Affirmative Action Banned!

My state (Michigan) has wisely followed in the foosteps of California and banned racist/sexist affirmative action programs in Michigan, that would have discriminated against people based on nothing but their gender or the color of their skin, all in the name of promoting equality.  

It passed by a pretty wide margin 58% - 42% of the vote.. or, another way of looking at it: 

2,137,574  ---  YES on stopping AA
1,552,459  ---  NO on stopping AA

Hopefully this'll spread like wildfire throughout the rest of the states.

Considerring groups to be collective entities is an approximation. If you want to analyse the properties of groups of people you don't work with approximations you must work with individuals, how they think and the decisions they make when exposed to a set of stimuli. In fact thinking in terms of approximations and trying to induce hypothesis from them is a major heuristic fallacy explored by cognitive psychology.

You don't know the difference between behavioural and cognitive psychology otherwise you would have noticed I am using elements from both.
Sociology up until the 1900s was valid and scientific intertwined with political philosophy, economics and historical method. By this point sociology had increased in popularity and was various political groups began to interefere with it, rejecting it's rational scientific roots and generally fucking around finding fallacies they can use for their weird populist agendas. By the end of ww1 the majority of people claiming to be sociologists were in fact pseudo-scientists and whatever was left of rational side of sociology had migrated to the realms of economics, political science, analytic philosophy and psychology.
