You have no source for this and seem to have an anti-Duke bias based on your second statement. Why should we believe what you said?
- akhilcacharya 8y agoI have more of an anti-elite bias than an anti-Duke bias. I’d rather have a society that listens to the grievances of everyone than one that focuses exclusively on the top 1% at a very specific age.
- bluedevil2k 8y agoYou do realize that not everyone that attends Duke is an elite, right? Some of my best friends were as middle class as you can get and were super smart kids who earned their way in. Your view on society is rather jaded as well, probably too influenced by the media and their far-left/far-right biases. In the US, society is definitely somewhere in the middle of "everyone" and "the 1%".
- akhilcacharya 8y agoAs someone that didn’t get in, you’re still elite if you are “super smart”.
