Thread: Supreme Court to Decide if Schools Should Actually Base Admissions on Merit

  1. #191
    Believing you deserve something you earned is not a feeling of entitlement. By definition entitlement implies that it wasn't earned. Without having access to more of the chick's information in this particular case, it's hard to know which side of the line she falls on. Crying about affirmative action when you had no business getting one of the spots is just as bad (but no worse) than affirmative action giving the spot to someone who had no business getting it. I took Six's post to be speaking in general, not about this specific case.

    And your post is still bullshit.

  2. Because I'm of latino descent? You make me sick. That Nick lets an obvious racist like you post on this site is a travesty.

    How the fuck does your family tree affect the fact that this post is bullshit:

    How do you propose to give everyone a good family? You've said this several times, but I don't know you to be that much of a naive ideallist, so I really have to call bullshit on this.

    I don't have to disprove your racism. That's your job.

    That's a whole different thread, largely unrelated to education. This is just one symptom of underlying problems that would admittedly be a bitch to fix, unless you simply prioritize kids above all else and go from there.

  9. You wouldn't really want to live in a society that parented your kids for you anyway. Or told people who could and couldn't reproduce.

    ... which is exactly the situation here. Fisher is in the top 12%. Top 10% are guaranteed admission. This case is some bullshit.
