You would figure by stated liberal ideologies that, in the epicenter of their control, New York City, which has served as ground zero for the implementation of policies aimed at dismantling politically incorrect exclusionary politics, you would find the most tolerant and ecstatically supportive communities in the country.  Well this mythical zeitgeist was notably dismantled today as it has become public knowledge that a rich portion of Brooklyn wants to shutdown a city move to integrate their district public schools with the poor Blacks and Hispanics.

Residents of Dumbo, a relatively newly developed neighborhood in Brooklyn, is home to a forest of condominiums serving affluent financiers, techies and creative professionals.  In all fairness,the residents of Dumbo have valid concerns, since schools with a majority of poor students in attendance tend to fare worse academically than schools with better-off students.  But the hypocrisy lies in the fact the Dumbo residents, all proud, blue-card-holding progressives, would have undoubtedly jumped on the war path if this same situation had occurred in Atlanta, Georgia, or Birmingham, Alabama.  Situations like this only make it shockingly clear that the liberal agenda is nothing more than hypocritical feel-good cronyism, where the founders and supports do not seek to live in the society they have helped “fundamentally transform.”
