So don't slander the name of the anti-affirmative action movement with "Racism." It is not true.
I don't think I've ever typed with someone who is quite so eager to find non arguments with which to argue. If you check back through the post to which you responded, you will see I, very carefully, did not label the anti affirmative action movement as racist. If you wish to continue to assert I did, then we'll just have to quit arguing about this. It is, of course, not relevant to the thread anyway, something I tried to indicate by only offering the link.
I'll offer a quick summary of my view, then you can take your shot, once again, if you wish, but I'm heading on to other topics.
What you are calling the anti affirmative action movement is, in my view, a coalition, exactly as are a lot if not all serious social movements. I explicitly offered my view that folk like you are not racist, nor dupes, nor naive, just hold views about the way to a more diverse society that won't work. Can't work. So it's a disagreement.
I also consider the funding sources for these cases, as Herbert noted, to come from groups that are strongly averse to the kind of diverse society we generated after the 50s thanks to the civil rights movement, to feminism, to the gay rights movement, and to many others.
Your shot. |
