Last week the U.S. Supreme Court stuck down Affirmative Action in higher education when they reversed affirmative action after 62 years. The Supreme set new limits on affirmative action programs in cases involving whether public and private colleges and universities can continue to use race as one factor among many in student admissions.

“Seems like there’s a new BLACK commercial every day.”

I’ve seen a lot of homo ads lately too. I stay away from television for the most part.

If people are people, and are equally interchangeable, then why does it require force and perpetual threats of lawsuits?

And there’s a new fatty commercial every day. (I say this as someone who’s 30 lbs overweight.)

leaving experts in the field concerned that corporations’ talk of affecting change was just empty words.
Words empty of meaning, but full of gold.

I assume the studios ESG ratings are headed for the toilet as a result. Could be interesting!

#32 Hollywood and also in England and europe, the award shows now have a woke checklist. If you do not check all the woke boxes then your film or tv show does not qualify to be nominated no matter how popular the show is !!

The more woke, gays, pedophiles etc. the lower the ratings have been at the award shows yet they continue. Look at the Disney movie franchises that have lost billions in potential theater goers as people are saying enough! yet Disney plows ahead to more losses.
