How is it they have such a positive outlook and succeed in America?
They had every reason to love us compared to the alternative.

If Japan had surrendered to the Soviets rather than us, do you think Stalin would have been as merciful as we were?

The existence of the Great Society, the war on drugs, and the war on poverty are all documented fact. It is documented fact that they greatly hurt black communities. Asians are lucky that they escaped the damage of those things.
well, I think Asian-Americans have different struggles.

Honestly, in foreigners' eyes, they are all ASIANS. It is the way it is supposed to be.

I have friends from Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, they are all the same to me. Love them all. Plus, a lot of these people joined the U.S. military, served their communities, these are hard working people who are intelligent, hard working, etc. Nothing jungle about it. I hate one minority group looking down on another minority group. Tacky as hell.

Why does a certain moderator delete all the thoughtful threads about ancestry even if they were a side topic to cops shooting few Asians, but leaves all the blatantly white demonizing and anti-white posts that are just as off topic?

Asian men often claim they are viewed as non masculine in the popular culture and less physical. While African American men are depicted as physical hyper masculine powerful beasts. Pornographic films reinforce this sterotype which is a legacy of slavery. But this is why blacks get killed because people are afraid of them and this is not new. Black men are viewed like Pit bulls are viewed when compared to other strong dogs like german shepherds.

I once had a post deleted for saying that a person " Is like a person who goes to a French restaurant and ordering a burger " on this board. While others said much worse. I dont get it either. But I havent seen any anti white post let alone threads. Yet i have seen many Black boogie man threads

Almost every other thread on this forum here is about black people and these posters usually perpetuate racism, but dont ever call them racists though.

Professional victimhood isn't limited to blacks-I know enough white losers that try to blame everyone else for their problems too. And I'll call them out just as quickly.
"Professional victimhood" has nothing to do with black people. YOU yourself and others see it that way. I accept responsibility for my actions.

I doubt the average black person is not saying "I cant get a job because my ancestors were slaves."

Yes, i know no one was a slave today. Do i think policies of the past affect today? Yes they do.

It's a shame. This thread has really been vandalized.

The view of black men as "beasts" and "scary" goes back to the days of Reconstruction. The Black brute stereotype is very old. They were viewed as "child like" during slavery.

There were those who felt that Black men could only be kept in line through terror.
