Come off it and just admit you don't give a damn...nay, you prefer when racial minorities don't have the same opportunities. Then the rest of us can get back to ignoring how content you are with being among the favored class

About artificial diversity? Nope, I have no f*cks to give. It's all ideologically driven. I don't care about how many blacks or how many whites are on a team, I just care how the team plays. You're missing the entire point, which is no surprise.

It was getting worse but it was really bad in the non-upper echelon,non professional areas. One of the reasons why I took an early retirement.

It's really got so strange the last 8 years led by this current administration that I don't even recognize the country anymore. Most of my black friends and colleagues want nothing of it but yet the liberal ideology is being crammed down everyone's throat under the guise of "Celebrating Diversity", or in other words "celebrate diversity or else....".
 
As for swimming, maybe whites are more buoyant than blacks.
 
How come diverse always means "not white".

The NBA could use some diversification, but that would be "racist" because it would mean adding white players.

I Googled "NBA needs diversity" and got a story crying about the lack of "racial minorities" in front offices.

Gag!

Everyone should get a gold medal too. It sends a poor message if these athletes have to endure the emotional stress of competition.

The medals need to be changed. Gold, silver, and bronze are too light colored. We need to create a black medal, a brown medal, and a yellow medal to acknowledge the "people of color".

Given that you seem to want to play "Spot The Jew" all the time, I think that your comments on race or ethnicity carry the same gravitas as a boot full of warm piss. Go bother other people. We don't tend to care for your racism and anti-semitism here at DP.
 
How "diverse" are our Winter Olympics teams? If they aren't a lot of blacks does that mean that we are "systematically racist"?

I just threw out a possible explanation. Sheesh.
