‘This Is Not A Normal Court’ – Biden Slams Color-Blind SCOTUS’ Decision To End Affirmative Action; Affirmative Action Is Another Nonsense Leftist Position We’ve Been Conditioned To Take Seriously

‘This Is Not A Normal Court’ – Biden Slams Color-Blind SCOTUS’ Decision To End Affirmative Action:

It didn’t take long for The White House to come out swinging against the racists on the Supreme Court who dared to disallow race-based decision-making on college admissions.

“The court has effectively ended affirmative action in college admissions,” the president raged “and I strongly, strongly disagree with the court’s decision.”

Biden added that equal opportunity “is not everywhere across this country.”

College and universities “should not abandon their commitment to ensure student bodies of diverse backgrounds and experience,” he adds – seemingly telling them to ignore SCOTUS’ ruling. As Charlie Kirk noted, he appears to be openly calling on universities to defy the ruling by lumping race into the new catch-all term: “adversity”.

As Noah Rothman noted, “Did President just make make institutionalized racial discrimination against Asian-Americans a campaign platform?”

So that includes the adversity faced by poor white kids, right? Right?

“The truth is,” Biden repeats three times, “we all know it — discrimination still exists in America.”

Indeed – and SCOTUS just ruled against that discrimination being used against smart white kids wanting to get into the Ivy League.

Of course, the DoJ stepped in with AG Garland saying that he “will use legal tools to promote student diversity.”

He concluded that “we need to remember diversity is our strength.”

And then as he was leaving, a reporter shouted out “is this a rogue court?” to which he replied pensively, “this is not normal.” —>READ MORE HERE

Affirmative Action Is Another Nonsense Leftist Position We’ve Been Conditioned To Take Seriously:

Ketanji Brown Jackson’s dissent is an extension of all the other nonsensical, offensive arguments made by the left.

It’s often incredibly surreal to remember that concepts and arguments from the left are at all taken seriously in this country. Reading Justice Ketanji “Black Girl Magic” Brown Jackson’s dissenting opinion in the college race-based admissions case is truly one of those times.

The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled against institutions of higher education using race as a factor in the admissions process, which prestigious ones like Harvard have been doing for years in order to artificially boost black and Hispanic enrollment, at the expense of white and Asian applicants.

In essence, the court determined that it violates the 14th Amendment for colleges and universities to prefer some races over others, a concept traditionally known as racism. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote in the majority opinion, “Eliminating racial discrimination means eliminating all of it.”

And then there’s Jackson, who professed to believe in the opposite. “Our country has never been colorblind,” she said in her dissent. She said that in reality, because race-based admissions “help to address” past discrimination against blacks, they are actually “to the benefit of us all.”

Hear that, Asian applicants? Losing a spot at Harvard to someone of lower academic achievement is actually to your benefit! You should be saying thank you.

Jackson then chronicled every way in which blacks are at a disadvantage — including in fictional ways — asserting that the only way to remedy the matter was to then compensate black Americans with preferential treatment. “The only way out of this morass—for all of us—is to stare at racial disparity unblinkingly,” she wrote, “and then do what evidence and experts tell us is required to level the playing field and march forward together, collectively striving to achieve true equality for all Americans.” —>READ MORE HERE
