Idiot White Preschoolers Think You Can Become Black When You Grow Up
(WWJ) – Can a person’s race change over time? No — but preschoolers seem to think so. According to a University of Michigan study, white preschoolers often believe a person’s race can change over time, and the youngsters even think they can can grow up to become black adults. Steven Roberts, a U-M doctoral student and the study’s lead author, said that although children may be aware of races other than their own, they don’t have a strong understanding of what race is — at least not to the degree of adults. Researchers showed participants pictures of children who were happy or angry and black or white, and asked them to indicate which of two adults each child would grow up to be. One adult matched the child in emotion (but not race) and the other matched the child in race (but not emotion). White adults, white 9- to 10-year-olds and racial minority 5- to 6-year-olds selected the same-race matches, which meant they believed, for instance, that a white child would grow up to be a white adult. But white 5- to 6-year-olds showed a different pattern. They selected the same-emotion and same-race matches at equal rates, which meant they were not committed to the belief that race was stable.
What idiots! Stupid fucking moron kids think you change race as you grow up? Bet they think that Santa Claus is real and the Tooth Fairy is some tooth-collecting, money-handing out psychopath too. I was off studies but I need a million more of these. In fact, let’s do more than make studies, let’s make a TV show. “How Fucking Dumb Is This Kid?” and we just have Alex Trebex quiz five year olds about shit while the crowd laughs and yells at them.
Who painted the Mona Lisa? No, not mommy you goddamn moron! BOOOOOOO! BOO THIS BABY! BOOOOOOO!!!!
Though, to be fair, the most distressing part of this article isn’t that children think they grow up to change race, it’s the fact that they think their emotions stay the same. Kids thought happy, white children become happy, black adults. They thought that emotion is a more defined constant than race. That’s on the quiz givers, if you ask me. If you wanted to make this study realistic then all the adults would have been angry, as there’s no such thing as a happy adult. Race is forever, kids. Happiness is a youth thing. Just look at me, I’m sitting here writing a blog post about how dumb five year olds are, you think that’s what happy John had in mind 20 years ago? Nope. Still white though, so I got that going for me, which is nice.
