Believe me i not the one for verbal diarrhoea but exactly what do you mean about objective information? what is objective? is it the stats? who said stats are objective? Earlier on you said if im black then i must be hating myself for being black or if im white im a racist!! And now when i tell u that im black you talk about hypothetical qualifications, i wont argue semantics!!!!
Okay i also repeat<<<<<<< i used that title to get peoples attention and yes its misleading and that was done deliberately........
Cool man.But I took the words as they stood and whether u intended it or not, the words u used conveyed an unsubstantiated prejudice.
That's all I was saying.That prejudice could indicate that u were racist or self-hating depending on what u r.
The fact that u're black doesn't alter the validity of that statement.
I specifically qualified my statement by saying if u could substantiate ur statement with objective info eg stats then the statement couldn't be self-hating or racist bcoz it would in reality be a fact.
If u're gonna make a statement that targets an entire race u better have the facts to back it up and stats would be a good starting point.
Ur criticism of Stats is valid but its validity depends on an actual flaw being found in the methodology used for the compilation of particular stats.Otherwise if there is no flaw in the methodology or if its negligible then stats are a reliable source of information.
How else would u substantiate the general statement "blacks don't read"?
Have u done a survey? Fact is all I was asking for.
