Supreme Court - No more Affirmative action in colleges

[robcguns]

Supreme Court just ruled no more. Hahahaha. Just made my fucking day. Put into place in 2003 No more considering race for admissions.

[robcguns]

Residue get in here and show your disdain for the Supreme Court.

[SOMEPARTS]

I would say things are about to get weird if they are actually not allowing this. This is admitting that trying to force equal outcomes is not working. Wonder if the collapsed I-95 bridge engineers were honorary recipients of a degree?

didnt realize you were so pro asian

[robcguns]

I have no problem at all with Asians. They are smart people who keep to themselves.

[robcguns]

2003 or 2023?

Put in place in 2003 taken out of place 2023.

[robcguns]

Now just need to take it out of place in the business world and everything is even.

It’s called being pro-performance. That they happen to be Asian is irrelevant.

LOL at calling racial quotas that conveniently exclude certain races as “Progress.”

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, a liberal and African-American, in a dissent called the ruling "truly a tragedy for us all."

Her fellow liberal, Justice Sonia Sotomayor, in a sharp dissent, said, "Today, this Court stands in the way and rolls back decades of precedent and momentous progress."

it's not just racial quotas though, the group that have benefited most from affirmative action has been white women 

[Thin Lizzy]

At this point colleges are majority women. Why would you need quotas for them?

[Megalodon]

Someone wants people to say

 "oh no, what have we done, Asians will no longer be discriminated against".

and


"oh no, White women will no longer get preferential treatment" (and hoping you're not smart enough to understand that it's preferential treatment over White men)

Top colleges will still pick who they want admitted.

Doesn't matter in this day and age of social media.   People will still keep tabs on admissions and if any number is off, they will fuck up the place.  Honestly, the ruling makes things even worse

I just think it should be fair. If the white guy or black guy or Asian guy deserves it they should get it. It should not be gotten not deserved is all I care about. If you deserve it you should get it no matter what your color.

Is Affirmative Action at McDonalds and Walmart also cancelled?

[GymnJuice]

The colleges will become more creative in getting in who they do want and keeping out who they don't want.

The thing that irrefutably makes everything worse is the presence of Chocolate Faces, anywhere.

[bhank]

Affirmative action was just legal discrimination against white men

[robcguns]

Affirmative action was just legal discrimination against white men

Pretty fucking much.

Never heard it said like that, that is good.

Exactly

Affirmative action screwed whites and Asians the most, ironically

The real benefit was towards blacks and Hispanics

The case of Harvard admissions and asians a few years ago rings a bell
