>More importantly, affirmative actions essentially posits that black people cannot get ahead because of an inherent characteristic - skin color. It says that race effectively determines the capacity of a black without other intervention. It's demeaning.

That's ridiculous, and purposefully disingenuous. Systemic racism is the reason they can't get ahead, not their skin color.

Your ranting Gish Gallop [1] and transparent attempts to carry Eric Raymond's water are incoherent and intellectually dishonest. And that's entirely inappropriate for this forum.

Granting you the benefit of the doubt that you're not already a regular one of ESR's spandex-clad [2] flying monkeys [3], I suggest you take your bullshit to his blog, where your pseudoscientific beliefs will be welcomed with open arms, and you will find a rabidly libertarian audience (including washed-up internet celebrities like Tron Guy) who will appreciate and reinforce your white supremacist propaganda. You'll enjoy laying down with those dogs, because you've already got fleas.

End of discussion, Ludwig [5].

"It cannot be denied that Fascism and similar movements aiming at the establishment of dictatorships are full of the best intentions and that their intervention has, for the moment, saved European civilization. The merit that Fascism has thereby won for itself will live on eternally in history." -Ludwig von Mises (1927), the pseudoscientific idol of ludwig@mises.gq

"The liberal champions of equality under the law were fully aware of the fact that men are born unequal and that it is precisely their inequality that generates social cooperation and civilization. Equality under the law was in their opinion not designed to correct the inexorable facts of the universe and to make natural inequality disappear." -Ludwig von Mises, the racist idol of ludwig@mises.gq

"Nor is it any longer of greater significance that the political rights of women are restricted, that women are denied the vote and the right to hold office... The right to occupy public office is denied women less by the legal limitations of their rights than by the peculiarities of their sexual character." -Ludwig von Mises, the sexist idol of ludwig@mises.gq
