High GPA, Lower Than Expected Standardized Test Score Students

Many colleges are now dropping standardized tests. Having been around many, many high GPA, lower than expected test score students, I'll offer some small sample thoughts. For brevity, I'll refer to these students as GPAers.

GPAers tend to be hard working memorizers. On the plus side, they seldom sink into lifestyles of nihilism or detached irony. But they struggle with difficult abstract ideas, often frustrated, eventually deciding the abstract ideas must be worthless. When struggling, they demand test retakes or extra credit opportunities. They get angry at teachers when students they regard as inferior understand subjects better than themselves.

Many GPAers avoid classes with difficult abstract ideas, which is good. A top National Honor Society student from my high school was in my modern physics class. Modern physics is an easy class--no differential equations or other difficult math. She withdrew from the class in utter confusion, costing her time and money. GPAers sometimes become valedictorians without taking any available advanced placement classes.

GPAers trend toward opportunism and conformity. They reject ideas outside popular Overton windows. They place great value on formal secondary education for themselves and their children--while higher test score, lower GPA students often regard secondary education classes as sick jokes, massive time sinks.

In the work force, many GPAers realize their limits. But other GPAers, often in positions of power, resort to insipid slogans and agreement with evil above them.

Good ethics is abstract and complex. Evil is easy. While most courses at colleges shouldn't exist, there are some beneficial subjects that require high IQs, along with hard work. Thus, standardized test scores should continue to be used when weighing college applications.

Multicultural Contradictions, Part XIX

  1. Older whites sometimes say, "I don't care. I'm not gonna be around much longer," about multicultural mass destruction, while at the same time caring about trivial partisan wedge issues.
  2. Multicultural media tell us Hispanics don't commit more crime than whites, using predictably false self-reports from Hispanic criminals.
  3. The fervor of Antifas. For what? Being useful tools of corporations Antifas despise? Being massively, relentlessly wrong?
  4. Multicultural feminism cares mostly about promoting Marxism and glass ceiling issues, not helping ordinary women, often ignoring or suppressing news about rapes or beatings or murders when Muslims or people of color commit them.
  5. The self-described reality based community would not let you know that George Floyd died from a drug overdose.
  6. Whites disproportionately die in the wars created by multiculturalists, but multiculturalists pretend the deaths are disproportionately American blacks. "In the Korean War, 80 percent of military deaths were white; 8.4 percent were African-American. In Vietnam the military death ratio was 85.6 percent white to 12.4 percent black. In the first Gulf War it was 76.3 percent white compared to 17.2 percent black; in Afghanistan (Operation Enduring Freedom), 85 percent white compared to 8 percent black; and in Operation Iraqi Freedom through 2014, the military death ratio was 82 percent white to 10 percent black."
  7. Multiculturalists operate as if their believing something and frequently repeating it makes it true but ridicule others for doing the same nonsense.
  8. Multiculturalists praise unity, meaning everyone conforming to do the evil things multiculturalists support, while blasting conformity among outgroups.

Multicultural Contradictions, Part XVIII

  1. Even award winning, super excellent special education teachers fail to turn cognitively impaired students into mediocre students.
  2. "All religions share the same basic truths." Nope.
  3. Greedy, egalitarian university administrators ruling over extremely unequal institutions.
  4. Affirmative action often puts students in educational situations beyond student competence, leading to anxiety, frustration, depression, dropping out, and unpaid college debts. Or plummeting educational standards. Or both.
  5. So-called egalitarians make harsh moral judgments based on ethically irrelevant looks, height, clothing, and hair styles.
  6. Millions of multicultural whites walk around thinking they didn't get a decent job because others were better qualified, never realizing that affirmative action and HR multiculturalism played major roles.
  7. Someone with severe cognitive impairments gets compassion and paternalistic protections from the state. Someone with mild impairments in IQ and conscientiousness gets exploited by powerful groups and insulted for their lack of success.
  8. Most multiculturalists seem unaware that the greatest inequalities exist between the healthy and the unhealthy, not race.
  9. Multicultural elites habitually suck up to people with more money or power than themselves and punch down at people with less money or power than themselves while mouthing egalitarian platitudes.
  10. Multicultural public policies are often based on lotteries, tribalism or bribing the right officials, not the so-called new meritarianism of multiculturalism.
  11. Multiculturalism pressures individuals into becoming real world method actors, willing to adopt or feign allegiance to whatever rotten idea multiculturalists concoct next, raising numerous ethical questions: Do these method actors fake it until they make it? Do they become less able to experience cognitive dissonance? Do they become more Machiavellian? Do they develop mental illnesses?

