ESPN take<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Steve Sailer’s take<\/a>:<\/p>\n

For instance, talking honestly about soccer reveals that much of what nice upper middle class people say out loud about diversity and immigration isn\u2019t true. There isn\u2019t a lot of talent coming from Mexico, even in soccer. There especially isn\u2019t much female talent from south of the border. Massive Latino immigration doesn\u2019t make America more sophisticated; it makes the population more backward and knuckleheadedly macho. Privileged whites don\u2019t actually want their children exposed to diversity; they will spend a lot of money to keep them, especially their daughters, in a cocoon as white as (say) the U.S. Women\u2019s World Cup team.<\/p>\n

These are not, when it comes down to it, ignoble desires. In fact, they\u2019re quite reasonable.<\/p>\n

What is unreasonable is how the same people who spend huge sums to protect their own children from diversity will, at the same time, demonize their less privileged fellow citizens as racists for asking for some help from their government in guarding America\u2019s borders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
