Supreme Court accepted Affirmative Action cases

Affirmative Action was going to be unconstitutional anyway as of June 23, 2028, so all this will do is move up the clock a bit.

Affirmative Action was going to be unconstitutional anyway as of June 23, 2028, so all this will do is move up the clock a bit.

What about that date specifically?

On June 23, 2003 the Supreme Court issued their Grutter v. Bollinger which upheld affirmative action based on a 5-4 decision with Sandra Day O'Connor joining the liberals. However O'Connor wrote a bit of an odd decision, she said that affirmative action is justifiable due to systemic issues in society but also said that in time these could be resolved and it would no longer be necessary. And then the kind of weird and very Sandra Day O'Connor-ish thing she did was set an actual deadline: stating 25 years from now affirmative action would no longer be necessary. So being the median vote that set the precedent: affirmative actions is legal and constitutional, but only for 25 years years from the point of that decision being written, hence until June 23, 2028.

Good.

Affirmative action is the greatest example of modern-day systemic racism.

Systemic racism? Talk about white fragility.

Fragility is when people are upset about being discriminated against, apparently.

There is an argument to be made that affirmative action negatively impacts Asian-Americans, but the idea that it negatively impacts white people is completely ridiculous.

Look at the Bakke case, it negatively affected that guy.

To be fair that case involved quotas, not just affirmative action in general, and since it quotas have been illegal in the United States, so it's not really a factor today.
