You mean like how Biden hijacked the supreme court case and filed the official president position as discrimination against asians is A-OK? Nobody needs to "hijack" anything to have a lot of people not want their own kids discriminated against to favor URMs[/quote]

Real people (arguing both sides) aren't usually so nasty to one another, even on anonymous forums.[/quote]

Hard disagree on that. Any hot button issue - race, abortion, religion, etc. brings out very strong opinions and nasty responses. You just think asians shouldn't be so mad. If this was a thread about black kids being discriminated against everyone would be like, "amen, the anger is justified!"[/quote]

I think nobody should be so mad to file a lawsuit about discrimination for "not getting into a highly selective school that rejects 95% of it's applicants" Common sense tells one that means many highly qualified applicants will get rejected, but there are literally hundreds of excellent schools, and really 20-40 "ranked just below that if ranking really matters to you" that your kid will get into if they only demonstrate interest and put it on their application list.  The entitlement is astounding.[/quote]
