25:44 the term anti concept was actually coined by Ayn Rand. And I am so glad that that term is starting to get mainstream appeal. Now I'm going to actually have to start watching Kirk Wilcox. And look you actually use the word anticoncept correctly too.

" 'When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination.'" - Thomas Sowell.
Absolutely, positively true. Thomas Sowell is a national treasure. Thank u, Tacitus.
This is the current situation in India, previous government appeased peacefuls so much that now they feel they are being discriminated when they are jailed for rioting.
Fake secularism is cancer.
@TRUMP2020-FOREVER are you a parrot?
@@jays903 are you a parrot?
I find myself comforted when I see more and more people quoting the national treasure that is Thomas Sowell.
- "it's so unfair! you simply have no chance to succeed!"
- "so how did you make it?"
- "that's different! i worked really hard."
- "you worked harder than your peers and that's why you succeeded?"
- "yes"
- "bruh, soo unfair! omg!"
The elephant in the room here is that these people do not want to work hard. They in fact do everything they can to avoid it.
@@sole__doubt and that's hard work lol
Praise it
Yeah, my mom always told me, son you have to work ten times as hard as the white people if you wanna make something out of yourself. Then I asked her....why do I have to work 10 times as hard? Then she hit me..
*I grew up in NYC in the 50's and 60's, back when NYC was a literal war zone. My high school was considered the worst in the city (HS44, on the upper West side, where I lived - now fully gentrified and full of rich kids, back then it was a **_terrifying shithole)._** I worked my ass off, took the GED at 16, and went on to college and medical school. I succeeded **_because_** of the merit system, despite going to the two worst public schools in Manhattan (PS87 and HS44). '44 was SO violent that the teachers union went on strike, demanding "combat pay" to show up there). My first year there (6th grade), several teachers were raped, one was shot, and every kid I knew was already carrying defensive weapons (yes, 6th graders were carrying guns and knives to school). This girl can't even **_imagine_** how bad these two schools were - but many of us did just fine, becoming successful, well rounded out adults - **_because of the merit system!_*

"They dont really work for people who look like us" she says as she wears an outfit that costs more than all of my clothes.
They work for us specifically, but somehow not people that look like us.
Riiiiight.
They work for people who look like white people but they don't identify as white, and are the most prejudiced, most insular group of people in the United States. The melting pot was purposefully separated and taught to hate each other by ONE group of people and they don't have particularly dark skin.
And when anyone brings up "the tribe", they're really running interference for "the left". Let's remember, everyone. It's not the blacks. It's not the whites. It's not the Jews. It's not the cops. The problem is THE LEFT.
@@rustyshack2349 your conspiracy is just as stupid as their conspiracy. It's all tribalist bullshit.
Jews are broadly educated and very politically diverse and active. Ashkenazi Jews come from multiple European and via intermediate countries (eg South Africa). They have been key players in many historical movements, in high frequency relative to their populations. If you identify a cohort of Jewish people who appear to have an undue influence, look around and you’ll likely find many more on the opposite and many other sides. For me they are a fascinatIng story of humanity that is well-documented. They have had an outsized influence on the world- I see them as a sort of fuel additive.

I was in the lowest 25% of my high school class. I was in the top 1% of the science section of the ACT. I easily got a degree in electrical engineering and just retired very early after a successful 30-year career. I get so wound up when people whine about standardized testing. It's basically teachers' unions objecting to teachers being held accountable in any way. What idiot believes that you can improve a system you won't measure the effectiveness of?
💯 agree. The teachers' union doesn't want their incompetent activists (teachers) seen as the brainwashing perverts that many are.
Right, there may be specific issues with specific tests but any system with a measurable goal needs periodic assessment-that’s just the reality of it.
She's not wrong. Meritocracy can't exist within a system of affirmative action.
And legacy admission and inflation.
@@bisiriyutajudeen5728 legacy admission is based on your forebears merit. Inflation has nothing to do with it.
@Cody I didn’t say inflation caused legacy admission. I said both inflation and legacy admission makes the idea of merit difficult because some have a leg up not based on merit due to seigniorage and legacy admission.
@@bisiriyutajudeen5728 seigniorage? Also, you're misunderstanding me. I'm saying that legacy admission is still merit based. I'm also saying that inflation doesn't keep the poor man down. It keeps everyone down equally.
Yup. In certain communities, it seems that it’s a race to the bottom
Vox: Meritocracy doesn't exist.
Everyone: How do you know?

