- sin7 5y agoAre you talking about black kids? Because I can assure you that no one gives a single fuck about their feelings or any uncomfortable differences.
- kar5pt 5y agoThe differences have been proven to be due to socioeconomic factors, not biological ones. But I'm guessing that fact makes _you_ uncomfortable.
- Auracle 5y agoNope, I'm certainly open to that and in fact I would love for that to be true. It's far from "proven" though. Most evidence points in the opposite direction. Adoption makes for some great data. Of course, good luck doing any type of legitimate research on that nowadays without being cancelled. I understand why it's something that we've collectively decided to ignore, but my entire life my state has also been throwing money at the "achievement gap" to no avail. You can't help fix a problem when you're coming at it with wrong assumptions.
