- hnaccy 8y agoI took from your post that affirmative action is defensible because it helps those who had a harder time due to racism or sexism. But you admit asians who affirmative actions hurts the most face more racism than whites. Did I misunderstand?
- ssfrr 8y agoI think deciding how best to counteract systematic bias at earlier stages of the pipeline is difficult, and I don't think we should accept widespread collateral damage. That said, I don't think we should use that as an excuse to blow up the whole idea and ignore the bias (I'm not saying that's what you're advocating, just expanding my point).
