Hmm, I wonder what would cause that kind of inequality in the hiring pool.

If only there were some kind of group whose job was correcting hystereses like these by some kind of compensatory weighting...

/u/pwnslinger, I need you right now to go study something you're not interested in. Go!

God that sub is trash

Well,trash is only thing reddit produces

I mean yeah just look at this sub

Some may call this junk.

Me, I call them treasures.

it's so upsetting that he's also Nick Valentine

ikr, like half of the posts became "This is why Trump is literally Hitler".

Well he is white so.....

His trying his best to be orange to escape the mayocide.

Did you know that 99% of trash collectors are men?

Probably more to do with how systemic discrimination affects different minorities differently, given different histories, stereotypes and perceptions. Take several 5 year olds doing identical 5 year old stuff, studies show if they're black they'll get punished disproportionately harshly, and that's at 5 years old. Extrapolate to the rest of society and it's pretty easy to see how negative reinforcement can shape a persons path - not every person, but we're talking about trends here. Just expecting someone to be smart leads to a rise in test scores. They did a study with asian women, when reminded they were asian the group did better on math tests, when reminded they were women they did worse. The upside to being asian - viewed as non criminal, highly intelligent, hard working, the downside(which also aids in hiring and integrating) sexless docile doormats - who wouldnt want to hire a highly intelligent sexless docile doormat.

that's all real shit though

Feels are always real.

feelings do exist for those of us not on the spectrum

but in this case, it's data gleaned from scientific studies

So if I go into a classroom full of downies and tell them that they're all prodigies with latent super IQs, will their test scores also go up?

They'd probably more comfortable with you there

I like that /u/Fate-0 thinks that he will patronise them.

EVERYBODY IS THE SAME

IQ DON'T REAL

probably yeah and if you tell them they're drooling retards the test scores would go down

Oh really, the scientific studies?

The studies he didn't provide any proof weren't invented up in his mind?

Those are the studies you are believing?

making me look like a stupid science bitch again

http://www.apa.org/research/action/stereotype.aspx

Why google shit when you can just angrily hurl your ignorance out into the world.

Why don't you try googling

Take several 5 year olds doing identical 5 year old stuff, studies show if they're black they'll get punished

Before you start srs posting at me angrily

And everyone knows the only legitimate science is the science done using five year olds.

I'm still counting making you read some actual science as a win for society.

Still not seeing a link to the study about 5 year olds like I was asking about before you sperged out posting shit everyone with any sort of Psy or Soci background already knows.

shit we figured out 50years ago with why IQ test scores were low for certain people isn't that brave of you to post it just makes you look dumb.

Either post what I was asking for or shut up.

Ah, well now that you agree with half the studies being discussed we are half way there.

Maybe if you stopped projecting made up bullshit onto me you'd relize that you've invented

Why google shit when you can just angrily hurl your ignorance out into the world.

And everyone knows the only legitimate science is the science done using five year olds.

Your first link isn't it because guess what Preschoolers aren't 5 year old.

Same with your second Link

You want to show me which one of the many studies linked in your Vox article is the one about 5 year olds?

Maybe if you stopped projecting made up bullshit onto me you'd relize that you've invented

That's not even a real sentence.

Your first link isn't it because guess what Preschoolers aren't 5 year old. How do you not know how old preschoolers are?

Lol. They are literally 4-5 years old.

Lol. They are literally 4-5 years old.

Jesus fuck how dumb are you.

You have to be 5 to be a children in Kindergarten in America.

Why are you trying to talk about this if you aren't even aware of how old a preschooler is.

And you still haven't linked me the one thing you said you'd provide.

Put up or shut up and admit you sperged out over nothing.

You have to be 5 when school starts you tard. From your general illiteracy I'm guessing you were probably homeschooled in one of our more rural states, but that means that kids can be 5 years old for up to 11 months before going to kindergarten.

You've got nothing and honestly I'm tired of watching you try to keep this going.

You still haven't linked the one thing you said you'd provide and was mad at me for not googling.

Maybe you should reflect on how serious you are taking this and kys?

but that means that kids can be 5 years old for up to 11 months before going to kindergarten.

Why do you know so little about the American School system?

You've been posting for like 3 hours about shit only you are talking about and youre the one tired of acting retarded amazing.

Hahaha, you really do wear your ignorance and anti-social problems as badges of honor.

And I haven't been talking by myself, I can always count on you to struggle along besides me.

k guy who thought 5 year olds took college and SAT tests youre obv top tier smartypants.

Like all you did was post shit I already knew for 3 hours while refusing to provide the one thing relevant to what I was talking about, but glad you feel smug?

Oh that was a weak one, it's all non sequiturs. You're getting tired, I can tell. Get some sleep and we can pick this up later.

