The most unjust thing about this is that racists snear at people at all for any reason. And they will find any reason to justify their sneers. That's one of the main problems with racists, they hide under all sorts of veils.


and back to the thread, this isn't a "new" take on AA, it's an old and tired argument. And now you see a lot of peope coming out of the woodwork to throw their collective, white weight behind it.

your opening salvo smacked of the validity of a model minority's opinion.
