Th NY Mag article segues into a couple of tangents. The last one has nice little nugget in it that will really get him banned from the club. Questioning a Clinton is starting to actually become fashionable, especially if you were a Bernie-bot. Going against the dogma, though? That's another issue altogether.

Yet, today, Asian-Americans are among the most prosperous, well-educated, and successful ethnic groups in America. What gives? It couldn’t possibly be that they maintained solid two-parent family structures, had social networks that looked after one another, placed enormous emphasis on education and hard work, and thereby turned false, negative stereotypes into true, positive ones, could it? It couldn’t be that all whites are not racists or that the American dream still lives?

This is the only rebuttal needed to prove that Americans are not racist - excluding a vanishingly small number of retards.

We fought a war with the Japanese. There are hundreds of thousands of Americans still alive today who lost fathers/brothers/uncles in that war - and some the result of the most inhumane tortures imaginable. Yet, today, all those atrocities are part of the past - not forgotten, but not a reason for continuing resentment. The reason?? the people themselves whose government/relatives were responsible for the atrocities and deaths have demonstrated themselves to be responsible, honest, reliable, productive individuals.

If only this could be transferred to some of the other 'but slavery' memes.