Hmmm. They make a solid counter argument.

And that's 9 million people who are pretty damn stupid.

32:00 “The SAT was written by a eugenicist.”
So he was a Democrat, then.
And the NOT-Z V-2 rocket scientist are the founders of NASA. The man who is called the father of modern gynecology was a slave owner who experimented on said slaves. Bad people can provide things of value.
Eugenics isn’t a bad thing - it is used daily in a wide variety of industries. It’s just that people are ignorant about it and have been b.rainwashed to automatically think of it in a certain way.
@@dracon501 You're taking me back to the old days, when people could discuss sensitive subjects in a nuanced manner.
So was Planned Parenthood, and that organization is still actively preventing minority babies from being born - primarily by killing them.
@The Eastern Block Immigrant What's the difference if people come to them of they come to people? The people consent either way.
Ask her which surgeon she’d prefer if her life was on the line: The one who graduated at the top of his Ivy League class and is world renowned, or the state university “diversity” attendee nobody’s ever heard of.
The second option should be the person at the bottom of the class from the worst medical program in the country. Doctors can be good despite attending state universities. And it should be her childs life was on the line. For principal she might accept a bad doctor but if it was her young child thats a different story.
I wonder how this woman or Vox, could care to explain how African and Asian immigrants can come to this country, without the cultural foothold Black Americans or even White Americans have, for that matter, and can actually out-perform and out-earn them in academia and overall earnings. Talk about being oppressed by your excuses and a gross inferiority complex.
Real Africans are not welcomed by black America and asians are conveniently categorized as white to hate on them
@Damien West It seems more like real Africans want nothing to do with black Americans, because their cultures are different. People from Nigeria come here and go into higher education, mostly STEM, and out earn others. I always ask leftists who say all black people are treated poorly in America, how they can explain Nigerians coming here and out earning white people and sometimes Asians? They say it’s because the history is different. Which confirms that racism today still exists, but largely people suffer from internalized racism than externalized racism. If racism was external than all black people would have poor outcomes in America, but it tends to be the ones born here, suggesting the issue is culture and not racism toward one skin color (though racism does exist)
Vox on SAT: "Started by a eugenicist."
Vox on Planned Parenthood: *crickets*
Don’t forget gun control, minimum wage, progressive income tax, etc.
The test has changed a lot, but I don’t think abortion has changed
Abortion is very beneficial for America due to the different rates at which different populations get abortions.
I don't know if this is hyperbole or truth, but it is 100% on brand for Vox.
Hitler breathed air and used rulers. You don't see those things being attacked for being supported by racists.
Sean is picking on the special needs kids again. Oops I mean Vox…
Close enough
My son is honest to God a special needs child and I'm wildly offended that you would compare him to those cretins.

What's missing from the formula for success is also social intelligence; the ability to read a room, speak with confidence, and encourage people to back you. Once into a prestigious law or business school, tgese things will affect your career more than grades providing you are able to pass.
They keep confusing “achievements and standards” for perceived “supremacy.”
Achievement and standards are based on freedom of choice. The left hates freedom of choice.
That’s because they want the supremacy without the hard work and achievements.
.... Give me an example of a billionaire who got where they are because of their achievements and standards. Just one.
I don't believe you can because they don't exist, none of them have done anything to merit their wealth, their standing in society, their power, they haven't worked for it, they got there by claiming they did the work that you did. This is not a meritocracy.
@@josejaquez4100 So you're saying that every billionaire did not get their wealth by earning it? Do you have any proof of that; or are we supposed to simply take your word for it?

The women used the" "it was once bad so it is always bad" argument talking about segregation like it exist today when black people have sources today to help with educational success like every other race
I'd argue they have far more programs to help them with literally almost anything then any of the other races
I mean, they do have segregation now, brought to them by progressives...
@@dibberz-v1z as a black person myself i can definitely see that observation.
But it does exist today, just ask the kids who were separated into black only classes by a black female principal in Atlanta GA.
@@hgrimes9824 I meant it in the since of how bad segregation was before. Your right though we live in a time where media and society in America is pushing racism so hard that black people themselves are legit being racist and segregating people.

