The black/white experiment has failed. For almost 150 years the United States has been conducting an experiment. The subjects of the experiment: black people and working-class whites. The hypothesis to be tested: Can a people taken from the jungles of Africa and forced into slavery be fully integrated as citizens in a majority white population? The whites were descendants of Europeans who had created a majestic civilization. The former slaves had been tribal peoples with no written language and virtually no intellectual achievements. Acting on a policy that was not fair to either group, the government released newly freed black people into a white society that saw them as inferiors. America has struggled with racial discord ever since. Decade after decade the problems persisted but the experimenters never gave up. They insisted that if they could find the right formula the experiment would work, and concocted program after program to get the result they wanted. They created the Freedman’s Bureau, passed civil rights laws, tried to build the Great Society, declared War on Poverty, ordered race preferences, built housing projects, and tried midnight basketball. Their new laws intruded into people’s lives in ways that would have been otherwise unthinkable. They called in National Guard troops to enforce school integration. They outlawed freedom of association. Over the protests of parents, they put white children on buses and sent them to black schools and vice versa. They tried with money, special programs, relaxed standards, and endless handwringing to close the “achievement gap.” To keep white backlash in check they began punishing public and even private statements on race. They hung up Orwellian public banners that commanded whites to “Celebrate Diversity!” and “Say No To Racism.” Nothing was off limits if it might salvage the experiment. Some thought that what W.E.B. Du Bois called the Talented Tenth would lead the way for black people. A group of elite, educated blacks would knock down doors of opportunity and show the world what blacks were capable of. There is a Talented Tenth. They are the black Americans who have become entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors and scientists. But ten percent is not enough. For the experiment to work, the ten percent has to be followed by a critical mass of people who can hold middle-class jobs and promote social stability. That is what is missing. Through the years, too many black people continue to show an inability to function and prosper in a culture unsuited to them. Detroit is bankrupt, the south side of Chicago is a war zone, and majority-black cities all over America are beset by degeneracy and violence. And blacks never take responsibility for their failures. Instead, they lash out in anger and resentment. Across the generations and across the country, as we have seen in Detroit, Watts, Newark, Los Angeles, Cincinnati, and now Ferguson, rioting and looting are just one racial incident away. The white elite would tell us that this doesn’t mean the experiment has failed. We just have to try harder. We need more money, more time, more understanding, more programs, more opportunities. But nothing changes no matter how much money is spent, no matter how many laws are passed, no matter how many black geniuses are portrayed on TV, and no matter who is president. Some argue it’s a problem of “culture,” as if culture creates people’s behavior instead of the other way around. Others blame “white privilege.” But since 1965, when the elites opened America’s doors to the Third World, immigrants from Asia and India–people who are not white, not rich, and not “connected”–have quietly succeeded. While the children of these people are winning spelling bees and getting top scores on the SAT, black “youths” are committing half the country’s violent crime–crime, which includes viciously punching random white people on the street for the thrill of it, that has nothing to do with poverty. The experiment has failed. Not because of culture, or white privilege, or racism. The fundamental problem is that white people and black people are different. They differ intellectually and temperamentally. These differences result in permanent social incompatibility. Our rulers don’t seem to understand just how tired their white subjects are with this experiment. They don’t understand that white people aren’t out to get black people; they are just exhausted with them. They are exhausted by the social pathologies, the violence, the endless complaints, the blind racial solidarity, the bottomless pit of grievances, the excuses, the reflexive animosity. The elites explain everything with “racism,” and refuse to believe that white frustration could soon reach the boiling point. They will be the only ones who are surprised when real revolution comes to the United States, and that it is white people who lead the revolt.
purealpha - what made you so jaded over the last year or two? Something has obviously happened in your personal life. You weren’t always so…aggressive on here. I remember you as a normal dude living in Worst Korea, doing your thing. Now you’re an asshole. There’s nothing wrong with that. I’m just wondering what facilitated the change in behavior. For science.
It’s like IHIHM’s change in reverse.
Naw, I’ve always been this way.
When you are in Amerkia you can’t tell the truth because the clones/drones will murder you. Now I just let it fly. It’s called fredom you slaves! 
True of course, but you are not allowed to talk about the truth in the USA. You aren’t supposed to address root cause and use critical thinking skills, you are supposed to repeat the same thinking which led to current state and reject all thinking that would change it (or understand it).
Human nature is tribal. The US experiment has been to mix together different tribes, with forced “we are all the same dammit” propaganda, and see how that works. Now we know how that works, as if we didn’t already – homo sapien tribes do not mix well. Deep down people never really believe they are the same, which is partly because that is true, they are not the same.

Purealpha -
Rule #1: don’t feed the troll, it is already full of crap. FC needs attention and you are giving it to him/her/it.
Anyway, the tribal mixing has gone on all over the world happily for millenia, it’s not like US invented it. Many big empires were by necessity multi-racial. Ancient Egypt, Greece (where Ethiopians fought for Troy, Scorates was half-black, Avicenna was from India), Roman Empire, Moors (blacks defeating and ruling over whites), Persian empire, Ottoman empire, Obviously Mongols, India, SE Asia, …
I don’t know much about China - maybe Han are a distint racially identity. And Vikings were white. So it is not a required condition, but the point is, it has happened over and over in history.
I am deliberately not addressing any of FC’s diatribe; but I just wanted to address the point you made.
Naw, it’s gone on unhappily all over the world for thousands of years. The US is just the most extreme example, and thus interesting to observe.
Naw naw, the unhappiness makes news because it is unusual and newsworthy. Not the rule. Man bites dog.
Naw naw naw, homo tribes are clearly programmed not to mix, it’s the rule from nature. If we could go back in time sapiens vs neanderthals might have been the first great confilict to watch. It probably evolved as a way to preserve diversity, homogeneity isn’t a great thing for survival.
Bottom line, the racial conflicts will continue. It’s programmed, and the programming cannot be rewritten, only temporarily surpressed.

Naw naw naw naw, I bet you dollars to donuts that homo sapiens (Cro-Magnons) intermixed with Neanderthals at some point. Conflict is not the only way people from different gene pools interact. it is not even the major way, just the most newsworthy. Histories have been written about conquests and bloody battles because they make good stories. Not so many stories about extensive trade, exchange of knowledge and culture, and migration among world populations since millenia.
BTW you preserve diversity by you know, “physical love” and homogeneity by war against those who look different. Not the other way around. Aren’t you weakening your own prejudicial argument if you think diverse people survive and homogeneous ones die out?
Correct, both interbreeding with the other tribe AND maintaining separation from that other tribe, are good for survival. We have sex with them, we trade with them, but “they” are not “us”.
Just pointing out how things work, arguing on the internet about it isn’t going to change human nature.
At what point in interbreeding do “they” and “we” make no sense?
You don’t even need to interbreed. I see my Indian-Americans friends’ kids, they are American. To them India is just some country like Australia or Zimbabwe. Parents’ attempts to preserve the “old country ways” have mixed results at best.
Tribal identification is fluid (even discounting the Dolazel chick.) And tribes themselves can disintegrate and dissolve. At one point in US, the Irish were discriminated against pretty openly. Now they are mostly “just white.” Yes St Paddy’s day and all that, but that’s symbolic.
Human nature won’t change but your understanding of it will, if you keep an open mind and see what goes on in reality vs what gets reported in the news.
^ This whole “they are over-reporting the conflict throughout history” is just weird.
Throughout history homo sapien tribes have not mixed well. It will not be different going forward, perhaps in 100,000 years there will be no distinct races, but they will just find other differences in order to define “their tribe”. It’s too deep in monkey nature to go away.
