UPenn Law Professor Amy Wax: US "better off with fewer Asians and less Asian immigration"

Um, because I listened to the entire interview and she never said the US should have fewer Asians. She said the US should not have more Asians -- or any other immigrants. (She was responding to the interviewer's statement that Asian immigrants in particular are a net positive for America.)

I think she is very misguided, but not bigoted.

I linked to her written follow up in the first post of this thread. An exact quote from that response is:

"I think the United States is better off with fewer Asians and less Asian immigration."

That is a bigoted statement.

Asians vote Republicans and some vote Democratic. Some of them are conservative and some are liberals. Some are bigoted themselves. So it is incorrect to generalize Asians and form a policy position based on biased generalizations. What I find offensive is Amy Wax’s generalization that Asians are culturally less supportive of democracy, cleanliness, and other evolved human behaviors! She basically makes a veiled attempt in promoting how whites are culturally superior to nonwhites! That is racist!

As for my co-Asians who is so against affirmative actions, please open your eyes. You are being pitted against other minorities by the White conservatives so that you do not question their strongholds in the elite Universities. While you are busy fighting against the selection of a few (highly deserving) non-Asian
minority students, you miss fighting against the unfairness of legacy admissions which inherently predominant by Whites. If you really care about meritocracy you need to rally against legacy admission and not affirmative actions. Stop being played!

Maybe they don’t really care about meritocracy, maybe they don’t have a problem with the majority of “non-meritorious” admissions being legacy admissions because ultimately they want to reap the benefits that gaining access to those of a much higher social class would confer.

At the root of all of this is greed and entitlement. No group is immune from wanting more, and wanting it at the expense of exclusion of others that they perceive to be less powerful, less worthy, less deserving, or whom they view as having nothing of value to exploit.

As if the golden key to wealth and power Is proximity to whiteness.

https://glennloury.substack.com/p/amy-wax-redux

Numbers matter, a lot! In the case of Asians in the U.S., the overwhelming majority vote Democratic. In my opinion, the Democratic Party is a pernicious influence and force in our country today. It advocates for “wokeness,” demands equal outcomes despite clear individual and group differences in talent, ability, and drive, mindlessly valorizes blacks (the group most responsible for anti-Asian violence) regardless of behavior or self-inflicted wounds, sneers at traditional family forms, undermines and disparages the advantages of personal responsibility, hard work, and accountability, and attacks the meritocracy.

...

Maybe it’s just that Democrats love open borders, and Asians want more Asians here. Perhaps they (and especially their distaff element) are just mesmerized by the feel-good cult of “diversity.” I don’t know the answer. But as long as most Asians support Democrats and help to advance their positions, I think the United States is better off with fewer Asians and less Asian immigration. There needs to be more focus on people who are already here, and especially the core (and neglected) “legacy” population, and a push to return to traditional concepts and institutions and Charles Murray’s “American Creed.”

I am shocked, shocked I say, that this person would find common ground with Enoch Powell and Charles Murray. It is interesting that her main complaint is that Asians support Democrats. Is anyone surprised that Asians don't flock to a party with members such as Wax?

If we construct a legal syllogism from these paragraphs, wouldn't it be something like:

1) The US would be better off with fewer Democrats,
2) The overwhelming majority of Asian Americans and Asian immigrants vote for Democrats,
3) Therefore, the US would be better off with fewer Asian Americans and less Asian immigration?

Its targeting Asian Americans and immigrants for being (per her) Democratic-partisans as Americans, rather than targeting a cultural or immutable characteristic of being Asian. It could be a partisan screed rather than a racial screed. Having said that, it seems an ill-advised line of argument to make in an environment when identity is political.

I'm an Asian American who is also a Republican. I don't believe her views represent the mainstream in the Republican party. The existence of people like her doesn't change my preference for political positions aligned with classical liberalism, which currently is the Republican party. There are terrible people who call themselves Republicans and I am not going to abandon my values just because there are some bad people who hold abhorrent views also have these same values.

Can I just say...a party that doesn't cancel a President or any leadership that repeatedly stokes hate by referring to a 'K*ng Flu virus' or 'China virus' is one that represents the mainstream in the Republican party. You can't have it both ways, you either see this anti-Asian rhetoric solely in GOP leadership or you don't. Vote for them or don't. But don't complain when more anti-asian policies and rhetoric are espoused.

