Well I technically said “if they said whites only”, while it could be clothed in “you get -30 points out of 100” with the bar being 65 or something.
Except for the fact that affirmative action isn’t all that nice and dandy either. Like, quotas are straight up bullshit and often are banned in countries in Europe. The only affirmative action that makes sense for the community, is when they have a skill that is in demand in the market. Like, reading wiki, in Finland, they let Swedish speaking people have worse grades to advance in legal and medical, because the country has a need of Swedish speaking lawyers and doctors.
I was referring to any amount of racism from 0-100. I’d just consider them all pieces of shit at 100 and only a little misled towards the other end.
I guess I feel like I’m willing to let peeps experiment a bit with their own shit so we can see the outcome. When what you’re doing leads to more kids failing, that’s obviously a bad policy.
I mostly take issue with the ideology that leads us to use AA that harms pretty much everyone, including the people it’s designed to help.
The thing is - there are usually people who have done better. I don’t mean “fail everyone, don’t fill the seats”. The entry bar gets naturally lowered when nobody can join. What I am saying, is that if there are 30 candidates for a spot, and a person gets in because of their race or background, and someone who scored higher gets rejected, then that’s plain wrong.
In state funded schools I agree. Oh. That’s the context of this post and I should have been more clear on that. For private institutions I don’t think it matters much.
Well, yeah, public schools. They should be at a level where private schooling isn’t required that much.
