This is fucking horrific

I like Chris, but this isn't "right-wing affirmative action," and people on the left should stop using this framing, which reinforces stigma against affirmative action (which is good). Rufo was promoted because white supremacy always elevates mediocre liars who harm nonwhites. That's the point.
