Huh? The linked article is nothing more than "this guy is black, so therefore helping any underprivileged black people gain university admissions is bad"

It's outrageous racism. A conclusion about all minorities based on one person's math mistake, where the logic is entirely based on shared skin color.

If you replace the races and make it a conclusion about legacy admissions or something, it's obviously stupid and illogical, right?

"This white guy doesn't know Afghanistan from Kazakhstan. More proof legacy admissions is bad!"
