No, I think it was stupid, just that your comparison is more stupid because one is a thing people do on a daily basis (singing along to music) and the other is something I’ve never seen done ever beyond theater and sketch productions.

Do you act out scenes from movies ever (except the occasional comedy one liner)? Not unless you are a theater actor. Is singing along to a song something pretty much everyone does? Yes. To compare them is ludicrous. Not that they should be singing along, but the comparison might make you more dumb than them.
That’s because the title implies that is what they were doing. While I wouldn’t do it, singing along to a popular song is about the least offensive way to say something potentially offensive.
At least Drew doesn’t have the “Don’t Bother to Vote” article to haunt him like Alex Pareene does. Drew was just as wrong as all the prognosticators.

I didn’t realize anti-discrimination takes were the new racist...hmm.
“The moral imperative not to discriminate cannot pragmatically be put into practice absent diversity.”
Like I said, you are just describing discrimination. Not implicit bias. I’m not asserting that people aren’t discriminatory, I am asserting that we should stop discrimination. You seem to be asserting that instead we should get enough diversity in place so that even though everyone discriminates for their in-group,…
That isn’t true. There is a huge amount of data claiming that unconscious bias exists. Where they falter quite a bit is tying unconscious bias to conscious actions. Think about it. If don’t know you are having a feeling or a bias, how could you possibly act on it? Here are some articles about the fallibility of the…
“It’s 180 degree reversal of national morality in less than a human lifespan. And you’re trying to tell me morality doesn’t change.”
I’m not a post-modernist so I don’t accept the “everything is subjective” horrible takes of Foucault and Derrida.
You are conflating two things. We both agree that discrimination is morally wrong. There is definitely a pragmatic argument for diversity of opinion and viewpoint. What you claim to be the justification for diversity, is just the moral justification to not discriminate. For instance, if your organization doesn’t…
“that the government routinely uses taxpayer money to pay for maintenance on infrastructure that the businesses profit from.”
Am I crazy in saying that didn’t look intentional to me?
The least I will tip on a bill is $2. So if I get a $3 beer, the bartender gets $2 dollars. If I buy 20 $3 dollar beers, I tip 20% and the bartender gets $12 dollars.
There is no moral justification for diversity. There is only a moral justification to not discriminate. These aren’t the same thing.
LMFAO, but for 99% of the population, gender is the same as sex and sex is 100% biological. So while, the 1% of GNC folks may buck the trends, the studies are about sex and sex is biological.
‘Chevalier argued, but their words were similar. “The effect is the same: to intimidate and control women, whether an individual wife or girlfriend or all of this person’s female coworkers”’
That isn’t the original premise of the statement though.
