Post Affirmative Action, an admissions program designed for descendants of American slavery?

Nikole Hannah-Jones, the creator of the fraudulent 1619 project, just came up with an idea that is...not the worst thing I've heard on twitter.

She followed up with these:



Fair points. No one was talking about diversity when these programs started, and can we finally agree that white women shouldn't be part of these programs?


I don't know if she's right that the Supreme Court gets rid of Affirmative Action, but if it does, she's at least thinking ahead.

 

A better case can be made for lineage than for race. Doing it by race is blatantly racist. It's amazing people don't see that.

 

so if a white person has the genes, they and all their decedents qualify?

which twin qualifies?



what if the decedent has both slave and slave owner genes, do they still qualify? as sadly, many slave owners raped their slaves?

 

Well the argument "affirmative action is racist" is an old one and the establishment and the left just absolutely don't care; particularly as they've moved to a Kendi-esque racial spoils system.

 

Good question. Since you're on the left, how would you answer? Affirmative Action programs are your baby.

 

I do not believe in affirmative action, even when it comes to the electoral college, it increases the odds of unqualified people getting the job, as we saw in 2016

 

OK you lost me on your electoral college=affirmative action comparison. Is that what this post of yours was about?



The electoral college?

 

the electoral college is affirmative action for the smaller States

people should be treated equal, regardless of race, gender or religion

 

OK so how does that apply to your question?

 

did you answer the questions?

you said they were good questions..... I agree

 

Now we're repeating ourselves.

 

I agree, they were good questions, so you have an answer, I think I made mine clear

people should be treated equal, regardless of race, gender or religion

 

No, you weren't clear at all! You started talking about the electoral college!

 

That doesn't mean we shouldn't care. It remains racist to discriminate based on race. It isn't racist to discriminate based on family line legacy. It may or may not be morally wrong, but it isn't racist.

 

It's certainly a better argument than arguing that Asians, White Women, and African immigrants should eligible for Affirmative Action because of "diversity."

 

you asked about affirmative action, the electoral college is affirmative action for the smaller States

 

Given your posting history, that's actually the perfect reply.

 

not sure what your trying to say there, but ok

 

These babies obviously have different fathers. Mom must have been very busy that day! The baby on the left qualifies.

 

nope, they have the same mother and father.... just there was an interracial relationship in their ancestors bloodline

 

I would believe they have the same father only if I could see their DNA reports with my own 2 eyes.
The baby on the right doesn't look biracial at all. Most biracial children have a few African traits---this baby has none.

 

I am sure they get that a lot
