Data scientist DESTROYS the BLM narrative | Larry Elder

Zac Kriegman had the ideal résumé for the professional-managerial class: a bachelor's in economics from Michigan and a J.D. from Harvard and years of experience with high-tech startups, a white-shoe law firm, and an econometrics research consultancy. He then spent six years at Thomson Reuters Corporation, the international media conglomerate, spearheading the company’s efforts on artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced software engineering. By the beginning of 2020, Kriegman had assumed the title of Director of Data Science and was leading a team tasked with implementing deep learning throughout the organization.

But within a few months, this would all collapse. A chain of events—beginning with the death of George Floyd and culminating with a statistical analysis of Black Lives Matter’s claims—would turn the 44-year-old data scientist’s life upside-down. By June 2021, Kriegman would be locked out of Reuters’s servers, denounced by his colleagues, and fired by email. Kriegman had committed an unpardonable offense: he directly criticized the Black Lives Matter movement in the company’s internal communications forum, debunked Reuters’s own biased reporting, and violated a corporate taboo. Driven by what he called a “moral obligation” to speak out, Kriegman refused to celebrate unquestioningly the BLM narrative and his company’s “diversity and inclusion” programming; to the contrary, he argued that Reuters was exhibiting significant left-wing bias in the newsroom and that the ongoing BLM protests, riots, and calls to “defund the police” would wreak havoc on minority communities. Week after week, Kriegman felt increasingly disillusioned by the Thomson Reuters line. Finally, on the first Tuesday in May 2021, he posted a long, data-intensive critique of BLM’s and his company’s hypocrisy. He was sent to Human Resources and Diversity & Inclusion for the chance to reform his thoughts.

I have been a Chicago police officer for 24 years, and I can tell you your assertions are correct. There has been a break down in family values in black communities as a result of ultra liberal views pertaining to culpability. There are way too many children being raised in single parent households. There is also subpar mating behavior; improper vetting of mate selection. As a "Black" officer I have observed this for 24 years.

Kriegman’s story and analysis should be everywhere. It’s a travesty that more people aren’t talking about this. At least Larry Elder is out there doing the right thing.

That's a Damm lie. I'm a Hispanic male that my twin brother is an officer. Police officers don't go around thinking this way. But back in the day growing up in the city it was always black on black or Hispanic. COME ON MAN!! LARRY YOU ARE AWESOME THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE.

[brob-zyzi]

The media isn't ignorant. They know the facts. But, distorting the facts is what makes them money. If one lie can create a continuous debacle they continue to benefit from you being glued to the television. It's the gift that keeps on giving for them.

I'm Australian and I would, in a heartbeat, vote for Larry if I was American. His a great man with integrity and strong moral character.

[larcoal]

UNREAL how Larry continues to crush things! This was eye-opening. Find public office soon Larry.

[llamamama]

Fear rules by running false narratives. Thank you for THE TRUTH Larry. You are the BEST

[JennD]

Yes! I have done all this research myself and my numbers match yours! I am so glad you are sharing the true numbers! Thank you!

It's plain to see that these activists are deliberately fanning the flames of violence, meanwhile getting rich from people's misery and tragedy.

[DisabusingTheLeft]

Hey Lebron, the cops that show up on a scene or pull a driver over for violating law DON'T KNOW HOW THAT PERSON WOKE UP THAT Did they get fired from their job? Are they high on drugs? Are they a repeat criminal with outstanding warrants willing to kill a cop to get away? Do they have a hidden weapon on them? DO THEY HATE COPS ?!?!?! If you aren't breaking the law, you don't have to worry about a confrontation with the cops. Just be a good citizen and respect the rights of others and the law, and you will be fine.

What did Human Resources honestly think the results would be? And thank you, Mr. Elder for bringing this report and this man’s firing to the public’s attention.

[jeffroberts]

I.love.larry.
He saved me from a life of self-imposed victimhood and misery.

Truth.

Sustaining the racism narrative is vital to the Dems political survival.

[justineld]

Yes another instance where we are not allowed to "follow the science." Or in this case, "follow the data."

Despicable. The big corporate media should be ashamed of themselves.

[matthewheikes]

Good to see some people standing up for the truth, thanks for sharing the reality.

[ExMachina]

What’s crazy is that Larry sounds like he’s anti-black, but the reality is he’s seeing the problems within the black community. You can’t fix a problem if you can’t even admit the problems exist.

[shoat]

People in general aren't just dumb or ignorant they are just plain stupid. Thanks again Larry for a great narrative as to how our world really is. Lord help us before it's too late.

[ExMachina]

It’s crazy that BLM can be so hyperbolic and yet unquestioned at the same time.

I grew up in the hood, I am Middle Eastern. I have been beat up numerous times, Robbed numerous times, car stolen numerous times, housebroken and to numerous times. ALL by POC.

I moved to a white suburban area and none of those things have ever happened. In fact my neighbors race me to shovel my snow, take out my garbage, . They let me know of upcoming events and they help me out whenever I need help. And no one has ever tried to steal or breaking of my cars or house.
