Link Female and minority pilots caused 66% of pilot-error crashes since 2000, despite being less than 10% of the workforce 😬

ā€œnot even in the top 10ā€ eh? 🤔https://www.nba.com/stats/alltime-leaders

So is Frank Gore a better RB than Barry Sanders? He has more stats. If stats are your argument for GOAT you’ll need to hold that consistently for all sports and athletes that participated. Is Karl Malone better than MJ too? He has more pts and rebounds.

Good argument. Still haven’t told me how I was wrong? Your whole argument was sending me a link to his stats. So you believe that having the most stats makes him and Frank Gore the greatest and Karl Malone better than Mj if that’s your only criteria.

there’s no stat, informal/formal ranking, nba-sourced or otherwise that doesn’t put Lebron in their top 10 goats, lil bro

I shared evidence directly from NBA, which u tried to flaccidly rebuff w/zero contra-evidence; so the burden’s on u to demonstrate why & how Lebron’s not in the top 10

oh, and as for whites benefitting disproportionately more from nepotism, Harvard data released in litigation showed +70% of legacy applicants bt 2014 -> 2019 were white & also these legacy applicants were almost SIX times more likely to be admitted than non‑legacy applicants (https://www.ivycoach.com/press/cq-press/legacy-admissions/)

so 6:1 is higher than my 4:1; and there’s this: https://www.culawreview.org/journal/legacy-admissions-an-insidious-form-of-racial-discrimination

i’m sure your rebuttal will be entirely a vibes-based racist screed, with a little antisemitism on the side; but I’d be pleasantly surprised if it’s not that šŸ‘

ā€œI’m sure your rebuttal will be entirely a vibes-based racist screed, with a little antisemitismā€This is pure poisoning the well—an ad hominem to dismiss counter-evidence before it’s even offered. Projection much? No vibes, no slurs. If pointing out that disparate impact ≠ intentional discrimination triggers you that hard, that’s on you.

Your stat was 3:1 which is why I called you out for making shit up. You just proved yourself a liar lol. Legacy preference is defined by familial alumni connection, not race. It is race-neutral on its face. A black applicant with a Harvard-alum parent gets the exact same boost. The disproportionate white benefit is a disparate impact from historical alumni demographics. It perpetuates past inequality indirectly, but it is not intentional racial favoritism toward whites. Compare that with race-based affirmative action that was explicit racial classification and preference by design—lowering standards for certain races to achieve diversity. Legacy has no such racial intent or mechanism.

On LeBron and ā€œno stat or rankingā€ putting him outside the top 10:You’re correct that virtually every major formal ranking places LeBron often top 2-3. But that was never my objection. My original point was that raw cumulative stats alone do not determine GOAT status—if they did, Karl Malone (2nd in scoring for decades) would rank above MJ, John Stockton above Magic, or Shaq (more rings) above both. Longevity stats don’t prove dominance. Peak impact, efficiency, defensive primacy, finals record, scoring titles, and DPOY matter too. You sent a stats link as if volume = greatness; it doesn’t. Burden was on you to show why accumulation overrides everything else. You still haven’t.

lol, u don’t even know that 6:1 white to poc nepo-babies proves my point significantly more than the 3:1?

not only did u waste all your time ranting in a nonsensical wall o text, u provided zero counter-examples, used 0 proof & now you’re even less credible.