Multicultural Contradictions, Part XVII

  1. Integrated prisons.
  2. Media show images of Muslims praying to suggest how pious and fantastic Muslims are. Media fail to discover that Muslim prayers are often daydream sessions about torturing and murdering outgroups.
  3. No go zones.
  4. Some multiculturalists believe most humans have the brains to get math or physics degrees if they work hard and have good teachers, never realizing that 400 level math and physics classes are more difficult than any subject they imagine, far more difficult than easy classes like calculus II.
  5. Polls suggest adults believe various formal schooling activities have huge positive effects on IQ, that formal schooling turns low IQ individuals into geniuses, so where are these billions of geniuses among us after the massive amount of formal schooling that occured in the past few generations?
  6. Some multicultural HBDers believe HBD revolutionized their ways of thinking, yet such HBDers often support the same old plutocratic, anti-white, neoconservative politicians.
  7. Allegedly meritocratic multicultural elites fail their way upward as long as they avoid acts that offend the wrong interest groups.
  8. Oprah, Dr. Phil, and pop psychology.
  9. Some parents sacrifice most of their waking hours acting on their mistaken beliefs in the powers of nurture assumptions and helicopter parenting, only to see their children turn out horrible thanks to rotten genes and atrocious mass cultures. Others believe their helicopter parenting deserves credit for their children turning out well when good genes and isolation from mass cultures were more important causes.
  10. Phone calls to incompetent government phone agents.
  11. Karl Rove.
  12. Every daily newspaper.
  13. Research suggests job interviews are worthless for picking good employees. Research suggests civil service exams are half-way decent at picking good employees. Governments ditch civil service exams.

Minipedia, Part XVI

  1. Multiculturalism makes it nearly impossible for multiculturalists to have good character because multiculturalism has a multitude of ever worse groupthink loyalty tests. One failure to pass a loyalty test often results in severe punishments. The changing orthodoxy will punish someone for something they did years ago that was acceptable to multiculturalists then. Walking on eggshells on behalf of totalitarianism is no way for ethical beings to live. Multiculturalists incite counter movements with their own strict, totalitarian groupthink demands.
  2. Block busting.
  3. Nurture assumptions and helicopter parenting for status purposes by supposedly egalitarian parents.
  4. Historians and policy experts who treat themselves as truth tellers when they  dismiss good evidence from ethics, psychometrics, behavioral genetics, and physical anthropology.
  5. Coercive busing of students.
  6. Red pill pick up artists view themselves as seers of unseen facts. But their willingness to face facts does not include multiculturalism and much else beyond sexual hedonism.
  7. Neoconservatives have few "humanitarian" interests in between advocating for unethical wars and anti-white migrations. The alleged humanitarianism turns on for anti-white purposes, then off for things that would require sacrifices by themselves.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part XV

  1. Parents claim they want the best or good things for their children or all children. If they put their actions where their mouths are, they would get sperm or eggs or both from high IQ, high character individuals. Imagine the greatness of societies where doing so would be normalcy--and at comparatively little cost.
  2. Harmful, misplaced altruism gets praised by multiculturalists. Harmful egoism also gets praised by multiculturalists.
  3. Jihad and sharia supporting multiculturalists slur critics of Islam as American Taliban.
  4. Multiculturalists accuse others of pseudo contradictions while ignoring multicultural self-contradictions. For example, multiculturalists accuse others of having compassion for Rotherham victims while not having compassion for more numerous Afghan civilians. But there is no contradiction. Nearly all Afghan citizens above early childhood are evil. Ninety-nine percent of Afghans polled tell pollsters they support sharia. It is also no contradiction for multiculturalists to feel compassion for their dogs but not for Charles Manson. In addition, there will be a deluge of Rotherhams in the future if the migration and law enforcement policies that create Rotherhams are not reversed early and often. Saying that we owe others because we belong to the same arbitrarily defined species or common humanity is a genetic fallacy, also known as an origins fallacy. Moral duties to porpoises are often greater than those to unethical humans.
  5. Lyndon Johnson.
  6. The use of an undemocratic kritarchy to harm whites, supposedly on behalf of democracy.
  7. Multiculturalists accuse Westerners of not exploring the points of view of non-Westerners. This is sometimes true. But many, if not most, Western foreign policy catastrophes result from Westerners thoughtlessly adopting the beliefs of non-white interest groups in the West.
  8. The Bush clan.
  9. Mass destructive groups dominating US mass media.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part XIV

  1. Pulitzer Prize winning Brett Stephens demanded Americans be deported and replaced with migrants because he asserts Americans "are the stagnant pool in which our national prospects drowning." Also: migrants are less likely to be in prison but he doesn't mention that most prisoners are blacks, browns, and descendants of recent black and brown migrants. Nor does he mention the ease with which migrants can commit crimes and slip back across borders without being incarcerated or the fact that individuals in high migrant areas seldom report crimes committed.
  2. Libel tourism.
  3. Alleged humanitarian interventionists habitually pick sides in evil versus evil conflicts, producing disastrous results: Taliban versus boy raping heroin merchants, China versus Soviets, Soviets versus Mujahedeen, Sadam versus Iran, Sadam versus Kuwaitis and Saudis, Moamar versus Libyan tribes, China versus Uighurs, Somali tribes versus Somali tribes, Saudis versus Yemenis, Jihad Spring versus dictators, etc. The fairly consistent trend: alleged humanitarians act on behalf of profiteering finance, mass media, defense contractors, and certain Southwest Asian nations, not ethical reasoning. Humanitarian interventionists, also known as neoconservatives, seldom help the better side in other conflicts.
  4. Non-whites come to Western countries for freedoms. Non-whites use their new freedoms to destroy whites' freedoms.
  5. The idea that Japan just wanted a co-prosperity sphere was massively upvoted by the Reddit moral experts.
  6. Whites attached to their beloved belief systems import migrants eager to annihilate those belief systems.
  7. The Koch Brothers.
  8. Whites who had nothing to do with Hitlerian Germany allegedly must be punished for Hitlerism, including whites massively harmed by Nazi Germany. But multiculturalists fail to notice the millions of tribal conflicts done by their ancestors, including  especially grizzly slavery and torture.
  9. George Soros.
  10. Multiculturalists treat the alleged right of evil people to breed as the most absolute right. For their occasional sexual pleasure, we must upend schools, families, economies, civilizations, neighborhoods, the environment, and billions of lives. To top it off, multiculturalists treat evil people as morally superior.
  11. Highly improbable dystopian futures pre-occupy science fiction. Yet the things that create real dystopian futures receive little attention in science fiction.
  12. Multiculturalists pretend to be defenders of democracy while using totalitarian force to crush real democracy, including banning the most popular political party in Belgium.
  13. Alt-lite multiculturalists treat politics as entertainment while trying to pass themselves off as moral experts.

