The Harvard discrimination suit provided unprecedented access to the data needed to ask if most black admits could still have made the cut had they been treated like whites, legacy preferences and all.

Results were highly informative: They could not.

They can also just publicly state their SAT/LSAT/IQ/etc score along with proof and put it on their resume and LinkedIn to make it clear that they are not AAmos. But I agree that any black who doesn’t speak up against AA fully deserves the stigma.

If admissions were purely based on merit, they could probably fill the entire class with Asian 4.0/1,600 violin virtuosos. Hard to see many Darnells competing against them.

Of course it isn't always the case. You're looking at huge selection bias in that you're looking at the legacies who paid millions to get in - which is far, far from the norm.
