Whites have an unfair advantage. BIPOC communities can’t get ahead.

Yeah, but East Indians are white according to the libs.

Uh.. this doesn't disprove that.
One can have a disadvantage and still succeed in America.
I bet if you asked those groups whether they faced racism in the US or were disadvantaged compared with white Americans, they'd say yes.
And furthermore, nearly all of those ethnic groups vote for Democrats - if they thought that they didn't have a disadvantage, why on earth would Asian Americans vote for Democrats?

It’s called playing both sides. They benefit from the society that values hard work (not based on skin tone). But also benefit from being told they are a victim to the evil white oppressors.

I bet the vast majority of those in the upper half have technical degrees.

Indian Americans that own small businesses aren’t voting democrat.

Yeap, like men. We are dumber, more likely to commit suicide, more likely to live on the street and more likely to end up in jail.
But there are a lot of us that didn’t succumb to that.

The majority of Indians I have worked with in the chemical industry were socialists or commies.

And here's the follow up to that statement...for those that believe they faced racism, was it actual racism or is it just a convenient excuse to dismiss their culpability / lack of personal responsibility in making progress?
I'm not saying it's all or nothing...but I will submit (as an opinion only) that there's far more laziness out there than racism, and it's easy to shift the blame to that boogeyman than admit you're just not willing to put in the work.

The ones I know own restaurants and live in places like Alabama. They are conservatives.
Hence why I said small business owner.
The female Indian pro bono lawyer is not a conservative. That’s easy to spot.

They keep telling us White people are better.
At everything.
I’m starting to believe them.

Democrats are the ones making it more difficult for Asians in higher education.
I seriously have no clue how one can make the argument that Asians are oppressed in any way. Certain bigotry? Sure on an individual level, same as white people deal with.

Wish someone could so a side-by-side with this and a graph showing HS graduate and post HS education.

Simple fix: just claim that Asians (of various countries of origin) aren't BIPOC
If you do it using over-verbose language and spread that out over 150-200 pages with citations to an echo chamber of belief systems, you can get a pHD and be considered "legitimate" and possibly, even "the science".

And probably hate whitey too. Indians being imported are more a threat to our traditional way of life than people give them credit for. Not the everyday one that keep their head down and keep to their work. But the ones that play the govt and/or corporate politics game.
The caste system mentality wasn't left behind, nor was their hate for westerns who took shite over.
We are seeing a lot of payback from around the world for our ancestors civilizing it...by any means necessary.

This is sample bias at its finest.
You're taking:
a) A bunch of Indians that you know - presumably you're conservative so you're going to interact more with conservative Indians
b) People who live in Alabama. That's sample bias because Indians disproportionately live in liberal states.
In actual fact, Indians are one of the most Democrat Asian groups in America.

What?
You've just shown it in your comment about how difficult it is for Asians in higher education.
Asians are being kept systematically out of top colleges, which is an example of systemic racism against Asians.

People can say whatever they want, and still be wrong. You prove that often.

I am fine with your assessment of this and agree it should be dismantled.
