Around the same time, in Baltimore, the conservative group America First Legal, which was founded by Trump adviser Stephen Miller in 2021, filed a Title VI complaint against Johns Hopkins University over its tuition-free medical school program for students from families earning under $300,000—a move made possible by a $1 billion gift from Bloomberg Philanthropies. America First Legal seizes on the university’s stated goal of increasing “socioeconomic diversity,” casting it as a backdoor attempt at racial engineering: Citing Census data on racial wealth gaps, the complaint asserts that the tuition-free program “masks racial preferences behind income thresholds.”
god forbid anyone else get a chance, right guys? Always surprising that the meritocracy promoters want to rely on their white skin so much.

Fascist ideology, which is what Miller, Trump, Dugin, Putin and Bannon espouse, mandates that only a single human being, a white male, counts in every sense of the term.
No one else deserves any type of recognition, whether it’s a display of how Native American women preserved the forest now known as Muir Woods in Northern California, or a decorated hero of WWII, if he is a Black man…All but white males are lesser beings, and should be granted no acknowledgement, honor and rights at all.
They should not be allowed to vote, to get educations, to own property, etc.
This is what this anti-DEI garbage is all about. And that is all it is. Making everyone but white men into second or third class citizens.
As Dugin puts it, the very idea of human rights is an abomination that must be eradicated from the world.

They have all the merit. But the rest of us are too genetically inferior to recognize it. Thus, all the syatems we create are inherently biased and unfair. Why can’t you see that?
… oh, right…

it might be a good idea to suggest to the stevie millers that they ‘stuff it’… we give too much importance to what these people say, i personally do not give a flying fig for their opinions etc., except when they get tax payer funds to promote their HS…do not allow these creeps to dominate your life. i think maybe HARVARDand other schools like it, have so much money there is no reason for them to get tax payer funds.
