Progressive Myths w/ Dr. Michael Huemer & Keith Knight

by | Oct 16, 2024

[H]omicides committed by blacks against whites are more than twice as common as homicides by whites against blacks in the U.S., despite that there are 5.6 times more white people than black people in the U.S. A randomly chosen black person is thus 13 times more likely to kill a white person than a random white person is to kill a black person. (p. 32)

Males make up only 50% of the population but 95.5% of the police shooting victims. (p. 63)

The gender pay gap statistics do not control for occupation or other relevant factors. In other words, they are not, in fact, about the same work or equal work. Rather, almost all of the gap is due to men and women doing different work. (p.100)

[M]en suffer over 90% of all workplace deaths in America each year.(p. 105)

Michael Huemer (BA, UC Berkeley; PhD, Rutgers University) is a professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado at Boulder.
