The poster you’re responding to literally does not give up. I would just stop and ignore the troll. This crap is now starting to clog the thread.
I'm with JerseyGirl. There are numerous threads where you'll see said poster holding onto some whack notion as though it's of relevance or value, and arguing with everyone as though it makes sense. It doesn't. It never will. Some folks just have nothing better to do and like banging their dull heads against the wall.
It's the flat out blatant lying to your face liberal limousiners' hypocrisy to which many object.
They preach, preach, preach... "Oh, oh... we're all "equal"... Meanwhile, look away while I commit felonies to advantage my kids and grind your kids into the dust.
People of privilege have always greased hands to give themselves an advantage. I understand your frustration over the hypocrisy displayed by many of the offenders (for me, most notably Lori Loughlin, who is not a liberal btw), but, seriously, fraud is not a red or blue thing. Members of both parties have been guilty of this kind of stuff. It’s privilege, not party.
People of privilege, yes. But if this was bipartisan, it would have snared parents in both blue and red states. It didn't. It snared blue state parents on both coasts.
And you don't know how LL votes. Pro-life anti-abortion Catholics vote Dem, so it's entirely possible that LL does, as well.

This has been happening since the founding of our universities. That's why I see it so funny that people have a problem with affirmative action. Don't seem to understand that these universities have NEVER been fair. J.F.K. was a C student and still got into Harvard and went on to become the POTUS. Of course it only matters when it's none white people who make it in.
I was going to post that article. People of all political persuasions are willing to grease palms. But remember this is 50 people so don’t jump to the conclusion the most are willing.
It seems a few people may be failing to see the forest through the trees here....
The states in which this scam was used are not that important. Republicans and Democrats exist in each state. Rich families exist across the political spectrum. Got it.
Two points in which politics enter:
1) 'Elite' academic institutions that carry status/branding clout. Most schools are excessively pushing the socialist/liberal, Obama/Soros agenda these days. Intolerance to any political views except those that support the extreme left. Conservatives are silenced. Any other views are stiffled.
2) Media reporting. Bias in reporting. Conveniently ignoring certain people while singling out others. Media Matters (George Soros) suppresses things that are unflattering to the liberal agenda.
As I observed earlier, notice how apparently no parent tried to pay to get their child into CalTech or MIT. Some things cannot be bought with money or power.
