90% Of Whites Have Few Or No Black Friends

…The Guardian has seen details of the survey, to be released this week by the Commission for Racial Equality.

It shows that a majority of white people do not share the bonds of close friendship with their fellow black, Asian or Muslim Britons, meaning they may lack the empathy that close contact can bring. The CRE warns this leaves swaths of the population open to believing the worst of different ethnic and religious groups.

the premise of this ridiculous piece is that whites bestow friendship. talk about some racially unequal bullshit. it’s my experience that the most bigoted people around are usually the ones manipulating everyone into positions of guilt over pet characteristics. brings to mind one of many meetings i had at an association where some felt it quite important that the “race and ethnicity” of each member be known. there were many pious arguments over how people would feel being asked to pick one flavor over a mix. as the database administrator responsible for dealing with the many ramifications of the proposed changes, i asked why they were necessary. the serious reply: “well, we don’t want to pigeonhole people.”

unable to take anymore, i blurted out, “if you don’t want to pigeonhole people, then why have we spent all these meetings plotting a strategy to do just that? don’t ask what race and ethnicity they are at all. not pigeonholing doesn’t get any simpler!”

there was no answer other than a sheepish, busted look, followed by, “well, this is what ms. blah blah [queen of egalitarianism as long as the numbers add up to her formula] wants.”

the very people charged with ensuring that we all become race blind were guaranteeing that we never could. it’s a disease that can only be cured by pushing such race baiters off their hallowed pedestals of vapor. they are the problem.

incidentally, when they asked me to become the IT manager there, ms. blah blah found out about it and sent a memo to my prospective boss, saying, “i understand that you’ve asked charley hardman to be the MIS manager. this is just to remind you that the proposal must be reviewed by the affirmative action department before blah blah blah.”

yeah, it would be a real tragedy to have a white male manager without looking through all the stats first. if they hired me, that would have made 2 white male supervisors on the same floor. not good! management on the floor would’ve looked like this:
 - black female
 - black male
 - white male
 - white male
 - black female
 - asian female
 - white female
 - black female
 - black female
 - indian male
 - black female

thank god for people committed to making sure the colors and sexes add up right.

    [...] race-centric, homo-centric types are normally the most “bigoted” of all. [...]

    [...] “pretty surprising finding”, sammy bo’? did i miss a key detail? the study measured “disparities that still exist in society”, or did it measure perception of racial bias? it is possible, dummkopf, that the more largesse is handed out by society masters, the more the recipients deem it inadequate. what you find surprising is human nature.
