What diversity really means...

This is a response to all illiterates and all-acceptors out there who honestly confuse diversity with acceptance or forfeiture. And hell, nobody says "wrong" like Kevin Spacey.

If diversity is sooooo important, shouldn’t we have laws against race mixing?

If it is valuable to have different ethnic groups around, then why are we miscegenating them out of existence?

@EnglishEthnicPride2 I do not believe you are quite getting it. For one, it would take a lot of cross-breeding to completely eliminate persons solely of one race. For another, diversity is about a hell of a lot more than skin colour, and this is the most important point that the world at large is not getting. Lastly, it has been known for some time that genetic variation is far more pronounced within a race than between different races.

@mtb416 Yes, but that does not mean, as some seem to be thinking, that real, genuine diversity of thought and culture is not something worth working toward.

[mtb416]

@aspie182 Diversity is incessantly used as a 'muzzle' or as a shroud to cover up the true intentions of the purveyor. Diversity is usually a ploy.

[aspie182]

@mtb416 No, it does not. I am not sure what words you read from this person, but they are a calculated strawman used by many bigots to attack the concept (variations exist, like "affirmative blaction" et al). Ironically, my video was meant to be an attack upon the flipside of that coin, the people who would use diversity as a muzzle against those fighting people who would prevent us from overcoming the last true hurdle we face in achieving actual diversity on this planet.

@aspie182 Your video supports trigga1uk's words, so I am a bit confused as to why you attack them.

@trigga1uk Again, all anyone needs to do in order to see that you clearly do not understand diversity at all is look at your statements about it.