Dude, that's not even how non sequitur is used, stop acting like such a intellect.

If you're going to use Latin at least have the decency to be able to use it correctly.

Srsly you've failed to provide the one thing you said was easily googled and you don't even know how Kindergarten works, do some research before projecting retardation onto other people, why are you posting if you clearly never have fun doing it?

Do you ever notice that you just claim things without providing any actual arguments? Like that I don't know how to use the term non sequitur (my guess is you googled it and only looked at the first result). It's really your go to move. That and trying to change the argument to one you could actually win (like whether five year olds take the SAT).

And picking on the arrogantly ignorant is fun for me, sorry if you didn't enjoy it :(

Thanks for the last word.

Dude you just aren't fun to post with because of how seriously you post, it's obvious you aren't having fun because you never just go with the conversation, it's all about how much smarter you are and how everyone else isn't as smart as you as you add s to a Latin phrase because that's how you think they work.

(like whether five year olds take the SAT)

You've been on a 4 hour posting spree and still don't understand that I actually know what i'm talking about because you want to feel superior to someone you've imagined a whole personality and life behind.

I was never asking for common knowledge studies, I wanted the specific ones about 5 year olds

Take several 5 year olds doing identical 5 year old stuff, studies show if they're black they'll get punished disproportionately harshly

I wanted a study to see how they tested "Identical 5 year old stuff"

And you gave me shit about College students, SAT Scores, Preschoolers and a Vox link.

And picking on the arrogantly ignorant is fun for me, sorry if you didn't enjoy it :(

See youre confusing arrogant and ignorant with disagreeing with you about basic facts everybody knows.

You smug posted because you thought I didn't know basic shit everyone learns in Psy 101 in HS, like that's the level of knowledge that gets you off.

I can't believe Foehammer guy doesn't know you're trolling.

AMMMR is less autistic then you because he knows not to fucking serious post all the time.

( This post is a joke because I'm posting a huge post about how dumb it is to post seriously and your duty is to reply with K or U mad but it's mainly to let you know I don't have a grudge or a problem with people who disagree with me on Reddit like you seem to have)

See how you're saying that everyone knows this stuff and you are clearly joking while also still saying that those studies didn't count because the OP said things about 5 year olds and well technically some preschoolers are 4? That's how I know you do care and are actually this ridiculous.

See how you're saying that everyone knows this stuff

famillama do you want me to explain the entire history of Tests and IQ tests and why races scored diff and how we figured it out and things that impact people taking tests?

Because at this point you should just take some classes.

It's stuff everyone knows, It's why I didn't want those links in the first place, studies that show Black Children are punsihed harder with a AA Teacher, disabled get suspended more because Teachers can't deal with them properly are all old stuff everyone who knows anything about this already knows.

Like you are super upset and reeeing about studies people already know while failing to provide the one thing you sperged out and said was easily googlable and now you think i'm the one upset, y'all need to stop projecting about shit only you care about.

Wait, you lost me, so why were you posting that some preschoolers are only 4 and don't take the SAT? You gotta focus that rage more my man.

When I was asking for studies I was asking for the studies about 5year olds, not all the other stuff you posted that people who know anything about studies on schools already know.

That's why I didn't care about your studies about College students and SAT scores.

You've been posting stuff I already knew ( And anybody who knows anything about this topic would already know) instead of what I was interested in.

It's pretty clear at this point that the studies he was talking about were your preschooler ones about Black Teachers and Eye focus on misbehaving students just you can't say the study result is because of what he said it was ( Is it racism that Teachers give more attention to students who act up, Teachers are allowed to only do so much with students who act up, they can have fits and leave the classroom and Teachers can't do anything about it; is it more likely for AA students to act up, lots of ground to cover on the topic)

It's why I've been so amused by you posting like such a braintrust over stuff at literally a highschool level of information about Psy and Soci

The moment when you cop out with "I knew all along, I was just pretending to be retarded" is always my favorite.

Dude you've spent 2 days telling me how much I care and how mad I am and how dumb I am for not knowing shit you learn in high school.

No one cares but you, like what are you even posting for?

How am I pretending to not know about studies I referenced before you posted them?

Do you even understand how retarded this is?

What entertainment are you getting from posting pretendingtoberetarded.JPG?

You get both parties in that situation are retarded right?

Like I post shit only pure autists don't figure out is bait and drag it out and congratz ur a winner? Be proud that you tricked me into shit posting?

Try being a better poster if you think I actually care about anything i'm posting about your the retarded one oxoxo

> Easily Googlable

> Took you literally 2 days to find the study

Are you saying you want to talk? Do you see me as some sort of outlet to voice all the things that piss you off about people who you disagree with politically IRL but are too much of a pansey to speak up about?

