Personal attacks are against HN guidelines, no matter how well intentioned your cause.
Implying that Asians, Indians, and so forth are "privileged classes" and not "marginalized races" too and suggesting the diversity they bring is of no "value" is probably why this cause has negligible support among Asians, Indians, and so forth, beyond a bit of token lip service. Why work so hard to alienate and denigrate the very people whose support you ought to be courting to bolster your side?
- andrewstuart2 6y agoWhere's the personal attack? As for your latter statement, I never said anything like that. You're putting a whole lot of words in my mouth. As far as I could tell, that was the stance taken by the person I responded to. As for income equality, I'm seeing that, in the US, Asians reported the highest median household income in 2019 at more than double the median black household income. If you really want to talk about value, it seems that the money is indicating plenty of value across the board. https://www.census.gov/library/visualizations/2019/demo/p60-266.html https://www.census.gov/library/visualizations/2019/demo/p60-...
