The anti-Chavez

Randall Parker quotes Heather Mac Donald on the Hispanic realities you won’t hear about from Linda (“The Liar”) Chavez, who conceals the actual systemic dysfunction in the U.S. Hispanic population by lumping all Hispanics (e.g. white middle-class Cubans, mixed-race largely Negro Dominicans, and Mestizo Mexicans) into one unit. Indeed, Chavez’s upbeat assessment of Hispanic progress in America uses a similar logic to the Bushites’ upbeat assessment of democracy-building progress in Iraq: “Hey, the real story is that things are going just great in Iraq, because outside Baghdad and a few other places, there are almost no terrorist attacks! Why do the media conceal this good news?”
