Diversitiy is our strength?

I think maybe this inbred fellow could stand to use a little more genetic diversity:

We have all heard the phrase, diversity is our strength. This term seems to be originated from those in the US and abroad who seek to promote other races and cultures to mix in their own. However, is it a correct assumption?

When looking at these same voices that preach diversity and tolerance from the loudest roof tops, it is these very same voices that create safe zones and create the fascist PC culture that we see at Google and the US government, etc. In fact, the very existence of the PC culture proves that they do not really believe what they are saying. Instead, they only want to promote certain aspects of diversity that only agree with their own world views and none that conflict with those world views.

Looking at history, mixing cultures and races has not always produced a desirable outcome, that is, for all involved. The European immigration into America is but one example, Those immigrants had no interest in mixing with the native people. They abhorred their culture, religion, and way of life. They were labeled savages and seen as regressive and needed to be exterminated, and they were exterminated.

However, other immigrants that came from abroad seemed to mix just fine in the US once those native people were put aside. So what were the differences that made one example of diversity turn into genocide and the other turn into a success story? I suppose it depends on the differences between the groups is the key. For diverse groups to coexist, there needs to be an underlying set of goals and values that can overcome those differences. The wrong mix can be deadly.

So what are those key values and/or goals that need to be present?

You know, you could have saved us all time by just saying you hate race mixing.

That's an exaggeration, but, then, so is the OP.

Too many people on this forum want to see the world in black and white, either you are are or you aren't, either you're with us or against us. They forget that the world is full of greys, thousands of greys, not just the two choices of one extreme or the other.

Your own avatar attests to a rainbow of colors. Do you actually believe it? Do you think there is room for those who think diversity for its own sake isn't all it's cracked up to be?

The Melting Pot Has Had a Meltdown

Diversity is perversity. Integration leads to disintegration. Prejudice is judicious.

I think diversity is fine as long as everybody is in agreement. But in some cases, diversity is forced on people who don't believe in it or want it. That's when it starts to become trouble.

People of different races can get along fine and live in peace. People of different cultures can't.

When you force two groups of people who act differently, dress differently, have different kinds of names, have different standards, have different ways of living, how could it not be trouble? You are trying to force a hyena and lion to live in the same cage.

Maybe in a hundred years or so, our government will learn this lesson, but for now, they insist that they try and force people together.

What are u talking about ? Example ?

You know. Like those fucking Irish and the Catholics. Totally different culture. It will only lead to disaster for real Americans to let them come here.

Don't forget the Eye-talians!

The word, "diversity" is bullshit, for one thing. It doesn't actually mean diversity, it means non-white, or non-hetero-male. Would a white South African, or a Ukrainian be considered a "diversity" candidate for a job on a college campus? Are you kidding? Never. And yet, those two people would bring a "different" perspective to their roles, which is theoretically the goal of "diversity."

Under some limited circumstances, diversity can be helpful. It is good when a police department includes representatives from the various communities it serves, even if the "standards" have to be relaxed in order to get them on board.

Where excellence is the goal: medical school, an engineering department, STEM faculty in a university, Diversity is the enemy of excellence.

True, you never hear someone say that we need more whiteys in the NBA cuz there are too many black folk.

Because sports tend to be one of the few places with totally objective criteria for its workers .

If you can bang out 3s it doesn't matter what your race is .

By the way , the NBA is the most diverse of all the sports . Players come from all over .

The military is the same way. It doesn't matter what color you are, your gender or who you are fucking, if you can do the job, great. If not, get the the fuck out.

Please . Military is chuck full of politics .

Chock.

I found the officer corps was political as hell. Not so the enlisted.

I've always considered unity to be our strength. Being different doesn't make us strong. Being united despite differences does

It's a strength, not our only one. It's not a new phrase either although it's being used to mean different things nowadays. IMO, part of the reason "We, the People" appreciate diversity is because most of our Founders were Renaissance Men. Men who could see past the Euro fascination with Monarchy and bloodlines where some people were special and all others were "commoners". It's still shocking on some countries for a "royal" to marry a "commoner". In the US we don't even put that shit on our job resumes since we tend to favor merit over bloodline.

Then there's the scientific viewpoint:

How Diversity Makes Us Smarter

• Decades of research by organizational scientists, psychologists, sociologists, economists and demographers show that socially diverse groups (that is, those with a diversity of race, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation) are more innovative than homogeneous groups.
• It seems obvious that a group of people with diverse individual expertise would be better than a homogeneous group at solving complex, nonroutine problems. It is less obvious that social diversity should work in the same way—yet the science shows that it does.
• This is not only because people with different backgrounds bring new information. Simply interacting with individuals who are different forces group members to prepare better, to anticipate alternative viewpoints and to expect that reaching consensus will take effort.

Socially diverse groupings accomplish very little to nothing at all. They are far from innovative. They become vindictive and backbiting. Unless, of course, it is the latest movie or television show. Then the script is written specifically to find innovation in diversity.

The TV snakes purposely put wet-dream Sofia Vergara in a show with a sugar-sweetened Gayist couple. Heteros will watch it to get aroused by her, but at the same time have blended into their sex drive an attractive portrayal of sicko perverts.

I have met Sofia Vergara. She was the neighbor of some business associates. She has the foulest mouth. She would berate the valets the entire time she waited for them to bring her car around. I cannot stand her.

Unity is certainly one of the most important factors in success. Without it is a guarantee of eventual failure.

Is acceptance of people's differences part of unity?

Diversity is what makes us strong!!!!!

Yea....................um.............................................................no.

E pluribus unum means "out of many, one" meaning unity not diversity.

That said, diversity is certainly a strength but it's more important to be united.

Not always. Compatibility is a factor in success. Sometimes those differences are so vast that they cannot coexist.

Because sports tend to be one of the few places with totally objective criteria for its workers .

Please . Military is chuck full of politics .

Awesome. Please fill me in with the background of your expertise in both sports and our military.

Well I did pitch in the little league all stars . And every person I've ever know who was in the military said the same .
