    So are you now advocating that DEI should only benefit specific minorities?

      Especially since black ppl make up about 8% of ivy league universities while Asians make up close to 20%

      Seems to me that DEI already benefits Asians greatly.

        I’ve linked about 10 sources now that point out Asians are NOT benefiting from DEI. They’re getting there despite it.

          “Them getting there despite it” just goes to show they don’t need the extra accommodations of DEI, which are entirely and intrinsically based on the final outcome.

          Why should DEI stretch to accommodate them when they’re performing equally as people without DEI? DEI is not about ending all oppression but ending measurable differences in education based on opportunity, which involves not giving it to groups who don’t need it.