Wednesday, September 15, 2021

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part XIII

  1. Multicultural neoconservatives demand several hundred million Americans risk dying in a war to save Taiwan from Chinese rule. Taiwan spends roughly two percent of its GDP on defense and that has created a computer chip monopoly, all while the incompetent, careerist, money wasting US defense establishment has no idea how many nuclear weapons China has.
  2. Whites wanting to be left alone from mass destructive diversity get slurred as white supremacists. Non-whites exerting totalitarian rule over other races get labeled centrists and moderates.
  3. Affirmative action policies target whites for fewer jobs but not races with greater incomes and IQs than whites, even when adjusted for local cost of living.
  4. Government entities count non-white Hispanic, North African, and Southwest Asian criminals as white to make the white crime rate look higher while counting those groups as non-white for other purposes.
  5. The United Nations.
  6. "Sweden to expel 6-year-old orphan to Ukraine while granting amnesty to 9,000 Afghans"
  7. Thought leader science researchers search for drugs, magnets, and other technologies to eliminate thought crimes in the "public interest."
  8. "UK Lord asks if mosques will be monitored for 'hate speech,' is threatened with hate speech prosecution for asking."
  9. New laws punish Westerners for criticizing or boycotting foreign countries.
  10. "Straight-A students are being turned away from British medical schools and forced to pay for training in Eastern Europe, while the National Health Service (NHS) plunders the Third World for already-trained doctors instead."
  11. The Southern Poverty Law Center
  12. American politicians treat Saudi Arabia as if it were their first or second favorite nation. But "Official US Gov’t Documentation Confirms That Saudi Gov’t. Funds Al Qaeda" 
  13. Multiculturalists get livid if someone mentions whites have higher IQs than blacks, not livid if someone mentions other groups have higher IQs than whites and blacks.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part XII

  1. Moral truths get labeled "hate" crimes. Being part of a rape gang that targets white children, drugs them, insults them for their race, not considered hate crimes.
  2. Whites wanting to be left alone labeled r-slur. Whites existing labeled r-slur. Non-whites working to exploit, subjugate, and exterminate whites not labeled r-slur.
  3. Bakeries are legally required to design cakes that go against their values. Big corporations are free to censor ethical truths that go against their values and legally required to do so in Europe and other places.
  4. Multiculturalists were outraged that Colin Kaepernick was blacklisted from the NFL because of his poorly reasoned political beliefs. Also multiculturalists: willing to fire or not hire anyone who tells a political truth they don't want to hear. 
  5. Bill O'Reilly demonized a white teenager on national TV for not inviting blacks to his party. How many gatherings has Bill O'Reilly attended that did not include blacks?
  6. Multiculturalists are enraged by any proposal to rescue whites from South Africa, but not outraged by current refugee policies that favor non-whites over whites and Muslims over Christians. Or previous refugee policies that favored Soviet Jews over other Soviets.
  7. Anti-white and pro BLM tech companies hire few blacks.
  8. "Writers like Max Boot ’92MA, Eliot Cohen, Jennifer Rubin, James Kirchick ’06, Bret Stephens, Cathy Young, and Bill Kristol have resisted the pressures of tribalism at a moment when few dare to leave their partisan tents."
  9. Media get frequently indignant that migrant criminals get separated from their criminal children, but are seldom concerned that citizen criminals are separated from their children. Or more important: that military parents get separated from their children to fight self-destructive wars--often permanently.
  10. Multicultural futurists.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part XI

  1. The NAACP issued a travel warning for blacks to avoid the dangerous whites in Missouri. Blacks in Missouri are dozens of times more likely to commit unprovoked interracial stranger-on-stranger violent crimes than whites.
  2. The ADL, a group whose behavior seems indicative of anti-white hate, helps decide which speech is "hate" and should be censored.
  3. "Yelling ‘I hate white people’ and punching one isn’t a hate crime, Canadian judge rules"
  4. The Pope supports migration, except into wealthy, heavily defended Vatican City.
  5. Multicultural pro-aggression videos are not censored. Truth telling is censored.
  6. Multiculturalists, including Muslims, commit the overwhelming majority of terrorism. What does the Facebook guide for Muslims label harmful content: "Islamophobia, anti-Muslim hatred, far right extremism and terrorist inspired violent extremist content"
  7. Proximity, plus diversity, plus interactions cause harmful conflicts. Facebook justifies itself because of "connecting" people for those three purposes.
  8. Rational, ethical fear of Muslims smeared with the Islamophobe slur.
  9. Turkey is still a part of NATO despite invading Northern Cyprus, expelling Greeks, and threatening to invade mainland Greece.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part X

