1.The bottom line is Democrats lie about everything.
Eric Holder famously claimed he was Barack Obama’s ‘wingman.’
Dictionary.com: “a man who helps, protects, or guides a friend or associate”
CNN: “Holder: U.S. a 'nation of cowards' on race discussions
"We have to have the guts to be honest with each other,"
Holder says Eric Holder is the nation's first black attorney general
Holder urged Americans to use Black History Month to have national conversation
Holder: U.S. a 'nation of cowards' on race discussions”
Nothing could provide greater proof that Democrats lie about everything. Any honest discussion on race is the furthest thing from Democrat desire.
2. A national discussion about race is the furthest thing from the wishes of Democrats, who do everything possible to hide the reality and advance lies about race such as ‘systemic racism,’ and ‘white privilege,’ and ‘white supremacy,’ none of which exist.
Try to discuss the facts, and you will be attacked as a ‘racist,’ and be ‘cancelled’ or silenced.
And that brings me to a truly brave individual, Charles Murray, and his newest book, “Facing Reality.”
3. “I DECIDED TO WRITE this book in the summer of 2020 because of my dismay at the disconnect between the rhetoric about “systemic racism” and the facts. By facts, I mean what Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan meant: “Everyone is entitled to his own opinion but not to his own facts.”
What follows is a data-driven discussion of realities that make America a more complicated and much less racist nation than its radical critics describe. Of the many facts about race that are ignored, two above all, long since documented beyond reasonable doubt, must be brought into the open and incorporated into the way we think about why American society is the way it is and what can be done through public policy to improve it.
4.The first is that American Whites, Blacks, Latinos, and Asians, as groups, have different means and distributions of cognitive ability.
The second is that American Whites, Blacks, Latinos, and Asians, as groups, have different rates of violent crime.
Allegations of systemic racism in policing, education, and the workplace cannot be assessed without dealing with the reality of group differences. There is a reason that reality is ignored. The two facts make people excruciatingly uncomfortable. To raise them is to be considered a racist and hateful person.”
Charles Murray, “Facing Reality.”
5. The responses to this thread will place one either in the category of brave, willing to consider the facts, and either state why they are evident, or to refute them in an intelligent and/or scholarly way.
Of course the usual vituperation is to be expected from those who have been trained never to question what their party authorizes.
They are not the brave.
