The Day the Asians Turned White

I’ll sum up Roseann Liu’s essay as briefly as I can: “Asian-Americans, you’re doing too well. For ****’s sake, stop excelling in education, you’re making the blacks and browns look bad. It’s time to surrender some of that academic achievement and give up your seat at the table.”

Literally, the polar opposite of tiger momming.

In her view, “Asian, black and Latino solidarity should come first,” ahead of “hard work and merit” on the part of Asian students. Now, typically, when a leftist is arguing for affirmative-action-type nonsense, they argue that there is no such thing as merit, that there is no meritocracy. Whites get what they have because of privilege, nepotism, and oppression. But Liu can’t make that case for American Asians. She’s forced to admit that merit doesexist, and therefore she’s forced to be uncharacteristically honest (for a leftist academic) and tell Asian students that their hard work and merit, which are real, must be put aside in the name of helping people of color who eschew such hard work and merit.

Merit is the standard Americans strive for.

The left would prefer lowered, "fair" outcomes.

Wakanda can't be far off.

 

One of the nice things about the Trump era is that leftists are finally coming out of the Socialist and Marxist closet and admitting not only what they are but what the heart, core, and soul of both their ideology and their goals for this nation really are and really have been all along WITH the generally gormless help of useful idiot liberals. Sweet! I hope that the average American-Asian tells these Socialist/Marxist Asian 'spokespeople' to . . . get . . . stuffed.

 

From everything Ive heard about Asians, they are very right leaning in politics and social values, the majority vote democrat cause they live in liberal cities and vote to get along. Asians are the best immigrants of the world cause they typically assimilate the best and push them selves to be better than their peers. If they ever mover to a more rural area, they probably be less stressed because they wouldn't have to fake their core values for acceptance.

 

Have you ever stopped to think that the reason liberal cities tend to be Democratic is because the people are liberal. That includes Asians. Here in Portland there is a sizable Asian population, a lot of Koreans and Chinese. To they tend to be just as liberal as everyone else.

The thing about conservatism is that it implies homogeneity and conformity, the last thing second and third generation Asian immigrants want.

However, liberalism celebrates diversity. It makes it rather easy for an Asian woman to seamlessly go from her traditional parents, and then go hang out with the local culture. All without the racism that is all too common in conservative areas.

 

Its the left thats telling them to conform.

Yesterday, I posted a thread where they were told by the left to stop complaining about affirmative action or they would be called white. Bannanas they called em-yellow on the outside and white on the inside.

Yeah, that and people get promised a lot of freebees.

Yeah, following the laws is a rough deal.

Don't know what "racism" you are talking about. Stopping people from entering a certain school or being promoted in public sectors based on skin color seems pretty racist to me. Also, all the cries of "racist cops" for BLM to protest come from liberal areas. Maybe when the democrats were in charge of those areas where racism was rampant in early 1960s and before was there a problem, but that stereo type is long gone as with the democrat politicians. Rural republican areas are pretty safe places for minorities now a days. Definitely less crime and more opportunities for everyone.

 

There was a time, when there were no whites, anywhere on Earth. Then about 42,000 years ago there was a group of nomadic Asians who circled the globe on the southern edge of the ice cap. Around the area of the Baltic Sea, a group of these Asians, for an unknown reason, began to evolve into white people.

They mostly stayed there until the end of the ice age, where they filled in, in the thawing lands of Scandinavia, and into what is now Russia. The rest of Europe remained brown, (Asian) although blue eyes were very common in central Europe. Around 4000 years ago these whites (light colored skin, blonde hair, blue eyes, taller) began to migrate into places like Germany and Scotland. Slowly whiteness began to spread across Europe. At the time of the Roman empire, the people of the Mediterranean were mostly lightly dark skinned with brown hair and eyes, not much different than the Asians of the Middle East. The Germanic tribes they battled were blonde haired, blue eyed whites.

