Did you know that enrollment figures for minority students at UC Berkeley, UCLA, and UC San Diego went down after Prop 209 (the measure which did away with racial preferences but NOT Affirmative Action) passed in California, while the enrollment numbers for the Irvine, Santa Cruz, and Riverside Campuses SKYROCKETED!!!
Gee, how shocking, people making better decisions for themselves (the fact that they ended up at colleges which were far more appropriate for their level of preparation) than the government did. Who'da thunk it?
Question is, why was the government forcing minority students to attend the more prestigious UC Berkeley, UCLA, and UC San Diego when they clearly belonged at the lesser Irvine, Santa Cruz, and Riverside? Fucking minority dumbshits.
Anyway, according to published data, graduation rates have been steadily improving over the last 20 years throughout the UC system, with little impact of Prop 209 on that trend. Which SOME might say points to a flaw in my logic - that minorities are being mismatched to schools they'd don't have the brains to attend. And thus they're dropping out (The effect of Prop 209 on UC admissions and campus diversity).
If that were the case, then shouldn't minority attendance declining result in a higher graduation rate (given that they're the ones who were dropping out)? But that isn't what happened. Proof "mismatch" is racist bullshit? Perhaps.
Actually, yes. But it's racist bullshit disguised as good research. Which it isn't. But I'll be damned if that stops me from insisting that it is. Or from dishonestly bashing Progressives for "hurting" minorities by advocating for such programs (because they've been proven to be effective).
The truth is that I don't give a shit because I'm a racist. Not that being a racist is a bad thing. That's just what the Left calls you when you acknowledge the FACT that the White man's brain is superior compared to the brains of people of other races. That's just science. Sorry, but yes.
BTW, when I said Prop 209 did away with racial preferences but NOT Affirmative Action, I totally lied. In that the two terms are virtually synonymous. If you're doing away with "racial preferences" you're doing away with Affirmative Action. I mean, that is exactly why the initiative was opposed by affirmative action advocates, for crying out loud!
As for anyone who didn't realize I was talking out of my ass? They're total dumbshits. But, hey, if I just say Prop 209 didn't do away with Affirmative Action? Perhaps some dumbshits will be fooled. Including dumbshits such as myself.