  1. "Migrants who 'fled war' use welfare to holiday in homelands"
  2. The multicultural, self-anointed controllers of disinformation, spread rampant disinformation themselves.
  3. The Associated Press style guide.
  4. Multicultural search engines put the extremely anti-reason Rationalwiki, and its collection of straw person claims and irrelevant ad hominem attacks, at the top of many search results.
  5. Multiculturalists consider separation of church and state sacred, except when it comes to Islam.
  6. Multicultural counter-jihadists promote racial diversity, including migration by races having behavior worse than Malay Muslims.
  7. Mass media hunt for small sample poster children to represent the piousness and innocence of non-white races while also hunting for small misbehaviors by whites to allegedly represent how evil whites are.
  8. Multicultural billionaires have bunkers to escape multicultural or nuclear war dystopias the billionaires work to create.
  9. Only forty-seven percent of self-identified Democrats and seventy-six percent of self-identified Republicans polled believe "Christians are mistreated in the Islamic world."
  10. "When Christians flee as refugees they cannot go to UN-run refugee camps because there they face the same persecution and terror from which they fled." So why are the Muslims in those camps considered innocent refugees rather than as potential totalitarian invaders?
  11. Most media calling other media fake news are themselves publishers of fallacy dominated news.

Wednesday, September 8, 2021

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part IX

  1. "Most Americans say the declining share of White people in the U.S. is neither good nor bad," yet most Whites and Northeast Asians flee Arab, Black, and Hispanic majority neighborhoods. Many White flighters think it is good for the white population to decline. Non-whites work to demonize and eliminate whites while at the same time seeking to live in white majority neighborhoods.
  2. Multicultural ruling classes promote crime knowing the victims will not be themselves, but disproportionately non-wealthy individuals.
  3. Wealthy multicultural ruling classes form their opinions of working class individuals based on  fictional works their fellow elites create, not representative samples of living humans.
  4. Multiculturalists recite, thank you for your service, to veterans despite the fact the veterans were primarily serving the perceived interests of finance, Southwest Asian nations, ratings seeking media, and globalist defense contractors.
  5. Multiculturalists destroy ethical sources of purpose, leaving individuals bored and alienated, seeking purpose in hedonism, nihilism, and demonizing whites.
  6. The more multiculturalism increases, the more privacy claims get viewed as disposable privileges.
  7. In multicultural societies, big lies get repeated more often and become more accepted: systemic racism, white supremacy, mostly peaceful protests, serial killers are disproportionately white males, etc.
  8. Disparate impact policies.
  9. Multiculturalists treat societies with no whites as the ideal, but when whites self-segregate to avoid massive harms from non-whites, that is considered some great evil. But schools with black or Arab Muslim majorities are little more than concentration day camps for white children unlucky enough to be forced into attending those schools.
  10. Multiculturalists encourage racial diversity but destroy philosophical diversity. Most tolerate only five ideologies: Islam, Marxism, neoconservatism, libertarianism, and New Democratism.
  11. Multicultural neoconservatives promote flooding the West with Chinese spies and pro-China industrial policies while at the same promoting war with China. 
  12. Multicultural atheists excoriate religions for being faith based while having faith based beliefs in multiculturalism.

Tuesday, September 7, 2021

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part VIII

  1. Reciprocal altruism increases when groups are more alike. Tit-for-tat increases when groups are less alike.
  2. Brain environment preoccupied multiculturalists label critics of multicultural cultures as genetic determinists.
  3. Every politician who embraces integration or segregation rather than universal self-determination.
  4. Multiculturalists expect good results from races genetically and culturally unlikely to experience cognitive dissonance and notice contradictions, except in their perceived enemies.
  5. Multiculturalists regard non-white minorities as off limits to criticism because of their weakness in numbers. But whites are less than ten percent of the population on a planet where billions are indoctrinated with anti-white fallacies, including most whites.
  6. Multiculturalism has a selection effect for individuals inclined toward power trips, are hostile toward the non-wealthy individuals they rule over, causing multiculturalists to care little about inciting wars.
  7. Individuals in multicultural societies are more likely to support ingroup gangs than competent governance.
  8. Fictional characters should be analyzed for having character traits that should be avoided or emulated. In multicultural societies, fictional characters become rhetorical weapons to demonize races.
  9. Races predisposed to high self-esteem and dominance seeking are not races predisposed to decent governance, let alone good governance.
  10. The "soft bigotry of low expectations" applies most of all to the abysmal standards leaders are held to in multicultural societies.
  11. Multiculturalism leads to vile reactions such as Nazism.
  12. The people labeled centrist or moderate in multicultural societies are the people that have the power to have institutions label them as such, no matter how totalitarian they are in actuality.
  13. People who benefitted from thousands of years of eugenics, higher IQs, and higher levels of conscientiousness, use totalitarian force to impose dysgenic mass destruction on more vulnerable people.
  14. Without eugenics, there would be no ethical character and no intelligent species.

