Steve Sailer weighs in on the New Haven firefighter case. He is exactly right about progressive logic. It is assumed, a priori, that there are no relevant differences between the races. Any differences in test results, therefore, must be attributable to bias. Question: Why is it assumed, a priori, that there are no relevant differences between the races? Answer: Progressive dogma. Anyone who challenges this dogma is branded a racist, which, in today's politically correct climate, is the worst thing a person can be. (It can be a career ender.) It's quite a scam, isn't it? The sad thing is that so many academics participate in it. So much for intellectual honesty. So much for being a veracious inquirer.