She's offering an argument against meritocracy? Tell me, how do I judge her argument against all the other arguments about meritocracy without judging them, analyzing them, testing them and seeing which has more...what's that word I'm looking for....."merit?"
Is meritocracy a myth?
Let’s prove that it is by playing a board game that I made up and is completely arbitrary.
@The Analytic Synthetic Dichotomy The lefts manipulation of language strikes again!!!
And completely disproves the premise that meritocracy is a myth
@@theanalyticsyntheticdichot4404 K, literally not what it means today
@@theanalyticsyntheticdichot4404
So then if ocracy is "rule of," then it means rule of merit. Anti-concept or not, our country is supposed to be based on merit, ability, determination, and hard work. The left perverts language, so I wouldn't be surprised if they want to distort what it means to have merit or a meritocracy.
“Let me prove something exists in reality by playing a meaningless game that purposely affirms my argument with scenarios I’ve developed to prove myself correct”

Not if your black because if your black and have to work for something just like everybody else it’s racist
The whole point of school is to educate you into a valuable citizen. Not teaching you facts, but teaching you how to be a good subject. At least, that's what they are actually telling you in the heart of Europe.. I'm getting pretty depressed with my country.
Early Life: Parents Immigrate from Russia. Grew up in a poor, low income area. Learned to read and speak basic English from analog leapfrog. Learned addition and multiplication (up to the 6's) from immigrant community members. Kindergarten comes, 1 grade levels ahead, not allowed to skip grades or transfer to a better school. By third grade, understand algebra and read Percy Jackson, House of Scorpion, etc. but not allowed to transfer schools. Held down to bring the stupid up.
Middle School: Kids in honor roll that should be in regular class, and kids in regular class that should be in third grade. Someone in eighth grade doesn't understand improper fractions. Schools is a fucking joke, and because I take it seriously, I'm often the punchline.
High School: AP participation rate= 40%, AP pass rate= 2%, result = "honor 'students'" throwing pencils into the ceiling and twerking when teacher isn't looking. Can't focus in class because of (*looks at doctor's note*) all the stupid in the air. Some girl in AP world history realizes that submarines exist and aren't Hollywood fiction: mind blowing moment for her. Get fed up and duel enroll at a community college to get away from (*looks at doctors note again*) all the stupid. Accidentally pick the worst community college in the area because HS advisors are shit from (*eyes medical document*) all the stupid.
Duel enrollment: Pursue an A.S. in chemistry. Have to sit with meth heads and tweakers who blink 10x/second and try to sell me drugs every other lecture. Female class mate wants to be a nurse, tells me she can't remember without her book/notes during a recall exercise *facepalm*. Power through shity administration, classmates, professors, learning material, and schedule to graduate. 1460 SAT, Phi Theta Kappa, state honors, 500+ of shadowing/vocational hours, 3.957 unweighted GPA, HS diploma, A.S. in chemistry.
University: Denied attendance to tier one schools because Eurasian, accepted to tier 2 schools but they were $$$$, so went to local tier 3 school on full ride merit scholarship. Switch to Computer Science because potential $$$ and y = mx+b =

*Never heard of a public library
I was raised by a mentally absent abusive single mother with my three siblings, from the age of 5 I was left to look after my siblings and beaten for not only my "bad behaviour" but also theirs as I was supposed to be "in charge" of them. My mother always moved us around so we never got the chance to stay in one school and be encouraged to succeed; instead I was beaten when I struggled to complete homework assignments, by the time I was in high school I had no interest in learning as I was in full rebellion against my mother mode (who was also a radical feminist).
Despite all this.... I still apparently have more power + privilege than an affluent well educated black person with two parents just because I was born evil (straight, white, and male).
Now I am doing fine in life, I overcame the pathologies beaten into me and self educated myself into the IT sector, converted to Christianity, and married a wonderful woman.

Why does everyone in NY and LA hate themselves, this country, and everyone else?
I am a mexican immigrant grew up dirt poor. And not in the way that Americans use that phrase. I literally had dirt floors in the village I grew up in. But thanks to the choices my parents made I was able to study engineering in US. My parents knew from very early in their marriage that their life was not going to be easy but they wanted their children to have it a bit better. So they both worked themselves to death and saved every penny they could. I strive everyday to make them proud and not fail them.
I grew up in poor, rural "farmington" south Georgia and joined the Army, went to school and worked, graduated EIT and now a PE with no debt. There is NO excuse for staying in your neighborhood. There's always "a way out", you just don't want to do it.
yep too many people not able to make the sacrifices needed to actually succeed.
Comfort zones.
I also joined the Army (not out of high school and after making some poor life choices). I came out of my time with a degree, skills, and opportunities. Unfortunately, when I bring this up as an option for struggling people I know in real life or on the internet, there are guffaws.

