West Point Sued After Director of Admissions Brags About What Happens to White Applicants
Western journal ^

Posted on 09/22/2023 7:54:11 PM PDT by aquila48

When Ibram X. Kendi’s preposterous thesis that “the only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination” becomes mainstream practice, you know things are upside down.

Kendi is the author of the poorly reasoned 2019 leftist propaganda book, “How to Be an Antiracist,” which became not only a bestseller, but a clarion call for progressives.

In a speech at the Aspen Ideas Festival, Kendi put his anti-reasoning skills on display, according to the New York Post. “When I see racial disparities, I see racism,” Kendi said. If that isn’t a blanket generalization, the logical fallacy of that name has no meaning.

And yet Kendi’s obtuse theories have burrowed deep into some of America’s most beloved institutions like a fever-carrying tick in a bloodhound’s ear.

The United States Military Academy in West Point, New York — which has graduated the likes of Ulysses S. Grant, Douglas MacArthur and Dwight D. Eisenhower — is one such institution. And it’s being called out for it.

On Tuesday, lawyers representing the Students for Fair Admissions sued West Point for alleged race and ethnicity discrimination in admissions decisions, according to Politico. SFFA is the anti-affirmative action group that tanked race-conscious admissions practices at Harvard in a Supreme Court decision.

But the decision that nixed racial admissions policies at Harvard and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill determined that because no military academy was party to the suit, the opinion did not include admissions issues at these schools “in light of the potentially distinct interests that military academies may present,” according to Politico.

SFFA didn’t agree with the justices’ logic and argued there is “no justification for using race-based admissions” and, since the practice is now illegal at non-military universities, West Point “is not exempt from the Constitution.”

Our military has been thoroughly undermined by the Satanic left.

Quit sending your kids into the military. The globalist need good soldiers. Let the molesters provide them. Of course they cannot.

can it get back to what it was? I don’t think it could ever fully- but it can get much closer to what it was if the right people are in power- question is though- will Americans wake up and see what demon Driven liberals are doing to this country and say enough is enough and switch parties and hand the next republican contender a resounding win so massive that the left can’t cheat their way into office again?? I dunno- i hope so

The administration at West Point needs to be court-martialed.

But then the people who have that responsibility may be those who need to be court-martialed themselves.

Why would any American want to serve in the GloboHomo armed forces?

It would a require a thorough cleansing. Virtually everyone in the military above the rank of Captain or Major (Army/Marines/Air Force) or LT or LCDR (Navy) is likely compromised and would have to be removed. Anything pushing the Woke/CRT/DIE agenda would have to be summarily destroyed.

It might require having to utilize state National Guards to fill in the gap for a period. Very, very dangerous times for us. Red China could have a field day with us at present. They don’t put up with crap undermining their military, and they’ve helped to undermine ours.

That West Point would be practicing this is simply disgraceful. Yes sue them. Sue the AFA and the USNA too if necessary.

It’s high time someone started picking the fever-carrying ticks of Critical Race Theory, antiracism and all the other mumbo jumbo out of the necks of our institutions. The proponents of such nonsense are either cultural Marxists or useful idiots for the radical left.

Let this be the start then.

I’m trying to figure out what kind of white person with an IQ over 80 even WANTS to get into West Point these days.
