@WokeMaelle@mattyglesias@kevsaucebro Huh. The electoral college and the house are moving hard in republican favor. Dems will now have to win red states. So the dems will have to move the right to compete
@WokeMaelle@mattyglesias@kevsaucebro and the election is to replace her. Many don't want a police abolitionist to make DC worse and make it more likely for Republicans to win nationally bc they point to how bad far lefties manage blue cities
@Tool_Being@slope_s_ When showed proof that the professors strong urged against dropping tests, you say “i don’t care” bc of your observations (probably online)
@WokeMaelle@mattyglesias@kevsaucebro what hurts the Dems nationally is incompetence in major cities run by Dems. DC is a prime example: marion barry set back the Dems for an entire generation
@ericstait@Halfmoonstream1@charlesmurray There are the top 5-10 business schools that are elite and then another 5-10 that are second tier. Beyond that, it’s almost impossible to get a top job (investment banking/PE/Hedge fund/VC). The upper portion of that is mid-tier. That’s your school, it’s not the Booth school/HBS
@A_Pretty_ChemE That is exactly what I’m arguing because it’s the law
You can’t treat blacks differently than Asian for any reason including that there’s not a lot of them applying. They have to be treated like lotto ping pong balls, all else equal
@A_Pretty_ChemE Rate is all that matters. If you want more blacks at top schools, they need to do the work to get higher grades/scores: the issue is there’s only a small amount of qualified black applicants RN. Just bc it’s a small number doesn’t mean they get better odds
@A_Pretty_ChemE The point is that schools actually do control the acceptance rate by race: it is far easier to get in if you’re black. It’s a completely different standard
@A_Pretty_ChemE Yes - and the racial makeup of those getting left out should match the ratio of those who apply with the same credentials
If blacks have 29x the odds of Asians (w/the same credentials), that’s racist
@jearosky@tomieinlove Do you think that blacks who score well (say above the 90th percentile) have better personalities than Asians with the same score? Why would that be?
