There are definitely plenty of white liberals That Think these sorts of things and I totally agree with you there. But to say that that is the official white liberal position is a little silly. Plenty of liberals I know want a better situation for black communities and don't infantilize them
And I’d say there are plenty of Southerners with the same attitudes in both directions as well. But to imply that Southerners officially hold negative views of blacks is equally silly, no?

"I'm low IQ cuz of muh environment...duh huh."
Populations can raise their IQ over time, based on behaviors and environment. IQ is not wholly genetic. Your absolute peak IQ may be, but most people don't reach that and it doesn't matter the vast majority of the time.
Also, social factors play a part in negatively affecting an individual's IQ. You're going to see these issues in populations of lower socio-economic status. By the time IQ can be measured effectively, irreparable damage can occur.

They why don't they do something that helps them instead of using them? Maybe a good start would be teaching accountability instead of victimhood.

Ok so take your typical BM born in pathological culture in a shitty/dangerous area with parents who have already chosen to not improve themselves via education/learning and have damaged their IQ irreparably.
Tell me what to tell that kid to "escape the chains of victimhood" as a toddler.

Freedom (aka capitalism).
Free markets and economic advancement.
Marginalized communities can improve, but they never will without economic opportunity. They'll never get that economic opportunity while their pathologies are subsidized, defended, and protected.

White progs are terrified to do anything that doesnt enhance the victim complex regarding minorities. Which creates a sense of inferiority in minorities.
They've been classically conditioned to blame society rather than look inward.

One question.
When are black communities going to want a better situation for themselves, and act on it?
A black person who strives to do better is vilified in the black community. "Look at that Uncle Tom trying to act White."
Blacks get mad when murders, robberies, and rapes go unsolved in their community. Yet, no one will say anything. Even when half the community knows who did it.
They had blacks in a documentary about Compton that aired on the History Channel. One of them talked about how beautiful and peaceful it was when they were one of the first black families to move there. Now, it is a dangerous crime infested shithole. Who did they blame? White people.
No, we left. Blacks destroyed Compton...and Detroit....and Memphis...and...

If I took two twins and put one in an impoverished Community with an underfunded School and the other in an affluent house with a nearby highly funded School and a well-funded community, I would place a wager that the one in the better environment was going to have more success.
You're correct.
The problem is playing games in how we describe the "impoverished community" and the causes of why the 2 populations are so different.

So… things that minorities frick up or refuse to do is “white privilege” and not “crab bucket don’t want anyone to get ahead of them” horseshite?

Liquidity?

How exactly did Joe Biden open the border question mark And I don't want you To go too far out of your way here but I would just love to know exactly Why so many Republican voters keep drinking that Kool-Aid period somehow the borders only a problem when there's a Democrat who's a president period literally the same border for my entire life but somehow now it's an even bigger problem. It's almost as if the Republicans don't have a platform so they have to spread propaganda to get you to vote for them and the Border seems like a pretty spicy option. Exactly what opportunities are being taken from working-class americans? We have some of the lowest unemployment we've ever had right now so it seems like you're being emotional again
Contender for most obtuse statement ever made here? I think so.
Read more, post less.

No, its a mixed economy.
Government influence makes it unaffordable for poor people. Competition makes things more affordable.
The poor are poor, not because they lack resources (Black America would probalby lead the world among black nations) its because their dollar has become worthless.

I wonder about the correlation between IQ and violent crime rate. We are aware that 2% of 13% = 50%+.

Isn’t like over 65%. It’s shocking such a small group commit almost all the crime and our “leaders” are silent.

Over half the kids in LA County Schools are functionally illiterate. Its a demographic time bomb waiting to go off.
As things become more unaffordable, black market opportunities rise which creates more criminals.
My guess, is the underground economy is about to explode and become one of the largest economic sectors for the working class.

No.
You said liquidity and not wealth. You're showing a complete ignorance of what paper-wealth from owning companies means. How does Bezos owning a bunch of stock he'll never sell affecting the poor in the US?
quote:
it is still represented by the available money supply of the United States.
Again, you're not using the correct words.
It represents a discussion as to the overall wealth of the US. Much of that wealth is nothing more than numbers on paper and will never affect the money supply. The money supply is a different set of numbers on completely different computer screens.
Also, total wealth is completely malleable and can go upwards towards infinity. What does that have to do with your argument?

Does that mean you're just not going to address anything I actually said?
I don't think you understand what you're saying.
How is Amazon stock increasing in price affecting the poor or depriving them of anything?
