No, that's not fine either and should also be outlawed due to a history of systemic racism giving some people an advantage over others.

It should be 100% merit based, plain and simple. It's the only fair way.

Funny how we addressed the tool that helped black kids first, rather than the one that hurt them.

Maybe it's because this is being pushed by bad people, that you seem to agree with under some fantasy of "100% merit based" reality.

Systemic biases exist, AA compensated for them banking AA is basically pretending this nation isn't racist AF.

That's not how it's going to play out in reality, unfortunately. I truly wish it were.
