  1. I know where Scott Adams lives, because I used to teach there (Pleasanton, California). Very nice, very wealthy town, the last stop on the eastern leg of the BART rail system. Pleasanton used to be an almost all-white town, but Asian and Indian tech workers discovered its low crime, high property values, and excellent public school system, so when I taught there, we underwent a demographic shift. Blacks are less than 2% of Pleasanton's population, while Asians and Indians make up 40%, and Hispanics are about 10%. 20 years ago, Pleasanton was 85% white, and now is only 48%, so that's a big change. But the town is still a very nice place to live with a lot of community pride. I was not raised to be racist and (wait for it) I actually have black friends--and I mean close friends, not acquaintances. I'm sixty years old and the first time I was ever called racist in my entire life was three years ago, after decades of working with colleagues and students of all different races and backgrounds. There are people who are trying to gain power by stirring up the old hatreds when most of us thought we'd put them behind us. It's very disturbing and I think Adams is overreacting, but he always was a bit of an oddball. And no, I don't believe Scott Adams is a racist. The incident that caused me to be called racist? I wouldn't let a black woman get ahead of me in the grocery checkout line because I only had a few items and she had an entire cart full. That's not how it works and I explained that to her. She cussed me out in front of everybody, calling me racial slurs (and also surmising I'm a homosexual, because homophobia and racism often go together) and no one spoke up--and that's the problem. We've been taught that being accused of racism makes you automatically guilty, and now the charge of "racism" has been diluted to mean "I didn't get my way".

  2. "I live in a gated lily white community (guarded by private security) with my Hispanic wife, who is the only Hispanic in the neighborhood who isn't a housekeeper or gardener--so clearly, I am tuned into the zeitgeist of racial issues in America."

  3. Jimmy doesn't know any black people. His views on racism come entirely from his woke Hispanic wife.

  4. Oh shut up. "only white people can be racist" Webster's dictionary: racist--having, reflecting, or fostering the belief that race is a fundamental determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race Words--they mean whatever I say they mean! No, they don't. Did I tell you to STFU? It bears repeating.

  7. You can find a dozen Youtube channels in 5 seconds denouncing white people as evil and saying that the solution to all the problems black people have is total segregation from whites. Because nothing could possibly be their fault. #1 group complaining about black men? Black women. #1 group complaining about black women? Black men. Black folks don't even like each other.

  9. Yep and Jimmy and Kurt and Stef can't cope. They all live in lily white hoods, though.

  10.  @turntableable  By his parents' choice. Jimmy's and Stef's choice now is to live in a gated community with private security, where 98% of residents are white.
