To me, this is much more damaging than unrepentant and flagrant racism because in this case, the victim is participating in his own discrimination.

In addition, affirmative action takes the focus off the source of the problem and therefore, removes the pressure to solve it at its source by addressing the consequences of the root problem instead of the source of the root problem. This is not unlike the doctor opting to treat a disease rather than innoculate you for it.

Its time to stop treating the symptoms and cure the disease. If the medical community thought like this we'd all be catching smallpox.