Listen to this woman complaining who has so many options for schools and could take a test to get into a good one. So many smaller towns across America only have one high school or one middle school maybe two plus a Catholic school and everybody goes there, If it's a shitty school oh well that's what you get.
And that's not to say that they couldn't LOOK for scholarships and OTHER ways to get into the path they think they want.
P.S. Hi, Shelly. 👋
right 3 elementary then 2 at the time now 1 middle school and 1 high school.
I only had choices for where to go because we lived so far from any school that we were on the far edge of where different buses would go. The closest one was 20 miles if you drove, and much longer with the bus zig-zagging around.
Right? You either go to the shitty school or you drop out. Must be nice to have the opportunity she was provided.
I lived in a place like that my county only has like 10 towns in it and most are roughly as large as mine if not smaller. I think there is only one town that is bigger. So I only ever went to school in my hometown. No other opportunity really. And my family wasn't really well off either because of some decisions that were made. Though my mom left my dad and is now doing a lot better herself and I'm happy for her.
The computers all lined up in the background -- with nobody using them -- tell a story of their own.
Elephant in the room: IQ.
Any context of taking them seriously was absolutely lost the minute they tried to compare a boardgames to the complexities of life and the drive of the human spirit.
Not to mention the white people they got to I guess prop up the idea that they would challenge the position she was presenting is laughable. very obviously they already are sensitive to the topic which is why they don’t put up a fight or raise any questions probably any one of the people in the comments here would raise, poking holes in her dumb ass argument rendering her “ exposé” pretty useless
in GPA A is 4, D is 1 and F is 0. To get 0.13 you need to fail almost everything.
I saw the video on that one, and the guy skipped school like a third of the days, and didn't do many assignments. However good or bad his teachers were, or his ability to learn, he went entire semesters without meeting the minimum attendance or completing the minimum assignments that would be needed to pass any of the classes. But look at the statistics, and it's just a bad school where none of the students learn. Yeah, the school *is* terrible, but even a good school can't teach a kid that doesn't show up.
@@Br3ttM Exactly! Had he just shown up and tried, he could have actually had that excuse.
You know what started this mentality? Participation Trophies.
Talking about discrimination. I'm from the Netherlands former Armored Infantry sergeant, I got laid off because of cutbacks.
So I thought, ''Why not use my skill, that I gained working in the military for a job in law enforcement'' I knew how left wing the police was, so I wrote my application letter fitting their narrative. Got through first selection than the IQ test and verbal/written test completed and passed that part too. I was waiting for the next step in the selection process.
I waited and got this letter back.
"we are sorry to inform, that we will not continue your selection process. Because of the huge amount of interest for police officer positions and limited space on the academy. we not only look at the IQ test and verbal/written test but also travel distance, work experience, education level and cultural background.''
They send me the rapport back on the IQ test score marks where given between 0 and 20, 7 being just enough to pass I scored a 20 nearly three times the average , Verbal/written test I scored C1 level also two times above average because B1 level was required.
So then I make a checklist in my mind, what would be the disqualifying factor? Travel distance, negative its my province so everywhere would be easily reachable.
Work experience, negative worked for the military in my mind that counts as relevant work experience knowing how to handle stressful situation and knowing the c-abcde protocol, so I know how to treat shot wounds and I also know how to handle and operate in highest spectrum of violence.
Education level, negative I met the requirement being college educated.
Last one Cultural background, that was the only one I could Check off on the list for something that could disqualify me. For reference " cultural background'' means non native and politically correct saying non European.
I was pissed that I got disqualified, not because I wasn't good enough but that I was a Native and from European descent and they wanted more people from different/ethnic backgrounds. So if we talk about discrimination, minority quotas are a form of discrimination against the natives in some sense worse because you hire someone purely because of their skin colour so how isn't that racist?
Ha! I grew up in the middle of nowhere Minnesota. I took online college classes during my senior year of high school and my internet went out due to a snow storm. The day it went out was a day to take a quiz that I needed to get 100% on in order to take the exam the next day. I didn’t have a car and it was 10 miles to the closest local internet, it was -40, and there was 4 foot of fresh snow. My professor refused to let me take the quiz when my internet came back. I was super upset and had to drop the class that I had 110% in until that point because this exam would drop my grade to 40% due to the weight. He said I just didn’t feel ready and wanted more time. It sucked. It happens. It sucks to grow up in the sticks.
For children to do well in life they need to have a stable home, with regular balanced meals. They need to be set down to do their homework and told when to go to bed and when to get up. They need to be taught to respect their elders and authority figures, and they need to be told that hard work will be rewarded, and not have it drilled into their heads every day that the world is set up to keep them down.
What children need, is parents who do all of the things you said above, while also telling their kids to do the same thing.
Most parents today tell their kids to do A, then do themselves B, and don't understand when their kids are confused at the difference. Because kids wants to emulate their parents, but their parents are basically telling them, emulate people who are better than me.
@@mgtowdadUA-camSucksCoxks Parental modeling is very important.
@@JerrysJets I've not heard that term before. I LOVE when l have a thought, and there's an actual term or phrase for it.
What exactly is it? I get the concept based on the name, but am curious on the scope or thresholds associated with it.
@@mgtowdadUA-camSucksCoxks As a behaviorist we just call it modeling. It starts small like imitation of clapping hands or saying words and then progresses into complex behaviors such as lifestyles. What's interesting is that I see that children seem to want to follow the same behavioral life path as their biological parents even if they have been separated for some time. My stepdaughter, although separated from her biological father for years due to his alcoholism aspires to emulate him in many ways. If she does everything he did in the way he did it, it will likely not turn out so well. But, she'll have to learn that for herself.

