the...

You can play that game for any example of "racism" because racism is not a reaction to anything real. It's a reaction to a whole heap of illusiory ideas bouncing around in people's heads.

And there's certainly a strong element of access here. But it's also that what happens in prison is about power, not about sexual attraction at all. If it were that there were lots more homosexuals in the church then the general population, we'd expect to see that in the figures for...

Missing the point, by pretending the statement: "Israel having nuclear weapons is bad" is the same as "Israel is as bad as Iran". The whole point of nuclear non-proliferation is that we don't want anyone to have them, not because any one country is likely to use them, but because each country...

How many times does it need to be said: race is not a real thing. Racism is.

So are people in prison, but prison rape is still not about homosexuality. What happened in the church is not almost well functioning relationships except one party was slightly underage . It's rape or rape-like in nature, about relationships of power through sexual abuse.

That will depend on where you are, and it won't be an all or nothing thing. You'll find here that an Eastern European background will fare slightly worse than an Anglo or Italian one, but a lot better than a middle eastern, Burmese or Chinese one. And then when you get to the interview...

Are you serious? "Race" isn't something real at all. It's a vague set of ideas in people's heads, that connects a whole lot of stuff, half of it completely imaginary. In people's heads, names and ethnic appearance correlate. Holmes, Sociolinguistics, 2013 The OP question is what is meant...

Poorer families, in general, are not well educated themselves, and are therefore not in a position to educate their kids themselves.

If homosexual means what it normally means - adults attracted to other adults of the same sex - then that doesn't follow.

Just a reminder: the conversation is not intrinsically about the United States. The people can, of course, amend the constitution. Unless that is somehow a god.

What it failed from isn't the issue. If taxation is inherently theft, so you cease to have any taxation you then cease to have any government. That's not how Somalia got to where t is, but Somalia is where you'll get if you follow the logic through.

Some people have claimed that all taxation is theft.

Ultimately, in a democracy, consensus of the community (which is not identical to a simple majority) is how we try to resolve disagreement, yes.

Why do people who want to eliminate taxation and government think they will get utopia not Somalia?

A good deal of the point is that class/wealth and perceived race (remembering that race isn't a real thing anyway) are heavily connected. You're missing the point - it's not a language barrier. It's simply the name on the appliction. Identical applications get an interview more often if the...

It creates "jihadis". If you've been denied hope all your life, and then watched innocent members of your family killed in "retaliation", it fuels the hate and encourages you to join the struggle.

Clearly it isn't discouraging anyone.
