Are quantum supremists White or Black

Academics derided, claiming-quantum-supremacy is racist

This has got to be those left wing professors who hate democracy and anything to do with capitalism and getting things done in the world...!

I mean Google is one of the top companies for ethnic diversity, Christ even the top man Sundar Pichai is from India!

Doesn't make a lot of sense to me to object to the term.

Jeez...this is what happens when folks have too much time to think of new stuff to come up with

And I thought USA left wingers were getting touchy. Will all the businesses that use supreme in their name have to use a different term?

What about The Supremes? Should we smash all their records then?

We need a Picard FacePalm smiley.

Another example that science is being debased by politically correct insanity.

Rantz: Seattle Schools document say math is oppressive, US government racist

We are living in a society that is reliving (figuratively) the French Revolution and where McCarthyism has been resurrected by the Democrats. The mere accusation "I accuse" by a politically correct pundit, is now sufficient for an immediate finding of guilt and punishment.

Yes, they did a song about pedophilia...

For those who don't remember the song to which UG refers, it's title is "Baby Love" - but to be honest, I never took the word "baby" to be literal.

Since we are suddenly discussing taboo topics in music, here is an aside for you to consider, from the great Cole Porter by way of K.D. Lang:

The link here that got to me was that it would be racist to correct a student's math error. My response would be to terminate the employment or association of the members of that panel who came up with that recommendation. They border on total insanity.

I'm actually less worried about the "quantum supremacy" comments because as noted, that is a sign of someone with too much time on their hands. But the ESAC from Seattle got PAID to make that report. Talk about peeing money down a deep hole!

The SAT are now inherently racist, also reading writing and arithmetic.

But you know what isn't racist? Abortion, disproportionally performed on minority communities of color.

Headlong back to the days where the general public was uneducated and thus easier to control by those in power (so they think).

When I was a kid, my dad told me (tongue in cheek) that Frank Sinatra was a racist .... for Dreaming of a White Christmas.

That would have been Bing Crosby!

Being in Europe, I get asked from time to time "how do you like having a racist for a President?"

My response is "I don't, that's why we replaced him with Trump!"

NOT a popular response...

LOL! Nicely turned. I found it very frustrating when Obama was president that disagreement with his policies was often met with accusations of being a racist.

The Civil Rights movement is no longer about equality, but leveraging "race identification" (identity politics). That is totally contrary to Martin Luther Kings dream of judging people by their character, not their skin color. Today we are witnessing the total lack of character by Democrats and their deranged use of McCarthyism to undermine the US political process.
