Fascinating paper on where 6000 global elites went to college. Billionaires, CEOs, heads of state, central bankers, etc.
In a word: Harvard.
Fully 10% of global elites went to Harvard. Elite US schools are over-represented (23% IvyPlus), but nobody comes close to Harvard.

If you are white, and find yourself uncomfortable that black people created their own space on this app.
Let me remind you of what happened November 5th, an overwhelming amount of White people voted for Whiteness and White supremacy because they are scared America is becoming too diverse.

This all boils down to some Americans not knowing how their government work.

Right wing masculinity, so far as I can tell, is just to be a huge whiney baby about absolutely everything, and also to be extremely stupid.