Yeah, that's racist now. Now days the only thing that matters is the color of your skin-nothing else matters at all.
Facts. The only thing you can do given the fact that your circumstance is less than ideal is to put in the work rather than lament. Work has a higher prospect of getting you out than lamentation and seeking cosmic justice. Trying to equalize things creates more inequality.

Absolutely brilliant breakdown and counter argument. We need more people like you disproving these harmful stories.
“We saw that black students weren’t doing as well in their SAT’s…”
Wait until they read Charles Murray.
They're not going to do that 🤣
Funny part is that even the ones that are richer than poor white students will _still_ do worse on their SAT scores lol.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 must be racism
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Yes, Google SAT by income and race.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Exactly, they cant compete and every honest person knows it.
When they say whiteness they're talking about individuality/Democracy.
Exactly
Democracy sucks, mayonnaise
tbh though America is anti democratic, democracy is the worst governance type to exist, because it falls as soon as a majority shows no interest in maintaining democracy.
@@HiddenOcelot THANK YOU
@@mrpopularfromdowntow I mean the forefathers of America HATED democracy, John Adams was known to talk actual trash on democracy calling it the worst government type to ever exist (and the bloodiest, even compared to monarchy). So yeah, we weren't and never have been a democracy, we're a republic, and it's for that reason that we've lasted this long, though there are those trying to change that it seems.
Years ago, my job took me into many different homes of a diverse range of incomes.
Generally, white kids had many books in their bedrooms, while black kids had usually no books in their bedrooms.
This was before tablets became a thing.
Most of the black houses were single family households.
Most of the white families were 2 parent households.
I find it extremely sad that these people speak these things without any thought to their contradictions 🤦🏽
being the highest ranked student at the lowest ranked school is like being the prettiest waitress at denny's.
Tbh in Texas we have some schools that have graduation classes with like 12 people and getting into the too 10% allows you to go to an instate school tuition free. So sometimes making a smart decision might seem goofy but it's playing the system right with your choices.
What's the problem with that? Lol Some people can't help where they start.
Oh gosh she’s so oppressed. It must’ve been so hard to be handed special opportunities and scholarships that were based solely on your skin color. It must be so hard to be coddled and pander to just by flashing your skin. How have you ever managed to make it through the brutal life you’ve lived. The only way she’s oppressed is that she doesn’t have a second set of arms to carry all of the handouts and special interest she has piled on her.
I agree with essentially all of your arguments, although I think its worth pointing out that Austria, Norway, and Luxembourg actually spend more money per student than the United States.
I hate the whole premise of that board game. It doesn't make ANY sense to make a game about "Ability and Effort" and then have the whole game be left up to random rolls and random card draws. The analogy falls completely FLAT.
Striving to be the best you can be also makes you less government controllable.
Great video.
I think there is a correlation between crime and poverty. Especially when talking about certain crimes. In NYC you can see the crime data by neighborhoods and see the higher crime rates are in poorer neighborhoods and vice versa. This does not mean poverty causes crimes BUT the relationship cannot be ignored. I think race doesn't play a role as other factors do.
To deny this correlation is to deny Facts.
Not all crimes correlate to poverty, rape for example has a low correlation where burglary has a moderate to high correlation.
I admit I may be wrong and most scholarly work is inconclusive on the matter.
I am not saying poverty causes crime, but there is a correlation like taller people have larger shoe sizes and shorter people have smaller shoe sizes.
I accept the strength of the correlation is where the argument may be. I will look into it more.
The assumption is that there is some causation. But of course that would mean crime should have went up during the Great Depression and the last recession, which it didn’t. You can’t just look at crime and poverty though. You have to look at all factors, including things like iq, age, blood serum test levels, and gratification delay.
directional correlation might just be crime causes poverty. respect for property rights causes wealth. corruption within those dynamics is s seperate issue
@@pewtercamaro the Great Depression was a different time, different factors. If your argument relies on data from almost 100 years ago vs the last 20 year, you are not being reasonable.
@@DHormone I agree 100% on the crime causes poverty.
@@pewtercamaro I deal with facts and evidence. If you have a paper that show that please put it here so I can read it.
New York state spends, on average, 20,000 per student. This is the most of any state. Yet, it has a graduation rate of 49%. It isn't just about the amount of money is spent, but how that money is used. It is also about the culture students live in.
Laziness, crime and incompetence is DEI.
Sean is one of a kind on UA-cam… I trust his findings more than any other UA-cam channel (not even bothering with MSM…) They way he breaks down every single point with sound evidence is second to none! Happy I found this channel only 6 months ago!
Last time I checked the library has free internet.
As an immigrant who went to high school in Los Angeles I can definitely say it's cultural differences. In my home country if you didn't have good grades and participated in every class, you were considered a loser. In my high school (which had ~15% white population) if you studied and tried to participate/pay attention in class, you were considered a nerd/loser...
