I’m late to this party, but I HAD to respond to this. Standardized test, imo, are the most unfair way to judge someone’s ability to succeed that I have ever seen. I graded them for a while and it was horrible and demoralizing and I realized that I only scored as high as I did on all mine standardized test because I…

How many times has your manuscript about the oppression of white males in the 21st century been rejected?

lol the best part is you think you won this when you keep doing exactly what I was trying to get you to do

War on drugs that criminalized drugs with much harsher penalties based on the perception of who used them.

My goal was to make it clear you were here for the white-guy concern trolling and get you to say some really dumb shit and you delivered, it’s all good.

Yeah i too think the real problem driving Trump supporters is racism against white people.

Tell me more.

Yeah especially when racism is against white people, #allbeckysmatter

“I wasn’t focusing on the article”

Let me succinctly state what so many others are replying to you:

You are replying to a post about the Fisher v Texas SCOTUS case and you don’t know what AA means in this context?

And you think I’m the one with reading probelms? LOL

I think what you’re failing to see is that America as a whole is rife with systemic racism (I can provide many examples if you truly don’t know what I’m talking about) that negatively impacts the ability of minorities to accrue wealth. Once you accept that, then any system that is biased towards wealth is then of…

You don’t even have to have a specific question that’s biased. Wealthier families can afford to pay expensive private tutors and have their kids take the test multiple times so they can get a better score.

The thing is though is that there’s apparently a widespread acceptance of special consideration for legacies, exceptional athletes and students involved in extracurriculars that kind of flies in the face of the objectivity advocated when considering race or class. It has never been a purely meritocratic process and…

The problem with this approach is that none of the “objective” measurements are actually without bias.

GPA is a total scam. (I say this as someone who graduated with nearly a 4.7.) By changing the rules for how it is calculated, you can shift the results. You’ve got students being compared whose GPAs were calculated…

Well, she was mediocre compared to the other students that applied, against whom she was being judged. She wasn’t smart enough compared to the other students grades. She wasn’t talented enough compared to the other student’s talents. She was in the middle. Mediocre.

I’m not American, but my country uses exclusively “objective” standards to determine who gets to go to college. Most Chileans have a similar skin color so we don’t have that kind of social divide, but class and income are a big deal. Our standardized tests overwhelmingly benefit rich kids - because they go to private…

Only a Becky would leave a comment like this.

Surprisingly, people not part of a culture defining the meanings of things created by that culture in direct opposition to what they actually mean FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE ACTUAL CULTURE doesn’t mean shit.

Yes, the Official Online Slang Dictionary and Quora are where the real definitions of slang created by Black people can be found. How can I possibly argue with that? You...you win. I will hang my head in shame now that I have been properly educated about the real meanings of slang terms created by, well, my own…

Lol, no.

then all Abigail Fishers and Aden Fishers of the world believe minorities are taking away all their scholarships and financial aid....yet 72% of scholarships go to white students.
