[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]You still don't seem to get it. Bethesda is hardly the front lines of diversity. What I'm saying is that there are many very progressive diversity-embracing white folks living IN the city. For whom the supposed "liberal hypocrisy" of "oh, we need more diversity, just not here" most certainly does not apply, i.e. the white folks living in 70-80% non-white neighborhoods. Whereas, you will find very FEW conservatives living in those same neighborhoods, fewer even than you will find in "snort, Bethesda" because guess what, there are indeed far more gun loving Trump supporting conservatives in Bethesda than there are in most of DC's Wards.

NP - but even those white folks living in the city are hustling in the charter lottery in order to get a spot at a whiter, more affluent, school because charters require that you have your act together and your own transportation.

Public education is the biggest indicator of whether someone is willing to put their money where their mouth is  If Black people are good enough to live down the street, but not good enough to be in a classroom with your child, you are a hypocrite.  [/quote]

Um, that "whiter more affluent charter hustle" in DC likely still has far more socioeconomic diversity than your Bethesda school, which last time I checked were over 60% white.  There's likely more white kids in your kid's Bethesda classroom than there are in that "hustled affluent DC charter" you're complaining about.  So again, mind those glass houses.[/quote]
