I’m so sick and tired of Asians complaining about unfairness in America. When I look around my UMC neighborhood, Asians seem to be doing quite well.

Something tells me that it would be FAR worse for Americans in Asia than it is for Asians in America.


Americans are treated very well in Asians countries.


I’m a white American and experienced overt racism in Asia.


White Americans are usually treated very well in Asian countries.
Maybe you didn't respect the local culture or something.

Asian countries like Korea/Japan/China tend to discriminate South East Asians.



Is it “respecting the local culture” to whine when not accepted to colleges?


We should all respect the decision by the US Supreme Court at least if you are a citizen of the US.




Respecting the law is completely different than respecting the culture.

I am pretty sure you know that people that are not of the specific Asian nationality are not treated well. Immigration is far stricter and Xenophobia is much worse than the US.


Culture can not override the law.

Maybe things have changed over the years. I distinctly remember when Yu Ying sent a group of students to China as part of its curriculum, a little Black boy was openly teased by Chinese women demanding that he(the little Black boy) show his tail. Maybe your definition of “very well” differs from most people which witnessed that exchange. It was disgusting to say the very least. Or maybe you just mean white people are treated very well in Asian countries. Which says a lot about you PP.


Black Americans would feel very safe pretty much anywhere in the countries like Korea/Japan, and even in China.

Can you say the same thing for an Asian in the US?

DP. Regardless of the decision, I will never respect this bootleg, compromised, lying, corrupt, perjured-filled Roberts’ court. I pray I live long enough to see a SCOTUS that can be respected again. It’s not this court.

What are you talking about??
The interviewers actually gave higher points to Asians students.
It was suddenly flipped big at the admissions committee.



We all know interviews are nearly irrelevant. Why do we expect the interview score to correlate with any other scoring? The AO says ‘unlikeable’ it’s based on essay or LOR and things the interviewer didn’t access. DP


Asians also get good LOR.
I don't agree with your wild guess, but people have different opinions, so that's why we have the court.
We'll see what the court says.



But to get into Harvard (or the like) with a 3.4% acceptance rate, you don't just need "good" LOR. You need exceptional, and the kid has no clue what those LOR really are.
Fact is there are many factors that go into college admissions, and when 96.6% are rejected, it's difficult to believe it was based on race alone.

Well unlike most people here, my family has roots in this country since the revolutionary war and ancestors who died in every war including Vietnam, and served in every war up to desert storm. Therefore I would tell those people to Fucck off.

Sure, but one thing should not be a factor is racial discrimination

My ancestors are a mixture of American Indians, African slaves and white slave-owners. What’s your point?

Impressive. Or do you mean 96% white, 2% Native American and 2% Black?
