There is actually a lot more extra help granted to white people especially the well off than will ever go to black people. There is a higher proportion of white people in Harvard now who wouldn't have made it purely on merit than any other race. In a less shitty environment maybe being colorblind would actually make sense. In actuality it decreases fairness.

Clearly the current systems are not helping, despite all the aid given to them.

The actual aid that is available to families is largely a joke

why work harder for less, when I can live off government aid

You actually largely can't you would end up living with the hobos on the cardboard if you without any disability decided not to bust your fucking ass.

Asian/Ellis Island era European immigrants didn’t have the same aid, and 80 years later Asians are among the most successful groups, or at least average.

80 years ago isn't today. 80 years ago jobs that paid 50k didn't require 100K in debt while houses cost $400k.

You are basically a KKK member without a hood.

You took this out of context and have yet to provide a single example. I said by law we all have equal rights and opportunities. In reality, that is obviously not the case, but not do to laws.

Where the fuck is my extra help? The well off created the systems to keep them well off, and the rest of us get to stay poor. Unless you can change that, we're all fucked.

I'd like to compare that to the number of rejected black students as well. Looking at Harvard's site, the number of black students accepted to Harvard is sigifinatly less than white students. Partially due to the fact theres a significantly higher white population in the nation, unless that difference goes away, statiscally we will never see an equal amount of white people and black people in the same "space". I wasn't able to find the diversity statitics for applications, I'd love to see how that compares to the admitted students. I won't fault Harvard if more whites get in because that how numbers work. To be clear, that's from a purly statistical point of view. If anyone gets accepted/rejected specficaly because of their skin color, that's is a problem.

We all bust our asses and people still can't go to collage without loans or buy a house, that's not a race specific issue.

Why would you make light of the atrocities made by the KKK? The KKK were murdering blacks out of pure hatred. Not once in any of my comments did I suggest any kind of violence. If your arguments reduce into insane accusations, how am I supposed to take anything you say seriously?
