- whimsicalism 4y agoWhat a gross, tribalistic way of viewing the world. e: oh i see, just looked up the author
- car_analogy 4y agoDo you feel the same about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OCA-Asian_Pacific_American_Advocates https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OCA-Asian_Pacific_American_Adv... ?
- whimsicalism 4y agoI don't really know what that organization is. I can tell you that if you had written the same article but switched around the races, I would definitely have felt the same way.
- ceeplusplus 4y agoAre any of the statistics mentioned wrong? Are the facts uncovered by the Harvard lawsuit now wrongthink?
- whimsicalism 4y agoWrongthink? What are you talking about? I'm simply saying that seeing everything through the lens of race, as this article does. Here's a claim: > White people made American colleges immensely fashionable around the world, but now America is running out of white kids. Fact check: there have never been more white people in America in the history of the US.
- ceeplusplus 4y agoThe article makes it very clear what "running out of white kids" means in the context the author is writing it in. You're intentionally taking it out of context. > I'm simply saying that seeing everything through the lens of race It is a fact that prestigious private universities discriminate on the basis of race today.
