Some of my views on scapegoating and how it's always the weakest in society who are chosen for that role. Of course I am a leftist so am not offended by claims to that effect.
I don't believe in social darwinism as it tends to ignore the reality that a lower status in society does not necessarily stem from genetic inferiority. Perhaps your own ancestors were poor and illiterate but their offspring, given the chance, were able to rise above that.
Yes, I did quote G.W. Bush.
I've accomplished enough academically that I find it hilarious when claims are made that certain groups are stupid, so don't even bother.
If you have any questions about my ancestry you can refer them to your grandma. I happen to be the same ancestry as her :)
