      Educated people are racist.

      This might be the same story as #1 posted months ago.. or one very similar to it.
      http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/01/09/professor-claims-meritocracy-in-math-class-is-tool-whiteness-report.html

      "meritocracy'.. there's another $10 word.

        This is another idiot teacher, but basically the same message.

        It kinda reminds me of that South African girl who said that science is racist because we don't teach magic, which all black people know magic is real.

          "Magic" is anything that people don't understand.  In other words..  people who think magic is real… are ignorant.

            As is typical with Fox news "journalists", they clearly neither read nor understood the linked PDF and so completely distort what is being said to feed some political "angry white conservative" audience. In fact there is nothing new here. It is already well established that teacher's expectations of particular student's capabilities effect the student's performance. There are numerous studies on this. Just google "teacher expectations affect student results".

            I wonder if there will be a fading of the rabid right's love affair with Rupert Murdoch's Fox Lies when they read:

            "Murdoch suggested that taking a liberal approach to H-1B visas might be hard to square with his immigration promises. But Trump seemed unconcerned, assuring Murdoch, “We’ll figure it out.”
            “What a fucking idiot,” said Murdoch, shrugging, as he got off the phone.

            Wolff, Michael. Fire and Fury (Kindle Locations 699-701). Little, Brown Book Group. Kindle Edition.

            Oh my mistake, the rabid right are insulated inside a bubble of ignorance and either don't read anything they might disagree with or can't.

              Your problem is that you have tunnel vision and don't see the truth beyond what is being fed to you.
              In the passage above, you should wonder how Wolff knew what Murdoch was thinking.. and what Murdoch said on the phone.  Is Wolff a mind reader?  Was Wolff listening in on the phone call?  Maybe Wolf was sitting on Rupert's lap when this was going on?

                Wow, the "intellectual" who's "read the book" doesn't understand what is really about?

                Obviously Murdoch told him about the phone conversation.

                  Why on earth would a multi-billionaire media mogul such as Rupert Murdoch say anything to a creepy nothing such as Michael Wolff?

                    Oh amazing. You really don't get it.

                    Michael Wolff wrote Murdoch's biography which was based on 50 hours of conversations and interviews with him as well as full access to his family and his employees.

                    Wolff is a Murdoch minion and has rushed in to Murdoch's defence in the past in relation to the phone hacking scandal. More than anything else, Fire and Fury is about Murdoch's vs. Bannon's fight for the "angry whole conservative" advertising revenue as well as Murdoch's strategy to begin to distance Fox from Trump so that News Corporation isn't destroyed when Trump is.

                    How do you distance yourself and your business from a failing Trump while keeping the revenue from your angry white conservative target market? Find someone else to blame Trump on.

                      Who doesn't get what?
                      You say Trump is failing?  Trump has already done far more than Sheik Obama did in 8 years.  One could build a whole lot of walls with that $10 trillion Obama pissed away and got nothing in return.

                        The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you’re hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward

                          I can understand why people of opposing parties attack the leaders of the opposing parties in the time period leading up to an election.. but continuing to attack AFTER the election is something new - instigated by Hillary Clinton.  Obama is also doing this.  Bush, Romney, nor McCain criticized Obama at all.

                            You are one special fucking snowflake. Obama was attacked more from the day he entered office than any president in modern history.
                            Democrats need to play by the Republican playbook and do it to the letter. As long as they are the minority they have to be the party of NO.
                            Republicans never once cared for the rule of order, th rule of law or any of that during Obama. Why should Democrats do any different. Especially considering that Trump is likely to be the first president in History that may not just get impeached but very well may get imprisoned.
                            Trump offers no answers or proof in anything he says other than "Believe me". Did you take Obama at his word? Then why should anyone take the word of a proven liar.

                              I had to read your comment several times to believe that you could post such garbage.  First of all a "snowflake" generally refers to a spineless malcontent liberal who bitches about everything. 
                              Then, you said that Obama was attacked more than any other president?  WHAT?  He was not only given a "free pass" by everyone including the media… he was handed a Nobel Peace Prize for doing absolutely nothing!

                                Obama is a proven liar and the media kept silent.

                                Obama said he would end no-bid contracts, but continued to use them.

                                He said he would end GWB era spying on US citizens, but massively expanded the programs.

                                The only thing Obama didn't lie about was him being born in Hawaii.

                                  One can debate where Obama was born.. (how would he know where he was born?)
                                  But what cannot be denied is that Obama was raised in muslim Indonesia by an Islamic cleric until the age of 13… and he didn't produce a birth certificate until forced to 1.5 years AFTER being elected president.. and the woman who certified his birth certificate mysteriously died in a plane crash 1 year after certifying that birth certificate.. when all other 20 people on the plane survived.