Saturday, September 4, 2021

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part VII

  1. Anti-white Donald Trump, a philosemitic ex-president, gets regularly slurred as a Nazi and anti-Semite.
  2. Harms created by non-whites get ignored, whitewashed or assumed to have whiteness as a root cause without evidence. 
  3. Lighter skinned non-whites and darker skinned whites self-identify as white or non-white, depending on perceived self-interest.
  4. The more power multiculturalism gets, the worse economic equality gets.
  5. A few HBDers believe black men pumping and dumping non-black women is beneficial because it produces offspring with higher IQs than the black men, forgetting that those offspring have lower IQs than their mothers, ignoring that those non-black women should be breeding with high character men with IQs above 130.
  6. Between the ears affecting racial genes supposedly don't matter to multiculturalists, but they support strict race preservation or expansion for most non-white groups. Why? It's supposedly just irrelevant genes to them.
  7. Multiculturalists support strict border controls for some countries, not others.
  8. Media control by dark triad multiculturalists gets promoted despite the fact most whites are gullible and conforming to the point of ethnomasochism.
  9. We're supposedly supposed to ethically judge only on the content of individual character, but multicultural judgments of character are increasingly dominated by tokenistic grandstanding and anti-whiteness rather than beneficence.
  10. Despite having overwhelming power, multiculturalists constantly seek low power scapegoats for the moral failings of multiculturalists.
  11. So-called model minorities are great at working hard in their perceived self-interests, terrible at ethical reasoning and actions. They don't stay model minorities once their power increases.
  12. Neoconservative multiculturalists invade countries to convert them to neoconservative values, then invite mass destructive peoples into the West despite failing to convert them.
  13. Non-white con artistry is seen as a sign of hipness, intelligence, and street smarts rather than as a character flaw.
  14. Imitation social conservatives complain about societal lack of trust while increasing the percentage of the population that is not deserving of trust.
  15. In multicultural societies, politicians increasingly get judged more on in-group symbolic gestures than on policies that harm millions.

Friday, September 3, 2021

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part VI

  1. Diversity gets called our greatest strength, despite the horrific historical track record of racial diversity, while the social engineering practices of contemporary multiculturalists get worse.
  2. Multicultural humanities and social science students spend fortunes on prestigious educations, to get worse understandings of human beings than many others get for low cost on the internet.
  3. Multiculturalists assume non-whites have little moral agency for harms they create while treating non-whites as morally superior. White multiculturalists treat their dogs as if they have more moral agency than non-whites, even punishing their dogs for misbehaviors dogs did hours earlier. Yet dogs have no cognitive ability to understand non-immediate punishments.
  4. The so-called reformist political policies of multicultural billionaires produce disastrous results over and over, including the blank slate educational policies promoted or paid for by tech billionaires. Yet such billionaires never reform themselves.
  5. Multiculturalists treat most whites as potential Nazis. Yet they do not treat non-whites as potentially tyrannical despite their track records of tribalism and tyranny. Multiculturalists assume non-whites will behave in the future as they do when non-whites are tiny minorities. But their track record says nope. The more the harmful powers of multiculturalists increase, the more power they claim they need.
  6. Black crimes against Asians were treated as a crises of the month by the media in 2021. But rampant black crimes against whites in schools and prisons are treated as minor or as nothing burgers.
  7. Multiculturalists are fine with revanchism and colonialism when non-whites do them.
  8. Multiculturalists promote reparations to equalize black and white household wealth, while ignoring that blacks will spend much of that money on frivolous things and that non-black households have fewer earners per household.
  9. Many non-white groups are off limits to even ethically beneficial criticism while whites get demonized with vile, fallacious rhetoric.

Thursday, September 2, 2021

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part V

  1. Media assume that whites must be lying and blacks must be telling the truth despite the fact that blacks commit most ethnoracial hoax crimes and false flag crimes, ignoring the studies that suggest self-reports from blacks are inaccurate.
  2. Free riding, empty suit generals and admirals claim diversity increases meritocracy.
  3. Rod Dreher, and the other Soren Kierkegaardian practitioners of ethical nihilism, treat unethical religious beliefs as morally more important than 500 million living, breathing whites.
  4. Americans spend trillions to export neoconservative values to recalcitrant Muslims, while helping Persian Gulf Sunnis, who rank among the worst beings on Earth, export their horrific values to the West.
  5. Free riders, who owe most of their incomes to Westerners, complaining about alleged white privilege.
  6. Universities give non-resident tuition waivers to foreign students from wealthy families with worse academic performance than working class native students denied non-resident tuition waivers.
  7. Contemporary ruling classes agree that slavery was so evil that multitudes of individuals needed to be slaughtered in the 1800s to stop slavery--while being allied with frenemies in Africa and Southwest Asia who practice slavery and near slavery today.
  8. Some multiculturalists claim that Antifa, cancel culture, the deep state, etc. don't exist, then the same multiculturalists cheer when those groups cancel or brutalize whites.
  9. Multiculturalists treat humans as having value only if they exist in racially diverse groups or non-white only groups.
  10. Twenty percent of blacks had interactions with police in 2015. Twenty percent of blacks self-report that they have been treated unfairly by police the past 30 days.
  11. Multiculturalists consider 100 percent non-white groups to have maximum diversity.
  12. Multicultural pundits and academics get treated as experts on non-multiculturalists despite their writings on non-multiculturalists being riddled with ad hominem and straw person attacks.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part IV

