is diversity important? yes. how can we achieve diversity? by making underrepresented people qualified for high or coveted positions. how do you do this? by making them invest the same kind of effort as the rest of society. can this be achieved? of course. the underrepresented population has to be goaded and pushed, given extra help to prepare for education, inspirational leaders and workers to help them. liberals can roll up their sleeves and work tirelessly as teachers or tutors, doing the tough grunt work, like the woman in the 'miracle worker'. but liberals want to keep their hands clean. they don't want to work closely with the underrepresented people. liberals want to watch movies, write magazine articles, play videogames, socialize at cafes, join the academe, sit around and spout political sermons and make protest posters. they want fun or symbolism, rather like rightwingers who talk tough about war but didnt serve in the military and got their kids into the national guard. liberals want to sound highminded but don't want to dirty their hands with the work that they really belive in. this is why they love affirmative action. so much easier to set a quota for the underrepresented group than volunteer or seek jobs where they really have to declare a daily war on inattentiveness ignorance, and laziness. this is no different than some schools passing and graduating students who don't even qualify. when liberls do associate with the underpriveleged, instead of making the poor face up to their shortcomings the guiltridden, frightened liberals just encourage the poor or underrepresented group to blame mainstream society. liberals feel good about themselves, the underrepresented group never looks at itself honestly, and nothing of substance is done. this is all the funnier when affirmative action favors rich blacks over poor whites, and dumb midwest anglo goyim over NY jews in ivy league schools.
