Support socioeconomic Affirmative Action in preference to race based, but will support the latter when the former in not available, so: usually agree

The high amount of disagrees on this forum is not surprising, given its overwhelming young and white makeup.

Astute observation.  I was very opposed to affirmative action as a teenager, and perhaps into my early 20s.  Then I saw the world...

You're not a racist, you just prefer to treat certain races as inferior because of the color of their skin.

AA based on socioeconomic status?  Fine.  AA based on race is the very definition of racism.  What a condescending initiative.

Not when it is being used as an attempt to counteract decades of policy 110% based on race, specifically, making sure one race was always far, far, far underneath another in a socioeconomic sense.
