Affirmative action (Harvard Supreme Court case)

https://www.npr.org/2022/01/24/10030...ntial-hit-list
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-a...rous-rcna13544

The liberal media is calling opponents of affirmative action "white supremacists" because they don't want public institutions to factor an applicant's race into their admission's criteria?

This is fuking bullchit. I read these "news" articles and silently raged into my cup of coffee. They even quoted some self-hating Asian Americans to support affirmative action, when almost every single fuking Asian American I've talked to is against affirmative action because of how it unfairly works against them in college admissions.

Harvard and many Ivy League schools have already successfully kept straight white men off their campuses. Take Harvard for example, about 50% of the 2021 incoming class were white, but jews are categorized as white as well, which helps hide jewish privilege(2% of the population, minimum of 25% of all students across almost all Ivy League schools, including Harvard.)

Now break it down even more, that leaves 25% non jewish white which is 12.5% white female, 12.5% white male, but that's not accurate either, as Harvards white student body in majority women. So let say 10% of the 2021 freshman class was a white male...and lol if you think 85% of that 10% is straight.

Im assuming they are hoping full blown AA gets it down to 5% total? No remember, the grads of Ivy league schools today, are our leaders across most sectors of society tomorrow....and white libs, apparently your kids arent included in that either.

The NBA is 0.1% Asians. God help me if we started demanding that as long as an Asian boy can dribble, we let him into the NBA.

Race should not be a factor, full stop. If the blacks can’t compete with white/Asians, the problem is deeper than letting them in, make them more competitive, take the problem at a root level.

Fkn racists.

Everyone is fixated in group identities, but jet li who gave up his social life to bust his ass off to go to Harvard is NOT going to Harvard because of his race, someone else is getting in because of their race. Jet li don’t give a fk that Jackie chan and a bunch of other Asians are already in, they ain’t doing chit for him, he is not them, he is not just an Asian, he is Jet li. He wants to be judged on his own merits, not on his Asianhood.

Nothing says white privilege like complaining that a few more white people will go to a Duke instead of Harvard

It blows my mind that anyone even cares about being called a white supremacist at this point.

Giving less qualified people special treatment due to race = racist. It's also rather patronizing to suggest certain non whites can't make it on their own merit.

That's definitely one step though we gotta rely on mainstream culture backlash as well, because billionaires are funding all this anti-white $hitlib bolshevism so it's hard to contend with. Not impossible but very hard. I'd say it definitely starts at the local level though. Having a tight knit community that just flips the bird to all this clown world garbage. There's tons of little towns out there like that where you'll get rightly ridiculed for trying to push left wing politics.

The real kicker is that AA has done more harm for blacks and minorities than it has good, but that's the thing with evil; they don't care about the outcome, they only care about the idea of it. Of course there is the obvious too, that it discriminates against gender and race, which is against federal law.

Next we need to get rid of the welfare state. That's done more damage than anything. It gave dems power by giving special treatment and money (materialism), and it corrupted society in to wanting socialism.

Well...we should care because this shyt (the thought process) is actually shaping/affecting policy and the like. This attitude is why lefties keep managing to push things further and have managed to infiltrate academia/the media/etc.

Except the reality is certain groups are playing on hard mode due to race. To ignore that and pretend its an even playing field is not acceptable. That's why these programs exist.

Same thing happens with sexism against men. A lot of those women who were hired just because they're a woman aren't taken seriously at their job because people realize they were a token hire.

The same idiots wore out calling everyone a Nazi pretty damn fast. They've worn out white supremacist pejorative so much they may as well be saying cheese sandwich or aluminum siding. Same people that call math racist and keeping schedules white supremacy. 😂😂
