[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And the Republicans are sweeping in to leverage Asian American discontent.  15 states’ AGs supporting Miyares.

Self inflicted D wound. [/quote]

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like Republicans are only going to chip away at the traditional Asian-American support for Democrats among certain segments - primarily some (not all) of the higher-income Indian, Chinese, and Korean-American voters.  If anything, it seems like more middle and low-income Vietnamese, Filipino, and Pakistani kids will probably get into TJ under the new policy, especially given that the size of the TJ classes were expanded to 550 students.

Keep hoping.  TJ is just one issue.  Asians have been subject to increased street crimes in the Pandemic years and graphic images of grandmothers being beaten up are etched in people’ minds.  The law and order message will resonate with Asians of all ethnicities as well.  [/quote]

“Law and order” messages are nearly always crafted with the intent of weaponizing racial animus against Black and Hispanic people.

So yes, it would not surprise me if those resonate with a certain segment of Asian-Americans given what you hear from parent groups at TJ.[/quote]

That is exactly the problem with you guys.

You don’t see that individual Asian -American families are hurting when speak from your pedestal of virtue.  For you individual families are collateral damage in your quest for equity and criminal justice.  Unfortunately impacted families have a voice and a say at the ballot box.  Keep trying to shame us - the era of the passive Asian American is over. [/quote]

You didn’t make a point there.[/quote]
