LOL, on a post about a banker for a father pulling his child from a private school because they teach anti-racism. LOLOLOLOLOL

Yes. And you still haven't answered the question. I asked you a few times, to no avail.

The logical conclusion is that you don't have an answer...

They had waiting lists. Yes, absolutely.

But they truly went woke recently, and I believe this is going to affect their attractivity for a lot of families.

Paying a $50k+ tuition for your child to get a top-notch education is a lot different than paying $50k+ for him/her to be indoctrinated
into a divisive and destructive ideology.

No, it's that I don't bother wasting my time arguing things I'm never going to agree on. Simple as that.

Ok, so you don't and probably never knew what you were talking about.

Foolish me, I actually took you seriously.

There are still five whites for every black in this country. Do you think pissing them off by putting them at a structural disadvantage through affirmative action is the way to eliminate perceived discrimination against blacks? Affirmative action has likely created vastly more discrimination than it's eliminated. It's one of the main reasons conservative politicians are competitive in a lot of areas.

Ramaz is about as rich and republican leaning as I can think of. The head rabbi spoke at the Republican national convention and is close with Ivanka. They had Jeb Bush as a guest speaker. And the graduates head for the ivys. It is not secular but does it still count?
