We are discriminating against us citizens that are not deemed he right race now? You racist. Why don't you go back on a boat to where your ancestors came from. I for one thing think it ridiculous an Asian kid with high scores and excellent extracurriculars should not get into a top school because of the color of his or her skin. |
Jews were discriminated against until they gained political influence.
Once Asian Americans gain more influence economically and politically, which they will because they are a successful minority, the tides will change. |
The low income applicant should be given monetary advantages. Not a lowered criteria for admission. I do not want my surgeon to have gone to medical school on a "quota". |
Good - Brown grad. |
You see why people keep saying that Trump supporters are racist and/or dumb? |
Highly Doubtful. Jews have amazing group solidarity, especially on Jewish social rights issues. Asians have zero group solidarity. What has Akaka, inouye, hirono, jindal, Haley, bharara, tanden, katyal, Srinivasan, nooyi,Nadella, pichai said or done anything about this? Zero. Nothing. Nada. You know that the head of the civil rights division at doj is an Asian American, yes? She hasn't done shit about it either. Asians are their own worst enemies on this issue. |
Her boss (AG) is black. |
At some point, some Hispanic democrats in California tried to reintroduce affirmative action into colleges. The Asian American community rallied together and got the proposal revoked. Californian democrats know not even to come near this issue for awhile. The fact that a 100 organizations are working on this says a lot. At the end of the day it's an issue that impacts their children regardless of what type of Asian. You can be sure the tiger moms will be on it since education is viewed of the upmost importance. |
Asians also are a victim of their own success, unfortunately. Want the American dream? Only if you don't take it away from the "real" Americans. |
OP is salivating and dripping at the fangs. This will inevitably turn into 40 pages of affirmative action and minority bashing. Think I'll head over to the Food forum.
Enjoy yourselves. |
It's scary to read some of your comments and know how you REALLY feel about me, an Asian American. So many ignorant, scared racists among you. |
You mean like neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson? Crazed politics aside, you and nobody else can take away his talent. |
I'm doubtful. Jews understand the importance of public service, policy advocacy, lobbying, etc. Asians don't. That's why Asians with juice, like the ones I mentioned haven't done anything on the issue. Prop 209 defense was a grassroots thing. The people i listed probably would've supported overturned prop 209 if they had carte Blanche to do so. Nadella and pichai will bend over backwards for jesse Jackson and the URM hustlers every time they come out west to bitch about URMs in large cap tech but wouldn't ever in a million years say anything on this matter. That's the difference between the Jewish community and Asian one. |
And I'll bet it would be even scarier what you really think of African-Americans and Hispanics. |
How did Jews successfully fight the quotas then? |
