Look at it all breaking down in the thread, it's comical man. Is this what it looks like when a moran becomes self-aware?

white privilege means lying about your race when it's comvenient

A survey from Intelligent found that 34 percent of white students who applied to colleges and universities falsely claimed they were a racial minority on their application.

The publication found that 81 percent of students who faked minority status did so to improve their chances of getting accepted. Fifty percent of students who lied said they did it to get minority-focused financial aid.


Most students, 48 percent, claimed to be Native American on their application. Thirteen percent falsely marked that they were Latino, while 10 percent falsely claimed to be Black. Nine percent of those surveyed lied that they were Asian or Pacific Islander.

For the most part, Intelligent found, these white students tended to get away with their lies. About 3 in 4, or 77 percent, of white applicants who faked minority status on their applications were accepted to those colleges.

1. Yeah, I know, it's an adjacent key typo.

2. In the real world, "white students lying about their race on college applications," means white students know that colleges discriminate against white applicants.

3. In how many DU-threads are DUpipo slobbering out praise for and defending Rachel Dolezal? (Yeah, I'm sure some on DU instead criticized her)

Race pimp Ibram X Kendi got his butt ripped for posting that article on twitter this weekend, and the people with more than one functioning brain cell realized it undermined the concept of white privilege.  Naturally, he deleted the tweet, but there are plenty of screenshots.

3. Science says the concept of race is invalid.

But who cares what Anthropologist and Geneticist prove to be true.
Might be better to look at other variables like culture, economic conditions and results of bigotry.

But believe the science!!!!11!!!!

Paging Psychojawia, Paging Psychojawia. Back when being just 1/1024th Indian was proof of minority status.

As a side note does anyone know if Warren kept the prop Golden Retriever after her campaign imploded?

Well, what do you know? People lie when there's an incentive to do so!

Leftists pull stuff out of their bungholes even when it would be more beneficial for them personally to be honest. I swear it's either a genetic thing or a common part of the conditioning that takes place to make one a leftist piece of excrement.

To borrow a line from The Coach:

Dummies lie. All the time, DUmmies lie.

I promise, Frank; that sage counsel should be your epitaph.

If true, I wonder why Whites would lie on the college applications? Could it be that all of the lowering of standards and special carve outs that non-Whites get? Why YES, yes it is.
