Only Sometimes Does the CRT Crowd Insist on Having Statistical Evidence . . .

Andrew Sullivan posted this today:

After scanning the comments I posted this comment:

Interesting that so many in the CRT apologists in the comments are calling this man an outlier. NOW they want statistics. They want real statistics only when it is convenient to their ideology.

It will never be the case that censorship will improve the quality of the conversations on these issues. Click on these images and dig in:
