CA Dems Bringing Racial Preferences Back...Though They've Never Really Gone Anywhere

"Diversity" babble has always been a way for universities et al. to tell democracy to go f*ck itself. In CA in particular, when prop 209 passed, universities basically said "Oh yeah...well we don't have racial preferences. This is diversity. LALALALALA we can't hear any objections to this transparent, bullshit ploy..."

   I'm actually not even sure what repealing prop 209 will do that the diversity delusion (to use Mac Donald's phrase) hasn't already accomplished.

   I'm actually torn about affirmative action and some kind of racial preferences. It's a tough question that I don't see clearly. I do think that the state has an interest in taking the roughest edges off of racial differences in outcomes. 

   One thing I have no doubt of: "diversity" has corrupted the mind and soul of universities. They're like cults, with allegedly intelligent and independent-minded professors (lol...what  a myth...) speaking of "diversity" in hushed, reverential tones, doublethinking themselves into the pretense that the racial preferences that infect everything, even the content of the courses, aren't racial at all...  It's creepy as hell to see a bunch of professors sit around, passionately and almost religiously talking about how night is day. And they have nothing but contempt for the evil, racist conservatives who refuse to acknowledge the plain fact that night is day...

   Honestly, I absolutely prefer quotas to this cultish self-brainwashing of the academy. Quotas are honest. The "diversity" delusion rots the university from within.
