don't get sloppy about how you name things. this isn't "another name" for affirmation action. the correct name for it is patronage. Charles Kushner is a patron of Harvard and they gave his family a favor in exchange.

A rich white person being given preferential treatment = affirmative action?

Hottest take of all time