That'd be way more entertaining then whatever this sad mess is.

Hahaha, now you're just writing fan fic about sticking it to a smug liberal pussy. Do you hear all your Reddit friends clapping in your head as you bravely post on?

U mad

Sry bby, maybe next time.

You would do better if you stuck to one framing at a time.

Except it wasn't at all.

He just made vague reference to these studies with no quotations, citations, other proof that the studies exist at all.

He also gave no indication as to the effect size, which would be nice to have if we're supposed to take these studies the way he's using them, as proof that the racial achievement gap is entirely due to social conditioning.

Of course not, because he's not a sloppy mess like you.

Thank goodness you didn't try to argue that you aren't a sloppy mess, that would have been even more embarrassing for you.

repeating what you just said like it makes it more insulting lol

Apparently scientific studies are now leftist coolaid. Then again right wing people dont believe in evolution or global warming or helping people so why the arse should I care what you think?

Take high school graduates doing high school graduate stuff, studies show if they're asian they'll get punished disproportionately harshly (by admissions boards), and that's at high school age.

a National Study of College Experience led by Espenshade and Radford (2009) showed that a student who self-identifies as Asian will need 140 SAT points higher than whites, 320 SAT points higher than Hispanics, and 450 SAT points higher than African Americans.

That's not punishment, thats discriminatory selection.

It's absurd to on the one hand say that parents emphasizing education is a benefit, then act like constant demonization from preschool and low expectations cant act as a detriment.

then act like constant demonization from preschool and low expectations cant act as a detriment.

I never said it can't act as a detriment. I just don't think it accounts for a significant portion of the achievement gap. There's a tendency of people like you to cherry-pick possible sources for the achievement gap that put the blame on 'society' or the 'white power structure'. Racial bias in the SAT test questions, institutionalized discrimination, slight differences in the number of time white children are called upon versus others. There's no follow up discussion about how much this contributes to the achievement gap. At the same time, you take great pains to discourage discussion of sources that shift blame back on the home environment. Do you know how hard it is for a young single parent (possibly teenage) to advance their education? How about we check out rates of teen pregnancy/teen motherhood to see if maybe this might be a factor or does this line of inquiry make you uncomfortable?

Do you have data or studies that controls for these outside factors though? The assumption that this negative outside pressure can't account for the discrepancy is merely an attempt to absolve people of responsibility for the detrimental parts of the systems that they can affect.

Now I'm not arguing that these are the only factors, only the idea raised in the comment I replied to that you can directly compare one minority to another without contextualizing the history and stereotypes that affect different minorities.

I have taken no pains to discourage discussion on any of the other factors, since no one brought them up. I do note the points you raise aren't unique to non-model minorities, and especially in the case of teen pregnancy can easily be rectified with basic sexual education that time and time again conservatives directly oppose, despite data that indicates that their preferred method isn't working.

What is often done though is what is ascribed to culture is simply poverty, which if you control for only leaves cultural(which is not monolithic) and external factors.

merely an attempt to absolve people of responsibility for the detrimental parts of the systems that they can affect.

Funny, that's how I view your attempts to absolve people of responsibility for their personal choices.

Things an individual control which can affect their educational opportunities:

  • Engaging in unsafe sex during teen years
  • Time spent studying
  • Time spent on academic extracurricular versus athletics
  • Time spent on social media
  • Attendance
  • College major
  • Overall attitude towards school/education

Sexual education and easy access to contraception shows a large drop in unwanted pregnancies. We can start with that.

Now you're talking! All we had to do was dislodge you from identity politics so that we can start discussing actual solutions.

I'm all for more comprehensive sex ed. But in the meantime, any individual from an underserved, underrepresented group can also make some changes in their personal lives to increase their chances at success.

If we're talking about fixing society we work on society, since we know for a fact that people can do everything right and still get passed up or punished unjustly.

An ethnic sounding name can halve your chances of getting a call back with an identical resume. Which is a symptom of systemic discrimination.

How do you teach people to have a different attitude to society when the best of them are still treated like shit?

Same thing happens to asians.

Looks like you're "asians only succeed because whitey favors them" narrative is in the toilet.

Since we're repeating things that have been appearing on the internet ad naseum since the early 2000s, let me give you some fun facts:

  • Did you know that Eskimos have 50 words for snow?
  • Did you know that it takes more muscles to frown than to smile?
  • Did you know that humans only use 10% of their brains?
  • Did you know that women get paid 73 cents for every dollar a man makes?
  • Did you know that most rapes are committed by someone known to the victim?
  • Did you know that most car accidents occur within two miles from a person's home?
  • Did you know that you're more likely to be killed by a vending machine than a falling coconut?

Try doing a little research so I don't have to condescendingly drop oft-repeated factoids to convince myself I'm smarter than you!

Never said "they only succeed because whitey favors them"

I said "there are multiple negative stereotypes that affect non asian minorities so to directly compare the situations is idiotic"

But as you don't seem to be able to read I dunno if you can understand idea.

In breaking out each demographic group from the population of study, there are myriad confounding variables which must be considered, not all of which can be controlled in the analysis you presented. Thus, we cannot conclude that any perceived associations are not spurious, meaning your hypothesis remains unproven.

Q.E.D.

At this point, this is general drift of your arguments. I'm out. It's just boring to go in these circles with people like you.

Using studies not done to absolve the powerful of blame. We don't need to do a study to show that discrimination and its negative consequences have taken a toll on every aspect of african american society, the only question is how exactly do we quantify this toll, and you're being either intentionally ignorant or slyly discriminatory when you suppose that because we haven't quantified exactly that negative effect that in can be dismissed out of hand.

Your studies didn't account for every possible confounding variable. Therefore, YOU. ARE. WRONG.

P.S. I don't know how to make the hand clapping emojis, but if I did, I assure you, I'd have got you gud.

Tell them to change their names, of course.

he actually considers social studies a science

until they can replicate a study and provide accurate data they shouldn't even be called science.

It's Kool Aid. Not whatever shit commie knock off brand you're talking about.

Apparently scientific studies are now leftist coolaid.

Yes, you ignoramus. When only 36% of psychology studies turn out to be reproducible (meaning that the alleged "science" that you fetishize is less reliable than flipping a coin) then only an idiot or a brainwashed sheep would rely on the politicized results.

How do you know this study wasnt part of that 36%?

But even aside from that you have anything at all to contribute to the conversation besides "sheep!"

How do you know this study wasnt part of that 36%?

Because the replication crisis wasn't a single study, it was the result of THOUSANDS of replication studies. For gods sake please use Wikipedia or Google replication crisis before you even touch the "reply" button again; I can feel myself losing brain cells each time I have to explain the obvious to you.

Until you educate yourself on the actual facts that are relevant here, we have nothing to discuss because your brain is so full of the cultist BS that liberals pass off as "science" that there is no room in your head for the sad (but true) reality that we live in.

To be fair some of you idiots were shitting on someone's mention of the stereotype effect by saying it was one study that couldn't be replicated, when in actuality there's been plenty of literature on it.

They did a study with asian women, when reminded they were asian the group did better on math tests, when reminded they were women they did worse.

I believe this is one of those oft-quoted studies which fell victim to the replication crisis in social psychology. Meaning it's probably not true. And thank god because if you could cause women to fail math tests just by pointing out they were women, misogyny would be the only ethical position.

Is their a short overview which papers are affected for people who only are superficially interested into psychology?

I just posted this link above before I saw your question, it's an episode of the Hidden Brain podcast where they discuss the replication crisis.

It's also related to what I call the source chain problem. Where each generation of researchers obfuscates the origin of an incorrect assumption by referring to prior research.

Almost every non-classic study in Psychology hasn't been replicated, so the vast, vast majority. You don't get funding for replicating a study unless it's a classic or an extremely important/controversial study in a topic du jour. On top of this, researchers of all kinds have very sneaky ways of massaging data or a narrative to make the study publishable (especially frequent in brain/behavioral sciences because studies that aren't statistically significant or otherwise or otherwise showing an effect are extremely likely to get published) or confirm the researcher's position, who even knows how many of the assumptions taken for granted in brain and behavioral sciences are actually true.

Same goes for medical and health sciences literature to an even worse degree. Like exponentially worse, though iirc there might be a greater chance of replication, but they suffer from super amplified versions of the same problems and have some unique ones.

As far as replicability goes...

Cognitive/Behavioural Psychology journals are generally better than most.

Clinical and Developmental fields sit in the middle.

Biological journals are slightly below those.

The worst are Social and Personality journals.

As far as the power of each field goes... it depends on the journal but the vast majority of articles published across the board are very low power.

They did two replications simultaneously in different parts of the country. In one the data supported the original study in the other it failed to replicate.

In most fields, being unable to replicate a study means that study loses credibility. In social psychology it means there's a mysterious force making it harder for you to show the world how right you obviously are.

social psychology was created as a stopgap for to allow stupid people that wanted to do science to do 'science' without damaging real science.

Actually, it means you get to choose which interpretation is correct! It's the fun and new "choose-the-results-you-want" method of science.

FUCKING PATRIARCHY

the downside(which also aids in hiring and integrating) sexless docile doormats - who wouldnt want to hire a highly intelligent sexless docile doormat.