It's not having it both ways for me to support the parts of Republican party platform I agree with even though there are terrible people in the party. I'll note that Republican is the party that is trying to put in place a merit-based immigration system, one which will predominantly benefit Asian Americans. Democrats are fighting tooth and nail against such a merit-based system.

Republicans, led by Trump, are also the ones who put in place a complete and total visa ban, which predominantly discriminated against Asian Americans. I mean sure you can support the GOP just say you don't care if or when any racist policies come forth and are announced straight from the microphones at the White House and affect people who look like you.

I'm smart enough to know that the visa ban was done to limit international travel due to COVID. It was not aimed at Asians, Asians just felt a significant impact. The same could be said of professional sports game ban against African Americans, although it would be foolish to claim that such a ban was racist against AAs. The only real actual racist policy I know of are from Democrats who support affirmative action to discriminate against Asians based on the color of our skin. They defend this practice all the way to the supreme court.

Look, if you are so concerned about the welfare of Asian immigrants, join the Republicans in calling for merit-based immigration system, which will predominantly benefit south and east Asians.

Let's play this out. Let's say that the US implements a merit based system, which leads to a large up tick in Asian immigrants. Do you think she and the rest of the Rs would be happy about that? Sersiously? Asian Americans vote D. You think white Rs would want more Dems? They may talk about a "merit" system, but once that cat is out of the bag, they will try to find ways to limit Asian influence.

I'll say it again.. Rs are using Asian Americans as a convenience. They treat Asian Americans as a patsy, like the model minority myth.

Well, lets arrive at our decision based on facts. Republican party tried to get Affirmative Action banned, Democrats are protecting it in court. Republicans want a merit-based immigration system, which we all know will benefit Asians. Democrats wants to hold on to the lottery system in the name of diversity. I'd say that's pretty clear indication which party is better for Asians.

Nobody uses me unless I let them. I'm my own person with my own ideas. You can keep telling me that Republicans are anti-Asian but the evidence says otherwise. You have nothing to offer but fear.

You are letting Rs use you as a convenience simply by supporting Rs.

Why do you think 70% of uneducated white males are Rs?
Why do you think the more educated you are, the more you tend to vote Dem, which is also why this racist prof. wants to limit Asian immigration.
Why do the majority of Asian Americans vote Dem? CA voted to do away with affirmative action with Prop 209. Affirmative action in university admissions is not legal. Race can be one factor, but quotas and affirmative action are not legal. And yet, Asian Americans still vote Dem. Why is that?

People without a college degree are not the same as uneducated. It's elitist for you to believe otherwise. People become educated in a variety of ways, even modern elite institutions realize this. Yet there is this pervasive condescending attitude from the left that a piece of credential is the arbiter of who is educated. I will also point out that people with a college degree are in the minority, and that's including associate degrees which I suspect most Democrats wouldn't accept as a qualification for being "educated". Only about a third of the country has a Bachelors's degree, and the current ratio of female to male college enrollment is about 3:2. Given that women are predisposed to being liberal in their ideas, tend to get degrees in the arts which reinforce those left-leaning tendencies, it's simply a natural fact that the majority of those with a Bachelors's degree are going to be Democrats. But lest you think that Democrats somehow enjoy exclusivity among the educated, consider the fact that Pilots, Dentists, Surgeons are all professions that lean Republican. Are these people uneducated in your mind?

The reason why most Asians vote Democrat is that most Asians don't get involved in American politics. Most of us sit on the sidelines and observe. We are a people who don't complain much and usually take our challenges and roll with it rather than speak up. Due to this lack of engagement, most of us believe the claim by Democrats that Republicans are racists. Just as a normal person doesn't go around town shouting to everyone "I'm not a racist!", Republicans don't go around shouting that either. So the finger stabbing by the Democrats sticks. However, some Asians are waking up to the BS, and I see this in all Asian communities. Indians want a merit-based immigration system to clear the huge backlog they are facing. Chinese parents are angry about the Affirmative Action programs that discriminate against their kids, etc. I'm not saying that Asians are going to start voting Republican in the next election cycle, but every tide starts with a small ripple. I hope for my fellow Asian Americans to become more aware of their adoptive country, to be more engaged in the direction of our nation's politics because it's the only way that we can ensure that the efforts we've made to provide our children with a bright future is not wasted away.

