A newspaper reported the principal as stating:

“While there was some diversity among the 10 winners, no English learners were elected, even though they make up about a third of enrollment,” the Chronicle reported. “African American and Latino students were underrepresented, while white, Asian and mixed-race students, who are in the minority at the school, took the top four spots.”

S.F. middle school delays election results because winners not diverse enough

The white, female principal said she considered adding positions to the council to better reflect the student body.

This is the end goal -- diversity over democracy. It is just played out in the popularity contest that is a middle school election.

But these elections are the very definition of diversity - the elected candidates were from minority groups!

They are not even trying to hide that "diversity" just means "anti-white" (and tangentially "anti-asian" as well).

Evidence of why american women shouldn't be placed in positions of authority.

So why are asians lumped in with whites now? Is it because they like whites over other ethnicities or just that neither of the racial groups can compete with them?

[RawGod]

So I guess the principal will be stepping down in favor of a black person?

It's about making everyone "feel good about themselves" to the point where actual individual accomplishment doesn't matter.

Race here is just a red herring - a distraction.

People have some kind of weird mental illness when it comes to percentages. Everyone should get some statistics 101 hammered into their head already in high school. Because having EVERY board, council, committee, commission, delegation and whatever other group of people have at least 1 of each group of people is not true representation in any kind of sense of the word. Maybe have a faggot, a jew, a muslim, an eskimo and a REAL African just show up on different days for the 1 seat that they'll get percentually?

This principal is a true progressive she demon if parents in San Francisco are complaining about too much diversity:

"Parents turned to local media to claim that political correctness had trumped common sense — not to mention democracy."

You know we are living "The Emperor's New Clothes" when a fucking middle schooler makes more sense than any of the adults in the article:


“The whole school voted for those people, so it is not like people rigged the game,” seventh-grader Sebastian Kaplan told KRON 4, who had run for class representative yet had no clue a week later if he won. “But in a way, now it is kinda being rigged.”

Wow, that principal is so pious, I mean tolerant.

[Days of Broken Arrows]

Why is "diversity" limited to race and gender? What about height? What about weight? What about people in wheelchairs?

Studies show that in presidential races the taller candidate usually wins. And we all know how fat and disabled candidates like Chris Christie and Bob Dole are treated by the media.

Therefore, I hereby accuse Everett Middle School principal Lena Van Haren of bigotry since her "diversity" does not take into account height, weight, and disability. By omission, she has SHAMED a portion of her students.

How do you think they feel?

Moral: If you wanna play the diversity game, you'd better play it 100 percent for everyone at all times, or else you'll get shot with your own gun.

If one of you kids from her class is reading this, BRING THIS UP TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. (But don't blame us when your grades suddenly plummet.)

I went to college in the US and when the class stats were broken out they were not classed as a "minority". I think they did it because the class was approx. 50% Chinese.

[Disco_Volante]

they REAAAALLLLY badly want white people gone and replaced. There's no issue too small they won't push to reduce whites.

You need to understand the mind of the white limousine liberal who lives in SF, Seattle, or NY to really "get" them. They love patronizing minority causes but only if it's the oppression olympics gold standard class of minority. This means the word minority is only intended for blacks and sometimes latinos. Economic class isn't even taken into consideration of course.

These limousine liberal types love pumping up #blacklivesmatter and parroting other minority anger causes for brownie points.

If you're not from the traditional "oppressed" minority class then they will have nothing but contempt. That's when it's revealed that they are in fact the real racist hypocrites.

I would bet that this principal and her buddies try to avoid minorities, aren't married to any, and her social circle does not include any minorities on anything other than on superficial terms.

The "diversity" they always talk about is some kind of marxist egalitarianism where equal parts of every race is represented and peformance of all groups is only as high as the next group. This means everything is leveled off artificially and the bar is lowered to accommodate everyone involved. This system rewards mediocrity and in fact seems to increase hypergamy since gender has its own rules.

From another article:

Quote:

[Principal] Van Haren said her vision for students for them to not only be academically successful, but to be agents of change.

This means Marxist Subversives.

Remember how I keep saying how the Universities and Schools are now only focused on pumping out brainwashed kids who don't believe in Objective Truth, and any academic concerns are secondary?

Some interesting reading:

Community-Orientated (Communist) Policing

Quote:

At the risk of oversimplifying how the process of [Marxist] group dynamics works, it could be summarized as a method of belief and behavior modification, using dialectic-reasoning skills (remember, all truth is relative), in a group setting. It utilizes the inherent fear an individual person has of being alienated from the group. By use of a change agent, or “facilitator,” individuals are herded toward “consensus” by compromising their position for the sake of “social harmony.” According to Lewin, “A successful change includes, therefore, three aspects: UNFREEZING the present level, MOVING to the new level, and FREEZING group life on the new level.”

This is precisely the technique with which the communists brainwashed American POWs, the only difference being they could accelerate the “unfreezing” phase with physical torture.

In group dynamics the pain is not physical, it’s emotional. Do not underestimate the force of emotional pain. POWs frequently described their long periods in isolation as worse than some of the most brutal physical torture Isolation from the group is a powerful behavior modification weapon.

Transformational Marxists such as Kurt Lewin refined their weapon for the new battlefield: Using group dynamics to invade the culture to affect the paradigm shift. The weapon looks like this:

1. A Diverse Group (“Diversity” needed for conflict)
2. Dialoging to Consensus (Dialectic process)
3. Over a Social Issue (Problem/Crisis/Issues)
4. In a Facilitated Meeting (Controlled environment using facilitator/change agent)
5. To a Predetermined Outcome (Paradigm shift)

[Quintus Curtius]

Pretty shocking.

"Let's shape reality to fit our ideology" rather than the other way around.

In other words, let's have fake elections over and over until we get the result that we need to get. And woe be to him who dares question the underlying assumption that "diversity" is per se good.

[262]

While the principal did eventually say she wasn't going to nullify the results - under parental pressure of course - it would've been funny if this had happened instead:

1) Principal nullifies the results based on race, and calls for an election rerun.
2) Candidates remember or look up recent news on "trans-racialism."
3) Candidates declare themselves "trans-racial."
4) Election is rerun. Results are the same. Principal can't nullify the results again based on race though, since all candidates are "trans-racial." Anyone with a brain is now laughing at the absurdity of it all.

[Hades]

It's funny because the news report said that the school is 80% "students of color".

That means that if (for whatever reason) they're lumping Asians in with whites, indeed, minorities were elected to student congress.

20% white student body and the representatives were still majority white?

Suddenly I am not as worried about becoming a minority in this country anymore.

Towards the end of the article she says "majority white" so I am taking her word for it.

But I think people are misunderstanding something. If the school was majority white she'd have stopped the election for more minority representation. Now that the school is minority white it should "reflect the demographics of the student body".

It's also painfully obvious that very few ethnic 'minorities' stood in this election.

The principal should have seen this coming when they saw the low quantity/quality of ethnic candidates. If this bothered her, then persuade more black/hispanic kids about why they ought to run.