/u/AMMovieReviewer would you please explain to /u/Foehammer87 why Asian men aren't sexless docile doormats, i'd explain it myself how dumb and racist it is to say something like this but I feel as an Asian Man you'd do a better job.

Asians aren't viewed as sexless docile doormats.

Chinese are famous for how much they will try to jew you on any sort of negotiation or deal.

Asian men aren't sexless docile doormats

They're treated and depicted as such. At least that's according to facts and reality.

Chinese are famous for how much they will try to jew you on any sort of negotiation or deal.

Well, at least that's the message scum like you peddle. Don't hit your hapa son too hard.

They're treated and depicted as such

That's not in hiring practices and socially tho, the reasons AM are depicted like that is the opposite of reality.

I pinged you because you should be able to set the record correct better then myself.

If I'm a dumb redneck and I know that Asians are good workers who are smart why wouldn't I hire them over some wetback?

It's the same reason Mexicans get hired over Blacks.

Everybody knows stereotypes aren't true and Asians sexuality isn't something that would impact hiring someone.

If I'm a dumb redneck and I know that Asians are good workers who are smart why wouldn't I hire them over some wetback?

Wow. Read the studies.

Everybody knows stereotypes aren't true and Asians sexuality isn't something that would impact hiring someone.

Read the studies.

And seriously, stop pinging me. Get some friends IRL.

Hey bud. Just wanted to let you know that I fucked some viet whores in Saigon so asians can be entrepreneurial too!

Paying for sex isn't something you should brag about.

At least have a college fund ready your half-Viet son when he comes back.

If he ain't already found me, he ain't gonna. This was during the war and a lot of viet women were budding entrepreneurs. Truly, the American dream

This was during the war

Oh, so you're one of those. Didn't even know they had internet at the retirement center.

Until there's a white man leading Samsung why should there be an asian man leading Microsoft?

Don't know how what you're saying is relevant. idgaf about microsoft or apple. Actually read the articles if you know how to.

Move along, troll.

Ok. Read it. Have fun. Go nuts.

Alright, so you won't actually defend your sources.

Sounds like asians are represented just fine to me.

you won't actually defend your sources

Why would I defend a troll.

Accidental honesty?

Not Samsung, but Sony certainly did have a white CEO.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Stringer

So yes Microsoft SHOULD have an Asian CEO.

Which they actually do so I guess it all works out.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satya_Nadella

We just need to hurry it up and replace all the white CEOs with Asians.

Mayocide Nao!

But Steve Jobs is dead.

gaslighting

I don't think this word means what you think it means. I suggest that you do some research.

I noticed that the most recent movie listed in the list was "Ghost in the Shell", coloured red for being notably racist against Asian men. Despite you claiming that "Every entry fails to pass the Asian-male-Bechdel Test", the movie has not been released yet and therefore you cannot make any claims as to the content of the movie. Your only complaint is, then, that Asian men are murdered in the movie, a complaint which you have used for several others on the list. This is, of course, a very shallow complaint, especially considering, as pointed out, Ghost in the Shell is a Japanese IP and therefore it is expected there would be many Asian men. This arbitrary cherry-picking is counter to your claim that all of these films are "specifically and actively" racist, especially considering you believe the cherry-picked example listed is notable enough to warrant the special red colour scheme.

notably racist against Asian men

It is a notable film. Not notably racist. That entry is tame compared to many others.

"Every entry fails to pass the Asian-male-Bechdel Test", the movie has not been released yet and therefore you cannot make any claims as to the content of the movie.

LOL

If you really have a problem with that one, well, go nuts on the other 348. Seems like you just read the first line and went 'well, fuck this guy.' Seriously, read or watch all of them.

Your only complaint is, then, that Asian men are murdered in the movie

Yeah along with hundreds of others. And they are only cast to be murdered/shat on. The list is supposed to be understood as a whole. Not skimmed in 5 minutes. It is supposed to prove a general point that spans hundreds of films.

Ghost in the Shell is a Japanese IP and therefore it is expected there would be many Asian men

LOL

This arbitrary cherry-picking

LOL

"specifically and actively" racist

Some are. Some are not. They all fail the AMB Test.

I see you have no intention to defend your list. A little advice for you, quality always trumps quantity.

I see you have no intention to defend your list.

If you read the list, it defends itself. I have no use in defending it to someone who won't actually read it.

quality always trumps quantity

You missed the entire point. It's quality + quantity.

And I have a message for you: Facts always triumphs over lies, eventually.

If you read the list, it defends itself.

Last I checked, it was a list of things without any counterpoints.

You missed the entire point. It's quality + quantity.

You don't seem to know how addition works. Quality + quantity implies that not only are there a bunch of examples, but they are all good examples. Your list has some quality and some quantity, but they aren't combined.

And I have a message for you: Facts always triumphs over lies, eventually.

