[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s not a lot of them so let’s stereotype and discriminate against them. Doesn’t seem like a great justification.[/quote]

Doesn't sound like anyone is stereotyping or discriminating against anyone. Simply stating that they're a small group seems like a fair observation. My biggest gripe is that they're promoting a system that is easily gamed and favors those with privilege and resources.  Maybe people are always going to insist on a system that gives them an unfair advantage over others and this will wind up a random lottery since people couldn't find a reasonable solution.[/quote]

You talk about fairness, but you've never lived the injustice of being a gifted kid who's told they should be happy in gen ed.
You talk about unfair advantages yet you support a system where the rules were changed to actively exclude Asian students based on their race.
You complain about privilege and resources yet you deny the possibility that metrics which can't easily be gamed - like AMC performance - should factor in.
You openly promote bigotry (as confirmed in court) yet you gripe about people showing their "true colors".
You allude to social justice, yet you lean on the unjust social engineering trope that the people with legitimate concerns only represent a "small group".

What's wrong with you?[/quote]

This may be the most entitled post I’ve ever read on DCUM. And that’s a VERY high bar. Shame on you.[/quote]

Ya they seem unhinged even hysterical [/quote]
