Diversity
15th June 2014
Sarah Hoyt finds that her bullshit detector has gone off.
So instead I decided to follow right up on what Kate was saying yesterday and jump onto “Diversity is our Strength.”
Has anyone ever proven that? I mean in the terms that PC understands diversity that is.
Well, no. The supposed benefits of ‘diversity’ over any other kind of car is asserted but no attempt is ever made to demonstrated it. Like ‘we’re all immigrants’, it’s one of those platitudes that those who see it as self-evident see as self-evident, and everybody else is evil or stupid or both, probably both.
First, it assumes people are widgets. No, seriously. What would the idea that “diversity is having a black person on the team” mean, unless you think the contents of every black person’s head are exactly alike.
And once you realize this is what is at the basis of it, you’ll have trouble not laughing like crazy. Yep. Thomas Sowell, or the black guy next door? Totally the same thing, even though the guy next door is twenty and studying English. He could totally teach economics at any second. Because he’s black, and that’s all that matters.
