Reality has a well known racial bias.
How do we know the prior statements are true? Because big data doesn't lie, only aggregating disparate information to create a profile illuminating racial truths egalitarians spend every waking hour attempting to refute/obfuscate. [Scotland Yard's 'unhelpful gangs matrix' under fire over 'stigmatising young black men', Evening Standard, May 10, 2018]:
A secretive Scotland Yard gangs database that contains the personal details of 1,500 people who reportedly pose little or no risk of violence has come under fire.
The Metropolitan Police’s Gangs Matrix holds information on about 3,800 people, around 40 per cent of whom are said to have a harm score of “zero”.
An investigation by the data watchdog has been launched into the force’s database after an Amnesty International report, published on Wednesday, found it breaches international human rights laws.
It was branded "racially discriminative" and said to "stigmatise young black men" over issues like the type of music they listen to and their social media presence.
The Met said its matrix helps to thwart violence, saves lives and can help prevent people from being drawn into gang crime.
But critics have said those on the matrix can be subject to punitive measures across the public sector, covering employment, housing, driving licences and education.
Amnesty International’s UK Director Kate Allen said: "There is clearly a huge problem with knife crime violence at the moment in London, but the Gangs Matrix is not the answer. It's part of an unhelpful and racialised focus on the concept of gangs. Put simply, it's the wrong tool for the wrong problem.
"The entire system is racially discriminatory, stigmatising young black men for the type of music they listen to or their social media behaviour, and perpetuating racial bias with potential impacts in all sorts of areas of their lives.
"Some police officers have been acting like they're in the wild west, making the false assumptions that they can set up fake profiles and covertly befriend people online to monitor them without needing the appropriate search warrants.
"The Mayor of London needs to dismantle the Matrix unless he can bring it in line with international human rights standards."
Amnesty found that the number of black men on the Matrix is disproportionate.
Figures from July 2016 showed that 87 per cent of the people listed were black, Asian and minority ethnic, and 78 per cent were black.
For London as a whole, 13 per cent of the population is black, and police figures show 27 per cent of those prosecuted for youth violence are black.
Reality has a well known racial bias, and the day will come when it once again dictates social policy.
