An r/ssc thread showed up in my feed the other day, it was about physics professors petitioning to bring back the SAT math requirement for STEM majors, and the top comment was about how it was originally axed to hide asiatic math supremacy because it was too in your face evidence for a racial intellectual hierarchy.

The latest ACX is a book review that amounts to siskind endlessly ratsplaining the Frankfurt school while re-framing the cultural marxism conspiracy theory for a rat audience as a running bit.

So yeah.

It's a feature not a bug. UC administrators want a diverse student population without explicitly using race.

It's a fact that Asians outperform other races in objective measures of academic preparedness, so the obvious "solution" is to get rid of the SAT and replace it with less objective measures like GPA.

I can't imagine the kids who can't do high school math thriving in a stem major in the UCs. The road to hell truly is paved with good intentions.

Foundational values are a political technology that lossily compresses ideology into something more memetic.

Listen, we already know you're a racist, you don't have to work so hard to make us hate you!

"when you control for applicant qualifications discounted for affirmative action, there is no net racial discrimination in the ___ sector"

I'm not sure I understand this right (which I imagine is the purpose of his phrasing), but is this basically saying "if you assume black people are less competent, there is no racial discrimination"?
