Skin Color and Gender Determine Privilege and Income, Regardless of Educational Level

1. No Weiner?!? I can't stop laughing!!

2. Links to the study?

3. class determines privilege , telling me i opress ivanka trump just makes you sound like an idiot

4. Lots of trolls and people triggered posting here. Agree that the study does neglect to report on the disappearance of the once predominant middle class due to neoliberal economics over the study period.

5. It's frightening how many little turds are pretending to be "professors" in our White European university system. They couldn't create university systems in their native countries, but they've sure been good at ruining White Euro civilization.

6. did you look at white women over 50 (with or without a college degree)?? I don't think so

7. Black / White / Hispanic – What about Asians and Other groups – I say Bullsh*t study!

8. Real News? What a joke! Why don't you call it Incomplete News? Wiener is obviously a sexist and bigoted transphobe, for his "study" reporting does not include data for transwomen and transmen. We do exist, we do work, and we do earn incomes. But your interviewer makes no reference to us, either. I'm unsubscribing from this channel and its fetal incomplete news coverage. It's a friggin pseudo-liberal joke!

9. Read Preferential Policies: An International Perspective or Discrimination and Disparities by Thomas Sowell. You’re welcome.

10. Hmm…in a way I am kind of seeing what Adolph Reed argues that some on the Left are doing which is through anti-racist discourse or the discourse of racial inequality and racism there is a sort of class project in the sense that it does not critique capitalism, but in a way upholds it by saying "If we just bring PoC to equal parity with their peers, then everything will be okay.".

    I am not saying that racism does not matter because there is argument to be had against those who narrowly see and understand class, but that I think there is a lack of nuanced understanding.

11. We got some idw folks in the comments today

12. Every now and then you hear or read something that is just so much utter bollacks it hurts. This is one of those occasions

13. Damn real news, you thought this was a good one to do here? may I suggest smoking less of what you're smoking? just puts a bad taste in everyone's mouths before the holidays is not cool at all.

14. Why no mention of class divisions, that is, producers and owners? Who does the hiring isn't
    mentioned either?

    A "meritocratic" organisation of society is just another that divides it's subjects according to "merit" instead of, as you put it, "race", "sexual orientation", gender, etc. But USA society is a society of producers and appropriators, of labour against capital, of exploited against exploiter. The point is to create a society that functions on the basis of, from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs.

    Intersectionality is just another bourgeois/ruling class perpetuated "social science" trickery designed to confuse the working class and get us at each others throats based on skin color, "privilege", who's got the higher payin' job, etc. A theoretical cul-de-sac to ensnare workers.

    I don't understand how this exchange helps get to the root of the precarious economic situation the proletariat in the USA face. Regardless of identity politics created "categories" the working class in the USA generally is doing very badly economically. And you ignore that in a capitalist economy wage workers are exploited in the social production process wherein they are forced to produce a surplus of value over and above their wage that represents capitalist profits and wealth. But it don't matter the color of the skin, etc, the worker is required to produce surplus product and value or their "out on their ass", their fired, period.

    "political action to address these discriminations"

    And what will be the aim of this "political action"?
    To spread out the shitty jobs, and the shitty hours, and the shitty pay, and shitty living conditions, and the shitty education, and the shitty healthcare, and the shitty transportation, and the shitty overall life opportunities more equally based upon "race", gender, "sexual orientation", … you want to spread out the aggregate misery more equally?

    This is no solution to anyone except for the ruling class because it doesn't address the property question. It doesn't think that the working class themselves can organise society ourselves. It doesn't challenge the current relations of production and exchange. It's not revolutionary.

    0:08…"exposes the depth of discrimination"…

    0:42…"If we lived in a society that was actually meritocratic"…

    1:56…Intersectionality is this idea that sexism, racism, these forms of oppression really compound each other … how gender, race, ethnicity … interact with each other

    3:27…"The title of this report "By the Contents of Their Character" was inspired by Martin Lunter King's famous "I Have a Dream" speech. But the data shows that King's dream of an equal society is still far from being realised."

    3:38…"This again to us suggests a very urgent need for political action to address these discriminations in society."

15. Oprah is a white guy?

16. Okay, I know having studies and scientific data to back up claims is important, but

    In other news; water is wet.

17. Do we or should we believe this to a certain limit !

18. So are we stooping to a discussion of identity politics from an SJW? Come on guys, you're better than this.

19. I don't see what the big deal is..if ya' sayin' white women haven't benefited most from "affirmative action"..THEY HAVE BENEFITED MOST FROM "AFFIRMATIVE ACTION"! They're ALSO the largest "welfare recipient's".

20. Bogus advocacy research. This scholar presumes the discrimination that he claims to discover in his data. That is called begging the question. Considering the grotesque influence of racial preferences in elite college admissions, it sounds like the market is correcting for the rampant over-credentialing of certain minorities. Markets are good at seeing through distortions and assigning a realistic value to credentials.

21. Pure PC propaganda!

22. Two thousands years ago it was the other way around lets see people for character not color..peace

23. Equivocation of correlation and causation?

24. Read the book “The Color of Law” by Richard Rothstein. It is a brilliant eye opener on American segregation and oppression

25. Thank you

26. We have ADDRESSED this for decades. IT'S TIME FOR REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH FOR EVERY DIRECT DECENDANT OF AMERICAN SLAVERY. THIS COUNTRY WILL CONTINUE TO SHAME ITSELF AND SUFFER UNTIL IT BALANCES THE SCALES OF JUSTICE AND OPPRESSION INFLICTED UPON ITS NATIVE AND ENSLAVED DESCENDANTS.

27. You show snippets of graphs, and before they can be looked at, they are taken away, and there is zero effort to explain what they mean. They're just eye-candy.
    Come on, guys. You can do better.

28. So what is this "white man" – Noe Wiener – saying? That "white men" constitute the privileged 1st and 2nd Estate /caste of Church, Nobility and Monarchy, whereas women and "people of colour" constitute the propertyless corvee, serf and poor peasant classes // &/or that "white men" constitute the Capitalist and landed classes whereas women and people of colour are the proletariat? What the hell has "college education" to do with relations of production determined mode of appropriation: wages of labour power sold to capitalists, profits resulting from capitalist commodity production wherein the labour process is a valorising process of exploitation of wage labour by capital and interests baring finance capital or/and rent appropriated by landed property? On what criteria does Noe Wiener, a white man, promoting "identity politics" and being paid for it, qualify himself the interpreter of Martin Luther King's speech?

29. A few things: 1) It’s not by “skin color”; it’s by race & It’s not “People of Color”; it’s Black. None of these conclusions hold true for any other ethnicity so why use the corny buzzwords? 2) What good is a study showing incomes by race & gender that starts from 1970 when all other studies show men’s wages have been stagnant since 1980 and women of all ethnicities have gained more bachelor degrees than their male counterparts every year since 1980? Studies done recently disputes a lot of this stuff and is more credible because they use relevant data. But this video was just useless! Y’all need to get y’all act together cuz y’all been slacking lately…😒

30. more garbage research coming out of the highly left wing controlled "institutions"

31. This is annoyingly ignoring the fact that certain races and genders CHOOSE their own jobs and have similar preferences, respectively.
