34% Of White College Applicants Lie About Their Race

This is as close to conclusive proof as we get in this vale of tears. Despite progressives' characteristic refusal to believe the obvious, being nonwhite/nonAsian is an advantage in college admissions and everybody knows it.

It helps even more if you're trying to snag a teaching gig. Members of the relevant demographic groups go to the front of the line.

Of course progressives deny all this. Despite the fact that everyone is tripping all over themselves to get "diversity hires," they still pretend to believe that e.g. blacks are at a disadvantage.

But that's the central vice of the PC left, as I may have mentioned: the subordination of truth to dogma.

I mean, look, hiring preferences may be the right thing to do. I don't know. But at least be honest about it, fer chrissake.
