You yourself have proven me right: 50% of crimes are committed by black people, because of that, including the other 50% who don't commit crimes as criminals isn't very accurate... justifying it by probability is even worse... on the other hand, as ANCAP, I respect that you don't want to live with people of color, it's your life choice

50% of Blacks don't commit crimes. Approximately 23% of Blacks will be convicted of a felony in their lifetime (33% if only Black men are looked at). Most criminals commit more than one crime and at the extreme right tail are a small percentage (1-2%) of the population that commit almost all of the total crime.

Disparities between race should still inform decision making. Black females are more likely to commit homicide over their lifetime than either White or Asian males, despite the usual trend towards men being the more homicidal sex within race. Blacks & Hispanics are also more likely to attack other groups than their own.

You keep talking about probabilities... seriously they label someone something by probabilities and not by their individual actions ???

If you want to justify it out of prejudice or because of your own moral issue… it is your decision and it is respected

That thinking is how strong nations fail.

They will slowly deteriorate and die.

How many times does it have to happen before we learn

Things are getting out of control for the state as they try to be more intrusive… it is multifactorial, added to the clear inefficiency of the state as a regulatory means

This thinking seems similar to suggesting that liking seatbelts because they make you feel more snug is a better reason to use them than their statistical likelihood of reducing your risk of death in a car crash.

It's a fallacy of false analogy to compare belts and humans ignoring that the latter are biopsychosocial beings... but there will be those who will buy that answer and it will be respected

I was merely producing a hypothetical comparison of a human opinion. The entities weren't particularly important. Essentially you believe it is ok for me to be prejudiced as long as it's irrational. I guess then you get to look down on me.

It is VERY important the entities, analyze it later in other days with more calm… I never said what you say

I always said that against these circumstances I can do nothing more… I cannot force you to believe the same as me… that I give up does not mean that I support it

Your first post ended with "change my mind" implying you were inviting discussion.

When I provided evidence that other population groups are engaging in elevated interracial violence you suggested that using probability wasn't individualistic enough but if I am simply prejudiced then that is to be respected.

The entities weren't important to my argument.

Amazing… but if it makes you feel better go ahead… just enjoy Nostr and its bridges 🫡

It's not what you copied, it's what you understood... but let everyone support what they believe 🤦‍♂️
