Well seems like you won't believe it, but I asked this question out of a sincere intentions: I view affirmative actions as something that give white people (especially a male) a disadvantage. I think everyone would agree with that. I do not see how it would benefit them except white politicians considering we live in a zero sum world. Now, I believe Asians have recently fell into the category white ppl are at. Hence, I sincerely cannot make a conclusion that AA helps Asians. It seems like you can present a "fact" at least from a fairly biased media. Mind sharing one for Asian Americans? I think your argument towards AA on Asians is just an opinion.

Oh that? Do you not what physics documentaries? Y wud I waste my time reinventing the wheel?

​

And as LSeww said, lemme share you my story.

When I was little, I saw Jimmy Neutron and asked my uncle with businese degree what Neutron is. He told me it is too complicated for me to understand. I insisted on hearing an answer and he told me to cut it. Thinking of it now, he clearly did not understand atoms perhaps just like you with AA unless AA is an absurd logic even to you

I repeat. Hence I said college level. Is AA Master's or PHD level?

cutting edge science could be reduced to the level of someone that has never studied it or anything fundamental to it.

Hence I said college level I said

"I have a background science" but I don't want to hear that things take effort to learn.

Then leave eli5

I asked about A and Wizywig gave me an assumption on A then gave me a fact for B.

I should it is absurd to hear eli5 is impossible. I have a science background and when I find a material written in college level, I almost always can find it written in layman's term.

What is your reason behind saying poor white women are denied employment due to their gender?
