Nah, it is the East Asian way to adapt to nerfing by getting better. It further widens the perceived skill gap between a model minority and an "oppressed" minority.

No shit, this divide was large enough to the point where it wasn't difficult to be the standout student even five years ago. I'm not smart or skilled by any measure but the rate that peers were learning at was suffocating. The standard is rock bottom and tunneling underground. Eventually they'll hit mantle and burn themselves badly for it.

These days, all it takes to be considered a fantastic student/pupil is an avid interest in self-directed learning and practice. This used to be the bare minimum standard in decades past and now it's considered exemplary. I felt frustrated at how low the standard was, because I never felt like I've earned anything worthwhile from higher education.

We should only take into account poverty. Clearly someone who scores well while poor is probably a better student than someone born with two highly educated parents.

Oh fuck no. The affirmative action ban is the only thing that makes this ducked up state worth anything. I acknowledge that White people are often sluggish and slow employees, and they make mistakes, and they behave like middle easterners in fiercely guarding tools and tricks of the trade leading to stagnation, but all this will lead to is even worse retardation. When I was one of a few men hired in a large and mostly women's-only office (no they were all old only two were around my age and remotely cute, go die in a fire, I no longer work there anyway), that inspired additional hirings prioritizing men (yes that is illegal) which had the unanticipated consequence of filling the department with a lazy clique of white Jehovah's Witnesses. You do not know retardation until everyone around you sometimes seems to be JV. They didn't last. Well. You get my point. California, in Her Divine Sophic Wisdom, did see fit to ban hirings on the basis of race sex creed etc as the lesser of two evils. You see, a lazy white person pisses everyone off, so everyone knows exactly who they are and constantly calls them out on it. A lazy nigger? Oh snap!

How would you avoid the FLDS poverty scam?

Polygs are such a minute part of the population, I don’t think it really matters.

Extend the fake poverty scam into other areas and FLDS won't be the only ones exploiting it.

>ducked up
go back

Hmmm, a lot of valid point me thinks.

californians are the worst people in the USA by far. the only ones that come close are portland/seattle

LOL there is a canceling in progress. My neighbors are arguing over prop 16. Woke women against a Asian woman.
