Asian and Indian immigrants generally come here very poor with less than zero in generational wealth yet somehow manage to get their kids into medical and law school and end up home owners with a nice retirement. This is why the far left hates Asians so much, they are inconvenient to their narrative that it's always someone else's fault and you are not in control of your own life (and therefore need to be dependent on them as the only hope)

Ding ding ding

what world are you living in where this isn't talked about? this is all that's talked about. read these forums. read any sites that discuss crime. turn on television or look at news channels and you see blacks arrested, thrown in jail. you'll see black criminals and plenty of innocent blacks freed after doing decades for crimes they didn't commit. to say "no one is talking about it" is being disingenuous and it is demonstrably false. heck george hw bush won his election by using black faces to scare the electorate.


I'm living in the real world.the idea that media or politicians ever address black on black violence and a massive lack of black fathers for black children let alone make it a focal point is beyond laughable.They don't and won't.
It's why kids are taught things like a white person can kill a black person and get away with it no problem.Lets just ignore the fact 93 percent of black people being killed are killed by other black people.

It would be career suicide for a politician to ever say anything of the sort and it's just easier to parrot black lives matter,tell black people what horrible victims they are and how everything is whiteys fault whole doing nothing to actually fix these issues.


The far left is so absolutely rediculous with their politically correct nonsense.If they want to fix real issues then adresss real problems and the sources of those problems.Theyre either complete imbeciles oblivious to these things or they're intentionally making problems worse

Teaching kids this garbage won't help anyone either.

Many are also college educated before arriving here.

You cannot compare Asians with blacks. Two different histories.

It is like apples and oranges, you cannot compare them.

I also don't think Asians were prevented from generational wealth, like blacks were.

If you disaggregate ”Asian immigrants” it quickly becomes clear that certain groups, which are more likely to have education and assets in their home countries and to have entered voluntarily (e.g., Indians), can tend to do fairly well socioeconomically, while other groups with more difficult historical circumstances (e.g., Hmong, Laotians) tend to struggle. They don't have some kind of ”better culture” that lets them succeed while Blacks don't. Them that's got shall get, them that's not shall lose.

You're going to have to do better than that
CRT is Neo-Marxist, not Marxist. Marxism exclusively deals with class and has no care for race relations. CRT is also not Postmodern in any sense since it clearly contradicts the "no meta narratives" idea within the postmodernist movement. Their may be some postmodernists who support it, but that doesn't make CRT postmodernist any more than a postmodernist supporting Trump making Trump a postmodernist.

The word is Marxian, all this shtt is Marxian power conflict identity group nonsense. It says there is no individuals, only groups ans systems. If something doesn't go your way and you're black, it's the system's fault - that's he bottom line. CRT is calling everything racist where the end result doesn't go your way
