So the fact that I think legacies are worse than affirmative action for disadvantaged groups makes ME an asshole? Are you pro-money or pro-racism or both? You aren't a legacy brat by any chance, are you?

And just what is it that you think I'm being deliberately obtuse about? Please do specify.

Ever heard the one about walking in another man's shoes? Those who suffer extreme chronic pain often have to make serious quality of life decisions. Also, drunken/high posts are accepted here. Sometimes encouraged.

Well, for a start, I was referring to Tucker. But if you want the mantle, by all means.

Is it too late to send him back? And maybe take Pierce Morgan with him?

Very different from public school teaching. The sh¡t definitely floats. Most administrators (some notable exceptions) are failed teachers, mainly those who started teaching, realized they hated it, and decided they would at least make more money in admin. Most are way beyond their Peter Principle sell-by date.

Why am I not surprised that Tucker Carlson has no idea what "equity" is?

It would be better without. Distracts. (I am apparently not as annoyed about it as you are though. :)

These assholes swim in white privilege the way fish swim in water, totally oblivious to its existence until it starts being taken away. It's just the way things oughta be!

Everything, and I mean everything to these people is a zero sum game. If Black people have some rights, then I (meaning they) will have some number of rights fewer because they are using up all the rights. Kind of like Tucker Carlson and his ilk sucking up all the oxygen in whatever room they happen to be in at the moment.

"For three months, we've been trying to guess — what is this 'equity' ...?

I'm imagining these people around a table taking guesses.

"Gummy Bears!"

"No."

"Balloons!"

"No."

"Puppies!"

"No. C'mon you guys. You're just saying things you want."

"Equality."

"Not even close."

Tucker looks like he has spent too much time praying at the shrine of Our Wing Nut Lady of the Perpetual Scowl. Speaking of which, where is Peggy Noonan?
