Rich folk are also good at gaming all the other criteria (varsity sports, extracurricular achievements). "opportunity hoarding" I think is the term that's been used, or resume padding. It's also about being able to pay full tuition.
It's apparently based on this painting (with apollo at the table, and bachus in the foreground) https://musee-magnin.fr/en/node/19
But more importantly, even if it were based on the Last Supper, I don't think this performance would necessarily be mocking Christianity.

Privacy Badger has recently started blocking Twitter embedding for me (in the past few days). Does anyone know specifically what Twitter is doing to prompt this? For instance, see this thread on the Ukraine war on Daily Kos, which includes a lot of embedded Twitter posts https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/11/9/2204752/-Ukraine-Invasion-Day-625-RU-may-experience-redeployment-issues
I suspect the 'affirmative action' trend also reflects the difference in ambition/drive between the low-income high achievers and the >70% high achievers. The low income group is smaller than the >70% group (look at the size of the 'above average odds' regios and the 'below average odds' regions). This is because most of the people in the low income group will never even apply for a private college -- only the strongest applicants apply. But from the >70% group, basically every kid applies to college, and they are much more comfortable applying for 'reach' colleges (even if it costs their parents a few hundred extra dollars). They've also gamed their test scores.
