Socialist [Communist] Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York had a bizarre response to the decision Thursday by the Supreme Court against affirmative action in higher education.
Ocasio-Cortez, along with other angry leftists, raged against the decision. Her interpretations were strange.
“If SCOTUS was serious about their ludicrous ‘colorblindness’ claims, they would have abolished legacy admissions, aka affirmative action for the privileged,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.

70% of Harvard’s legacy applicants are white. SCOTUS didn’t touch that – which would have impacted them and their patrons.

“70% of Harvard’s legacy applicants are white. SCOTUS didn’t touch that – which would have impacted them and their patrons,” she added.
That’s an absolutely ridiculous thing to say. Legacy admissions were not before the Supreme Court. How could they vote on it? They didn’t touch it because it wasn’t there. Maybe she thought they could willy-nilly, pick another issue to consider. In any case, legacy admission does not fall under the Constitution. Racism does.
She says the dumbest things.
Additionally, the census bureau notes that the white population of the United States is 75.5%. Can this woman do math? The US is predominantly white, Alexandria.
Also, the students who were admitted to Harvard would have to have terrific scores if they weren’t affirmative action.
Democrats are making satire come true.

I would strongly dispute the claim that 70% of the Harvard admissions are going to Whites. I’d say, lets break down that 70% statistic and separate the number of Whites and the number of Jewish enrollments and I would guarantee that the percentage of Whites would drop drastically. I mean, get real. The entire purpose of Affirmative Action, from it’s… Read more »
The ruling is far too late. Sandra O’Connor in 2003 ruled the bias was needed for 25 more years, justifying a suspension in fairness, doing great damage to America. She was a beneficiary of AA. Sex based discrimination is also rampant. This ruling has implications in corporations also, but we do not expect anyone in universities or corporations to rush… Read more »
I don’t know if AOC is stupid, but she often has proved how ignorant she is, especially about USA history and its constitution. AT TIMES I WONDER IF SHE WAS EVEN A GOOD BAR-TENDER.
That’s a good point, I doubt she can be effective at anything. She is an aspiring senator.
I notice that AOC seems to not have any positions that would compel her to discriminate against White males when it comes time to decide who she chooses to go to bed with. I mean, if AOC had any real principles hardwired into her brain, wouldn’t she be sharing her bed with a Puerto Rican horn dog? I also notice… Read more »
