How?
How is giving favor and penalizing because of color of your skin not racist
Exactly. That's the reasons we need the AA.
Yawn, this is a tired argument. AA is obviously racist in that it uses race as a consideration for admissions but the Supreme Court has already ruled as follows: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grutter_v._Bollinger The Court's majority ruling, authored by Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, held that the United States Constitution "does not prohibit the law school's narrowly tailored use of race in admissions decisions to further a compelling interest in obtaining the educational benefits that flow from a diverse student body." The Court held that the law school's interest in obtaining a "critical mass" of minority students was indeed a "tailored use". O'Connor noted that sometime in the future, perhaps twenty-five years hence, racial affirmative action would no longer be necessary in order to promote diversity.
Yet after 25 years later no improvements would be seen in the cause that’s supposed to be helped with AA.
This was written in 2003. Can you do math? 😂
If you're actually willing to learn, AA at its core is a band-aid solution that uses race as a heuristic to fight societal racism.
NOOOOOOOO
Leftists think that if they get enough women and browns they will have power over those mean white males. Most immigrants however turn right wing and oppose immigration, so it is self defeating. Also leftists don't really know what they are trying to win, just like their planks "save the whales, stop global warming, save the rainforest." When it comes down to it they don't give a fuck about those things in real life. They want control of money, whether corporate budgets or government spending.
In grand scheme of things, it is just about votes. It's just pandering shit, needless to say more.
Most immigrants turn right wing - where did you get this fact from?
Damn, by looking at these results people on blind are R E T A R D E D and don't understand AA
Minorities have been historically and institutionally discriminated so much that we need a racist policy to help them
Very racist against asians. A minority finally gets an advantage (if hard work is even considered an advantage) and the other races have to bring them down a peg
Asians are already overrepresented in tech and colleges. Racial diversity is more important than Asian Monopoly
What is wrong in tech industry representing tech graduates. What is wrong with Asian monopoly. Do you have a problem with African American monopoly in NBA or R&B? The unemployment in tech is at 1.3%. Everyone has a job. So what is the AA for? It’s just virtue signaling points to brag look how many minorities we employ. It’s pandering and sickening
Affirmative action is diluted. Never benefited those who it was "supposed to help". The term "minority" should be done away with. Stop it with the bullsh**.
Yup, it’s supposed to improve the underrepresented minorities yet mostly they are getting further underrepresented.

Question about women in their 30’s?
But OP, it's "benevolent racism." /s
Very innovative, let me figure out where else I can insert this benevolent word with same desperation. Got it! Benevolent sexism = orga**
You jest, but that's an actual thing. Ironically it's used to describe "helpful" treatment that seem positive on the surface but are actually quite damaging in practice. Now where else would that apply 🤔
