Just can’t go to Salon.
My momma always said, ‘You dance with the devil. The devil don’t change. The devil changes you.’
I’ll stay here for analysis, thank you.

Yeah, it’s bad.

Out of line and way left even for Salon.

So now we get to have mediocre blacks and Hispanics coasting on their racial privilege instead?

Exhibits “A” and “B”: The current POTUS AND FLOTUS. Although “mediocre” would be a very generous description of their intellect and talents.

Its clear - the intellectual left hates white people and what they believe “whiteness” stands for.

So to not consider race at all is now racist? Liberal insanity.

A couple days ago I was behind some dweeb with a “Got privilege?” bumper sticker on his car.

Amanda Marcotte is God-hating, self-hating stain upon humanity.

Little Ms. Marcotte has been drinking the koolaid so much, her skin is deep pink and she pees it.

The progressives are so entirely ignorant of so very much, it is astounding. And frightening.

“A massive blow to mediocre white people coasting on their racial privilege”

We’ll just coast on our record of inventing and building virtually every significant piece of technology for the last 600 years. You can coast on your record of living off our scraps and begging for handouts. PS- Even the “mediocre” white people have SAT scores 200-300 points higher than yours.

Black man lives on white man’s “privilege”. Blacks cannot live without white man’s money.

Well, it’s from bottom feeder Amanda Marcotte, no surprise there.

The counter-move to this ruling is for all white people to claim some other ethnicity in every case where it would provide some benefit.

Let them prove you are not whatever ethnicity you care to claim to be.

Can do the same with gender if it comes to that.

If everyone is officially black (even if for this purpose only)... well, that makes it impossible to enact affirmative action programs, doesn’t it?

The fun part comes when they try to put together a test to sort out who is legally of which ethnicity - an impossible feat, that, if attempted, will wholly destroy the racial spoils system.

What I don't understand is since UT-Austin is a state school, couldn't the Texas legislature just step in and bar their Affirmative Action policy? And if so, why haven't they already done so?

If an article was published with a similar headline denigrating black or Hispanic ethnicity, Salon would go nuclear over it.

So, why do they have a double standard? Why do they allow such attacks against Caucasians?

Affirmative action has been used in college admissions for at least the past 40 years. That's two full generations. Why is it still necessary?

Yes, you can even use the left's language against them, "Yeah I may be a white male, but I identify as a Black Female Lesbian." The left has been pushing this view that everyone else has to respect what you "identify" as rather than what you really are, so no good leftist is ever going to argue with you, you've boxed them into their own PC trap. Of course the other path is the Elizabeth Warren one, were you get a DNA test and discover that you 1% Indian or Black or something, then you claim affirmative action benefits because of that.
