I watched that clip and all I could think about is how anyone could watch former POTUS Obama speaking, and then voluntarily decide they didn't want anymore of that.  They wanted Trump. 

I too struggle to understand how anybody voted for Trump over (checks notes) a third Obama term?

Do the KAs still do the "Old South" weekend, complete w/ Confederate uniforms and rebel flags?  I'm guessing, yes. 

I mean given that they're celebrating some bullshit that took place in a 4 year span in the 1860's back when I was in college in 2003, I think it's pretty safe to say "yes, they still do that shit."

[Born to Run 6568]

I was gonna say, was that a serious question?

I was on the 40 acres in the mid 90s when the KAs were openly racist. No idea if they got banned to Bolivia or how much shit has changed. For example do all the little shits in Westlake choose Old Miss, Auburn etc for the "culture" that's now missing at UT?

Couldn't answer w/r/t Westlake in specific, but that's exactly how it was at Midwestern State in the aforementioned year. I've no reason to believe it's changed one bit. Again, they have a fucking night every year where the guys dress like Ashley Wilkes in uniform and the girls dress like Scarlett O'Hara, and in this case, they did it on a property that looks like fucking Tara. And they had the nerve to look puzzled when the one black guy in our group walked out in the middle of their presentation during rush week. Just awful people.

KA at Alabama banned the confederate Old South costumes around 10-12 years ago. Auburn KAs didn’t stop wearing them until national KA banned everything Old South in 2016.

Plus, old school Old South SUCKED. All the other big spring parties were beach themed or pirate themed or nautical, so as a girl you got to wear something cute and seasonal appropriate.

If you went to Old South you had to wear heavy ass ugly polyester southern belle dresses with hoop skirts and crinolines and shit. And that get up was hot as hell to be partying in in fucking May in Alabama.

Tucker blames Fauci for pandemic....using evidence, an article written by Nicholas Wade, "who for more than fifty years has been one of the preeminent science writers of the world"

I wonder why Nicholas Wade doesn't work for New York Times anymore...

Oh that's right, he wrote a book misinterpreting other people's research to say blacks were genetically inferior to whites. 

https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2014/08/geneticists-decry-book-race-and-evolution

Quote

A best-seller by former New York Times science writer Nicholas Wade about recent human evolution and its potential effects on human cultures has drawn critical reviews since its spring publication. Now, nearly 140 senior human population geneticists around the world, many of whose work was cited in the book, have signed a letter to The New York Times Book Review stating that Wade has misinterpreted their work. The letter criticizes “Wade’s misappropriation of research from our field to support arguments about differences among human societies,” and is slated to appear in the 10 August issue of the Book Review. It’s available online today.

The book, A Troublesome Inheritance: Genes, Race and Human History, contends that human races are a biological reality and that recent human evolution has led to racial differences in economic and social behavior.  In the book, Wade suggests that such genetic differences may help explain why some people live in tribal societies and some in advanced civilizations, why African-Americans are allegedly more violent than whites, and why the Chinese may be good at business.

The book has received some blistering reviews from both scientists and science writers, including one by David Dobbs in The New York Times Book Review, and some scientists weighed in with blogs as well. Now, geneticists have crafted a joint response, concluding that “there is no support from the field of population genetics for Wade’s conjectures.” The list of signatories reads like a who’s who of researchers in the field and includes such well-known geneticists as Evan Eichler of the University of Washington, Seattle; David Goldstein of Duke University; and Michael Hammer of the University of Arizona.

The letter was spearheaded by five population geneticists who had informally discussed the book at conferences, says co-organizer Rasmus Nielsen of the University of California, Berkeley. “There was a feeling that our research had been hijacked by Wade to promote his ideological agenda,” Nielsen says. “The outrage … was palpable.” Molly Przeworski of Columbia University, another organizer, says the group “tried to contact population geneticists whose work had been cited by Wade.” They had no trouble getting signatures, racking up 100 within the first week, she says.

