So Affirmative Action is basically dead for college admissions, further dismantling Civil Rights era legislation.

Way to go, SCOTUS. /s

    Correct.

    But you can’t fix inequality by treating everyone equally.

    The people who are already at an advantage will just continue to grow that advantage, while the people at a disadvantage will fall farther and farther behind.

    That’s why, despite being found repeatedly to be a form of racial discrimination, affirmative action was previously found to meet the standard of Strict Scrutiny on dozens of occasions. The Supreme Court backtracked on decades of rulings today.

    You only don’t like context because it, like so many things, is inconvenient to your ideology. Cant’ have things like facts and nuance, no sir.
