You won't find it. It's all smoke and mirrors about 'equality for all'. It's equality for the chosen ones.

Supporting Asians fighting discrimination....... crickets.



What exactly do you want people to support? I've never seen an Asian-led protest movement outside schools or PTA conferences or just before education decisions are released.

You want support? Get out there and tell us where to show up.


This one thread is 64 pages of shaming Asians for speaking up about the discrimination they face.

It's been post after post telling Asians they are wrong, selfish, culturally inferior, unsocialized, cheaters, racist, justification of stereotypes and bias, get in the back of the line, that we don't support black people, etc.etc....

You think the only way to show support is if Asians start mass protesting on the streets? Are you that small-minded?

We see you. The REAL you.


Mostly it’s 64 pages of Asians insisting on having the last word and claiming they are the true victims of discrimination, all in an effort to avoid long overdue efforts to diversify the student body at a magnet school so that more than a handful of Black, Hispanic, and low-income kids get a shot there. And then they go off and hold insipid “vigils” for TJ and start other threads about TJ is now “dead.”

If you want others to have your back, you’re going to have to do a lot better than that, because the behavior of many Asians when it comes to TJ just reinforces every prior racist experience that some of us have had at the hands of Asians for years.


Total mischaracterization. I imagine most people don’t mind increasing opportunities for URMs.

We don’t agree that the best method for doing so involves turning a majority minority school into a majority white school.

The fact the school board doesn’t see this as a problem is concerning and speaks to how nobody cares about Asians. If we don’t speak up for ourselves, who will?


Clearly you don’t get it. Whether it’s willful ignorance, a lack of empathy, or plain stupidity is open to debate. Either way, you’ve lost this debate. Go hold another vigil if you want, no one else cares about your weaponized Asian tears at this point.

I care. You don't speak for all white people, you despicable person! Most people understand that discrimination against blacks is wrong and immoral, so why is it so hard to see that discrimination against Asians is just as wrong and immoral? Those who fail to see this just might be next in line to be the marginalized group.

Stop cyber-bullying. Discrimination is real. Sacrifices are real.

This is how you increase Hispanic and AA representation at T.J. Have, say, 10% ( and we can adjust these numbers) of students be from these backgrounds.
Call it affirmative action, whatever, but this is required.
That way, Whites don't benefit. This is important. They cannot benefit from this.
We can agree that they, the Whites, are privileged. They don't need handouts, and should be excluded.
As Asian Americans, we should all support this.
The 10% quota would mean that people who barely made it to TJ today would have a hard time getting in.
I have a suspicion what ethnicity the marginals are.

Don't try to shut down legitimate discussions in which people are using logic.
The only ones displaying willful ignorance and plain stupidity are people like you who resort to tired stereotypes when it's looking like you won't win a rational argument.

Vern Williams is the best educator Virginia's produced in decades. Here's what he has to say on the subject:

https://mathreasoning.com/news-writing/my-take-proposed-tj-admissions-process

"During my forty-plus years as an FCPS teacher I always made clear that I would never view my students through a racial or cultural lens. I am part of the old school crowd who still believes, as did Martin Luther King, that one should be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. The “One Fairfax” doctrine seems to suggest the opposite view. I sense that changing the TJ Admissions process is only the beginning. Every program for advanced/gifted students ranging from AP participation to AAP will be viewed through a racial lens instead of an academic/readiness lens. I feel that they will be diluted to the point of non-existence.

So what should be done to improve the admissions process instead of destroying it? Create a test that is prep proof (I could easily help with that) and truly test the higher level thinking skills needed for many of the advanced math and science concepts encountered at TJ. Keep the teacher recommendation as part of the process since middle school teachers truly know the capabilities, interests, and passions of their students. To suggest that they might show bias (as has been alleged by some) in their recommendations is an insult to every FCPS middle school teacher. Create a quality information/activities piece where students are asked to describe their successes as well as how they reacted to setbacks. I can discern between students who join Mathcounts or Science Olympiad in order to pad their resumes and those who join because they genuinely love math and science. Even if it means conducting interviews, the difference can be determined."

This motion is intended to address systemic issues that impact diversity at TJ,” Derenak Kaufax said. But she made clear it’s not proposed in lieu of changes to the admissions process there.

“It’s intended to address the system issues that impact TJ, not only TJ but also our AAP programmings,” Derenak Kaufax said.

Change is coming. The silent majority is speaking finally.

Beware this poster - the website he/she is referencing is BS and carries links like "Dr. Fauci Admitted He Lied About Masks And Now Wonders Why Americans Don’t Believe The Experts?" and "Tony Bobulinski Held Presser Saying That Joe Biden Knew About Hunter’s Business Deals-Implicated; Kamala Harris Also Appears Implicated"

If a group represents 70% of the student body at TJ despite being a much much smaller proportion of the population, I struggle to see how they are being discriminated against in that process. Whether they are discriminated against in general, elsewhere in society, is really not relevant. Many of us are.

Said the crybabies organizing vigils for the "death" of TJ? Dude, the argument has already taken place, and you have clearly lost it. This is just the internet bar where you come to cry into your beer.

Are you the poster with the weird website? We see you for the racist that you are. Beware people, this poster is just trying to stir up minority-on-minority resentment in preparation for the elections.

Ah, the moral superiority of the woke liberals. While bother engaging them? Let them worry about removing statues, renaming schools and crying for their pet minorities.

There is no minority on minority resentment. Asians don't resent black people. Speak for yourself. And brace yourself angry white man, for the day when YOU are the minority.

That poster isn't angry - his/her posts are very deliberate, they are intended to provoke and hurt. That website they posted isn't even American.

I don’t think there is discrimination against local Asians generally. I think the stuck-up, selfish, unwelcoming Asian community at TJ has a bad reputation and deservedly so. It’s tough to come into a diverse area, be in turn anti-Black, anti-Hispanic, and anti-white, and still expect others to hold you in high regard. There’s just a level of extreme self-centeredness and indifference to everyone else that you don’t find in most places.
