Who said anything about Affirmative Action?

You dismissed the importance of history. That's what I objected to.

And you just dismissed it again. And you're still wrong.

We’re literally on the main thread commenting on a Supreme Court ruling which tossed out Affirmative Action. It’s not unusual for people to talk about the main topic in the comments.

Perhaps you and others are/were. But I didn't. In fact, I never voiced an opinion about Affirmative Action at all.

Rather, I pointed out that ignoring history is a bad idea.

Feel free to disagree with that assertion, but I didn't discuss AA, nor was my reply related to the recent SCOTUS decision.

Are you suggesting that I keep my big mouth shut if, in your estimation, I'm not sufficiently "on topic?" Not saying that's what you're implying, but it's definitely something that could be inferred -- and I did.

If I misunderstood, please do correct me.