  1. Multicultural assimilationists fail to notice that contemporary whites assimilate into non-white values more than non-whites assimilate into Western values.
  2. Paul Krugman.
  3. Multiculturalists consider unhealthy, impoverished whites more privileged than young, healthy, affirmative action non-whites.
  4. Schools and libraries have displays decrying the evils of banning books while having wifi that blocks fact facing websites and employees refusing to buy books that contradict their poorly reasoned agendas.
  5. This.
  6. Multiculturalists—who control nearly all schools, corporations, mass media, and government entities—act as if they are a besieged minority.
  7. Multiculturalists—whose media, schools and corporations spend several hundred billion dollars promoting their world views—gripe about the comparatively miniscule funding of dissenting media.
  8. Non-whites act as if they should be granted the right to assault and murder whites why denying the right to self-defense to whites enduring unprovoked assaults.
  9. Parasitic Persian Gulf states have per capita incomes larger than Americans defending them.
  10. Political check points and road blocks: every case of a person being stopped at those from 2016 until now is a politically motivated felony of unlawful detainment, that is, terrorism. Yet it doesn't get counted in terrorism stats.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part III

  1. Multiculturalists believe never let a crisis go to waste, meaning when multiculturalists create disasters, they regularly repeat that others deserve blame and pretend their disasters are evidence for their agendas, as is happening right now as they blame others for Afghanistan and demand more disastrous interventions and power for themselves.
  2. Multicultural rulers demand ever greater sacrifices from non-wealthy whites while sacrificing almost nothing themselves. In fact, they benefit from the bait-and-switch, divide-and-screw multiculturalism.
  3. From George Will to Thomas Friedman and Leonard Pitts, zero percent of Pulitzer Prize winning multiculturalist opinion writers deserved the award. Same for MacArthur genius grants.
  4. Non-white countries receive almost no criticism from multiculturalists for having ethnoracial based citizenship laws.
  5. Taleb.
  6. Oligarchic, anti-white, neoconservative New Democrats tell pollsters they have no respect for oligarchic, anti-white, neoconservative Republicans.
  7. Multiculturalists claim they will move to Canada because of political acts they oppose. Shouldn't they move to Haiti, Africa or Southwest Asia to get more to the vibrant diversity they use totalitarian coercion to force on non-wealthy whites?
  8. The subhumanization of whites: European Parliament President Martin Schulz: “For me, the new Germany exists only in order to ensure the existence of the State of Israel and the Jewish people.”
  9. Multiculturalists alternate between bragging about eliminating whites and calling white elimination a "conspiracy theory."

Sunday, August 29, 2021

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part II

  1. Multiculturalists excoriate US imperialism. But the United States is more like a colony than imperial power. Wealthy individuals who have nearly all the power over the United States are citizens in a legalistic sense, not a moral sense. Many are not citizens in a legalistic sense. The kings and princes of Saudi Arabia have more influence over US policies than millions of United States working class citizens. Billionaires living in the United States pay few taxes as a percentage of their ill gotten incomes. Those that renounce their legalistic citizenship face few punishments. Imperialism is rule by an emperor or a country controlling other countries or peoples. The United States does not legally control other countries. Nor does it indirectly control countries. Puerto Rico and other territories would be granted Independence if they demanded it. Contemporary Trade practices are rigged against the United States. The most imperialistic part of the United States is refusing to grant self-determination to natives. But multiculturalists oppose that.
  2. Feign woke or go broke at the short term individual level. Be woke and go broke at the long term societal level.
  3. Judges overturn laws, claiming the motives of white lawmakers were bad, regardless of the laws' merits. Does that mean most laws made by multiculturalists should be overturned because their motives are atrocious?
  4. Racial egalitarians support equality in practice only when it coincides with their perceived self-interests.
  5. Western ruling groups support both oligarchal sharia and oligarchal neoconservatism, wasting lives and trillions of dollars when the two conflict and when the two agree.
  6. When they have the money to do so, white multiculturalists move far from the low functioning diversity they use totalitarian government coercion to force on non-wealthy whites.
  7. Multiculturalists oppose ethically accurate stereotyping while promoting their false, unethical stereotypes.
  8. Multiculturalists disparage Western values while promoting worse afro-semitic values.
  9. Multiculturalists excoriate colonialism by whites but support or whitewash  worse colonialism by people of color.
  10. Multicultural economists believe their iron law of supply and demand somehow doesn't apply when migrants reduce working class wages.

Minipedia of Multicultural Contradictions, Part I

Having ethical contradictions matters big time--in a terrible way. Multiculturalism, like all other evil ideologies, is riddled with them. My new project: providing a resource of multicultural contradictions.

