[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Echoing the other posters but I’m Asian American and all Asian Americans I know who support AA have already gone to college/med school and don’t have kids. And I’d say it’s more of a 60/40 split of against/for AA. I agree the article is very insulting to Asian Americans, trying to paint us as having been tricked by conservatives. Many Asians, including immigrants, actually are proud and happy conservatives themselves. [/quote] It's not "insulting. " It's the truth. Asians are being used by conservative groups in an "us versus them" ploy. And if you REALLY look at the Harvard SCOTUS case, the alleged discrimination against Asians on personal ratings, while proven untrue, has [b] nothing [/b] to do with affirmative action itself. When affirmative action is banned next year, do personal ratings under holistic admissions get banned too? No. Because the personal ratings have nothing to do with race. I don't give a rat's ass if SFFA and the founder is 'using' Asians you imply are too dumb to know any better. I care about ending racial discrimination against Asians by any legal means necessary as soon as possible. Many Asians feel similarly. The SFFA is using apparent Asian " why aren't we getting into Harvard in higher percentages" grievance to ban race-conscious admissions.[/quote][/quote]