I’m confused. I thought Asians where American. So, why is it “American politics” as opposed to national politics? Many Asians have said that the foreigner trope has often been used for racist depictions, but your argument is relying on that premise in some way. While I think Wax has gone about it in a ham fisted way, and don’t always agree with her conclusion, all I took away from her article is that there are fundamental/underlying differences Asians exhibit. And based off your comments, that seems to be true. I think the real issue, is whether it is ultimately of any consequence or if thats a dog whistle. I think its a dog whistle.

As an Asian American neither partly particularly appeals to me.

I'm not a fan of the frequent denial of science on the Republican side, and what happened on 1/6 was abhorrent.
But at least they believe in the concept of a meritocracy, as imperfect as it may be.

Democrats seem more rational overall, but Ds repeatedly treat Asians like second class citizens. I feel like I've heard more racism and stereotyping coming from Democrats which is quite ironic. The whole concept of Asians being white adjacent or white supremacists is like wtf.

Yet, Democrats seem more baffled when Asians don't show them loyalty. Well, when's the last time you really celebrated Asian American success? Should it be a surprise many Asians are having second thoughts?

What are you talking about? GOP does not believe in meritocracy unless they are using the word to divide the minority. They believe in White supremacy without any merit. GOP has been the party that is proud of anti-intellectualism. They advertise education as an elitism. They want Asians to fight with Blacks and other POC for limited opportunities so that we stay blinded and not question their hold on the rest of the opportunities. Wake up!

As for your comments about Democrats, please provide examples. I do not believe your opinion is rooted in evidence.

Last I checked, Democrats are the ones pushing the idea that meritocracy is a myth. While it's not perfect, there are many immigrants who have made a better life for themselves through hard work and determination. That includes black immigrants. Again, it's not perfect by any means, but immigrants and children of immigrants seem to do okay.

Many progressives, on the other hand, want to say that a meritocracy doesn't exist and that Asians are somehow white adjacent or white supremacists.

That doesn't sound offensive and racist?

The GOP aren't the ones trying to banish standardized tests, repeal Prop 209, and reform magnet schools like TJ, Lowell, and Stuyvesant.

Pop into any thread about these school issues and see how many people accuse Asians of basically being undeserving of their spots at these magnet schools. There are too many Asians, so they must be cheating. There are too many Asians, so they must not be gifted. There are too many Asians, so the school must be toxic. It's mostly Democrats that are lobbing those accusations.

Then you have the clear disrespect exhibited by school boards toward Asians:

Incredibly racist, right? You'd be surprised how neutral the media was on this issue and how many New Yorkers defended the cartoonist.

Also, Boston just elected it's first Asian American mayor. Should be great, right? Here's the headline of one of the first articles published afterward: "Why Boston will need to wait longer for its 1st elected Black mayor." https://www.npr.org/2021/11/16/1055972179/boston-first-black-mayor

Again, when is the last time Democrats celebrated Asian American success? Democrats seem to want to punch Asians down and then tell them it's good for them.

I think that it is notable that the current Vice President -- a Democrat -- is half Asian. There are currently two US Senators of Asian heritage -- both Democrats. There are currently 16 House members of Asian decent, all but two of whom are Democrats. So, Democrats seem to be celebrating Asian Americans fairly well at the polls.

+1 You’re not White, you will never be White. White supremacy applies to you, too, guys. White supremacy was set up to favor Whites, end of story. Not model Asians, not anyone else. You will never be accepted in the club any more than White women are in the club - a token, here or there, but not of the club.

Given in the recent VA election, Rs elected a white man, a black woman, and a Cuban man, I don’t know how these statements can hold. They were highly supported by conservatives.

That doesn’t mean they wouldn’t throw them under the bus in a heartbeat. It doesn’t mean they’re in the club. Diamond and Silk are also highly supported by conservatives; it doesn’t mean they think those two women are people entitled to full rights. But hey if Republican minorities feel that the practices of the GOP are acceptable and want to let themselves be used, they’re welcome to throw away their votes.

I still don't get this idea that Asian Republicans are being "used". How exactly am I being used, as an Asian American who is also a Republican? My fellow republicans are fighting to protect the ideals of classical liberalism - not all of them, but most. They are also trying to fight against the systemic racist policy that is Affirmative Action. They are trying to implement merit-based immigration, which will help fellow Asians - such as the wonderful student we hosted over Christmas who ponders what his life would be if he did not get a spot in the lottery. He is studying data analytics and would love to apply his abilities in the US than back in Asia. It was such a difficult conversation to have with him, to sense the genuine desire, the ability to do good in society, but can't because of the luck of the draw.