  1. Multiculturalists deny self-determination to whites, copts, tibetans, and some other groups, while extolling self-determination for others, despite the fact that those others have worse ethical track records.
  2. Multiculturalists claim open borders will unleash massive untapped, beneficial creativity and brain power. Roughly: if a country has a mean IQ of about 80 and a standard deviation of about 12.5, a mere one in 30,000 citizens will have an IQ at or above a somewhat smart 130, four standard deviations above the country's mean. Most countries with mean IQs below 90 have zero citizens with IQs above 160. A large percentage of the higher IQ fraction in poor countries consists of totalitarian free riders, not the sort of people who should come to the West to prey on cuckish, altruistic, xenocentric whites. The remainder do important work in productive fields such as medicine and engineering, an ill affordable brain drain. Migrants and their descendents from higher mean IQ China specialize in espionage and anti-white activities, a creative but terrible brain power.
  3. "National conversations" about ethnoracial issues include only anti-white Marxists, anti-white New Democrats, anti-white Libertarians, and anti-white neoconservatives.
  4. The alleged protectors of Western Civilization protections against multiculturalism are harmful bait-and-switch dog whistles.
  5. Whites who deny jobs to other whites, to increase opportunities for less qualified non-whites, almost never donate their own jobs to people of color.
  6. Multiculturalists condemn non-multiculturalists for judging non-whites by their skin colors. Since Frank Salter, the Dalai Lama, and few others are the only prominent or semi-prominent non-whites to not be anti-white, judging non-whites by skin color is darn accurate. Non-multiculturalists are willing to make exceptions for the few non-whites who aren't anti-white, as they do for Frank Salter and the Dalai Lama.
  7. The worse the multiculturalists, the greater their total fertility rates.
  8. By falsely claiming to have been called racial slurs, non-whites increasingly get away with numerous crimes. In other cases, they treat being offended as a right to fine, assault, imprison, and murder whites. Being offended by a thing is irrelevant to whether the thing is good or bad.
  9. "To be white is to be racist, period."
  10. Ethnic studies lionize non-whites while whiteness studies demonizes whites.
  11. Exactly zero percent of our highly paid multicultural thought leaders is a knowledgeable policy expert.

The Benefits and Harms of the Lab Leak Conclusion

The potential benefits:

1. As with almost every evil created by entrenched contemporary establishments, the pathogen alteration industry has carried on with little reform. The somewhat probable truth of the Covid19 lab leak conclusion creates more leverage to close many labs.
2. The truth has value in itself. Because nearly all establishments are dominated by individuals devoted to unethical egoisms and often outright psychopathy, they deluge us with falsehoods and other fallacies. Other individuals get jaded or lazy, becoming less willing to reason accurately. Devotion to truth seeking must be both willed and habitual. China's ruling classes, with monetary assistance from US ruling groups, have probably committed negligent homicide numbering in the tens of millions, no matter the origins of covid-19. The Chinese government engaged in a massive cover-up. They shuttered intra-China travel from covid-19 hotspots while permitting international travel from covid-19 hotspots.
3. The somewhat probable lab leak is another logical nail in the coffins of globalism and multiculturalism.
4. Supporters of evils by Western ruling classes habitually respond to claims they consider offensive with a deluge of ad hominem attacks, straw person claims, small samples, and other fallacies. People who care more whether something offends them than the moral truth almost always support totalitarianism, habitually demonizing those with the temerity to contradict their fallacies. A few of these individuals might now experience cognitive dissonance over their prior knee-jerk responses with r-slurs and conspiracy theory distortions.

The potential harms: China starts a super war or does other aggressive acts because their ruling classes are so thin skinned they can not tolerate criticism on important issues from thousands of miles away. The probability and expected value of this is tiny. Aggressive ruling classes almost always spew pretexts for their evils that have little to with their real reasons for doing evils: sadism, egoism, dysgenics, groupthink, kakistocracy, overconfidence, salami slicing, excessive power, dark triad traits, high-unstable self-esteem, and manufacturing belief with frequent repetition. Face value self-reported motivations by ruling classes should almost never be believed. Chinese ruling classes have committed billions of evils over the past several generations, almost always with fallacious pretexts. Paradoxically, outside ruling groups willingly excoriate China over far less important issues.

Median Household Racial Stats Mislead

Ruling class thinkers point out the alleged horror that the median white household has a much larger income and wealth than the median black household. 

But using medians to compare households is usually inaccurate because of large demographic differences.

Black households around the black median rent and have one working adult, often a single parent. White, Jewish, and Asian households around their medians have homes and two working adults. Hence the big gaps. Households with two working adults earn far more than households with one working adult.

The median white household has most of their wealth tied up in a home. Contemporary houses are poor investments. They extract large costs in interest, insurance, repairs, property taxes, and real estate prices. (But hey, people have to live somewhere. And property taxes tend to be wasted on overpriced schools that teach social Marxism and other worse than worthless subjects.) Multitudes of affordable working class and middle class white neighborhoods were ruined by the multicultural, real estate, and financial industries over the past 60 years.

If social Marxism continues its relentless advance, the median white household will one day be an individual adult or single parent. The median White household income and wealth will plummet to near the black level.

Medians are more accurate for comparing individuals, provided we adjust for relevant factors, including age, IQ, laziness, spending habits, criminality, education level, educational field, conscientiousness, job preferences, job experience, local cost of living, etc.

