Ethnicity about to become clearer

Post by TC Talks » Thu Mar 28, 2024 4:51 pm

Did you know people from the Middle East are counted as White?

Here's the new census...
Image
Changes to a range of federal surveys on Thursday to gather more detailed information about the nation’s ethnic and racial makeup.

The changes — the first in decades to standard questions that the government asks about race and ethnicity — would produce by far the most detailed portrait of the nation’s ancestral palette ever compiled. And a new option will be available for the first time allowing respondents to identify as part of a new category, Middle Eastern or North African ancestry.

But the changes also have the potential to rankle conservatives who believe that the nation’s focus on diversity has already gone too far.
Why would conservatives care?

Anything else is racist.

No, unless you're a Christian National White Supremacist, then it's all just White trash.

There are whites in Mexico, Scandinavia, Russia, Argentina and more. White is similar to Latino in terms of geographic location.

Is the idea of people just being people too progressive for you? If stupid people would stop being themselves I would go for it in a heartbeat. Screw having races. That’s so 1500.

Yes, we're in 2024, and the more accurately we are measured the better life will be to understand.

The government divides people by race, labels them by race, and treats them differently because of their labelled race.

And imposes penalties on anyone else if they do that.

So do it's citizens, especially those who feel entitled to have the country run to benefit their ethnicity and religion.

You mean those citizens with Judeo Christian ethics that sacrificed their blood and treasure to forge this county into the greatest place in the world? Or, are you talking about estrogen laden Nancy boy's like you that could never be counted on to stand up and win a war like WW I or WW Ii because you grew up playing with your cock instead of a rifle?
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

My point is to truly move on you have to pull a Star Trek and just grow out of caring what part of this rock you came from. It’s irrelevant trivia.

Can't live in the past dude, this isn't the 50's any longer. I am really curious how many Muslims live in Michigan. With that data, maybe students would be getting Ramadan off instead of Easter.

I highly doubt that. That wouldn’t even make sense.

I mostly side with RT on this one, though in principle I don't necessarily have a problem with the government compiling race and ethnicity data. The problem is, as km points out, that the government uses that data for purely political purposes.
