While we have the linkfest, check this out – it’s few days old but I just got up the nerve/stomach to actually watch the video. For clarity, I am not racist (far from it, strict non-collectivist of any kind) – but can you imagine the firestorm if somehow they were talking about the correct level of *whiteness* in a President, and attributing his positive qualities to the fact that he was white?

Philosophical note: what is going on here is really terrible, ascribing any qualities of an individual to which group they belong to involuntarily (i.e, of course it’s logical to judge someone if they choose to belong to, say, a white supremacist organization) is a horrible fallacy, and the fact that it’s done so openly, and evidently widely accepted, when it’s apparently PC to do so is shocking, and a scary indictment of just how far our society implicitly accepts collectivist ideals.
