People have made massive changes to their lives based on the threat of racial violence - the actual level of it is a low background compared to what would be the case if everyone didn't go to great lengths to isolate themselves from *problematic* demographics

#last - Obviously, sane people prefer not to live in ghettos or trailer parks. But, this claim that in a typical integrated, middle-income city like my Frankfort, a typical guy is in danger from roving mobs of Blacks or poor whites or whatever is statistical nonsense.2 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -

No, it is not. Black people make up 14% of the country, overall, and 15% of those who attack whites. This is the actual national crime report, from a GOP administration. https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/cv18.pdf …

I think this is a key point for people who don't take the Flaherty argument seriously. Now, first, if you send me your e-mail via DM, I will send you a list of absurd white-on-Black crimes, most of which involve a video. I'm not going to get into a one-for-one on a comments line.

In other words you can't come up with shut videos of white on black violence. Don't feel bad. Many have claimed they could but never followed through. You are not the first, nor will you be the last

Literally just e-mail me. I'm going to keep engaging here, because I find this argument so remarkably weak. First (1) I already responded. Second, (2) real scientists don't base their crime rate data on YouTube fight videos. Are you serious?

When you have good reason to suspect dishonesty in official data, a good sanity check is to turn to anecdotal evidence - check the patterns found in a large number of anecdotes. Expect more of this as society moves to a low trust equilibrium with lower institutional honesty.

There is almost literally no reason to suspect that millions of people are telling (1) federal agents and (2) that nice same-race woman in the room with the camcorder that their rapist was white when he was Black. Not one serious scientist has ever argued this.

Not saying there's any reason to distrust crime reports but society is indeed moving towards being lower trust and one of the causes is pervasive dishonesty on the part of most institutions - including federal law enforcement.
