never underestimate the stupidity of Californians when it comes to state ballot measures.

I literally know multiple white girls who got into berkeley's engineering program because they were white girls. I mentioned this upthread but at lots of schools (not just the UCs) there really is affirmative action for white people at this point in that they'll be picked over a similarly qualified asian kid.

we're talking about a country where a professional LPGA golfer once asked the LPGA to limit the number of Asian golfers allowed on tour once because she "they had a lack of emotion and didn't attempt to speak English". not surprising at all.

California is probably due for yet another racist ballot measure, trying to remember the last one.

i was a community college transfer into ucla. my cc also had a "guaranteed admission" system that operated through their honors program. you took a certain curriculum, maintained a certain gpa, etc. i wouldn't be surprised if many/most california cc's had a similar program.
anyway at no point was i made to take a class called "how not to be a stupid fucking racist" before i transfered, so that was probably the problem.

Who gets more attention, ditzy white girl we can laugh at or videos by Asians or Asian-Americans responding to it? Why are people paying attention to this video? There are far crueller things on the internet with regard to Asians and Affirmative Action programs, they're just not produced by young blonde students with visible boobs.
