People are debating whether this is on the up-and-up, or whether it’s a troll operation of some kind. Either way, it’s fairly hilarious.

Talk is not enough. Commit yourself towards taking action and making sacrifices to correct centuries of injustice. Open up spaces for Black and LatinX communities by refusing to send your kids to Ivy League and US News & World Report Top 50 schools and encourage friends, neighbors, and family members to do the same.

On the one hand, conning gullible wokies is always good for a lark. On the other hand, it’s their kids who would theoretically suffer. On the gripping hand, wokies abandoning the more expensive universities in favor of “underpriveledged” will lead to the “underpriveledged” getting burdened with *extraordinary* levels of student debt, coupled with either degrees of no particular value, or a failure to attain degrees because expensive educations tend to be difficult and demanding ones.

It might be interesting to see if anyone signs up, if the website actually publishes names, and if anyone carries through.
