you misunderstand his argument. hes not saying that racism doesnt exist, hes saying that the way liberals conceive of racism is harmful. that they turn whiteness into some kind of supernatural force that trasnceds human will to make white people uniquely evil and lovely people and that the only thing they can do is shut up and listen. and its true, the way racists and wokes talk about race is remarkably similar, that black people and white people are fundamentally different and they should avoid mixing. the only difference is their prescription. there was a good chapo episode on this not too long ago

also they both invoke digital blackface via black people gifs

this is like an article from the mirror world where buzzfeed is alt right

We weren�t na�ve in inviting Mr. Murray to campus. We knew that he was one of the authors of �The Bell Curve.� We knew what happened at Middlebury.

But we invited him because we feel it is important to make an unequivocal statement that we believe universities should remain bastions of civil debate and tolerance. We want our school to be a place where people of different ideas and backgrounds can genuinely learn from one another.

Should the totalitarian attitudes of those very students who smear Mr. Murray as a fascist be able to intimidate their peers into shutting down voices that disrupt their ideological �safe space�? Should adherence to the prevailing political ideology of a given environment be requisite for addressing members of that community? Simply put, should the fact that some don�t want to hear an opinion mean that no one else gets to? We think not.

If given the chance, we�d invite Mr. Murray again.

lmao

Recently I took a friend with only a high school degree to lunch. Insensitively, I led her into a gourmet sandwich shop. Suddenly I saw her face freeze up as she was confronted with sandwiches named �Padrino� and �Pomodor� and ingredients like soppressata, capocollo and a striata baguette. I quickly asked her if she wanted to go somewhere else and she anxiously nodded yes and we ate Mexican

I feel like there's a huge difference between the sort of middle class that involves growing up with parents who make at least several times median wage (or ending up making that kind of money yourself just due to luck/connections) and the sort of middle class that involves actually making around median wage. I'm not sure if it really makes sense to refer to the sort of people who have parents making six figures as "middle class," at least as long as the term is still used to refer to people making around median wage. They should at least be referred to as "upper-middle class."

median wage is not middle class

there is no such thing as "upper middle class" that's just middle class - if you're below that you're actually working class

Toward the end of his marriage at the time, Mr. Friedman, by summer, had separated from his wife and was no longer working at the Seasteading Institute. At that point, he had no misgivings about asking Ms. Benjamin on a date of sorts � to join him on a 10-hour trip to Burning Man, an annual weeklong festival in Nevada�s Black Rock Desert, where they would hang out with Future Camp, a group of futurists and transhumanists.

At the same time, Bennet acknowledged that the core, full-time op-ed staff needs to be more diverse. �It�s a fair criticism,� he said. �This is a work in progress.� To that end, Sulzberger has freed up budget for more columnists, and Bennet said he�s �aggressively� looking for new ones, both full time and on a contributor basis. �We are trying to diversify our whole team along several axes,� he said. �That includes by identity, by ideology, by geography, by skills, and also by subject matter.�
