Could have but I am a 1%. Suffering the unable is considered bad form. And yes I guessed what you meant. But why should I do that? Better to invite you to express your though in reasonable English.

Not really hard if you think before you post.

I normally don't agree with you ,but on this I think you are spot on correct.

I was wondering myself what a non-Chinese Asian person had to do to get ahead in China. I imagine under the left's "antiracism" policy white and conservative Americans will end up something like the uyghurs.

It's better, usually, to have people realize on their own that you're very intelligent, rather than telling them in every post.

And what is "your though"?

(Seems every time one purposely tries to belittle someone, there is a clerk with a clip board in the heavens taking note. And it'll come back to them).

If you were actually as smart and content with your life as you claim, you wouldn't be dissing people over typos.

To me its obvious what’s going on. I hope I’m wrong though, I am most of the time. But IMO somebody is rigging the school system: meaning all the “have nots†will be in public schools being taught useless knowledge of gender identity and wokeness , while the “haves†will send their kids to private schools for STEM studies. Guess who wins.

If this was all planned (for whatever reason)I applaud them for their undermining skills.

Yes, Uyghurs are quite popular in China.
Chinese people tend to think they are good looking (with some Eurasian features) so they are overrepresented in TV shows.

China also has AA. Minorities usually receive 20~50 bonus points in the national college entrance examination (Total 750 points).
Many government jobs have reserved seats for minorities.

Actually I was well qualified to dis people over typos when I was in the sixth grade. Want an interesting experience try growing up the eldest child of two English Majors one of who is brilliant. Mother was the ultimate English Major. During her entire academic career from grade school through college, through graduate school, through law school, through an LLM in taxation she received all As but one C. The guy who gave her the C was a professor in NYU. She forced him to resign.
