So Affirmative Action is basically dead for college admissions, further dismantling Civil Rights era legislation.

Way to go, SCOTUS. /s

    This would be a good point if it weren’t for all of the systemic racism that tilts the scales towards white people from before the birth of the country into the present day.

    Slavery, Jim Crow, chain gangs, loitering laws, segregation, redlining, political violence, lynching, the war on drugs, the school to prison pipeline, school districts funded by local property taxes, longer criminal sentences for black people, school voucher programs, outlawing the teaching of black history.

      No one is denying that these things did happen, but the problem here is that your “solution” for systemic racism, is to apply systemic racism to other races in benefit of minorities, now if you want to argue “oh but we must do so because every bad thing that happened to these minorities!” then you aren’t actually fighting to end systemic racism, what you actually want is to have that power for yourselves, you want to be able to discriminate and suffer no consequences for this, in other words, this is pretty much revenge for what happened back then.

      Two wrongs don’t make a right, if you support committing injustice just to compensate the victims of previous injustices, you’re no different than the original criminal.

      You people are hypocrites

        As a white, I think whites should be ground into bread. They should be shot into space as bread where they can expand to fit the container they’re placed in while in microgravity. This isn’t hypocrisy, it’s cosmic baking. Get in the rocket with me, brother.

          Yeah, i don’t think you’re well in the head if you actually believe this… so i’m going to say no.

            You would rob yourself of the glory of living as interstellar bread? Being baked to a golden brown by cosmic radiation while aimlessly shooting across the void infinite?

            Join me, our bodies no longer bounded by our form. We expand, yeast eating sugar, producing alcohol and carbon dioxide. We intermingle, no longer you, no longer me. Just intimately bread, endlessly bread.
