Straight from critical race theory.
It's like burning down the house to kill a spider.
quote:
In 1996, Californians incorporated that principle into their constitution by enacting Proposition 209, the California Civil Rights Initiative. Its straightforward language was taken almost verbatim from the Civil Rights Act: “The state shall not discriminate against, or grant preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin.”
quote:
Now California progressives want to roll back the clock. Proposition 16, placed on the November ballot by the overwhelmingly Democratic Legislature, would strip the Civil Rights Initiative from the state constitution and make racial discrimination by the government lawful once again.
quote:
Advocates of the ballot measure say they simply want more diversity — in the language of the Proposition 16 website, they seek to “level the playing field” and “give women and people of color a fair shot to succeed.” Allowing state universities and government agencies to use preferences based on race and gender when admitting students, awarding contracts, and hiring staff is essential to rooting out the bias that, they argue, is baked into public institutions.

It’s a popular view among the state’s elite.
“The full weight of California’s political establishment — including a Democratic governor, a long list of major elected officials, deep-pocketed donors, business leaders, and even several professional sports franchises — are lining up behind Proposition 16,” the San Jose Mercury News reported last month. Lavish campaign contributions have poured into the Yes-on-16 coffers. As of mid-September, the campaign had raised more than $12 million.
quote:
By contrast, the No-on-16 campaign has collected less than $1 million, most from small-dollar donors. According to the campaign, many of its supporters are Asian immigrants, who fear that if the ban on racial preferences is removed from the California Constitution, they or their children will bear the brunt of the resulting inequities, especially when it comes to college admissions. Their concerns are especially acute given California’s awful history of anti-Asian bigotry and the explosion of hate incidents targeting Asians during the coronavirus pandemic.
quote:
Racial and gender diversity hasn’t been stymied by California’s constitutional restriction. Black residents account for 6.5 percent of the state’s population but hold 9.6 percent of government civil service jobs. The latest government data show that the nonwhite share of California’s public employees is 57.5 percent; white people are just 42.5 percent of the government workforce.
quote:
The same is true of higher education. The freshman class admitted to the University of California last year was the largest and most diverse in the university’s history — without requiring racial quotas. And as more underrepresented minorities enter the university, more finish: The four-year graduation rate for Black, Hispanic, and American Indian students climbed from 36.5 percent in 1999 to 57.3 percent in 2015.

California is the state every concerned American should be paying attention to. That state is the Marxist template for America.

I thank God every day that we got out of that state.
We've been in Nevada for almost 3 months now and I STILL can't wipe the smile off my face.

Would it really be that bad if an earthquake dropped them into the ocean?

Here in this hopeless fricking hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any fricking time, any fricking day
Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
'Cause I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way
I wanna watch it all go down
Mom please flush it all away
I wanna see it go right in and down
I wanna watch it go right in
Watch you flush it all away
I wanna see it come down
Burn it down
Suck it down
Flush it down
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away

I wanna watch it go right in
Watch you flush it all away
I wanna see it come down
Burn it down
Suck it down
Flush it down

I guess this means more whites on the basketball and football teams?

Can we say that without getting banned?