The letter organizers and the editors of the Book Review kept the letter under embargo until its publication today and declined to make it available to Wade for an immediate response. But in previous ripostes to the book’s critics, most notably in a 19 June Huffington Post article titled “Five Critics Say You Shouldn’t Read This ‘Dangerous’ Book,” Wade charged that his critics were “indoctrinated in the social-science creed that prohibits any role for evolution in human affairs” and contended that the book’s central argument “has not been challenged by any serious scientist.”

Letter organizers say they hope to demonstrate that the opposite is true. For example, Sarah Tishkoff of the University of Pennsylvania says she signed the letter because “[m]y own research was used as scientific proof of concepts such as there being between three and five races.” Tishkoff says that her work on the genetics of diverse African populations does not support this claim. Adds David Reich of Harvard University: “Our findings do not even provide a hint of support in favor of Wade’s guesswork.”

*Update, 9 August, 6:05 a.m.:  Nicholas Wade has issued a statement in response to the letter. He writes:

This letter is driven by politics, not science. I am confident that most of the signatories have not read my book and are responding to a slanted summary devised by the organizers.

As no reader of the letter could possibly guess, “A Troublesome Inheritance” argues that opposition to racism should be based on principle, not on the anti-evolutionary myth that there is no biological basis to race.

Unfortunately many social scientists have long denied that there is a biological basis to race. This creed, prominent throughout the academic world, increasingly impedes research.  Biologists risk damaging their careers if they write explicitly about race. Needless to say, this makes it hard to explore the different evolutionary paths that human populations have taken through history since the dispersal from the African homeland 50,000 years ago.

“A Troublesome Inheritance” seeks to explain how race can be understood without racism. … I hope that readers will see through the lack of specifics in their charges and judge my book for themselves.

Perhaps I could point out an error in one of the few specific statements in their letter. They charge me with saying that “recent natural selection has led to worldwide differences in I.Q. test results.”   I say no such thing. What I do say (p. 193) is that “It may be hazardous to compare the IQ scores of different races if allowance is not made for differences in wealth, nutrition and other factors that influence IQ.”  …

I would urge all the geneticists who signed the letter, several of whom I count as friends, to now read my book and judge to what extent, if any, their condemnation was justified.

Meanwhile, Peter Doocy sitting there at the press briefing today asking Jen Psaki questions about outdoor COVID transmission and cites a recent NYT article. Bold as brass to mention others's work Peter because you're too lazy to go read and review scientific papers yourself. Too bad Fox gutted their original news room or you could ask one of them to help you out.

I can sympathize with reporters sharing work/source material but in addition to Fox just bullshitting and outright lying, nothing betrays Fox's tabloidy entertainment backbone as much as this does. "Here, I'mma gonna reach into your article and swipe one or two phrases so I can turn around and ask a gotcha question and write an article for that. Then Tucker will continue with his Fauci bashing based on whatever misleading piece Doocy writes.

They fucking made postcards with that photo on it. (And did so routinely with other lynchings.) My sister met her husband when they were in school at Marion College (now Indiana Wesleyan and apparently moving aggressively into the for-profit online educational world). I have no doubt that, if my brother-in-law had been a student in Marion, IN at the time, he would’ve been in that picture and would’ve sent a postcard back to his family in Minnesota.

My sweet mom denied it happened--despite existing footage or full on confessions as in the case of Emmett Till.  We talk about holocaust deniers and compare bad people to Nazis but we don't have to--those types have always existed here in the USA, well before Nazis.  And we continuously bend over backwards to appeal to these fanatics.  Hey, how about a bipartisan commission into your crimes on January 6th?

There were 6 Evangelical colleges/universities within a short drive of that incident, and three more nearby if you cross state lines. When I attended one of those in the 80's/90's, there were still "sundown" towns in this part of central Indiana.

You can wonder how powerful their Gospel was, or how dedicated their faculty, staff, and students were to preaching the good news and living a life that modeled Jesus if such a thing might happen nearby. Maybe they were too heavenly minded they were no earthly good.

I, on the other hand, believe wholeheartedly that these violent acts of racism and the sectarian, seperatist educational institutions are but strange fruit growing from the same soil.
