I don’t know all of them, but 311 = 3 11 = 3 k(the 11th letter) = kkk. 14 is the number of words in some racist slogan, “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children”

And if you see a 1488, there’s just no chance it’s a coincidence. Now that I think of it, I’m not sure you see the 14 by itself all that much. But 1488 seems to be pretty common. From the little I know of such things.

As Taber wrote, 14 is a code for _“We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White Children”_ which is the motto of the Order, a white supremacist organization. Racists wanted to put a little shade on it in prison so they started referring to this message as the Fourteen Words.

The rest are based on a simple alphanumeric code; a=1, b=2, c=3, etc.

18 - AH - Adolf Hitler  
23 - W - White supremacy  
28 - BH - Blood and Honor (the motto of the SS)  
83 - HC - Heil Christ (Christian Identity is a racist group that really misinterpreted Jesus’ message)  
88 - HH - Heil Hitler  
311 - 3 K’s - Ku Klux Klan  
33/5 - 33 is again 3 K’s (this obviously only works for the advanced level Klansmen who have mastered multiplication). The 5 stands for the current Klan which is supposedly the fifth revival of the organization.

That’s funny, because 18 is a very important number in Jewish custom - it’s the numerical value of the word [Chai](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chai_(symbol))or “alive”.

There you go. Numerology proves that Hitler is alive.

He is referring to statistical averages - ie. different bell curves.

I agree that doesn’t infer superiority or otherwise, but that is a common tactic by those who want to shut down discussion. They simply say, of so you mean X are inferior, which is of course not what is being said.

Minor nitpick: The motto of the _SS_ was “Meine Ehre heißt Treue,” “my honor is fidelity.”

“Blood and Honor” was the motto of the\* Hitler-Jugend\*. (“Blut und Ehre”, in German.)

Other than that, rock on.

What is the significance of 88? 😕

No, but it is often what is being meant.

Look at the other thread - already you and others are suggesting that such a statistical difference should allow us to handwave away potential incidences of discrimination because _of course_ black people aren’t going to do as well as white people overall.

Please don’t misrepresent what I say, I don’t suggest that discrimination on the basis of skin color should be handwaved away.

I suggested that a possibly policy implication is that unequal representation should not be taken as prima facie evidence of discrimination because under a meritocratic system you would expect unequal representation ([based on test differences](http://www.udel.edu/educ/gottfredson/reprints/2000skillsgaps.pdf)). Princeton bio-ethicist Peter Singer makes this point in his book [‘A Darwinian Left’](http://www.utilitarian.net/singer/by/1999----02.htm):

> [@](#):
>
> A Darwinian left would not:

> • Deny the existence of a human nature, nor insist that human nature is inherently good, nor that it is infinitely malleable;
> 
> • Expect to end all conflict and strife between human beings, whether by political revolution, social change, or better education;
> 
> • **Assume that all inequalities are due to discrimination, prejudice, oppression or social conditioning. Some will be, but this cannot be assumed in every case;**

I provided you with a paper by Professor Amy Wax which discusses this in the context of the 4/5 rule.

Isn’t “blood and honor” an orc motto in WoW?

I just came across this thread. Awesome! Dedicated solely to my lonesome. Ya, I roasted y’all in those previous debates, didn’t I!

For those interested, check out how I systematically demolished the anti-racist claims
