    Funny how we addressed the tool that helped black kids first, rather than the one that hurt them.

    Maybe it’s because this is being pushed by bad people, that you seem to agree with under some fantasy of “100% merit based” reality.

    Systemic biases exist, AA compensated for them banking AA is basically pretending this nation isn’t racist AF.

        Our entire society is plain wrong, doing things to address those injustices is good actually.

        P.s you can’t be “racist” against white people, in a white supremacists nation.

            It’s very difficult. Discriminating against white people in a fundamentally white supremacist society (which the US is) is a bit like farting in a hurricane. I mean… do you see footage of black cops casually murdering white people at least once every week?
