[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone looking at a demographic chart can see that we will soon be a suburb of Asia if we choose to let that happen. Either accept that there is some need for racial diversity or don't, but don't be surprised if "merit-only" policies soon result in elite insitutiitions that are heavily dominated by Asians. (see thomas jefferson high)

So, you are saying we need to preserve "diversity" for ethno-phobic reasons and not because you want to uplift the downtrodden?

BTW, Asians here have NO affinity to their home countries (with the exception of few radical middle easterners (who consider themselves white anyways) and some communist-minded Chinese) and consider themselves to be American.  So, fear not.  We will not become a suburb of any Asian country.[/quote]

It’s funny that people here think Asians are “others” when you are right - asian Americans for the most part don’t give a shit about their ancestral lands.

Meanwhile, the majority of Jewish people no matter how far removed they are from Israel are very aware about Israeli issues.

Well... Jews historically were hounded out of countries, subject to periodic genocides and pogroms, heavily discriminated against for thousands of years, and are never allowed to ever forget that they are Jews, even in the US (which is the most "Jewish friendly" country in the world outside Israel). Israel is the *one* Jewish country in the world. And Israel has its own issues that keeps the Jewish identity of the country very much in the forefront of international news.

Asian Americans do not have the same type of historical experience or need to protect or preserve their heritage and ancestry and faith. The Asian American relationship with the "motherland" is similar to the European Americans. Yeah, family came from Germany, Ireland, England, Italy, but that was a couple generations ago and so what.

What a moron you are. You clearly haven't heard of the Chinese exclusion act or the racist Immigration act of 1924 or the Japanese internment camps or the denial of citizenship to Indians in the 1920's or all the freaking colonial nonsense the Asians were subjected to on their home countries.

Asians have suffered in different ways. And now Harvard wants to screw them over also in the name of some particular view of diversity that excludes them[/quote]
