re: Whites have an unfair advantage. BIPOC communities can’t get ahead.

I think they can, just that the level of disadvantage that they were exposed to 50 years ago doesn't evaporate over night. My firm didn't even hire African-Americans 40 years ago and there are people at my firm who've worked here for longer than that.

You're up for a promotion. The other candidate is a black woman, and against all probabilities - the two of you have identical academic credentials, work experience, and all other perceptible attributes that matter in this prospective role. Neither of you are the son/daughter of a founder or senior executive.

Who's getting the promotion in 2023?

if they thought that they didn't have a disadvantage, why on earth would Asian Americans vote for Democrats?

---

Perhaps because they listen to the bullshite spewed by the MSM that tells them ad nauseum that they are victims.

If you think The Economist is right wing you've proven my point about associations.

---

I was pointing out that I read left-wing sources as well.

The Economist was my example of a pro-globalization left-wing editorial.

I read the WSJ for a right-wing pro-globalization editorial line.

I read fiscally conservative news sources, socially left-wing news sources, socially right-wing news sources.

Research papers are printed every day. You don't read National Review every day and it's not a conservative magazine anymore. Did you not realize that? If shifted when WFB died.

---

It's an example of a right-wing news source that's more anti-Trump.

I read the National Review pretty frequently.

I'm not sure I can expose myself to any more right-wing news sources than I currently do considering I also browse this board as well.

How can you call yourself well-read when you don't even have a subscription to the WSJ?

Someone is living in the 1980s.

My point was I try and expose myself to a variety of different sources from conservative to liberal, from pro-globalization to anti-globalization, to macroeconomic editorials to microeconomic editorials, etc.

---

Yet none of your sources are anything but Keynesian sources.

That's because 99% of TV and newspapers are left wing. There are some good right wing opinion sites online. And then you can read actual books like I do.
Today I started my 1st of the year. I read 20 Kindle books on political issues a year. This one is on govt and media lying about Covid.
In just one chapter I've learned things you probably don't believe.

1. The average age of a person dying of Covid is 81.
2. 99% of those dead suffered from another disease before getting Covid.
3. 10 countries refused to Vax. From 2021 to present, all 10 had drastically lower Covid death rates than the big Vax nations: USA, Europe, Canada.

The author is a doctor and researcher in vaccines for 40 years. He worked for the govt that he is exposing.

What?

The Heritage Foundation is a well-known monetarist publication.

I also read publications from the Miso Institute and the Cato Institute (I interned with the Cato Institute in college).

I read the publications pretty frequently both for fun and work purposes.

Its amazing how your stories constantly evolve and change when you find out the sources you listed aren't actually conservative.

Watching you flay around in this thread is hilarious.

I literally listed the Heritage Foundation in my original comment.

This is beyond pointless - you don't even seem to have read my original comment where I clearly pointed out editorial lines that were not Keynesian. I don't see the point in you continuing to comment if you're going to try and argue that you're somehow well-read.

You literally called having a WSJ subscription a throwback to the 1980s. If you read the WSJ, you'd know it's not a Keynesian newspaper.

But I suspect you didn't really know that nor did you read my original comment so I'm not surprised you'd find it hilarious. One may do so if they don't know how to read.

The first one is obvious that COVID is a disease of the elderly.

---

No, that doesn't explain the age because the narrative by the left is that children are in danger. If just a few 100 small children and a few 1,000 teens were dying then it would offset the millions of elderly who are averaging 80s by themselves.

The fact is that the young aren't dying at all and don't need vaccinations.
