[WIRE] One of the many remarkable things about activists who want to remake society, and invert every hierarchy that civilization has ever had in the name of "equity," is how aggressive and totally unflinching they are. They don’t ask permission, they just do it. And they do it in such great numbers, in so many different areas, that it’s impossible to even keep track of them. Even if you object to their project, as most people do, there’s no way to keep yourself fully informed about what’s happening, simply because of the scale of the whole operation.
Here’s a recap, which is nowhere near exhaustive. In just the last couple of months, we’ve learned that the LAPD is relaxing its standards for new officers in order to recruit fewer white males.
We’ve heard that the San Francisco school board will lower entrance requirements, and that the Regents Exam in New York will soon be optional for high school graduates. (As the New York Times put it, "The test had once been seen as a hallmark of academic rigor, but high-stakes graduation tests have fallen out of favor nationally.")
We’ve also been informed that the law school admission test, the LSAT, will drop its challenging "logic games" section, supposedly to help blind applicants.
