Preferential treatment based on immutable characteristics. It's called discrimination. Great idea! What you're engaging in is transparent and glaringly obvious

Preferential treatment based on immutable characteristics. It's called discrimination. Great idea! What you're engaging in is transparent and glaringly obvious. It's subversive and downright malicious. Even in a cohesive and homogenous society, you are desperately looking for any and all means to split, fracture and divvy up the population in warring "diversity" groups that are constantly at odds with each other. There has to be something you can use right? Young children, the elderly, women, atheists or religious folk aren't a diversity group. They are just people. I know exactly what you're doing, and it doesn't work in cohesive functional societies. They reject it.

> Preferential treatment based on immutable characteristics. No. Not preferential. > It's called discrimination. Using the US as an example again, we only got our first female Supreme Court justice until the 1980s. Two hundred years of men. Never a female President. This is pretty concrete evidence for discrimination against them in American society. Somehow, trying to recognize that gets twisted backwards into the act itself. A cohesive, functional society seeing significant gendered threats and violence: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2621gzvkdo https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2621gzvkdo Why are black people “diverse” but women or Jews or blind people are not? You keep dodging the question. Help me understand - what’s “diverse” and what’s “normal homogenous”? How do you determine which is which?

  It's very simple, I've lived in cities that have "black neighborhoods", pakistani neighborhoods, muslim neighborhoods, asian neighborhoods, indian neighborhoods and gay neighborhoods, and many more hoods in just one city. That's diversity for you. People don't live together, they live appart, that's a fractured, atomized society. Homogenous countries don't have this, people just comfortably live together. There's no blind neighborhood, amputee neighborhood or woman neighborhood... that's ridiculous. And people don't constantly think which "hood" they represent or need special discriminatory "programmes" to forcefully include "everyone" from every "hood" who demonstrably don't want to live together and want to form their own hoods instead. Way less woman on average being interested in programming isn't a sign of discrimination. That's completely normal. Re: link. Not interested discusing anecdotes of all sorts of warring internet weirdos. Is not an argument.

      Black neighborhoods and china towns are anecdotes? Interesting! It's important for you to understand that I'm not trying to convince you of anything, you already have pronouns in bio, that's like trying to explain to a religious cultist that their particular god isn't real. Ie. waste of time. The point is to bring out the crazy out of you for everyone else to see. Which you have already done by implying that you think women, elderly and children, handicapped (ie. blind people) are a diversity group. And all countries are diverse just because they have them. LOL And you already displayed your incessant desire to desperately scramble for some ways to fracture cohesive societies. The point was for you to brightly manifest those malicious diversant properties and not to convert a cultist.

      If people naturally self segregate into their own communities mostly by race, doesn't that prove that diversity is a failed endeavor and against the will of the people? Go look at any census map of a major us metropolitan city. You will find that people OF THEIR OWN VOLITION self segregate into living areas by race. The onus is on the people claiming that 'diversity is our strength ' to prove it. So far with the majority of people self segregating worldwide by race; they are categorically wrong.
