You seem very fixated on what you perceive to be my ideology. Your fixations are misplaced and inaccurate.
So what's your explanation for why your words match progressives' catechism? What hypothesis matches the facts better than you wearing ideological blinders? The circumstance that you can't get it right after all those years and the circumstance that the erroneous theory you came up with is the precise well-poison that progressivism always uses against liberalism is just a coincidence?
Wow. Yes, Loren has for years explained to me how not racist he is while bemoaning that Black students and Hispanic students get into Harvard.
If Loren has for years been bemoaning that Black students and Hispanic students get into Harvard, then you should have no difficulty quoting him doing so. Quote him.
And about how undeserving those students are for not having had the wisdom of being born to families who could send them to a handful of select high schools.
Once again, quote him. It never happened. You are putting words in his mouth. That's not something you would do if you had goodwill towards him.
The problem, evidently, is that he has blasphemed, and you have been primed to think the worst of blasphemers. So when he said something that your ideology teaches its adherents to regard as just as immoral as "they're undeserving for not having had the wisdom of being born to families who could send them to a handful of select high schools", you reacted to it emotionally as if he'd actually said that. And then, months or years later, you remember not his words but your emotional reaction to his words. Then you retrospectively accuse him of words you compose now that would have caused the same emotional reaction then, even though they're not what he said. And you apparently aren't ashamed of doing that, apparently because whatever he actually said was according to your ideology just as bad, so he's a bad person who isn't deserving of truthfulness.
If my fixation on your ideology is inaccurate, then seriously, why did you claim Loren said something so ridiculous, something nobody would ever say? Did you imagine readers would take your word for it? Did you think you wouldn't get called on it? Did you think nobody would ask for a quote? Do you live in a bubble where your listeners typically accept such accusations uncritically because the guy you make them against is in their outgroup?
Your reliability as a witness aside, there's something else also going on here. You and Loren evidently have different notions of what criteria schools should use for deciding admissions. He thinks it's wrong to hold race against an applicant; you appear to think it's wrong to hold anything against an applicant that isn't her own fault. So if, hypothetically, Loren indicated that it's okay with him for a college to reject a student for not going to one of the select high schools, then combining your moral premise with Loren's judgment would together imply not going to one of those high schools was the student's own fault so she was undeserving. I.e., you appear to have derived the words you put in his mouth like this:
He says X.
I believe Y.
X and Y imply Z.
------------------
Therefore, he says Z.
That is a fallacious inference.
Oh, I forgot about the deficits in 'black culture.'
What about them? If you think any of Loren's claims about deficits in 'black culture' imply that what family a child is born to is unwise or her own fault, or that it's bad for a Black student to get into Harvard, or that all Black students are low-achieving, or that Asian students deserve "all the slots in every incoming class of freshmen at Harvard and any other highly selective school", or any of the other absurdities you've put in his mouth, quote him and show your work.
I was unaware that being progressive was a religion outside of the minds of those who are looking for ways to cast aspersions upon those with whom they disagree.
Of course you were. The family resemblance between progressivism and Christianity is obvious to outsiders but I would no more expect a progressive or a Christian to see it than I'd expect a Christian to see how much like Islam his opinions are.
Since you are fond of doing so, I will take it that is your religion and those who do not align with your beliefs are, in your POV, heretics or apostate.
Apostate?!? What, like progressives have betrayed and abandoned liberalism? That's ridiculous. You were never liberals.
