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

East Asians, primarily on the west coast do NOT overwhelmingly vote Republican. Southeast Asians , especially in Texas/ Louisiana do.
A third generation Asian steeped in popular culture can be eaten up with Progressivism just as easily as any other minority. The longer they have been degraded by Identity Politics the more likely they are to adopt it.
What is “ people of color “ anyway but a way to say they aren’t white and they are Leftist in their politics.

No. Asians don't seem to have a problem getting accepted at places like Harvard and Stanford based upon grades and scores.

Pretty much. It's a lazy catch-all term now.

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.
Ashkenazi Jews have the highest average IQs making various Asians number two and pushing black folks further down the list.
These are all just population averages, mind you, so don’t get bent out of shape.

Bent "out of" shape? Hell, I don't remember the last time I was in a shape.

Even this isn't true. There are many supposed Latino POCs that are light-skinned European and just as Caucasian as me.
But having a last name of Ramirez, Martinez, etc., apparently overrides genetics.

That has more to do with poverty. All humans share the same fricking brain.

Then go to DuckDuckGo and use keywords asians vote conservative and educate yourself. Since the 1990s Asians have voted overwhelmingly Conservative
Scooster Asians did vote GOP but it was not overwhelming. The Dems actually took over in 2000 and have made significant gains every since. For reference in 2012 and 2016 they voted at a 72 and 65% clip...
The GOP did have the vote throughout the 60s all the way to the late 90s but it has reversed completely.

ystemic 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?
1. Who defined it as "all people who are not white". The only things I've seen are people complaining that's its specifically black people.
2. Jews would also fall into the same category as Asians by your thought process.

Were all technically people of color.
White is a color
Black is a color
Brown is a color
Orange is color
What they really mean is Non-White people.

Now who's getting bent out of shape?
All I said was why I think the white racists don't seem to mind the Orientals. Maybe they see them as superior.
Maybe they see the Ashkanazim as superior too, ask Zach, he's a Eugenicist.

Wouldn't that make them Mestizo?
The racial hierarchy was:
White (direct descent European particularly Spain)
Mestizo or other half breeds of Europeans.
Latin Natives

yeah, the color green.
Is it too racist to say that they excel at making money?

There is racism of superiority and racism of inferiority.
The racism perpetuated against Blacks is that of superiority (as in thinking you are better than)
The racism that perpetuated against Asians and Jews is of inferiority (you have to restrict them to hide your inferiority).
I don't like Eugenics. I can acknowledge certain races have traits that give them advantages. But I believe that nurture plays a larger long term role in human development than nature.

Some perhaps, but even full blood Europeans are claiming POC.
