Physics education focuses on exciting areas of research. There isn't much interesting work currently taking place in fluids. We consider it a solved problem. The fact that we drive cars through fluids is completely irrelevant.
If violations to improve ESG score are a poor risk:reward gamble, what are the rewards of these other violations that "happen all the time"? Are the rewards even greater than improvement of ESG score?
> ESG funds will buy more of your company’s stock if you have a higher percentage of women on boards, for example, and other metrics.
This is as close to a neutral and objective description of ESG as could be written in English! That is not grievance, and it should not be downvoted as such.
> Remind me again, in the US, how many white people were sold in to chattel slavery?
Even an answer of zero doesn't address or contradict my original point.
There's no such thing as "neoslavery". Racism was certainly used after the war to reduce labor solidarity between the white working class and the newly-freed black laborers, however, that fact also doesn't address or contradict my original point.
Now this is the second time you're ignoring the context of the supply of the very slaves being discussed, so I determine that you are not discussing honestly.
You quote the Cornerstone Speech correctly, which was a post-hoc rationalization, a propaganda effort to encourage millions of fighting age men to lay down their lives for an economic system that was based on slavery which, I've already proven, was not an essentially racist institution.
On the other hand, King's notorious speech sounds absolutely nothing like Kendi or other current anti-racists, so evidently there's quite a gap between the two stances, and it's dishonest to deny it.
> Your theory is that, for example, turning people into property based on race was not racist? If so, I don't think there's much point in a discussion here.
Given that the enslaved had been so subjugated by others of the very same race, how could the institution itself possibly be called essentially racist?
You don't write unit tests for heap sort, you write them for sort. Then you get them to pass using heap sort. Later, you replace heap sort with tim sort, and you can write it quickly and with confidence, because the test suite shows you when you've succeeded.
> It's likely a preliminary filter to the audience. "If you don't think qanon is a problem and don't want to hear me talk about reasons why people believe it, stop reading".
Meanwhile, the world's increasing complexity is exactly why people turn to explanations like QAnon. To help them grapple and make sense of it.
There is nobody who needs more to understand that nobody is driving!
I hear repeatedly that "real wages have been constant since 1970". What started happening around then? Labor follows the same supply demand curves as any other commodity.