This is just flat out false. How else would fundies exist?

Last I checked, it was a list of things without any counterpoints.

Doesn't need any. Not sure if you're trolling. If you are, you might be one of the most advanced I've come up against. But something tells me you're not...

Your list has some quality and some quantity, but they aren't combined

lol. It has quality, as well as quantity. It's a combined effect. It's for scum that say, "Oh, it's like 5 movies, stfu you oversensitive cuck." No, it's actually (as of typing this, not 348, but) 349. If it's not in-your-face, then there's no impact.

This is just flat out false

The truth always comes out on top. Whether it takes 5 minutes, 70 years, or a 1000. That's why I'm making this list.

Doesn't need any.

You claimed the list "defends itself". For things to be defended, they need to have things they are defending against. Hence, points and counterpoints. So, say, if I were to claim that one of your points was faulty, then you would have anticipated the claim and made a counterpoint to explain why it isn't faulty.

Not sure if you're trolling. If you are, you might be one of the most advanced I've come up against.

I appreciate the compliment. A word of advice, though. If you suspect something, don't just outwardly state you suspect something. Any attempted troll will double down once they know you're not onto them yet.

It has quality, as well as quantity. It's a combined effect.

That's not how combined effects work. Quantity vs quality isn't about whether or not you have any of either. If you had two entries, you couldn't claim "quantity" because there's multiple things. In the same vein, if 10% of your entries are accurate and undebatable, you can't claim "quality" just because they exist.

The truth always comes out on top.

If you're so concerned with the truth, why not use some of that truth to explain your reasoning. If fundies can exist despite all the years of scientific advancement, how can you say for sure that the truth inherently comes out in any argument?

You claimed the list "defends itself".

Ooohhh you mean like that? Like, semantic bullshit. K.

So, say, if I were to claim that one of your points was faulty, then you would have anticipated the claim and made a counterpoint to explain why it isn't faulty.

Doesn't really need counterpoints. No one who read the entire list would pip a squeak. And if I added counterpoints, the list would be harder to read in that it would be double the length. But again, as I said, counterpoint are unnecessary here. Take it or leave it. It's expected that non-AMs wouldn't care anyway.

I appreciate the compliment. A word of advice, though. If you suspect something, don't just outwardly state you suspect something. Any attempted troll will double down once they know you're not onto them yet.

Stop.

If you had two entries, you couldn't claim "quantity" because there's multiple things

There's 351 as of now.

In the same vein, if 10% of your entries are accurate and undebatable, you can't claim "quality" just because they exist.

lmfao. That's just not the case. Nice try.

If you're so concerned with the truth, why not use some of that truth to explain your reasoning.

Not necessary. Read the list, or don't. Take it in, or fuck off. Simple enough.

If fundies can exist despite all the years of scientific advancement, how can you say for sure that the truth inherently comes out in any argument?

My list is the truth. It's primarily geared towards AM who might care about this stuff. Non-AMs obviously will not, and actually enjoy the fact that making this list is possible. Otherwise, it wouldn't be in any movie.

However, I wouldn't mind if you read the whole list and watched its accompanying videos.

You sure are confident in your list. Oddly confident, for someone who's going to such lengths to...not defend it. I've got a bit of truth to drop on you, people who act the most confident actually have the least evidence behind their claims. And the things that make you the angriest are the things you know are true.

Lmfao. Once again, I don't need to defend something that defends itself.

The most confident people are those that know the truth.

I don't need to defend 2+2=4. But youd probably call me "over-confident" for that as well.

This list is for those who will read it. Not trolls who read the first line and go for the kill.

You don't even know the amount of assumptions you're making. Generally that's a trait of people who are wrong, at least according to facts and science.

I've made no assumptions. You're the one who made assumptions without having read the proof.

I know you're just trolling, so you can stop.

You're wrong as a point of fact. I ask simply the fundamental question of rationality: why do you believe what you believe? It's clear you cannot answer the question, and therefore you have no place lecturing anyone on the truth.

Firstly, you are a troll. It's getting really annoying.

You're derailing a factual argument with epistemological nonsense. I have no need to talk with someone who has not read the proof.

I'm gonna break character for a bit and tell you that yes, I have been trolling you this entire time. However, that doesn't mean that anything I've said so far has been inaccurate. Only entry-level trolls simply pretend to be retarded in the hopes of getting a rise out of people. I consider myself to be more elegant than that, phrasing the truth in such a way as to create maximum self-entertainment.

Now I'm hoping that, despite our previous animosity, you can understand where I'm coming from with the next statement. This, like the other things I've said, is completely true. Unlike other things I've said, though, this is meant to help you understand the situation better. There is something obvious and important you missed about this argument. I could tell you what it was, but it's important for your personal growth and understanding that I don't spoonfeed you the information.

