    The asian you've known are annectotal. And the vast majority of asians, immigrant or not are poor, working class like the rest of the world. The diamond shines brightly when mixed with pebbles, but there are way more pebbles than diamonds.

    It is unreal, because you just made it up.

    Then your claim that there can't be discrimination against Asians because of their average incomes is false.

    That's not spelling, it's grammar. And "its" a contraction, you should have used an apostrophe.

    I never said there cannot be discrimination against Asians. I even gave examples.

    Amazing how dishonest the lib-democrat arguments are. So democrats have long argued that black failure in America is due to their own behavior, culture and lack of talent? Bullcrap! The lib argument is that blacks fail only because whites discriminate against them.

    I know this is a hard thread for libocrats. It destroys your bullcrap ideology on race. White racism and oppression has not kept people in this country from success. It is a lie! There are millions of people of color who are doing better than whites!

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_groups_in_the_United_States_by_household_income

    White Americans 65,902
    Ghanaian Americans: $69,021[12]
    Nigerian Americans: $68,658[12]

    Immigrants from Ghana and Nigeria have household incomes HIGHER than that of whites. So stop lying that blacks cannot succeed. Also stop the lie that whites are privileged.

    You worship a sick cancerous false ideology that is based on hate.

    By the way to answer another confused poster the source of this data from the link I'm using is footnoted. (12) is called a footnote and if you look the source is the 2020 United states census.

    It could be spelling or grammar since we r just typing. Who knows how they pronounce than or then or even if than is in their vocabulary at all. Also never question my english. If it wasnt for me youd be speaking who knows what language.

    Even then, the vast majority are barely making by, just like the majority of the other people in the USA.

    Oh? Tell me more. Whence came this "mother tongue" and how many more assumptions do you have? And it's "I".

    LOL, and you can prove that, how? Asians have lower unemployment, higher rates of advanced degrees, have higher median salaries, are present in far higher percentages in techical majors in colloges and universities, etc.

    Who is claiming they are?
    And by what standards?

    ...
    But in the United States, Asian Americans have long been considered as a threat to a nation that promoted a whites-only immigration policy. They were called a “yellow peril”: unclean and unfit for citizenship in America.
    ...
    In the late 19th century, white nativists spread xenophobic propaganda about Chinese uncleanliness in San Francisco. This fueled the passage of the infamous Chinese Exclusion Act, the first law in the United States that barred immigration solely based on race.

    So please don't try "correcting" the English of others. So where are from, that it's your "mother tongue" if I may ask?

    None of that matters. You’re looking at the 1% and disregarding the 99% who don’t do those things. In short, you’re spreading propaganda.

    Likes for the data. My gut instinct as to the Asians is partly because they largely land on the west coast where everything is artificially inflated in terms of income. A lot of immigrants, perhaps because of --isms, work their way toward owning businesses and the like. I know 5 immigrants from Pakistan who own convenience stores now who started off in NYC driving cabs 16-18 hours a day and living in one and two bedroom apartments that basically rented beds by the hour to immigrants so many people were in and out of them. I also know that 4 of those 5 immigrants play fast and loose with tax laws so they are able to accumulate capital to invest more quickly when they are not paying taxes on big chunks of it.