Just some outside perspective.
You have choices no matter where you live. My husband spent elementary school in the class corner and became a successful doctor through hard work, scholarship.
When I grew up in Central New York, I did not have the ability to take a test in order to go to a different or better high school. There was one public high school, so I and my peers had to suck it up and deal with it. This pampered recipient of not one but two forms of Affirmative Action is the truly "privileged" one here, compared to a lot of us. She has no idea how bad she looks to a lot of us. Despicable!
I still trying figure that out a test to be preselected to go high school,I though your guidance counselor hands you thick ass book to select the high school you want ????
Equality of opportunity vs Equality of outcome
Let me work for stuff vs Gimme free shit
Capitalism vs Socialism.
Reality vs Fantasy.
So no private Capitol then
So your exsplanation sounds very attractive I like Free stuff
What it should be
Capitalism is the only mechanisms that allows every individual the opportunity to succeed
Socialists= Marxist=
communist
Results in millions upon millions deaths while implemented results in 99 percent having nothing starving freezing killed if unable to work
@@lancethumel9277 - Those last 3 words aren’t the same equivalence
I would even say "equality" of opportunity is a dangerous idea and not relevant to Capitalism.
"Capitalism is a social system based on the recognition of individual rights, including property rights, in which all property is privately owned." - Ayn Rand
@@hyperreal - She uses her own skewed definition of capitalism as people were considered property in of themselves during slavery
I'm glad I stumbled onto this channel.
they are now receiving affirmative action diplomas
So what they are saying is when they need a Brain Surgeon they don't someone with merit based degrees. SMH lol
Yeah hopefully they are good, if not then they about to not be a surgeon for long.
I mean that's what's happening essentially in china and it's not resulting in anything good.
Why would they need a talented brain surgeon? You can only break the broken so much.
I’m sure that teaching kids that no matter how hard you work you’ll never make it in life has no effect on how those kids do in life. I’m sure that it doesn’t create anger within them and act out. Don’t people realize that they are self fulfilled prophecies when they teach kids this crap?🤦🏻♀️
The average American has access to more information than any other human in the entirely of human existence in the palm of their hand but waste that potential on social media.
I graduated from highschool with a 3.1. Got a scholarship that luckily everyone from my highschool was able to get. I score 800 on the SAT. Got into Oregon State university. Then graduated with a 3.1 from Oregon state. Then scored well on the pharmacy and the medical college admissions test. Got into medical school. Graduated with a 3.5 from medical school and now I’ve been a doctor for over 20 years. My journey was based almost solely on effort and ability. Anyone can do it if they are smart enough and work very hard.
Vox: "Why doesn't meritocracy work for people who look like us."
Me: "Barrack Obama, Oprah Winfrey, 90+% of the NFL/NBA, Rap/R&B/Pop music, every genre of film and television...do I need to go on?"
Yeah but... nuh uh.
No your racist
Haven't you heard, the NFL/NBA draft is racist and a modern day slave auction. Somehow.
@@Dirtboy-ef1lx ? Looking in the mirror?
I always love the argument of lack of resources regarding the performance in low-income schools. Where I'm from, those schools get tons of resources funneled into them. My mom even worked at one for a couple of years. She was shocked by the amount of outreach and extra curricular activities they had over the more middle-income school my brother was in at the time.
Let's just say that the school's test scores didn't not reflect those resources.
I was on the honor roll in middle and high school. Didn’t do anything for me. Honor roll is literally nothing but a trophy for motivation purposes. Nothing more.
The whole segment on the SATs was just outdated. Post 2020, many colleges/universities just don't require SAT/ACT scores for admissions anymore.
It was some peak irony when they brought out their board game, clearly custom made to support their argument, and it was titled 'Rigged'.
I've heard of a straw man, but I can't say I've ever seen a straw boardgame before.
AJW, usted es un orgullo para la comunidad puertorriqueña.
Thank you! Nearly everyone is on the honor roll.
Ive never seen a video that accidentally advocates for homeschooling before.
It's so insane how well off privileged people believe that making themselves a "victim" or "oppressed" is, not only virtuous, but also makes their arguments absolute truth in their eyes.
Or in Seth Rogan's case, being okay with having their car stolen.
History teaches us that although "equity" sounds desirable, its enforcement leads to significantly greater ills than disparate "outcomes." The centralized power/force required to enforce "equity" more often than not leads to Tyranny and Totalitarianism (and a collapsed economy.)
I grew up in a single parent household, dad was outta the picture since i was around 6-7, my mum left him because he was abusive and would beat us. He once broke my sisters ankle because he tried to rip her off the top of her bunk bed but she held on and got her wrist caught in the wood frame. A different time he threw a shoe at my brother head so hard that when my brother ducked out of the way it shatter the window behind him to bits.
My mum put herself through college while raising us, my oldest sister had to take care of us alot growing up. There were 5 kids in the house, My mum got her degree and became a midwife, my older sister studied hard and ended up getting a degree in computer science and now has a job in the IT sector of our countries nations mail service and makes bank.

