University of Delaware: All Whites in U.S. are Racist

[SpencerH]

This type of far-left politically-correct bizarreness extends far beyond the U of D.

I recently read some letters to the editor of a well respected scientific journal. Each letter attacked the authors of a report in that journal that re-affirmed that African Americans were more at risk for premature delivery than Caucasians (despite every statistical effort to normalize for the known socioeconomic variables). The authors were racist to submit such a report since race "is a socioeconomic construct".

Yeah, genes are a socioeconomic construct. I'm currently writing a paper that indicates that the carriage of certain microorganisms is influenced by race and the presence of those organisms and bacterial opportunism may account for higher disease prevalence in that African Americans. I cant wait for the backlash.

So when are you going to enroll to the bio... I mean eugenics programs? Nice one Spencer :BOOO!!!:

[Krill]

Hope that the stupid letters to the editor don't get published Spencer. I agree that some people just don't seem to understand what genes are and what they do...

My wife had to take one of these racist white guilt course during her graduate studies. The "only whites can be racist" mantra seems to be widespread in sociology departments.

I have always found it so funny when people on this site, which is what? 90% white? 95%? go on a tizzy about whites being called racists and blah, blah , blah.

Its hilarious. Probably unintentionally, but beyond hilarious still!

I also love when people pontificate about race. Yes, whites aren;t the only people who are racist. EVERYONE is to some degree xenophobic and warry of people who look distinctly different. So in Tibet it means Han Chinese oppressing Tibetans. In central africa, hutus oppressing Tutsis or vice versa.

And in the US, the white mayority being vastly more comfortable with itself and its own "people" than those non-white weirdos.

I think that whites are pretty much all racists. Many to a not very great extant. I include those who are in interracial relationships also. My experience with other races is that they are pretty much all racists (to some degree) also.

Is that supposed to be ironic?

Unless you misunderstand the term (possible), no.

Hey, thanks to this countries' weird notions of race I am not technically counted as white, so I am free to point and laugh at this whitey hissy fit.

[Kuciwalker]

Then I'm not sure what the point of your comment was, since I imagine most people wouldn't like to be called racists.

[DaShi]

He's just being antagonistic. Gepap hates having friends.

I thought it was rather simple.

All the time on this site we have the same circle jerk in which a bunch of polytubbies go on ranting about the evils of affirmative action, and people being classified by race! (the idea!) And how it shouldn't be done, and then some start talking about poor oppressed white people, and then the talk about "diversity" starts, and all of this from a bunch of people who can generally with significant accuracy be described as white males, that most oppressed of groups.

Perhaps these threads would be less predictable if we have GASP, some diveristy in Poly, but 'god' helps us, no offense to the fine people who run this site, but the earth will explode before a large number of women or disadvantaged minorities (in either the US or Europe, thought what constitutes what in each place varies) join this site.

Seriously Gepap, that doesn't mean people aren't entitled to their opinions on race regardless of what their race. If we have to put up with your crap, you should at least show the same respect to the other posters here. What a jerk!

I can't decide whether that was meant at face value or not, but it is funny either way.
