Bribing and cheating your way into a public university? I’m filing this mess under White Bullshit.

  Lori Loughlin is a conservative Christian. Shut the fuck up if you don’t know what you’re talking about.

  Right?! The only way you would need to spend money on ACTUAL bribes to get your spawn into a PUBLIC UNIVERSITY is if your kid is such a stupid fuck-up that tutors aren’t cutting it*.
  
  *I know this from experience as a tutor.

Loughlin is apparently married to some designer. In reading this story over at Jezebel I found out who these two (her parents) were trying to get admitted to USC:
according to maraleia over at Jezebel:
Lori’s husband is the fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli and their daughters are dumb as dirt.
This caused heywhat to respond by writing:
Lol, you don’t say? Her daughter is an influencer and says shit like this:
“I don’t know how much of school I’m gonna attend,” she shared with her nearly 2 million subscribers, after explaining her extensive work schedule. “But I’m gonna go in and talk to my deans and everyone, and hope that I can try and balance it all. But I do want the experience of like game days, partying…I don’t really care about school, as you guys all know.”
Here is some of her work: https://www.instagram.com/oliviajade/?hl=en
ONLY THE BEST AND BRIGHTEST FOR USC APPARENTLY!

  If you’ve ever been to Target, you’ve seen his stuff, it’s called Missoni. As I said on the other article if they were more creative there would be no need for this. Missoni could have set up a scholarship/internship for aspiring designers. William H. Macy could have offered a special masterclass for acting students. That’s how you barter you dumdums into a decent school.

  Mossimo. The brand was huge in the late 90s.

This is just a too perfect representation of white privilege, white ego, and white people in general.
You’re a rich, famous actor, and so your kids have maybe a little fame, and DEFINITELY enough money for them to at least live a nice life, with limitless possibilities to turn that fortune into more money, thereby ensuring your descendants will live comfortably for generations.
Despite ALL of that, which puts you at an advantage higher than, say 98.723% of American citizens, you have to cheat to a ridiculous degree (spending half a million just to get your idiot kid INTO school, let alone tuition, and the need to pay off dozens/hundreds of people to do their work and let them fail upward for the rest of their already disgusting life, really?!?!?), and the whole way, you know damn well you’re not only taking chances away from people more deserving, you’re breaking the law and showing your talentless kid (because let’s face it, would even an over-privileged mother do all this for a kid who could get a C on their own???) that they never have to work a day in their life (which is ALREADY true of rich folks!), and can throw money at any problem to make it go away (can we charge these assholes with enabling affluenza, at the possible cost of countless lives?).
Jesus Christ, is Aunt Becky going to be our next president, therefore cementing our warm spot in the apocalypse before 2030?
Final food for thought, I hate that this is inevitably going to make their useless kids even more famous...

  I mean, if I was rich enough so that my kids didn’t have to work, I wouldn’t bother sending them to college unless they show a real aptitude for academics. College is expensive, I got to save that money for my life style of not working.
  Of course, this is a purely hypothetical example. I wouldn’t let my potential kids be dumb-asses.

Oh no, the colonizers rigged the system to benefit their descendants? I thought they all got into the elite schools purely on merit - you know, like, Donald Trump and Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump and George Bush...Whatever.
This is the tip of the iceberg - a story taylormade for TheRoot...Wait, didn’t Michael write about being in an Advanced Placement or honors program class and wondering how some white students got in? Maybe it was some one else...Anyway i’m gonna get me some snacks, sit back, and enjoy that massive scandal right here.
Frankly I don’t think the media will give this story the justice it deserves.. and don’t be fooled by the black faces they will throw in there to distract/detract from the fact that this is all about white supremacy and white privilege.

There are so many parts of this story that are too stereotypical to be true. I mean the involvement of Lori Loughlin AKA: Aunt Becky. Trying to get her two daughters into USC (University of Spoiled Children) Felecity Huffman who’s Husband is on a show named Shameless. I mean Hollywood couldn’t write a script this good. Oh you know this shit is becoming a movie and the bidding rights have already begun. As for the Tyler’s, Chad’s, Hannah’s of the world that already have all the advantages baked into their lives what is one more. For real if you could get your kid a better life through cash you’d do it, the only difference is they begrudge anyone else getting that same opportunity. Sit down white people about Affirmative Action because the biggest beneficiaries of it are the two that got caught in this scandal, WHITE WOMEN. Oh Operation Varsity Blues? Man you shitting on Paul Walker and James VanderBeek

  I’d love to see Aunt Becky’s orange jumpsuit and teary mugshot, but I don’t think they do that for conventionally attractive white ladies.

Back in my day they called this a donation and the school named something after you as a result as well as letting your kid in. My high school didn’t have a tree, a stick, a mud patch or dumpster without a little bronze plaque in loving memory of some benevolent benefactor.
P.S. Who has to bribe someone to get into the University of Spoiled Children? Their motto is “Pay your fees and get your B’s.”

  In the recent decade USC’s admission rate is only at 15%. USC is a highly competitive school, and I know a couple of intelligent people who applied there and were accepted.

  Well you gotta pay at least 7 figures to get a building named after you. This is the discount option in these parents’ eyes.

  My uncle, who was an HBCU dean (before he died) used to say things like “You do know who the European royals sent over to ‘colonize’ the New World, right? Hint: It wasn’t their own relatives.”
  It was the riff-raff. England used to send the criminals to Australia before they started sending them here to steal crops from the Native Americans. The “original” American robber barons were the descendants of those same criminals.
  They’ve always been a bunch of thugs. That’s one of the big reasons they have to project their own worst faults onto those in society whom they’ve targeted in order to scapegoat.

  I was taught that the criminals came here first before they went to Australia after the end of the American revolution and shit going down in the Caribbean... either way Europe was never sending their best - they brought crime, prostitution...

  Yeah. I said over at Jezebel, this is a ridiculous waste of money. If your kid is stupid, just set up a trust fund like the other rich folks. Why buy them a degree they won’t ever use?

the funniest part about this is that poor white folks would rather believe that muslims are coming for them while government wants their guns and black people want to live for free and mexicans are bringing guns and drugs, meanwhile, even their kids are getting screwed by dumb, rich white folks. but they know someone who didn’t get into community college because of affirmative action.