One of the reasons that the Romans could not defeat the Germanic tribes, was because the Germans were larger, and most likely more intelligent, and more ferocious. In hand to hand combat, the Romans were at a clear disadvantage.

After Rome fell, the people of the north began raids into Europe, looting their way to wealth, which they used to enrich their homelands and set up trading routes. In the process, many settled into Europe, speeding up the whitening of Europe. That is how Asians turned into whites.

 

The disconnect we are witnessing here is the conflict between the ability to control and manipulate and the public stance for equality and improvement.

Deep at the core of liberalism there isn't an expectation of improvement. Improving actually requires effort, and improvement. Liberal policy isn't there to induce improvement, it's there to ensure stratification and dependence. So, when a segment of the group that isn't supposed to be improving does, well, that's just competition for the plantation management which is then unacceptable. Why? Because as the improvement allows better access, those improving find the ceiling to be too limiting, and thus won't continue to support the plantation management as it interferes with their ability to be economically mobile.

Liberal elites don't want an economically improving society. They want dependence. Without it, they are unable to continue dictating to the society and enforcing their version of dependence.

 

You'd be a fool to think that humans don't rely on someone else for help in their existence in modern society.

 

no not really. Cities aren't really liberal there tends to be a lot more regulations and codes of Conduct in cities. That would be the opposite of liberal.

I think you mean to say they tend to be more left. And the reason why that is is because it's easier to live in the city you don't have to work really hard to find grocery stores people who repair vehicles and various other things because there are more people there. It makes it easier to be stupid and lazy. It also makes it easier to be a criminal.

For the most part that seems to be the Democrat voting base.

Sixth and Seventh Generation perhaps but they're no different than any other American.

no you're wrong a Society implies homogeneity and conformity. That's how it's considered as Society. This goes back thousands of years. A tribe humans couldn't exist if they were Multicultural. The same goes for a society now.

no liberalism is the idea that people should be free. That doesn't have anything to do with the creation of diversity. Diversity is created by Nature.

It wasn't liberalism that caused a forest to have a random assortment of different species.

no wrong again. Existing within a different culture makes it impossible to hold on to a different cultural value. A pair of parents you cannot have a separate culture within a culture. It doesn't work that way that's not how Society operates.

In all reality you're applying a Trope to a race. Asian people have traditional parents. And the more you see them as alien or different or belonging to a different culture the more racist you come off.

Physical appearance i.e. race has s*** to do with culture just suggest otherwise is to be racist.

I don't know how a person could be more wrong about everything in a post then you are here. It makes me wonder if you truly believe this tripe or if you're just regurgitating it like a child forced to say prayers they don't understand.

 

But then conservatives tend to be okay if their cops are a little on the racist side, a little on the brutal side.

I remember traveling cross country one time, across the South. The elder Bush was President. There was this place that advertised, "Pizza Beer Rock-n-Roll". We figured it had to be a good place to stop.

We walked inside and waited a bit. No one seemed to be there to seat us, so we sat at an empty table. It took a long time to get a waitress to come over, giving me plenty of time to check out the place. Most noticeable was that seemingly all the men were wearing cowboy hats, as if their mothers had never taught them that a gentleman always removes his hat when indoors.


There was country music playing on the juke box. I always wondered why I never liked Country music. It isn't much different from Rock, I even played in a Country Rock band for a bit, the major chords making it easy to improvise over. But as I listened, I began to see that the words spoke to a world that I couldn't relate to.

There was four of us. I, and my friend, had hair to our shoulders. One of the women was Native American. The other had her hair dyed so blonde it was practically white. She wore an all white dress with flowing veils.

We eventually got a waitress to come over. "I don't know what ya' all sittin' here fo. I ain't gonna serve ya' all."

Same trip, and we stopped to make a phone call. This was before cell phones. Kind of the same situation. All the men were wearing cowboy hats and country music playing on the juke box. I took maybe two steps inside and the bartender, says to me, "We don't serve your kind in here." I told him I only needed to use the phone. He pointed to the corner saying, "Make it quick." As I made my call and until I left, suspicious eyes watched my every move. I started to see why so many songs referenced tucking one's hair under one's hat.

