That's because typically the diversity you're looking at comes from the lower end.

America is so amazing, we can discuss diversity at the upper strata of society/meritocracy.

You get into that conflict when gini coefficients raise.

The problem with the decline of the European majority, and our culture in the US, is that our values were a major component of our success as country. Hard work, thrift, curiosity. A belief in fair play. Collectively we’re pretty unique, and it’s why we conquered the world.

And high-performing Asians adopting this culture is bad for promoting the culture...why?

Hitler wasn’t dumb he was an evil pos though in the process of his goal.

Not just now but always found it weird ppl run away from their country to come here then hang the flag of the shithole they left on their rear view mirror seeing it everyday.

MIT is 30% international students


That's undergrad. No one cares about undergrad. Check the stats for PhD programs.

Here's Cal-Tech's breakdown for graduate school:

47% International students (probably mostly Chinese)
32% White (I assume Jews dominate here)
10% Asian-American
13% Hispanic and multi-ethnic.

So almost HALF of Cal-Tech's PhD candidates are not even American. There's something very wrong with that in my opinion.

I am not against international students, but

1) They shouldn't comprise HALF of the student body
2) We should not be taking students from countries that hate us.

No

As Putnam found, wealth doesn’t modify that. It’s purely related to overall diversity. It’s just how we’re wired as animals.

The end up functioning as ethnic cartels with their own separate interests. You can see that especially in hiring. They’ll chose their group over anyone else.

I went to a podunk university and most of my peers were foreign in grad school. I’ll admit they were all way smarter than me. Undergrad was trash and lots of minorities that you wouldn’t expect ever being there, but are there in the name of DEI. I only went to college and grad school because of GI bill or else I wouldn’t have.

I mean if we're talking about Asians, selecting other Asians usually is the highest-performing population cohort as well.

Again, meritocracy means meritocracy.

I don't want to live in some emotional-thinking BLM quota state.

No, it’s cronyism and nepotism. Indians hiring Indians, Chinese nationals hiring Chinese nationals.

This makes no sense given the data you've given, especially in conjunction with the discrimination Asians face in college admissions.

They are the best students and get into the best schools. Why are you shocked they are more highly represented in elite jobs? Why do you debase yourself into a BLM-esque position and ignore the data?
