Biden Just Announced That He is Out

That’s all going to depend on how it gets sliced up. There can be hundreds of distinct ethnic groups defined or analysis can be based on just a few categories (as the US Census does with white, black/AA, Asian, Native American, Hawaiian/Pacific, mixed). If you lump Catholics, Jewish, Hispanic, all the other Christians, atheists, etc into a single group then the US isn’t very diverse. Sub Saharan Africa can be represented as 100s of ethnic groups.
However it's sliced we're not in a league of our own as far as diversity goes.
 
with 215 being the most diverse, not the least.

and their methodology is pretty weak "In the Fearon list, ethnic fractionalization is approximated by a measure of similarity between languages, varying from 1 = the population speaks two or more unrelated languages to 0 = the entire population speaks the same language."

that list has Belgium, and Canada as more diverse than us. I think its a pretty crappy list.
The point being we're around the middle of the measurement, not incredibly diverse and not incredibly homogeneous.
How are we more diverse than Belgium and Canada?

70s and 80s. No, when we were in school, race really wasn't a thing... not really. Nobody really gave a ****. You were taught it was a thing, it wasn't especially at scale. Kids generally didn't give a crap although there would be groups of this or that. Nobody made an issue about it because it just wasn't an issue.

If anything everyone basically was on equal footing, everyone got teased, everyone got picked on, everyone had the same opportunities on a public level, etc.

Everyone was basically told to try and ignore race, which is basically what happened.... but than they started the whole.... we need talk about race BS in the 90s and it has gotten worse since that time.
That's the same time as me, roughly. Race may well not have mattered to your gang, which is good. It didn't matter to most of mine either but racism was all around us. Housing was segregated and roads across the tracks weren't paved, there were a lot of racist comments and behavior at school, and there was open discrimination in the community. When I got to UT I saw from other students that racism was alive and well in varying degrees all over the country.
While race may not have mattered to us as youth then, it very much mattered nationally.
 
50 million immigrants and every census defined ethnicity elected to the highest levels of government suggest otherwise. Even more diverse groups are represented leading the biggest companies.
Origin and population share of immigrants are factors too as are the ethnicities of native born population. Elected officials and business leaders aren't measures of diversity but of inclusion. We're pretty diverse but a lot of other countries are too.
 
First note: The White House lied straight up about the speech being delivered "live"; it was clearly not. How do we know this with absolute certainty? Biden had a watch on and it is visible in some of the shot -- and was not at the time of the speech. You'd think the production crew would have enough marbles rolling around to catch this but... nope. It thus was quite-clearly taped and therefore the obvious question is "how many

anybody heard this?

You can’t have that type of inclusion without diversity. Participation of leadership at the highest levels by various groups of people certainly is an indicator of how diverse a country is. The politicians are elected by the people. The diversity of business leadership wouldn’t exist without educational opportunities for all of the different types of people.

Yes to have different ethnicities in those positions there has to be diversity. But the same level of diversity could exist with one or very few ethnicities reaching high levels.

I would expect nothing less.. poor Joe, I actually feel bad for him

He's been bending this country over for 50+ years.
I know it is a terribly unChristian thing to say, but I have no pity for him whatsoever. Maybe God will forgive him; only Biden and God know the outcome of that. I know I should, but at this point I just don't care about him at all. I certainly think he will have a lot of explaining to do once he meets Him.
 


NEW: Investigative journalist Seymour Hersh suggests Barack Obama threatened Biden with the 25th Amendment, saying he had "Kamala's approval" to force him out of the 2024 race.

Hersh says Obama was "deeply involved" with the alleged coup and called Biden after his "incident" in Las Vegas.

"I went over [reports] this week with a senior official in Washington who helped me fashion an account of a White House in complete disarray," Hersh said.

"Obama called Biden after breakfast [on July 20] and said, 'Here’s the deal. We have Kamala’s approval to invoke the 25th Amendment,'" a senior Washington official told Hersh.

Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Hakeem Jeffries were reportedly directly involved.

Obama's plan was to not immediately endorse Kamala but it was clear that she would "get the nod" and it was determined that her being a prosecutor would help in debates.

"[Obama] had an agenda and he wanted to seek it through to the end, and he wanted to have control over who would be elected."

This is called a coup.

To be fair, that’s your experience but not necessarily the same experience others had. It wasn’t a huge issue where I grew up either and I was certainly in diverse locations prior to high school but, again, that doesn’t mean it was the same for all. I’ve certainly heard racist statements said by multiple people in East TN, not all white either. I’d say had I grown up in East TN my experience might’ve been different.

Growing up in middle TN in the 80s it wasn’t either… the only time people ever said anything was when people started dating interracially because it was so rare .. now it is so commonplace that nobody even notices.. but that used to be a trigger, not gonna lie
