Really though, UCLA is as segregated and balkanized as a University can get. Lot's of asians that only hang out with asians, lots of white people that only hang out with white people, plenty of latinos who only hang out with latinos, and a few black people that only hang out with black people. They all justify it with some critical race theory bullshit where they claim that they are actually fighting racism by excluding everybody but people of their ethnicity. Its pretty much a microcosm of what LA is.
I want to leave LA SO MUCH
this is true everywhere.� they all brag about how diverse they are but in reality it is just a bunch of segregated cliques that just so happen to share the same environment.�
My experience has been different at other universities I have visited or attended. Most places have a certain degree of it, but UCLA's segregation and balkanization is fucking off the charts. Its pathetic and disgusting. I have pretty much always lived with "people of color" as roommates. Not because we were trying to prove something, its just happened that way. I got friends of all sorts of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, and its never mattered. I get to UCLA and its ALL about that. I felt weird tension when I'd talk to people of different ethnicities than me, and even weirder when white people would come up to me and assume I was a friend (nothing against white people, something against anybody who assumes shit about me based on race). On top of all of that, I have never been to a place where I have felt so self conscious about how people judge me for being a Jew.
Again, I have lived in a lot of places, including Chicago, which is supposedly the most segregated city in America, or was- though I still claim LA has a more brutal history in terms of segregation. I also went to undergrad at UC Santa Cruz, which is super-leftist. But they had a countercultural feel, and people were all about saying fuck gender, fuck religion, fuck culture, fuck sexuality. UCLA is all about gender, religion, culture, and sexuality being the most important thing.
Also, how did that dumb cunt not know that UCLA actually stands for University of Caucasians Living with Asians
