Why Are Highly Educated Americans Getting More Liberal? : NPR
Are you talking about Guns, Germs, Steel? I read the book. That's why I suggested "The Bell Curve" as a counter point. It teaches what I personally believe, it's genetics. EVERYTHING in the real world points to that conclusion. EVERYTHING in past history points to that conclusion.

As for your link above... It's demographics. Women and minorities have increased their percentages in universities through affirmative action and quotas. White men went from being a majority to a minority. The majors have changed from STEM to the humanities and women's/minority's studies. It's demographics.

Besides, our educators and educational system is now #17 in the world. Not the best any more.

If you read the book then you would know it does not point at genetics.
So you can't say everything points to genetics.

Everything you want to believe points to genetics.

If you read better, you'd find genetics is in MY book recommendation. They're on average 20 points lower. "I" said everything points to genetics.

Sure...affirmative action and quotas...that's why there are more women and minorities than white men. It's the ONLY reason. Only 5% of affirmative action "students" graduate. Only 25% make it past the first year. It's literally a wasted slot.

Schools are liberal because they're full of women and women are liberal. They can afford to be. When things get bad, they can marry and have a husband take care of everything. They can pop out a kid and automatically qualify for up to $60,000 a year in welfare benefits.

The only one who has to survive on his wits and struggle to survive is a white man. And we do it with the deck stacked against us. No wonder we die younger.

Everything you believe, not everything.

OK...touche, not EVERYTHING...ALMOST everything...better?

Give me examples, not ONE isolated incident...where they are the BEST. I admit they excel in sports because that is closer to their roots. They RARELY excel in intellectual or management endeavors.

Give me the black Einstein, the black Rockefeller, Hearst, JP Morgan, etc. If a black is famous, it's for doing something for blacks, rarely anything else.

You'll come back with Eli Whitney, cotton gin, did HE invent it? Doubtful. But mechanization DID end slavery, it wasn't anything else. No noble cause. Machines did 10X the work without complaining.

MLK? Malcom X, Harriet Tubman? Only blacks benefited.

There is nothing to convince a sane person that we are equal. They were "discovered" as stone age, no wheel, no written language, cave men. In Africa many still do. That's what they turn even modern housing into, shells, huts. They live in squalor everywhere they're left to their own devices.

EVERY post tells me I'm wrong and I've yet to be shown any evidence I'm wrong. A movie? REAL LIFE...show me in real life how equal they are.

You don't want to hear the truth. And you are a legend in your own mind...

What truth? A PBS special? Full of propaganda?

I want a real world example of blacks being better at anything besides sports. Sports is THEIR specialty, not intellectualism. Why can't you admit that? Give me examples of their greatness...

crickets

I wish I was a legend, maybe then I could get through to you. No, I just woke up a few years ago, when I retired, I had the chance to think, about different things. What I found was disturbing. Like the fact that from age 6 down THEY are the majority. You have NO IDEA what a profound, what a devastating, change is coming. No idea. Life as we knew it, will end.

Tell that to your grandchildren. Remind them of how great the good old days were...but they won't get any of that. Grandpa and Grandmas generation thought it "fair" to give the country away to those less fortunate. So they stopped having kids themselves and imported about 50 million Hispanics to do it for them. We convinced ourselves this would never happen. We thought they'd assimilate, blend right in. We didn't know they'd take over.

Oh well...sorry kid.

They've already invaded radio with half the stations spanish. They have their own TV networks and packages. Press one for spanish will soon be in spanish for an english option.
