The "bottom quintile" at school that I remember were the low status - the bullied, the eccentric and the outcast as opposed to the future criminals, welfare recipients and greatest tax burdens.
Administration is the worst about it; the first three groups get scrutinized and raked over the coals if they have one cross word with a teacher while the last three are given a free pass once they make it aware teachers have no means to deal with them.
With no malice and respect for an honest mistake easily made, it's "raked over the coals".
Unlike current public school administrators I just believe upholding standards isn't automatically insulting.
We should be able to edit other people's comments for grammar, with some kind of community notes type system to prevent abuse.
It's like the broken windows theory, where bad grammar begets more bad grammar.
If we give them the power to fix things themselves but take away the pretense for bitching, are we giving them power or taking it away?
Mein Fuhrer, I heard zomeone say ze words "Grammar Nazi." Vhat es ze nature of ze language misuse?
Hehe, very fair. Mea culpa.
With all malice. You a fag.
You write the rhythm. Tasteless fool. It's bard.
Yes, that was 20 years ago.
I went to a 99% White school. The botton quintile were angels compared to jungle city schools.
he gets kicked off of twitter if he says blacks like he really means
everyone knows it, nobody who wants to be able to participate in "normal" society is allowed to say it and keep his job
These people need to just learn to say niggers. It's much more concise and accurate
University courses are designed to accommodate the bottom quintile.
Its really the bottom 5% who do 55% of the crime.
I think we're not giving ratchet kweens enough credit here. The only thing keeping their numbers down is their fatassed inability to run or fight as well.
You'll have to forgive my ignorance on this one- is it saying bottom five percent, or bottom fifth (20%)?
Bottom fifth.
As someone has already said, bottom fifth.
If it helps remember it, if it ends in -ile it's a quantile, where you divide the group into that number of equal portions. See also (per)centile.
You can imagine actual tiles:
Quin-, five tiles, each being 1/5 or 20% of the whole.
Venti-, twenty tiles, each being 1/20 or 5%.
Cent-, hundred tiles, 1/100 or 1%.
The only one you're ever likely to see that's not a tile is decile which is hard to get wrong. You just have to know how to count in Latin.
Him, a DM : "the curse changes your very make up"
Me, an autist : "but I'm not wearing any make-up"
You can say blacks & browns.
Back in ye olden times the bottom quintile died because they couldn't look after themselves. Now we have to bail them out and keep them and their kids alive almost in spite of themselves.
Or we could, you know, demand better of them and enforce that demand.

You mean that's the excuse those with power will wave in front of your faces because the blame has to be put anywhere but on themselves.
It's more that's the tool those with power will happily cultivate to suppress those they worry may have the ability to actually supplant them. Both can be problems in their own right.
The weapons industry is the bottom quintile?
In morality.
bottom 20%, quintile.
I grew up in a nearly all white town in Idaho.
The "bottom quintile" from my school are now mostly running successful businesses in the trades, raising families, and taking care of their homes.
The "well educated" are in two camps -- people who got useful degrees and are mostly doing quite well, and people who got shit degrees and now have a 2 decade career running the ticket window at a movie theater and blame all of their problems on the white heternormative capitalist patriarchy.
I grew up in a similar town. There's basically been no social mobility. Everyone who was poor, is as poor as they were. Everyone who is rich is as rich as they were.
The real problem is that a lot of them already didn't have children, or ended up in prison or dead as it is. As such, the neighborhoods will continue to decay.
Education is a misnomer and is really just a way to convince people to go into education. In reality, people just aren't saving money and building wealth (because no one ever showed them how). People with good educations didn't necessarily get good jobs, and if they did, they left. Had they started a business instead of being a corporate wage recipient, the situation would be different.
There really weren't that many poor kids in my town. In fact, I was one of the few in that category.
But the main thing that made the town a pleasant place to live is that even though there were some poor people, they weren't out committing crime and they didn't intimidate and attack other students. They were usually in church with most everyone else.
Despite the presence of churches, it didn't help that some poor people were still going to act and be trashy, which kept them in the same place they started in.
I think they'd all tell you they believed in God, but I have no idea if they listened.
I don't care if they end up in the same place they started -- that's got nothing to do with the discussion. I don't understand why you think this has anything to do with social mobility.
As long as they don't end up at my place stealing or breaking shit or generally holding other productive people back, they aren't a problem to me, and really aren't relevant to the discussion. The "bottom quintile" was generally not a problem for anybody in my town.
Poor culture is the bottom quintile, whatever and whomever it will be.
If it wasn't anyone in your town, then good. You were lucky.
It's funny how much more money the guy has who saved his life on a modest income vs the high income earner who bought himself everything he thinks he deserved.
Eventually you have this guy who only makes 75k a year, but his house is paid off, he has no car bill, etc. He's living off that and socking away.
People don't even realize that they can have a good life never making more than 30k a year, because they don't realize how to properly invest and save. It's harder, but it's doable.
Frankly, the weird thing about the debt system is that if you were actually good with paying your debt back, it's the absolute fastest way to build wealth from $0
Well, leverage is certainly something that financially intelligent people understand. You don't have to be super sophisticated, but I think it makes sense to take loans on things when interest rates are low on things where you can get a good interest rate -- like a house. But you still wanna pay it off because then if you're into it you can take out another, bigger loan.
Tax evasion is also a great thing. Certain investments are privileged, so as dumb as that may be you play along I guess.
Obviously. That's part of the problem. It's a loser mentality and attitude that our culture and society institutionalizes into most people, particularly the poor.
Idk why the best argument I get from darkies about cutting out the hoodlums is that “have you ever seen trailer trash? Why don’t white people take care of them?”
Uhh, even the worst trailer trash I’ve ever seen always work hard and don’t shy away from participating in the community. Hands down the amount of non-drug related crimes I’ve seen in my mostly white hometown was one robbery and pedos (they are pretty much in every community).
Obviously we got bad apples, but our bad apples aren’t so numerous of which they actively drive down property values by the thousands
Almost every trailer trash I know got their drugs from a black guy. They got busted and started their rap sheet doing dumb shit with a black guy. Their daughter's life got ruined by fucking a black guy and having his baby.
Like, most places where there is an amount of white trash higher than a statistical anomaly is also a place with or near a large black population. And the two feed into each other back and forth.
I'm from the places where the white trash do in fact destroy entire towns. We had a subdivision of them get so bad they were expelled from the town and given their own separate zipcode. But I can't think of one of them who didn't have their path to hell start at some negro's house (or the bar, but that's universal).

Hahahahaha.
Are you saying the spic-nig cycle wasn't called the Limey-Kraut cycle for a reason?!
Disingenuous is trying to apply a narrow viewpoint to a broad scope in an attempt to prove something.
Everyone already knows your "not all x are y" argument and understand that the bottom quintile being referred to is a national metric, not a state level one.
It wouldn't still have been on Twitter to get screencapped if he just came out and said it.
