[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All this “casual racism” on this thread makes me sick to my stomach  Asian kids aren’t robots—that’s just a narrative that other ethnic groups have devised to make themselves feel better when their kids are outperformed (as someone pointed out upthread, people used those same type of derogatory comments when talking about Jews at Harvard 50 years ago.)   
I hope that all of you parents spewing bile about Asians on this thread read this story about Peter Wang who at the age of 15 was killed trying to help classmates escape from the Parkland massacre gunman at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.  At age 15 he had more character than any of you on this thread ever will.

When the shooting started at the high school in Parkland, the Brooklyn NY born cadet yanked open a door that allowed dozens of classmates, teachers and staffers to escape, officials said. But as he stood at his post in his JROTC uniform and held the door open, Wang was shot and killed — one of the 17 students and staffers who died in the school that day.

+1  All you people calling Asians robots should be ashamed of yourself.  Think back to the racist insults that are hurled at whatever ethnicity you are and try to have some compassion.[/quote]
