First, let me start with the reason right-wingers here defend Asians even after blaming them for COVID19 was that Asian culture teaches to take the abuse and be quiet. It is the same philosophy Booker T. Washington used and blacks found that DID NOT WORK. Young Asians today have found that it does not work and are talking to older Asians about it. In upcoming years look for Asians to lose most favored minority group status and honorary whiteness as they begin to get more forceful in their challenge of white supremacy.
As for Harvard, Asians are not getting excluded. Once again I will repost the information from the upcoming case.
Students for Fair Admissions v. President & Fellows of Harvard College. It is a case first filed in 2014.
In this case, the contention is that Asians are discriminated against based on the number of Asians turned down for Harvard admission. More than 30,000 students each year apply to Harvard. In 2019, there were 36,000 applicants for 1,600 slots. That meant 34,400 students of all races were not admitted. The claim is Asians get excluded to add black and Hispanic students. Ironically the claim is not made about Asians being passed over for white legacy students. Students for Fair Admissions claimed that Harvard violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. Title VI “prohibits discrimination based on race, color, and national origin in federal financial assistance programs and activities.” Here is where the claim gets sticky. But before we get to that, we need to understand what courts use as regulations guiding a decision in cases such as this.
When a case such as this goes to court, the court considers many things. As it pertains to this case, the First Circuit Court determined that Harvard’s policy satisfied “strict scrutiny” and did not discriminate against Asians relative to admissions. Strict scrutiny comes into play in equal protection cases such as this one because race is considered a suspect category under the law. As a suspect category, if race is used as a classification in situations like this, it must be proven that using race is necessary to further a “compelling interest,” and the objective could not be accomplished without doing so. The use of racial classifications in this situation makes sense if a university is trying to create a learning atmosphere that utilizes students, faculty, and staff's diverse life experiences.
It is time to look at Blum's claim. He claims Asians are discriminated against in admissions. Harvard admission numbers do not support his claim. Asians are 6 percent of the American population, but they were 25.9 percent of the students entering Harvard in 2021. That is a full ten percentage points more than African Americans (15.9%) and more than double the percentage of both Hispanics(12.5%) and Native Americans(11%). In fact, there were more Asians admitted into Harvard than Hispanics and Native Americans combined. Additionally, a study published by the National Bureau of Economic Research and reported on the NBC.com website on September 20, 2019, revealed this:
“Using publicly released reports, we examine the preferences Harvard gives for recruited athletes, legacies, those on the dean’s interest list, and children of faculty and staff (ALDCs). Among white admits, over 43% are ALDC. Among admits who are African American, Asian American, and Hispanic, the share is less than 16% each. Our model of admissions shows that roughly three quarters of white ALDC admits would have been rejected if they had been treated as white non-ALDCs. Removing preferences for athletes and legacies would significantly alter the racial distribution of admitted students, with the share of white admits falling and all other groups rising or remaining unchanged.”
Here, we see that whites are provided entry by a plethora of other preferences they would not qualify for if not for connections they have due to their race. The study shows that Asians are not adversely impacted because Harvard must admit blacks and Hispanics that are presumably unqualified. Instead, we see white ALDC students who would not qualify under any other circumstance who get accepted at more than double the percentage of Asians, Blacks, Hispanics, and Native Americans who meet the same criteria.
Equal protection means that government entities must treat all individuals the same when the circumstances or situations are the same. Students for Fair Admissions claimed that Harvard violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. Title VI “prohibits discrimination based on race, color, and national origin in federal financial assistance programs and activities.” The numbers show that when the circumstances and situations are the same, meaning ALDC preferences, 2.68 times more whites get admitted due to this preference than Asians, Blacks, Hispanics, and Native Americans.

Suddenly YOU know what percentage mean? So when I say 37 percent of all violent crime is committed by blacks and that is 25 percent HIGHER then the population of Blacks you claim you dont get it. When I say 60 percent of all violent crime is committed by whites and that is 5 percent LESS then the total population of whites you claim you dont get it.
They are not discriminated against relatIve to admission to Harvard. There is a WNBA.The fact that Asians are over-represented at Harvard doesn't mean they aren't discriminated against, because the average Asian applicant is more qualified than the average non-Asian applicant. The reason the NBA is all male isn't because it's discriminating against women, it's because men are better at basketball than women.
Not necessarily. Asians have been caught cheating. I find it funny how white racists defend Asians as they try getting rid of the policy that has allowed Asians to get admitted into universities. Most Asians don't like what right wing whites are doing.Maybe it's because Asians are just a lot smarter? Something to consider.
Salaries in the WNBA are about 40 times lower than those in the NBA, if WNBA players really were as good as NBA players, they would certainly be suffering brutal discrimination.There is a WNBA.

There is a WNBA. That's my point. Ticket sales determine salaries and I think the WNBA should move to the winter and play as doubleheaders with NBA games or schedule around mens NBA to get better crowds which will increase pay.Salaries in the WNBA are about 40 times lower than those in the NBA, if WNBA players really were as good as NBA players, they would certainly be suffering brutal discrimination.
Asians aren't discriminated against for blacks when there are 10 percent more Asians than blacks admitted.Asians are certainly discriminated against. For example, here Harvard admitted they would send a black person a letter encouraging them to apply for admission whereas they would not send any such letter to a similarly situated Asian: Harvard’s gatekeeper reveals SAT cutoff scores based on race
There is no fan base for the WNBA. It’s like the America’s Cup, the fan base is very narrow and mostly composed of people who have been part of the sport.There is a WNBA. That's my point.

Actually there is. I watch. And so do a lot of others.There is no fan base for the WNBA. It’s like the America’s Cup, the fan base is very narrow and mostly composed of people who have been part of the sport.
There is no one like that here. But whites who have your ideology do it all the time.There are a few retards here, who claim to be black skinned, that constantly start threads based on false premises and bigoted stereotypes. I nailed one down recently and made them admit it was about money. I support equal rights, but not wealth redistribution from earners to faux-victims.
Then there should be money to pay good salaries.Actually there is. I watch. And so do a lot of others.
Ahh, the irony is sublime. Tell me again how I owe you money because unrelated people did mean things in the past. I haven’t heard that cash-scam a hundred times before. Lulz.There is no one like that here.
Now what the fuck does this have to do with the thread title?Ahh, the irony is sublime. Tell me again how I owe you money because unrelated people did mean things in the past. I haven’t heard that cash-scam a hundred times before. Lulz.

You were the one who brought up the WNBA.Anything but the topic.
I feel no need to be constrained by your emotional and intellectual insecurities, kid. Concession accepted.Now what the fuck does this have to do with the thread title?
Since we were robbed of money, money is part of equal rights.
And since you want to talk, you are expressing the same racism as whites did in the 16, 17, 18, 1900's. So then our demand for reparations is not based on just things that happened due to unrelated people.I feel no need to be constrained by your emotional and intellectual insecurities, kid. Concession accepted.