 

What is it with people trying to get minority groups to fight one another?

Anyway, many people have AA all wrong. Affirmative Action in a twisted way has actually secured places for 'whites.' When Affirmative Action is banned, white enrollment falls drastically and Asian enrollment shoots up. Many non-Asian minorities are too poor to even take elite educational spots. And if they manage, it's not enough to merit the amount of bitching and complaining of them supposedly taking all these elite seats.

Also, AA based on race has been banned where it counts already. Schools are using holistic criteria to determine who they want in their schools. And guess who runs these elite schools. It sure as hell isn't any minorities. For those who know better, we know that this is actually a fight between so called whites and Asians.

 

Damn. You must have a herd mentality to think that everyone is under control as you are.

 

Have you tried looking into a mirror?

 

Why is it that you insist on pretending liberals are other than they are? Is it necessary for you to bond with your group? What kind of satisfaction do you get out of trash talking? Is it a masculine thing? Is it that you have come to so hate liberals, that you'll say anything to put them in a bad light?
I'm just wondering, as you never say anything truthful about liberals, and everything you say is mostly derogative.

Here is something you can chew on, or, as is your style, come back with some twisted dig at liberals.

The fastest growing state economy has been Washington. Lead by Amazon, which is led by liberal leaning Jeff Bezos, now the wealthiest man in world, just beating out the founder of Washington's other economic engine, Microsoft, the liberal leaning Bill Gates. Rounding out third is the liberal leaning Warren Buffet, who put Nebraska on the map.

For the past decade it had been the tech industry that has had the economic growth of any sector. An industry overwhelmingly dominated by liberals.

Your assertion that liberals don't want an improving economy doesn't hold up to facts on the ground. In other words it is a lie. Especially when the most poverty is in the Bible Belt, where conservative ideology rules supreme.

 

Hmm... well let's see. Amazon, MSFT, and Buffet... I suppose that it just never occurred to you what each of those platforms, or what mr Buffett's methods are, did it? How many times will Amazon be censured for being predatory, monopolistic, and otherwise the most destructive force to self sustained small business in the world? Similarly, how many times has MSFT been taken to court for its predatory, monopolistic practices, sued by countless governments and frankly the bane of technology security for decades? And then you mention Warren, who's Berkshire Hathaway/GEICO orgs have preyed on the most defenseless of us...

I'm guessing you've never thought about this. I would ask this question though. Are Jeff and Bill liberal because they are, or are they liberal because it's good public relations to show how much they can donate to the plantation to keep the mob from tearing them down? And isn't the more likely to happen when the mob isn't placated in some way? When it comes down to it, liberals aren't the egalitarian mob, they are the cake eaters terrified that any day now the mob will come for them.

 

We really just need a fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage and unemployment compensation for simply being unemployed in our at-will employment States. A form of market based equality and equilibrium.

 

The nature of human evolution. As is the formation of towns, cities, and nations, along with the military means to defend the resulting culture and ideals. It's not about color, or shape. That much has been proven. It's about values and ideals.

Nothing will ever change that.

 

Well yes but I'm a hundred percent right on this.

Everything in your post you said was wrong I explained why it was wrong. You didn't address any of it because you're wrong and you know you're wrong you can't address it without looking foolish.

So you pull this "I'm rubber you're glue" nonsense, very mature by the way.

 

I am amazed at the deep cultural knowledge of asians displayed by our white righties in this thread.

Dunning Kruger reigns supreme.

 

The lowered expectations and racism of the left has got to stop.

 

Its almost like when leftist and SJWs "know" so much of the black communities huh?

 

Leftists are telling Asians to get in line.

Let's make it $75.00 an hour. That's even better to fight poverty.

 

Dude you make the same comment in pretty much every post.

It has nothing to do with the topic.