Not Falling for Specious Arguments

How should we logically and ethically weigh an extremely clever, specious argument from an economics expert, even if like myself, we have no formal training in economics? To wit: Noah Smith's argument that recent migrants do not lower wages, meaning the wages of natives. Below are quotes from Smith's argument. I left out most of Smith's irrelevancies, circular claims, and other fallacies for copyright reasons. Some of my comments are in parentheses because I can't do brackets on my phone.

"No one is going to be persuaded by this post (persuasion is irrelevant)." Polls suggest significant variation in immigration views from year to year.

"First, people don’t really believe social science evidence. It took years and years of empirical research — solid results, almost all pointing in the same direction — just to shift academic economists’ opinions on the effects of minimum wage (irrelevant to immigration)." Most social science studies aren't evidence, especially pro-multiculturalist studies. Surprisingly, Smith portrays economists as having closed minds while also treating them as the top experts on immigration issues. The views of Marxian, libertarian, and neoliberal economists all massively contradict each other, and more important, massively contradict reality. Economists in some European countries, where most migrants receive welfare or engage in free riding occupations, preposterously tell pollsters that migrants are not lowering wages of natives.

"The average person, not being an academic economist, has even less of an idea of how reliable social science research is (false claim)."

"Second, in my experience (small sample), anti-immigration people (irrelevant ad hominem) are completely set in their belief that immigration should be restricted (false claim). It’s their fixed north star (false analogy). The justifications change — Lower wages! Environmental destruction! Brain drain! Rule of law! Cultural change! (straw person, good reasons are additive and there are far more) — but the policy conclusion never wavers (false claim).

"So this post isn’t going to persuade anti-immigration people (irrelevant ad hominem) to change their stance, and it’s probably not going to persuade (irrelevant) many normies (irrelevant ad hominem) to be up in arms about the need to let in more immigrants, either. But it’s still important to write (false claim), and not just because I’m a stubborn S.O.B. who will die face-down in the muck fighting for The Empirical Evidence (false claim). It’s because in another 20 years or so, when America’s current freakout (straw person) over identity and nationhood has passed, we’re hopefully going to be ready to let in a bunch of immigrants again."

"Most people think of labor markets as determined by supply and demand (straw person). This is actually not a great model of the labor market in general (straw person, it is better than alternatives offered)."

"A positive labor supply shock pushes wages down. A positive labor demand shock pushes up wages. Maybe one of those effects is a little bigger; maybe the other. But they’re going to mostly cancel out (false claim)."

"And to see why this is true, just think about babies. Each new generation is bigger than the one that came before it. If those young people were just a labor supply increase, then as population went up, wages would go down. But obviously that’s not what happens, because young people also buy stuff, which pushes up labor demand, which pushes wages back up (false analogy and missing quantification)."

"Immigrants are just babies from elsewhere (false analogy)."

"As you might expect, economists have done quite a lot of research on the question of whether immigration lowers wages. It’s not the kind of thing where you can just wave your hands and... conclude that the former causes the latter... just a few reasons you can’t just look at overall correlations: Immigrants may compete with some groups of native-born workers more than others; for example, less-educated immigrants might compete mainly with native-born workers without a high school degree (no good reason to use the word may here)."

"Second, they try to compare places that get immigrants with places that don’t, but which are otherwise similar in all economic respects (false claim)." This is why all the pro migration studies are junk. Economists ignore dozens of long-term indirect factors, factors they consider offensive, and so on. They ignore IQ, faulty measures, unrepresentative sampling, character traits, economic effects of cultural changes, the low productivity of some migrant groups far more numerous descendants, and so on. Those groups' descendants then get counted as part of the native population in future junk science. It is extremely important to know whether the descendants of migrants will cause genocides, subjugation, totalitarianism, civil wars, societal collapse or massive amounts of legalized corruption. The historical track record of diversity is atrocious.

Smith does not stick to the wage issue. He raises the irrelevant issue of whether contemporary migration is good in general, treating the wage issue as if it decides the immigration issue, leaving out other  important issues, especially issues more important than the wage issue. Smith lists the junk science, some of it relevant to unemployment but not the wage issue. 

Smith never mentions productivity.

If an immigrant group, and far more important, their much less productive descendants, are less productive than the native population but disproportionately get hiring quotas, receive welfare benefits, and enter into multitudes of other free riding activities, they will almost certainly lower the median and mean hourly compensations of native populations, along with living standards. It's important to know the rates of Machiavellianism, psychopathy, evolutionary egoism, psychological egoism, unethical egoism, and other traits among differing ethnoracial groups, but that would be too offensive to know or mention. Immigration also turns native populations into worse and less productive people than they would otherwise be. Many immigrant groups become far worse as their power and numbers increase. A decades-old study tells us little about how ethnoracial groups will behave 50 years from now when they have more power.

There is also an ever decreasing quality in the character of ethnoracial groups entering the US, but they are all just lumped together as immigrants by Smith.

To weigh arguments, we should give no weight to fallacies and compare the relevant good points from various sides. Unfortunately, for Smith's argument, it contains no good points and thus no evidence despite his claims to the contrary. It matters little whether he has a dozen or 50 dozen evidence-free junk science studies to cite. We should not fall for rhetorical tricks no matter how clever. The long-term consequences for present societies' rampant glib, craven, and anti-reason views on dysgenic and multicultural issues will be disastrous for hundreds of future generations.
