    Apparently, the former staffer is a complete fake.

    For some, the Twitter sphere is a great place to be misinformed and spread misinformation. For some strange reason, the same folks keep falling for it and continue spreading it.

    Twitter is filled with a lot of fake accounts that exist just to spread divsion and hate.

    I won't say they are Russian bots or whatever as its entirely possible some rando right winger created it all the same but they sure do exist.

    I remember one day going down a racist rabbit hole and finding nothing but conspicuous profiles claiming to black women who all did nothing but talk about how violent black men are and are bad for society.

    Twitter as a whole has just been terrible for political discourse

    I had a 3.9 in college so my kids can succeed with a 1.9 in their private High School.

    So the last two Republican presidents benefited from preferential treatment and performed poorly in school.

    Another regrettable outcome of affirmative actions based on race is the potential for fostering resentment. Let me clarify that I do not endorse or support resentment as it is an unhealthy emotional state that can lead to destructive behaviors and even hatred. However, if any feelings of resentment do arise, it may be worthwhile to consider directing them towards a specific group that benefits from privileged college admissions without demonstrating the same level of effort, such as achieving reasonably good grades. This is a complex issue, and it's important to approach it with empathy and a desire for constructive dialogue. #Bewell.

    @AroundTheWorld -- do you care that you posted a fake bot to try to make a political point? Didn't that just make us all collectively more stupid? And, wouldn't you agree that Twitter is getting worse by the week, if not by the day?

    Like one big hoopshype or similar trash, LOL, but for "news" (sic).

    EDIT: I wonder if CF.net could give us a Twitter filter. I just don't need to see anything from that nonsense 4chanlite platform at this point.

    What’s your preferred melody? Harvard’s all like, ‘Sure thing, we’ll play along with the Court’s decision,’ but hey, that doesn’t change their rhythm. They’re still grooving to the beat of valuing diversity in background and experiences. It’s like they’ve got their own catchy tune, and they’re not skipping a beat! What beats do you want? A monolithic white noise?
