[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask yourself this. Which students lack competence? The ones work perfect or near perfect academic stats? Or the ones with much weaker academic stats who are there to advance a social agenda?[/quote]
These rhetorical thought experiments are worthless if they're based on faulty premises. First, show us the reliable data that (a) identifies such incompetent students at selective schools, (b) shows that they are disproportionately constituted of whatever demographic you are inferring by "social agenda" (let's be real, we all know you mean "brown people"), (c) demonstrates that those same students had "much weaker" stats than their peers (and were admitted despite SCOTUS's SFFA decision), and, finally, (d) disaggregates the data for prior generations, distinct demographics, and other material variables. Then we'll consider your MAGA reasoning. [/quote]

lol. I like how I need to produce a double blind cross sectional three decade study to prove an obvious point - as opposed to just talk to my friend’s son at HYP about his first gen roommates who are drowning. [/quote]
I’m asking for some form of reliable evidence to support the foundational premises of your theory. You provided a friend-of-a-friend anecdote. Why don’t you tell me your thoughts on global warming and the efficacy of vaccines next? I’m sure the YouTubes you’ve watched have made you an expert. [/quote]
