Teenager repeats #Blacklivesmatter 100 times on Stanford application and is accepted

And you will make up any excuse just so you do not have to accept the inconvenient obvious. The obvious is this. Noone, no matter what their color, political affiliation, religion or gender, no matter what their grades are, should be accepted to any semi-reputable, and especially highly reputable university after doing what this person did. That's not clear to you?

I find having to write an essay to get into a school a ridiculous thing. The guy was right doing what he did.

It's bad enough we have to be saddled with mountains of debt to partake in something that is (or at least should be) a basic human right, then on top of that, we have to explain to the institution why we deserve to be there. It underlines one of the fundamental flaws of how education is viewed in a capitalist society: as privilege, rather than a right. And of course, its contradictory, since our capitalist lords and masters require us to attend and acquire a piece of paper if we want the "better" jobs yet most of us are forced into insurmountable debt to do it, if we can do it at all. It's why my generation and the one after are having kids later, and not buying homes, because of student loan debt in conjunction with stagnant and shitty wages cause our slave owners want to pay us as little as possible.

But I digress. This was yet another pointless thread that should never have been made. Ashock should apply to be a journalist at Fox News, or better yet, Brietbart. I'm sure they'd welcome him in a second.
