re: Students Say Diversity Is More Important Than Free Speech

Looking at that graphic I wonder if the wording has a little too do with the results.
You can either have free speech or diversity, according to the graphic.
I could see plenty of age groups thinking if they chose free speech that it means they are against diversity. Obviously you can have both.

So people that directly benefit from diversity initiatives think they are more important than free speech? Who would think people would be so selfish?

They love them some diversity, as long as it's not diversity of thought.

So, people with darker pigment have different viewpoints and opinions? Strange.
If so, that is quite racist of you, ISO.
That is where the racism lies.
Diversity is multifaceted, including diversity of opinion, not just diversity of skin color.
One group seems to focus solely on the skin color.

Uh, yea.
Everyone does. It's not like all white people think one way and then all black people think another way.

The worst thing we ever did was give women the right to vote.

Well I don't give a shite about different viewpoints and opinions, so there's that.

When has anyone every benefited from diversity, other than the person who got hired because of their skin color? Seriously. What does it do?
Supposedly it helps idea generation. Of course, generating ideas is about 1% of the workforce load, so it is mostly used for holding back whites and progressing incompetent blacks.

I've actually never been a liberal. I voted for Bob Dole against Clinton in 1996 when I was 18
I've found myself skewing much more Libertarian since my mid 30's.

Its a famous quote.
I am as well. I'm a moderate libertarian.
Socially liberal and financially conservative, but both within reason.
We need a Moderate Libertarian Party. I truly believe most people fit into that category, but just don't realize it.

quote:This seems to contradict the earlier finding, and is an indication that when they are no longer students, their outlook will change dramatically.
Despite the popularity of online platforms, though, students reported social media tended to stifle free speech in many ways. About 60 percent of students indicated that too many people block others online with whom they disagree -- this is up 12 percentage points from 2016.

And this is why the latest Democratic initiative to use high school students to push the agenda for gun control is so laughable. They are students, high school or college, and they don't know shite.
They are in school TO LEARN so that they can then make grown up decisions. They are not valid sounding boards for setting economic or social policy.
