This is a pretty big dinner of a lot of the push for diversity over merit. You think these schools are woke? This is where a lot of it comes from

The meritocracy crowd wants us to turn into china.

So it’s okay to turn into Europe but not China?

I don’t want either. I don’t want a Gaokao or an a levels system in the US. If you do, that’s…interesting, but I don’t think there’s a massive push to make high school much much harder than it currently is.

There's only one segment who wants this and they actually come from those systems.... so the question is why.

They don’t like having to actually think.

Hmmm interesting self-reflection from you …

I get that you exist in a cloud of gotcha arguments, but there’s no appeal to the gaokao. Your kids probably study enough, now imagine everything they done making them behind and they’d need to restart high school at 4 times the pace, go to Saturday school, and stay till 10 pm in order to catch up with their competition

All these are just smear campaigns against those talented kids, trying to reduce them into someone who can only put in hours, as if effort without ability explains everything. as if grinding alone could produce that level of excellence. It’s projection, and a bitter attempt to drag others down to justify their own mediocrity. You can’t match the results, so you attack the method.

I can't match the result? No, I can't, because I chose Harvard over having the goal of Peking University. The systems in East Asia are toxic and awfully demanding for children.

Again, you’re equating merit based system with Chinese system, part of your smear campaign. You don’t sound too smart.

Then...talk about a merit based system that wouldn't include a dramatic resorting of our education process and intense climb in academics.

Intense climb? Really? Is it possible they’re just smarter and have better intellectual talent?

what merit system do you want? What practical changes do you want to see? Not everything needs to be a flex about your intelligence.

Something not based on one’s identity to start with. How about that?

Which would include...? I'm asking for changes in processes, not your personal propaganda.

Go back to search this thread to find out the specifics. I sssume you’re at least capable of doing that which doesn’t involve much intelligence.

Yeah, your adjectives list isn't helpful. People want to know changes to their children's education and what to prioritize. Not that you're grumpy black people got into college.

No you don’t want to know anything. You just wanted the status quo’s which isn’t happening. Too bad. Cry me a river.

? Make a point, Jesus.

You’re too dumb to see the point. It’s like dumb students keeep asking teachers to explain a simple concept again and again. Now I get your hatred towards meritocracy.

Agreed. There's research to support the better outcomes for all students who learn in diverse peer groups (and for businesses that hire diverse teams to do problem solving) so this is not really a result that should be cheered on without nuance.

I do appreciate that some policies were executed with a too heavy hand but opponents of any diversity goals or programs should realize their non-diverse students also do benefit from going to school with non-homogeneous students. My DS has said he would not want to attend a college or school that's mostly was all white or all male (which is what he himself is). He wants diversity for himself and supports all reasonable diversity programs aimed at increasing it.

+1, a fair balanced approach. It'd be nice to see less emphasis on race, but also see gains in campus public outreach and discourse across political spectrums.

The issue is that merit and SES go hand in hand. Which is why it makes sense to make an effort to include first gen college students and students from lower SES, regardless of race.

Your point has been made. You don't have anything to say, but you hate black people. We get it, but that isn't exactly an indictment of anything but your personal racism. Now, are you ready to talk about what a meritocratic system looks like or will you cower again with some other nonsensical personal insult that won't carry the conversation. You've run away every time I've basically asked you to explain your perspective.

No we should just commit to highest intellect. Poor people can go to other schools if they aren't smart. We should be about intellect first.

Demanding meritocracy isn’t wishing people of color fail. It actually has nothing to with the skin color. I doubt you’re a conservative and I don’t really care. You can claim whoever you’re

Wow this has fallen off its hinges. This has really little effect on colleges and universities.

You demand meritocracy, but get sensitive when someone asks you the specifics of what that entails in a practical matter. I'm sorry you can't accept that not everyone is like you, but I've been a republican likely longer than you've been alive.

Yeah, your adjectives list isn't helpful. People want to know changes to their children's education and what to prioritize. Not that you're grumpy black people got into college.

No you don’t want to know anything. You just wanted the status quo’s which isn’t happening. Too bad. Cry me a river.

? Make a point, Jesus.

You’re too dumb to see the point. It’s like dumb students keeep asking teachers to explain a simple concept again and again. Now I get your hatred towards meritocracy.

Your point has been made. You don't have anything to say, but you hate black people. We get it, but that isn't exactly an indictment of anything but your personal racism. Now, are you ready to talk about what a meritocratic system looks like or will you cower again with some other nonsensical personal insult that won't carry the conversation. You've run away every time I've basically asked you to explain your perspective.

Haha so what they say about your political ideology is true. To you people, everything is identity and you accuse people racist after losing an argument.

You haven't really made any claims other than the fact that you hate diversity, so not an unreasonable take that you may just be racist.

You can definitely ask for that when you’ve lost the argument.

What argument? I just don't think there's anything productive that's come out of this.
