How Harvard Wants To Make Racism Legal Again



The truth could care less about your feeee-lings.  The truth about diversity is that diversity sucks.  Diversity does not make things more interesting.  It makes them more mediocre.  It dumbs them down by filling them full of under-qualified idiots who don't have the requisite ninja moves.  That all being said, a certain amount of diversity will accrue.  The real problems with diversity begin when it gets forced beyond that level of natural occurrence. 

When diversity is forced on a basis of race, it is supposedly done to combat the chimerical evils of !RACISM!  Racism is an academic term invented in order to criminalize Freedom of Association which excluded groups that desired access to the resources of another group.  When people attempt to mobilize the government to tap these resources without earning any right to so enjoy them; negative externalities occur. 

One common occurrence is that meritocracies naturally tend to exclude people who don't bust their asses hard enough to be of legitimate merit.  A current example of this is occurring at Harvard.  The stereotypical fear is that the Asian kids are working too hard, scoring too well, and horking-up all the prestige billets.  Or they would land all of those billets if Harvard didn't rise up to smite the Yellow Peril of well-raised teenagers who do the Hell out of their job. 

Reactions to this have been increased effort to the asymptotic point where
 ridiculous approaches infinity  The patience for this was predictably finite and the Asian kids grew pissed.  Pissed people frequently turn violent and smash things. 

Intelligent pissed people do something far more threatening.  They find the sleaziest, most vile attorney they can on the Internet and they hire the Son of a Bitch. The Asians getting denied a shot a Harvard are both intelligent and quite pissed. Harvard may well find itself in condign deep sh!t.

Asian-American student who was denied admission despite being valedictorian of a competitive high school, achieving a perfect ACT score and a perfect score of 800 on two of the SAT II subject exams, and participating in numerous extracurricular and volunteer activities. The applicant, the lawsuit states, was "denied the opportunity to compete for admission to Harvard on equal footing with other applicants" due to his race.

Harvard went in for the predictable academic buzz words.  It was all about the "Holistic Review" of each applicant as a box-chec...oops; I mean human being. 

Then and now, the college considers each applicant through an individualized, holistic review having the goal of creating a vibrant academic community that exposes students to a wide-range of differences: background, ideas, experiences, talents and aspirations," said Robert Iuliano, Harvard's general counsel, in a statement.

Which fundamentally brings into question why our tax monies should still go to colleges and universities.  Do we want our engineering schools to produce people who can design buildings, bridges and operating room software systems that don't crash under heavy use?  If so, we need to focus away from holistic crap and get some people with drive and ability into these classrooms.  Again, you get to choose between diversity and excellence.  I don't see any serious NBA fans boycotting until the Champion Golden State Warriors have a roster that "Looks More like Amerika." 

By the same token, if Asian kids are the ones showing up to Harvard and actually bothering to study; guess who deserves the degrees and academic honors?  This isn't frikking hard.  Humans are creatures driven by incentive.  You do what gets you paid.  You do what gets you laid.  If you want positive behavior like hard work and a sincere effort to acquire detailed logic on challenging topics, that sort of thing has to be awarded. 

To be frank here, diversity can only work when it strives towards an unambiguous, positive and very non-diverse standard of unrelenting excellence.  Let these Asian kids be an example.  Let there be a fair competition.  Harvard will no longer be Saigon On The Charles when White, Black and Hispanic kids get the message that they need to lay off the fap and do things aimed at personal self-development.  Harvard making racism legal again will only temporarily forestall the demotism and destruction of people who don't give a crap and just rely on affirmative action programs.
