tranchemusiceeeEvrewsThe amount of trump apologists on the forums is actually disturbing
everyone here is a lower middle class white guy who had to drop out of college because they had "depression" (played too much tf2)
this is the PRIME trump demographic
lower middle class don't play video games all day
most people here are upper middle class
most of the people in my mumble are lower middle or middle. I think fen is the only person that I talk to in this community who is actually upper middle class and he's a first gen immigrants so i dont think he really counts. Might just be my bubble but the majority of the people I've heard talk about their jobs are either working for hourly wages or in college on student loans. The definition of lower middle class is a lot higher up than you probably think tbh.
speaking as a mouth piece for the humanities professor who I sit next to for a couple hours a week: affirmative action is an attempt to counteract the fact that an equally qualified black applicant would naturally be overlooked for a white applicant with the same resume.
from that perspective I'd say it isn't a bad goal idk
@springrolls third paragraph
its really shitty to have your achievements reduced, but I think that anyone who supports AA full stop would just counter with "well its better to get shit on than never get anywhere to begin with". You can say intelligent people will shine through regardless but that's pretty optimistic imo
