Study: White liberals dumb themselves down when speaking to minorities

Funny stuff, certainly not surprising:

White liberals dumb themselves down when they speak to black people, a new study contends - The Washington Post

“White liberals may unwittingly draw on negative stereotypes, dumbing themselves down in a likely well-meaning, ‘folksy,’ but ultimately patronizing, attempt to connect with the outgroup,” argues the paper, titled “Self-Presentation in Interracial Settings: The Competence Downshift by White Liberals.”

The findings, based on what the authors stress is “preliminary evidence,” raise difficult questions about aspirations for a so-called post-racial society. The results reveal how subtle forms of discrimination may coincide with progress toward equal treatment, or what the paper identifies as “a significant reduction in the expression of explicit prejudice and endorsement of negative stereotypes.”

The psychologists further discovered that white liberals rarely admit to the goal of appearing less competent, a fact that highlights the role of implicit bias and “the covert nature of the competence downshift strategy.”

“It’s somewhat counterintuitive,” said Dupree, who is the lead author and whose research was supported by the National Science Foundation as well as by Princeton’s Joint Degree Program in Social Policy. “The idea that people who are most well intentioned toward racial minorities, the people actually showing up and wanting to forge these connections, they’re the ones who seem to be drawing on stereotypes to do so.”

Consumed with skin color. STOP LOWERING STANDARDS FOR MINORITIES. Enough already.

Of course they do. They think minorities are too dumb to get picture ID.

Liberals are trying to cover up the fact that their policies don't make any sense.....so they claim they're too smart to be understood?
Where have I heard this excuse before?

Most Liberals have to dumb themselves down to talk to nearly everyone.
Conservatives don’t have that problem.
Did you guys understand that? LOL

Yet you’re too intellectually challenged to recognize that you just admitted to the racism suggested in the study.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

White lefties spend very little time around blacks and believe blacks are inferior and in need of their help. So whenever they’re actually involved with any blacks they treat them like they’re retarded children.

Because poor uneducated white people in Appalachia are so smart, that’s why they don’t even need education.

It seems like I always have to "dumb down" for conservatives. But not for blacks.
