my guess is any new administration would realize it’s a massive political loser.

i’m personally in favor of some limited AA in unis, but if even black people are majority against AA when polled… it’s definitely not coming back. might be that this changes once minority groups realize how much of an impact it was actually having, i think a large segment of people convinced themselves that a lot more of these admissions were by pure merit than is supported by the data.

What's an aa? I get American Airlines when I duck it and I know of libaa but that doesn't fit the context either

affirmative action. you can also generally just copy and paste into chatgpt and it will be able to answer your question

(And burn a tree in the process as compared to a human answer) Thanks for clarifying!

a chatgpt query is like 10x a google query (before they added LLM summary), you’d have more impact cutting out meat or taking fewer flights
