rolling "Is This Racist?" thread

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.

white people at the UCs are pretty horrible

white people at the UCs are pretty horrible

at the uc I went to a shitload of white ppl in the engineering dept would refer to asians as changers

like if something needed to be done, they were like "lets just get a changer to do it"

she'd fit in better at usc anyway

xp hilarious obv but I mean

uh oh - what uc has a shitload of white ppl in the engineering department??

lol I actually had a post clarifying that point

by shitload of white ppl in the engineering dept I meant a shitload OF the white ppl in the engineering dept

I wonder if wallace was a transfer student

as in did her GE at community college rather than entered as a freshman?

right

what makes you wonder that?

not used to a high number of asians in a library?

there are a lot of Asians at CA community colleges. Library facilities aren't as good, though.

what makes you wonder that?

cause she is an idiot and it's a bit easier for an idiot to transfer to UCLA than get in from hs.

(not saying everyone who transfers is an idiot!)

is UCLA hard to get into?

yes

goofy but made me laugh:

huh - there were quite a few idiots from my hs who went there.

honestly i have no idea if ucla is hard to get into -- i always assumed it was tho, at least second hardest after berkley

maybe they've changed their requirements significantly, but i don't remember any UC school's undergrad admission requirements being really challenging.

from hs it's pretty hard in-state. uc admissions are weird tho, I know a girl who got into barnard, columbia, brown, forgot what else, but she didn't get into UCLA. (she was hispanic fwiw, and UCs don't do affirmative action, at least not de facto)

it's very, very hard out of state / nearing elite private school selective if you're trying from out of state.

more students apply to it than any other school in the country.

but it also has the most transfers of the UCs and there's even a guaranteed transfer agreement with...santa monica cc iirc?

and UCs don't do affirmative action, at least not de facto

oh yeah, that was because of some other dumb ballot measure we passed.

eventually that's gonna hurt white ppl tho, so lol

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.

this was an Australian btw

so was the one who made homophobic comments: http://www.canberratimes.com.au/news/national/national/sport/rawson-rattles-a-few-cages/1427445.aspx

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

you don't have to look v hard to find a racist/homophobic australian xp

Australians are just Americans with almost-British accents.

And fewer guns.

Guess Rawson will have to go on WS of shame now

Haha I was just about to say that. I saw her IRL two days after that story broke. So many conflicted feelings, such a babe.

actually witnessed her reading an apology to the rest of the LPGA members!!!

that jimmy song makes me uncomfortable

its getting catchy tho

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.

thanks for the insider info

i got rejected from ucla

got into ucsc tho

i couldve been a banana slug

Racism means the cute and funny "Ting Tong" guy has already had his fifteen minutes. If he were white yer white grandma would be picking up his mass produced CD at Target right about now.

http://media.scout.com/media/forums/emoticons/140/clap.gif another cultural insight from ilx poster u s steel http://media.scout.com/media/forums/emoticons/140/clap.gif

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.

u s steel do you have visible boobs

The subject is racism, let's stick to the topic.
