Today they outperform whites in all major life outcomes in the US.

Why?

Culture.

We currently have leftists arguing for cultural relativism as if it makes no difference.
Because they have very high rates of 2 parent families. The children are receiving the guidance they wont get as readily get from a single parent family.

It isn't just 2 parent families. It is both parents are involved regardless of marital status + Grand parents are involved + Aunts and uncles + older cousins. Asian families are very competitive even among their own.

The most common thing I see is Asian kids dont want to shame the family. Its almost an obsession.

But somehow your observation is correct and every single study known to mankind is wrong
I've traversed C-D well over a decade and my sentiment has never changed. Certainly my observations and personal experiences. My observations may strike yourself as odd especially, if you reside within a opaque bubble, possess preconceived beliefs, and rely chiefly on news or biased data.

Moreover- if you're not military nor belong to the STEM field; you truly don't possess a fist to swing in this fight.

Admittedly as a category of people we're great in common academia pursuits. Truly splendid being uncommon among the common; Albeit- not so great being uncommon among the uncommon.

Notate: I'm not refuting Law school's low admittance scores nor their black student grades. I'm willing to bet the cow most comments were hurled from members incapable of scoring well on the LSAT.

Surely throughout the STEM community the struggle to maintain a seat at the big table has become evident over decades but we relish pointing the finger in directions far away from our community's shortcomings.

Except you made this all up and have no proof otherwise. None. Like I said "But somehow your observation is correct and every single study known to mankind is wrong"

You don't get to make the rules in order to squelch conversation. It's always about the actual topic.

Proof please. Actual studies.

When standards are lowered, quality and efficiency suffer. They were admitted over more qualified students because of their skin color.

Parental participation is the number one factor on if a child does well in school. Money and quality of teachers mattered little.

How do I know? Married to an Asian and we are deep in the Asian community. Never apologize for success and never accept being average. That by the way came from my white side. Unlike the woke, I refuse to apologize for being successful, for sins of others I have never met or for sins that happened before my grandfathers were born.

Unlike many I don't accept an average personal performance as acceptable. It never is and it can always be better. You show me someone who is fine with being average and Ill show you a subpar performer every single time. Why? Because they made average their high mark.

Whites are being dumbed down so that they do not excel. That faux societal guilt is as destructive as any nuke.
They want us all stupid so they can control us.

As an officer of Marines I must note; a majority of the strongest critical thinkers, trailblazers, and leaders were predominantly men of color; from junior troops to Senior leadership.

Moreover throughout undergrad and grad school [Mathematics & Physics] bottom feeders (so to speak) were abundantly white and most overachievers were the Blacks, Indian, and Asian students.

Unfortunately within STEM fields they're head above shoulders.

Perhaps in fields such as nursing, social science, humanities, marketing, and Art we take the cake from our melanated counterparts.
You're so full of it it is unbelievable, none of what you say agrees with statistics/studies. I don't have time to look each one up so you will have to look it up for yourself. Oh, never mind you already know what you spew is garbage so you don't have to take the time to prove yourself wrong.

In a blind test, blacks still come in dead ass last every time.

Nothing has changed.
