Amused Musings On A Slightly Absurd World

This week UC Berkeley College Republicans will be hosting a “Diversity Bake Sale.”  See here. Yes, if you’re white, your cupcake will cost you $2, $1.50 if you’re Asian descent, $1 if you’re of Hispanic/Latino descent, $0.75 if you’re black, and $0.25 if you’re Native American.  Also every woman gets $.25 off.  What the *((()(&^^&%%%&%&^?  Supposedly this little bake sale is supposed to be some sort of protest against affirmative action.  My first thought was, are these guys insane–they go to Berkley the epitome of institutional liberalism.  Granola, anyone?  Next, what does this really say about affirmative action?  Really all it says that cupcakes for white people are more highly valued than cupcakes for all other races.  Really, what the fudge?
