WaPo Admits Affirmative Action Ruling Is Popular Among Americans

'What’s particularly striking about the Economist/YouGov poll is how Black Americans responded...'

(Dmytro “Henry” AleksandrovHeadline USA) Even though most Americans supported the Supreme Court‘s decision regarding affirmative action, the corrupt mainstream was still pushing the propaganda that the decision is not popular until the Washington Post came out admitting the reality.

As a matter of fact, the Post not only reported that the decision was “quite popular,” but also explained that the data shows that “even Black Americans are unlikely to strongly object” to the ruling.

The data includes at least two major polls, among which are a new Economist/YouGov poll that showed that 59% of Americans approved of the ruling while just 27% disapproved and an ABC News poll that found Americans approve of the decision by a 20-point margin over those who dislike it.

However, the most “striking” thing about the data for the author of the article was the fact that black Americans approve of the ruling, too.

“What’s particularly striking about the Economist/YouGov poll is how Black Americans responded. Indeed, more of them actually approved of the decision (more than 4 in 10) than disapproved (fewer than 4 in 10). And more Black Americans “strongly” approved (31 percent) than disapproved (26 percent),” the Post wrote.

“This finding is also in line with previous polling. While polls have long shown Black Americans in favor of affirmative action, The Washington Post-Schar School poll showed nearly half (47 percent) supported banning the use of race and ethnicity in admissions.”

The author tried to explain black Americans disapproving of affirmative action by attributing it to a “lack of a perceived personal connection to the policy.”

“This vision of meeting social racism with government-imposed racism is thus self-defeating, resulting in a never-ending cycle of victimization,” Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in the last week’s opinion.

“In the wake of the Civil War, the Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment charted a way out: a colorblind Constitution that requires the government to, at long last, put aside its citizens’ skin color and focus on their individual achievements.”
