It's about undoing the damage that has been done by the cruel policies of the past that led to the systematic differences we see today. Disadvantaged groups need help to be able to catch up to the rest. Affirmative action is a temporary measure to bridge the gap. Because these things change very slowly and over generational time frames it will be a long time this is needed, however.

it really is very refreshing. I am oddly comforted by seeing there's still a fighting spirit among many internet users

Occam's razor says it's just one arrogant prick being an idiot and dragging everything down with him.
