>I think that's a dog whistle

By today's standards? Yeah, it probably is. I don't even care anymore though. Homogenous societies have fewer problems of inequality, less crime, more social cohesion. We've known this since Aristotle in Greece, since Marcus Aurelias in Rome, and probably with some other writers I can't think of in between then and now.

It's not a statement of any one group being better than another.

It's not a statement that I don't enjoy many aspects of our diverse society.

It's merely a rebuttal to your argument.

Cancel me as you see fit.

"It's not a statement of any one group being better than another. It's not a statement that I don't enjoy many aspects of our diverse society."

If you are coming clean, then please continue, what groups are you talking about? And what attribute are you declaring causes a 'lack of homogeny'?

> what groups are you talking about?

Any divide you wish to draw, I'm not drawing them. SF is more diverse than Krakow when you account for race, place of birth, religion, sexuality/gender identity.

>And what attribute are you declaring causes a 'lack of homogeny'?

A diverse population has less homogeneity.

Keep fishing, but get better bait.

its ok, I know what you are saying, even though you won't say it.
Why be so coy? Call me out if you have something to say, jboy
You should have the balls to stand up for your beliefs, and you admit you hide behind dog whistles, so why keep hiding. You hide your reasons behind the cloak. Again, its doesn't matter, I have a good idea on your defining characteristic, its been the whispered excuse for 50-60 years as to why the scores low on education or health. I've been around plenty of people who don't have any qualms about removing the cloak, and your arguments are exactly the same.