Dude... get some friends IRL...

See, this is exactly what I'm talking about. I count at least four assumptions in that one sentence alone. At least three of which are false.

k

LMFAO. Trolling doesn't work anymore.

Trolling always succeeds, in the end.

Not in this case.

Tough talk from someone who hasn't even read my links.

Stop trolling. Find something better to do.

No.

lol

So now that Ghost in the Shell has been officially released, and we can clearly see that there were clearly important main characters that were Asian men who were clearly not cast to be murdered/shat on, and that the movie does, in fact, appear to pass the Asian-male-Bechedel Test.

Will you remove the example in your blog, and apologise for jumping to false conclusions, or do you admit that you include false/exaggerated examples to inflate numbers?

Oh. You again.

I will keep it in there because it is anti-AM.

The movie fails to pass the AMB Test.

I will not apologize for not jumping to false conclusions.

I don't admit to lies from pigskins.

I did not inflate numbers. I actually deflate numbers. You're welcome to argue otherwise, but obviously, there's no proof supporting your racist claims.

So, what I am getting from this is that, despite claiming to be on the search for the truth, you will nonetheless spread false information, despite claiming to have accurate information that will help your cause.

Again, you are trolling, as per usual, cus you have no proof for any of this.

There is no false information on that database. If there was, you'd be able to point to them, but you can't.

I'll give you 3 more messages before I block you. I'm tired of talking to obvious trolls who present no evidence.

There is false information. You are claiming that Ghost in the Shell fails the Asian-male-Bechedel test because the main character kills ugly, villanous, Asian men and that therefore Hollywood hates Asian men. A simple glance at the IMDB page proves that claim false in all regards. While Asian men do die in the movie, there is nothing that could be extrapolated from it. There are positively-portrayed Asian men, there are murdered villains who are not Asian men, and many of the Asian men who are murdered criminals are actually rather attractive.

You are claiming that Ghost in the Shell fails the Asian-male-Bechedel test because the main character kills ugly, villanous, Asian men and that therefore Hollywood hates Asian men.

Yes.

A simple glance at the IMDB page proves that claim false in all regards.

LOL. Sorry. I don't pay heed to alternative facts.

There are positively-portrayed Asian men

The movie fails the AMB test. Offenses do not just cancel each other out. If I throw shit on you, and give you 15 dollars, those two actions don't cancel each other out.

there are murdered villains who are not Asian men

And?

many of the Asian men who are murdered criminals are actually rather attractive

The movie fails to pass the AMB test. Period.

Again, you only read the first entry. Spreading lies about the first entry on a list of 514 items doesn't do anything. Stop trolling and make some friends IRL.

You now have 2 more messages left. Use them wisely.

The movie fails the AMB test.

It does not fail the Asian-male-Bechedel Test though. Lots of Asian men do all sorts of things in the movie.

Offenses do not just cancel each other out.

Well this is a pretty serious non-sequitor compared to your previous statement. The Bechedel Test isn't an "offense", it's specifically designed to show a lack of attention. Let's not ignore the one leg you have left to stand on.

If I throw shit on you, and give you 15 dollars, those two actions don't cancel each other out.

You're right. Shit is easy to clean off in a matter of minutes, and $15 is more than most people get hourly. The $15 payout is so much more signficant.

It does not fail the Asian-male-Bechedel Test though.

It does. Villainous, grotesque-looking AM with no lines get killed en masse by a white female protagonist. Fails the test.

The Bechedel Test isn't an "offense", it's specifically designed to show a lack of attention.

Lol. You don't even know what non-sequitir means. This is not the Bechdel test. This is the AM Becdel test. Nice try. This whole line of thought is the real non-seq.

You're right. Shit is easy to clean off in a matter of minutes, and $15 is more than most people get hourly. The $15 payout is so much more signficant.

Non-sequitir, nor is it an honest response.

Again, you've continually proved yourself as a simple gaslighter. Pro-tip. Trolling doesn't work on someone who knows you're a troll.

I'm just defending the list for the impressionable lurker passerbys.

You have 1 message left. I know you won't use it well.

Ah, I see. I was operating under the assumption that you were hoping to, at least, maintain a facade of impartiality and accuracy. If you really wanted to make up a term, don't piggyback on another term that has actual meaning.

You know as well as I do that you're getting trolled very easily. If you truly didn't care you wouldn't even bother blocking me, let alone giving me chances to prove myself.

Ah, I see. I was operating under the assumption that you were hoping to, at least, maintain a facade of impartiality and accuracy.

Again, every one of the "arguments" has been debunked for impressionable lurkers.

You know as well as I do that you're getting trolled very easily.