Then we all have WPD at this point according to Leftardia.
I come from a single parent poor family, I grew up in the suburbs of Eastern LI, I did horrible in school though I passed every test easily, I have a 140 iq tested by guidance but I couldn't do homework, I just couldn't pay attention. I was a very good gymnast and ended up coaching it. I'm 35 now and got diagnosed last week with severe ADHD-C with anxiety, depression and it destroyed my personal life. Please if you have kids that act out or have trouble with home work get them tested for adhd. Undiagnosed adhd is a severe disability and goes unnoticed and we get introuble all of the time and it's not 100% our faults. Now that I've been on medication I feel much better but I still have loads of work to do.
Meritocracy is racist... except for the NBA and the Grammys.
"Meritocracy doesn't work!"
Then how did you succeed?
"Affir... Meritocracy worked for me, but not for people who look like me."
Gifted and Talented IS NOT a "Chosen" thing, the program in EVERY school I ever attended was simply "you seem smart, here is 3-4 times more work for you to do." It NEVER was a program that rewarded intelligence, only more busy work. The person who made this game knows absolutely nothing about the real world.
Yep you get all the same classes with 3x the workload and 10% of the help as a non gifted student.
Where I live at least, “Gifted” literally just means the special needs kids lol
i hated GT. i think they just wanted to keep me out of trouble.
