I don't see many of them protesting that their skin color is holding them back.

Asians vote Conservative by a fairly large majority.

Dems don't care about Asians.

Seattle and the likes love to captire them as minorities.

Then go to DuckDuckGo and use keywords asians vote conservative and educate yourself. Since the 1990s Asians have voted overwhelmingly Conservative.

It depends on whether or not they can be used to further the false narrative. They're definitely left out of 1) income studies, 2) crime statistics, and 3) the discussion about IQ tests being culturally biased and discriminatory.

One more stupid comment from a brain-dead liberal.

I don't believe Asians started thinking of themselves as people of color until they started getting passed over by college admission officers in favor of blacks and hispanics.

More and more are starting to play the color card. Not because they want to but because they have been forced to do so.

If systemic white racism existed to suppress all people that aren't white, why would that racism not include Asians?

At less than 5% of the population, they have even less influence than blacks or hispanics.

Why do they do so well here in this racist country?

Yes but they have done well for themselves so they don’t count. We can’t talk about why they have prospered either.

If it benefits liberals, yes.

In all other instances, no.

Did you know that there is currently a case in federal court against Harvard university for discriminating against Asians in the admissions process?

Because all the metrics eugenicists/modern racists use to prove white people are superior to black people, also prove yellow people are superior to errybody.

Turns out, white people are just a big fat #2.

"Brown People" and "Persons of Color" is a strategy place every non-white person under the same umbrella.

It's mostly worked, as even blonde mexicans named Martinez think they are a POC now.
