Civil Rights Act of 1964. Not sure how Harvard is funded. But to pretend that a color blind Constitution and the Civil Rights Act of 1964 aren't well established principles of our justice system is inane. Both the education and employment provisions of the Civil Rights Act specifically bar the use of disparate impact to provide quotas.hardhat said:HHusky said:

How old are you? You always shift to straw man tactics, like a little child. Your 'topic' is that 'democrats' are against it. Yet today we've seen a bunch of crying, shrieking nonsense from the leaders of that party. You may be against it, and that's great. But everyone from Obama to shitheads like Inslee that actually represent the democrats are saying something else.HHusky said:

"straw man" has an actual meaning apart from just being things that confuse you
I said I am cynical about the hand wringing; it may keep some Dem votes and it probably doesn't lose many Dem votes when the alternative is a right wing Republican

Democrats want to end all merit based systems and replace them with arbitrary nonsense like equity and social justice. I'm not sure if they'll succeed completely, but a lot of damage has been done to public education and higher education. But as long as there's a 'right wing republican' bogeyman, that keeps the base placated.HHusky said:

I've already produced the polling that says you're wrong in this very thread. A large majority of Democrats oppose race-based admissions. In the past few years, voters in WA and CAL both passed laws intended to end them as well--and by large margins.hardhat said:
