It's funny watching the people who make everything about race crying that colleges can no longer lazily stereotype based on race.
Although I suppose they realize it was never actually about diversity and, well, people get upset when you take their handouts away.
And colleges can still use diversity, just that the courts have said you can't use race because it's a poor proxy for diversity.
Student loan forgiveness out, which everyone should have expected.
Compelled speech out. Embarrassing the 3 dem justices disagreed.

hmmm....
I'd say that it is very possible that you've lost one, maybe two if I get really imaginative. But numerous?

Without googling, I can't remember if it was Harvard or Yale that heavily discriminated against the Asians. One of the biggest traits they held against them was "personality".

I didn’t realize dodge ball teachers were in that high demand.

He’s a government employee, so his claim is possible. The irony is that he’s on here preaching rugged individual nonsense while being employed by the state.
Looks like being progressive in France means you are slaughtered in the street by muslims.

Who knew there might be some risks with unrestricted immigration. And even inviting them in. Im sure the protests are mostly peaceful, though.

Do you have a passport?
I haven't followed the France case very closely, but it seems like yet another case of criminals resisting arrest and then cops making a fatal mistake in judgement. So, apparently, it's not just racist US cops that make these mistakes...
What I did not that was different, however, is France has arrested well over 1000 protestors. In the US, that number would be low double digits.
Typical guns drawn in your face, hit the gas, trigger pulled.
Peak Democrat:
When at a meeting a tenant advocate confronts NYC mayor Eric Adams about rent control apartments going up in price and she pointed a finger at him the first thing he says is that she is playing plantation owner at him and that she needed to address him with respect because he's the mayor.
What's interesting is that she is an older woman who fled the Nazi's in her youth. He, on the other hand, is the mayor of the biggest city in the US. And when he's being held accountable in public, the first thing he does is try to make it a racial issue.
Peak Democrat.

There's been a lot of problems building up in Marseille for many years and it's currently the big story maker with the rioting. France needs to address what it has done to both immigrants and where they ghetto them.
Also Peak Democrat:
Dems are now starting to call for the investigation of SCOTUS, including subpoena's, because of the affirmative action ruling. They are also making the claim that Alito was taking bribes.

But muh norms! SC is the best thing to happen under Trump. Some of the statements made by Jackson and Sotomayor in the last couple rulings show they are very dumb.

No offense… people like this are retards. No one isn’t going to Florida because of it. And when did we start pretending people only had guns that cared about laws? These people are so dumb.
Billy will be visiting Florida as well. Just like California they are both beautiful.
How the fuck do you cancel the hot dog eating contest? You don’t have a secondary location? New York is a bunch of cunts.
