If you're going to wear something so incredibly inflammatory where you call yourself a racist, shouldn't you totally understand what you are saying?
How often do you wear this tshirt? Where do you wear it? Most people going to take the time, nor are they usually able if they're just walking past, to read all of your t-shirt. They just see that the person wearing it proudly claims to be a white racist.
I can see how that would dissuade girls from joining your chapter, for example. Not many people, regardless of their political persuasion, want to be associated with a proclaimed racist.
ETA: you go to a school called Southern Polytechnic State University. Had it not been for AA, you likely would've never gone to school there. It would've been much more difficult for women to break the barriers to entry at your school. And also following your AA reasoning, I guess a more qualified white male was denied admission so that you, an underqualified female, could take his spot because of AA.

I would like to applaud all the people participating in this thread who dont understand what sarcasm and satire is. Yeah. The shirt says white racist for the left. It's a jab at the left.
WHAT person of the left persuasian in their sane state of mind would actually wear a shirt that called themselves a racist? Obviously, the "joke" is too hard for you to understand, and if you don't "get it" I cant explain it any better that what I've already attempted. It's a JOKE people. It's making fun of the obviously major differences between the left and right ways of thinking. Imagine if a black person (of the left, of course) read the shirt: "...for the left." That black person would probably think: "Wait a minute, I'm a black liberal, and this shirt is saying that white people of liberal persuasian are racist. GRRR!!!!" Get a clue and get a grip, it's a joke.
For your information, I dont actually wear it in public. Hell, I'd get shot if I did. I usually wear it in the privacy of my own home, or in a setting wear I know the people around me think the same thing. I dont wear it to school for that reason miss-know-it-all. I dont need to explain my reasoning to you or anybody else, I think the liberal way of thinking is wrong. I think the shirt is hysterical. But at the same time, I use common sense to realize "hmm, it's probably not a good idea for me to wear this at school." kddani, do you feel proud now? Bashing another organization just because you dont like
my beliefs? You dont have to be ugly, but if thats the only way you can get your point across, then good for you.
As far as the AA thing goes - quite frankly, I dont care if affirmative action is the way women were able to initially start going to school there. I dont care. You're reasoning is right - that some qualified white male could have been turned down based on the fact that I'm a woman. But guess what? I met, and exceeded the minimum requirements academically. I disagree with AA because I think that acceptance, or job offers, and everything else related should be based on your skills, and qualifications. Why do you think the high school exit exams are 100% anonymous? You have a unique ID that doesnt state anything about your name age sex and race, they grade the tests and then look up who the ID belongs to and send the results. Thats how it should work. Completely anonymous applications, make the decisions and find out the person it belongs to. And even with that method, I STILL would have made it in to SPSU, because I met at least the minimum requirements to be accepted without having to have a waiver granted.
