fred will tell you herein about the struggles of math in school for some of those who must be raised up;

Headline “Fairfax school board eliminates admissions test at Thomas Jefferson High School” probably America’s most demanding school for science and technology.

Oh god, Oh god. Who is on the school board? Predictably education majors, the dimmest, lowest SAT-scoring dregs of the professional classes, the horror of smart students subjected to their grade-school mentalities. But not just ed majors. Probably also psychologists, sociologists, bored housewives, and liberal-artsy painfully virtuous men alight with Civic Consciousness. Oh god.

TJ, the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology, is a jewel in the country’s collapsing system of education, a bright light in the growing darkness. Its kids are scary smart, among the best of young minds, going on to CalTech, MIT, Harvard. This year 132 were National Merit Semi-finalists, putting them in the upper one half of one percent. Entry was, until now, by a demanding test of intelligence, though we must not so describe it as that would be racist, and manifest White Privilege, even though most of the students are Asian. Youngsters at this level need a rich academic diet to avoid boredom, to include among other things serious mathematics. Which, I will bet, not one of the earnest, uplift espousing, self-consciously good, droopy-IQed of the Board has the slightest grasp. How much is three factorial? Hint: It’s a number between five and seven. You may have five guesses.

TJ was a haven for the smart. But now Fairfax County is going to drop the intelligence test — though, remember — we must never call it an intelligence test. Why drop the test? Do you even ask? It is because not enough blacks get in. The purpose of a high-end school is to admit blacks.

TJ, I can say with confidence, would be happy with any number of black students if they passed the examination. It would be happy with box turtles if they passed the test. But they do not, as neither do blacks, so we must abandon the test and admit the unqualified. Free stuff.

Is there nothing we will not degrade, corrupt, or discard to make minorities look good? No. Silly me, even to ask.........read more.....

 raised a quaker in a situation that left us moving a lot i lived in lots of situations many with lots of black friends and neigbors, i saw some that matched this and some that didn't;

This is part of our continuing series of accounts by readers of how they shed the illusions of liberalism and became race realists.

Coming from a small suburb of Cleveland and graduating from a high school that had no non-white students in 1978, I guess I was one of those “people are people”-minded persons. I never thought there were significant differences between races.

The first time I experienced anything that gave me pause was while working a job at a children’s shoe store in a community that had a high number of blacks. I remember black customers walking right past me to go to a black sales associate many times. I remember the tricks that they’d try to use when attempting to return the high end shoes a few days after Easter, Christmas, etc. and taking the tape off the bottom of the shoes that they used to try to keep the soles from getting too scuffed. I saw blacks try to buy items with a credit card that was cut in half and taped together or try to use a check with an ID that didn’t match the name on the check. Parents would let their kids destroy the store and dare someone to say something. They’d argue about the price of something and cause a scene. One time a black woman came in with a little boy in tow. He looked as if she had just yanked him off of a huge dirt pile. Dirt caked on his sweaty feet, no socks, filthy clothes. I had to get him some booties to wear to measure his feet and try some shoes on him. This, even though his mother was dressed to the nines. I’m glad the child was too young to understand shame. His mother had none.

Months later, I got a job at the local bus transportation company. I was happy to have the job and brought, in my opinion, a great work ethic with me. I soon found out that others didn’t have that same ethic once they were off of the union probationary period. After six months, they went from knocking the jobs out, showing up on time, actually being at work while on the clock, being helpful and getting along with others, to sitting and watching others do their work and being totally insubordinate. They didn’t feel bad about it. No conscience at all. I never stopped working the way I always had. They thought I was a fool. They’d try to get me to stop working and get mad when I wouldn’t. I will say that’s when I began growing resentful. I couldn’t stop working the way I always had and they wouldn’t pull their weight. I worked in four different departments within the same company for thirty years and each department was the same. There were always people riding around on the shoulders of others. Always.

A lesson in opportunistic traits and seeing the true color of things appeared while working at one facility in particular. I’m a woman and a lifelong motorcycle enthusiast. The women of this facility were always complimenting me on my bike, asking questions and saying “I’ve always wanted to learn to ride but I’m scared,” or “I don’t know anyone who can teach me.” Well, I helped them out. I gave them lessons, shared so many important tips that take any biker years to learn, helped them with their temporary licenses, let them use one of my bikes to take the riding test with and took my free time to check out bikes they were thinking about buying. I even rented a trailer and hauled one to a woman’s home for her. No problem. I never thought anything of it. Then I saw these little flyers circulating at work and taped on walls. “The women” were forming a motorcycle club. A motorcycle club for women of color.

I was slow to develop a sense of racial identity, but I got there........https://www.amren.com/blog/2020/11/black-behavior-black-identity/

 in this article caitlin shows you how and why 'our free press' presents much of the crap that it does;

People who are only just beginning to research what’s wrong with the world often hold an assumption that mainstream news reporters are just knowingly propagandizing people all the time. That they sit around scheming up ways to deceive their audiences into supporting war, oligarchy and oppression for the benefit of their plutocratic masters.

Once you’ve learned a bit more you realize it’s not quite happening that way. Most mainstream news reporters are not really witting propagandists–those are to be found more in plutocrat-funded think tanks and other narrative management firms, and in the opaque government agencies which feed news media outlets information designed to advance their interests. The predominant reason mainstream news reporters say things that aren’t true is because in order to be hired by mainstream news outlets, you need to jack your mind into a power-serving worldview that is not based in truth.......read and watch more.....
