Source for this?

Hang on - did you just say your high school taught you in debate classes that you have to hold up and read out pages of whatever you are referencing, instead of allowing your audience to note-take and search for it later?

Is this some kind of Democrat-run county?

Actually, yes, one is supposed to use fact-based evidence when stating claims like yours (which don't really need evidence to begin with, we aren't a bunch of hopeless negros waiting to be enslaved). That doesn't necessarily mean "read a 150 pg essay", but at least say "according to >insert source here<..."

Show where in your post you specifically named this study of yours, thus making it easy to search? Because I can show where you didn't do that.

Let's look, shall we?:



Hmm, I don't see any names put in here for convenient, easy searching. Do you?


Is this your first time on the internet? Because I won't be your guide.

The first result in all 197 countries of copying "A group of 130 black kids" will lead you straight to the study I was referring to.

If I wrote an essay or I was the topic creator or something was impossible to find without a hyperlink, I would have sourced anything I claimed. I did neither of the three. End of story.

Almost detonated there.

It's not the end of the story. The end of the story is when you admit you wrong, and press CTRL-C and then CTRL-V.

Oh yeah, just so everybody knows, Trumptonium used a study based on IQ tests to say that those 130 black kids - or black kid/people in general - are stupid (?). But the thing is, the inventor of IQ tests himself stated that IQ tests are not accurate enough information to scale someone's inteliigence. And guess what! Imma use a source! https://www.verywell.com/history-of-int ... ng-2795581:

"This first intelligence test, referred to today as the Binet-Simon Scale, became the basis for the intelligence tests still in use today. However, Binet himself did not believe that his psychometric instruments could be used to measure a single, permanent, and inborn level of intelligence.

Binet stressed the limitations of the test, suggesting that intelligence is far too broad a concept to quantify with a single number. Instead, he insisted that intelligence is influenced by a number of factors, changes over time, and can only be compared among children with similar backgrounds."

The sad part about this is that I even had to go through this because some white people wanna say that my race is dumb. Internet people can be so mean.

Solidarity against fascists.

They divide us by our color; they divide us by our tongue,
They divide us men and women; they divide us old and young,
But they'll tremble at our voices, when they hear these verses sung,
For the Union makes us strong!

Usually if you want your argument taken seriously (and it's also just goddam manners) that you post your source when you cite something.

What?
I had to for my composition English classes.

Is it bad to research and have sources or?
Should we be more ashamed that it isn't a standard?

This is just one of many sites that describe citations in university, high school, and even middle school.

Also not to mention the various schools in the U.S and the world, whose sites likely include some mention of citation.

Um....the US? My school requires us to write research papers - I think every grade level - and we need to cite our sources and use complete sentences. It's literally a part of making essays in English, and in Speech in Debate (I took that class in freshman year of high school, hated the views of some people in there), we had to cite our sources.

No, your school's normal imo, cuz my school did that too. I'm pretty that's what most schools do in the US.

That was a little bit ago though. There are things you can use online though to help generate properly formatted citations.

Local schools are given money based off of property taxes.
It's a strong inequality of our society.
