I literally just said that you cannot label the cultural contributions of a group of people with the same skin color as a single unit and you go ahead and dismiss all that because you've "lived and traveled in many parts of Asia".
> stark economic correlation
This is completely unrelated to peoples' culture, which you claimed would become a monoculture if schools were majority Asian. If you want to be "conscious of the way that race is viewed and handled within a society" why don't you take a look at the Chinese Exclusion Act and Japanese WW2 concentration camps? If you take the stance that reparations should be made for systemic injustices, then you should be _preferencing_ Asians.
> would result in very similar outcomes due to the economic correlation between racial groups
I suggest you take a look at UC and UW admissions data and rethink your position. All the available evidence of unbiased admissions used in practice show substantial Asian overrepresentation even adjusted for income.
You need to take a serious look at the peoples' preferences you're ignoring when you decide to preach about the "importance" of race in society. California, where Democrats literally have a supermajority, voted down Prop 16 by a 20 point margin.
And maybe while you're at it, take a look at how racist your statements are. Implying that schools will evolve a monoculture if Asians become the majority is blatantly racist. Everything you've said thus far matches up to a tee the picture of a white liberal who thinks he knows everything and wants to dictate how people should view society. This [1] article literally exactly represents what you believe. People like you ARE the problem.

- dktoao 5y ago> People like you are the problem Really adds some credence to your “I’m not a racist, you’re a racist!” Argument /s That’s actually a fantastic article, it outlines pretty well the hypocrisy of the left. You may find that there are some of us on the left that are trying to call out this bullshit too.
- b9a2cab5 5y ago> You may find that some of us on the left are trying to call out this bullshit too You should take a look at this video by John Oliver [1]. I find it hilarious how 9 years and 2 presidents later it is still relevant. You refuse to admit that _you're the one spewing the bullshit_. Any thought that you could be wrong is just inconceivable to you.