On the other side, we have people like Ted Liu who has stated "I support affirmative action. I also support the use of race in college admissions."

Gee, such a tough choice.

Gee, you are blind to your own words.

You don't embrace or agree with every R or their policies, but you think ALL Dems agree with ALL Dem policies? I stated upthread, CA passed Prop 209. Do you know what that is? A liberal state passed a law that prevented universities there from using race as a factor. So, you see, not all liberals agree with affirmative action.

Tell your friend who ponders what his life would be like if he doesn't get in by lottery that he'll figure it out as milions of other people do. The former first lady came here on an HlB as "extraordinary talent" -- snort. Gimme a break. Like the US doesn't have enough models so we had to import them? There are thousands of other would be models around the world who would love an HlB visa to the US. Why shouldn't they have gotten one instead of Melania, who isn't even all that great looking and only modeled in catalogs and men's magazine in soft porn photos.

My family came here via family connections, as did thousands upon thousands of others, white, black, brown, etc.. I suppose to you that should never have happened, right?

Most Asian Americans realize that the R party today aren't supportive of Asian immigrants, nor are they really all that supportive of Asian Americans in general. They only seem to support merit based immigration as a way to exclude certain demographics. As Trump stated, why can't we import more Norwegians rather than people from sh1thole countrles? You think he wants more Chinese or Indians? Sure, he wants rich people because he's an elitist. He doesn't want an HlB Chinese or Indian tech worker, that's for sure.

You are being used as a patsy. Do you know what that means? You are convient for them when they want your support, but once they get what they want, they will turn on you.

We saw Trump do the same thing to people who supported him but didn't agree with everything he said or did. He would turn on them in a heartbeat. That's how Rs operate now.

Do you think the vast majority of Asian Americans are blind and dumb to vote Dem, and only the select few like you are smart and see the light and so you vote R? Ok, sure. If that makes you feel better.

Stop making stuff up. I never said that. I applaud CA's ban on affirmative action but they tried to repeal it and failed. It was on the ballot. And none of this change the fact that affirmative action is alive and well supported in other areas of the county, backed by Democrats who spend money defending it in court, with the support of Asian politicians like Ted Liu. This is sickening. They are racist and proud of it. Not all Democrats, but it is a broadly supported position among Democrats.

You keep ignoring facts placed right in front of you, and just go on repeating the same tired biased opinions based on your personal feelings. I am not going to repeat myself for your benefit. Enjoy supporting affirmative action.

yes, the repeal of 209 failed because LIBERALs didn't want to overturn it.

You also ignore facts placed right in front of you, my friend. You ignored everything I wrote about, and even your response to 209 repeal shows that not all liberals support affirmative action.

You are in the minority right now. Majority of Asian Americans, even the educated ones, don't support Rs these days. Maybe if they swing back to the moderate days Asian Americans might go back. Of course, if the Dem party swings way too left, you might see more Asian Americans becoming Independent and voting whoever is the least extreme.

And once you do finally get your degrees and apply, you're told you're not diverse enough for the DEI committees who'd rather hire a less qualified person of a different race because, at the end of the day, Asians really don't count as people of color.

Work hard, study hard, start businesses, get ahead in life = you're now all told it's just white supremacy. Meritocracy apparently is racist

You stretch yourself to buy a house in a top rated school district only to be rezoned for a lower ranked school in the name of equity, and when you protest, you're accused of white supremacy.

Most of the Asian-American hate crimes were committed by non-whites, but that apparently doesn't matter. It's still white supremacy.

So what do you do: keep voting for the Democrats, who are the face of the woke progressive left and keep enforcing these double standards on the Asian Americans.

Which, I suppose, is Amy Wax's point. If Asian Americans aren't willing to stand up for themselves, then what's the point in having more Asian Americans to blindly vote for the political party that judges and belittles and sneers at them at every possible opportunity while grabbing all their votes?

The Republicans are just less hypocritical than the Democrats because the Democrats don't practice what they preach while the Republicans are fairly consistent on one thing: curbing immigration.

I'm asian and I agree with this.
