"College education is often the way for people to be able to escape those cycles of poverty that they and their families have lived in for generations."
I hate to say this but I’m completely for this. I’m the last guy on the list in favor for reparations in the form of a cash app transaction, but this seems like a bill to give a hand out to a person that’s actually trying to better themselves. The urban bro I bought drugs from blasting ghetto shit in his blue challenger in a NC shithole, isn’t really the type to submit college applications and tuition requests lol.
yeah I don't see a problem with this at all, it's like getting a payout from the government because your dad died from mesothelioma but actually creates value in the recipients' lives.
A victim mindset only sucks if you do nothing but whine about it. It aint bad to use a system not designed to help you in order for it to actually help you.
I will simply wear blackface to drink at the 'correct' water fountain. 😎
I'm not sure I see the virtue in just accepting being cucked by society because you were born a whiteboi. Not sure how it's mutually exclusive with taking responsibility for yourself either.
My whole point is not to be a victim. You owe nothing to a system that hates you and taxes you. I don't care what someone thinks if they would think less of me for exploiting such a system. It's true your professional reputation can be damaged which is why you obviously need to weigh risks.
Carry on then. I actually stated I was hispanic when I applied for schools despite only being 1/4 Guatemalan and it being pretty impossible that anyone would think I am actually Latino.
Not that it did me any good considering I only applied for state schools.

I feel like the optics on this are questionable. That being said I respect the hell out of anyone who can bilk money from the government using this.

I guess he's planning on going back to school. Gotta save where you can.

Never hate to say the things you believe, king.

That would suggest it should be based on class, not race.

So they are expanding their basketball and football scholarships ?
1 heretobefriends 2021-04-04
How does one establish they are the descendant of a slave?
Will they be required to submit a family tree?
1 busslordlowkeybussin 2021-04-04
Or at least a picture of the tree their family was hanged from?

Do italians count?

I'm unironically gunna say I'm PeeOhCee when I apply for college when the closest thing I have is Spanish/Irish.
There is literally no reason to not try to cheat a system that hates you.

That sort of victim mindset isn't healthy, king.

It's healthier to just pay reparations and not try to grift some of it for yourself?
1 heretobefriends 2021-04-04
Yes, maintaining a virtuous life is healthier and dishonesty is not virtuous.

This is that victim mentality again.
Who exactly is hurting you and how?

I did, but it failed to turn me into a sociopath. Maybe I wasn't one before and that's why it didn't click?

1 heretobefriends 2021-04-04
Once again, who exactly is victimizing you?
1 KissingerFanGirl 2021-04-04
The people placing racial quotas in society.
1 heretobefriends 2021-04-04
You're still being vague.
And that still doesn't tell us how you're being harmed.
1 KissingerFanGirl 2021-04-04
Use context maybe? It's pretty obvious given what we're talking about.
How could excluding certain groups from opportunities created with public resources harm members of that group. It truly is a mystery. 🤔🤔🤔
1 heretobefriends 2021-04-04
The context is the suffering you have experienced and who has inflicted it.
Tell us about the specific thing you were excluded from.
1 PacificSpices 2021-04-04
I am taking responsibility for myself. By scamming people who deserve it.
I'm not exactly taking candy from a baby here.
1 heretobefriends 2021-04-04
If that's the kind of person you want to be, by all means. But then you're no longer innocent.

This is a very weird bait

Yeah, it is strange the first time you start thinking about the consequences of your actions. It'll get easier with time, kid.
1 ArachnoLibrarian 2021-04-04
That which is falling should also be pushed.
1 DuckSosu 2021-04-04
I sincerely hope this doesn't mean you are a high schooler.
1 PacificSpices 2021-04-04
I'm not

That's the spirit. This is absolutely right.
1 Leylinus 2021-04-04
No meme, because my pap is more than a quadroon and I wouldn't mind picking up a meme masters at free online school.
1 PacificSpices 2021-04-04
Just list yourself as 'Hispanic' when the question comes up. So long as you have dark hair and eyes you should be fine. 😉
1 Leylinus 2021-04-04
Most of my family now is Hispanic, they don't seem to get shit. Black is where the money is.