What? lol

If you truly didn't care you wouldn't even bother blocking me

I don't really care about mosquitoes but they annoy me. Blocking you is just using the bug spray.

giving me chances to prove myself

I have. Yet you continually prove to me that you are a troll since your points are so painfully obvious in their malintent, misdirection, and gaslighting.

Get some friends IRL for me, okay?

You're still not helping your case here. You also know that there are no more lurkers around and if there were you wouldn't be helping anyone by slightly fixing their opinion.

Oh, and thanks for your continual support of the database. Much appreciated.

/u/Foehammer87 are Asians sexless, docile doormats, or sexualized, fetishized, and objectified by the evil wypipo gaze?

the women are sexualized - mainly for bein docile, the men are sexless, the docility feeds into both negative stereotypes.

Asian women being docile is something that only someone who's never been in or seen a relationship with an Asian women could say because of untrue it is.

Nevermind how racist it is of you to assume all Asian women are the same.

oh christ you moron. I am specifically talking about the stereotype, not the people. If I failed to make that clear then that's my bad, but I feel like I made a distinction between how people ARE and how people PERCEIVE them.

Nevermind how racist it is of you to assume all Asian women are the same.

Can you not see that he's just concern-trolling? This is how he spends his whole day. Let the poor loser do his thing, but don't fall for his bs.

Stereotypes are Stereotypes because they are true, you are confusing a stereotype with a fetishization.

You're the moron.

Asian Women being docile is something that no one who has actually been in a relationship with one thinks.

That's why it's not a stereotype that exists

a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing

Early researchers believed that stereotypes were inaccurate representations of reality. A series of pioneering studies in the 1930s found no empirical support for widely held racial stereotypes. By the mid-1950s, Gordon Allport wrote that, "It is possible for a stereotype to grow in defiance of all evidence."

Okay so since you had to google it you clearly aren't informed enough to be having this discussion

oh boy.

You don't think that stereotypes can be based on faulty observations/perceptions or unfamiliarity?

How dare you assume the perception of millions of people held by other millions of people. How dare you assume that with a few words you can stereotype millions of people's stereotypes of other millions of people. You people make me sicc.

Good stereotypes that you just pulled out of your ass.

Aren't we talking about american society and negative stereotypes, I'm not saying asian people ARE sexless docile doormats, I'm saying that broad ignorant stereotypes often paint them as such. And if you look at media aside from martial arts movies they rarely let asian dudes be leads especially not romantic leads.

I dunno why you're arguing that the dumb stereotype that I presented as dumb is dumb.

I'm saying that broad ignorant stereotypes often paint them as such.

Yes, all the White Men who have yellow fever think Asian Women are sexless docile doormats.

???? Do you understand why this is retarded yet.

And if you look at media aside from martial arts movies they rarely let asian dudes be leads especially not romantic leads.

/u/AMMovieReviewer This is why I pinged you, this guy thinks Asians are only allowed to be leads in Martial Arts Movies, especially not romantic leads

And even I know about Han from the Fast and Furious series and i'm sure you have more examples of actual cinematography

I can't believe Foehammer guy doesn't know you're trolling.

I actually pinged you because I thought he'd love your Movie List since it covers what he is arguing about.

For the lurkers, here. Go nuts.

thanks, stay woke fellow mongol

-oid, dipshit.

Needs to be posted to /r/hapas.

Chinese are celebrated for how much this contributes to the rest of society and it's data reaped from scientific studies.

Quoted a song. Imagine doing that, how you would view truth and reality to quote a song as evidence on social issues.

To all the people below who've disagreed with me, look in your heart and ask: Is there any argument I could make that would change your mind?

Maybe if you could M. Night Shamaladingdong my life to show that, actually, all those lunch breaks I spent in the computer and science labs, I was actually surrounded by sassy black women and not spotty white dudes.

M. Night Shamalamadingdong

There is no reason to make fun of the perfectly fine Indian name "Shyamalan" dude got passed down from his family when you can make fun of him for wilfully deciding to assume the name "Night".

Night is a badass name tho.

I mean, even if there is a wage gap, it is probably just and good anyway.

This was used as proof of something, tbh I have no idea what, but it was used as some sort of evidence in one of the arguments:

Jesus Christ all those red piller comments getting upvoted

It's always nice to wander into the big unmoderated subs every once and a while and remember why people used to post to SRS

Do you really understand what they face as an woman? Its life on easy mode, they don't have to work a single day of their life if they can find some beta to marry who makes 70k a year. I'm serious. Do you really think its hard to be a woman, when society EXPECTS YOU TO NEVER WORK?

Huh, it's the 1950's again?

is there are institutionalized forces that make it harder for women to make the same choices as men.

JESUS CHRIST JUST STOP
