Like what sort of value does a given society place on education. Asians are TOPS.


Kev: Well yes that’s true and noted over here as well, culturally they put a much higher value on education which is relatively hard earned in places like India and Africa.

"They" in your post obviously ref ...[text shortened]... e on education. So you can change my "Chinese" to "Asians" if you prefer; I still dispute the claim.

Well,I was asking about which sociological factors earl was referring to, and no amount of academics will convince me that people from the Indian subcontinent and parts of Africa do not value education to a much greater extent than the average native brit regardless of colour or creed and I would extend this cultural difference to first and possibly second generation brits of that heritage.
No it’s not worth bickering about it’s just a phenomenon that I’ve noticed first hand without any help from academia. If it’s a stereotype it’s a positive one and based in reality.

I didn't refer to you as a "racist"; I did say you were repeating racial stereotypes - which you are.

I gave you the short version. Do I have to put it in the form of a coloring book for you to understand it?

We've gone over the rationale for AA many times and no matter how many times right wingers idiotically call someone "racist" because they support taking into consideration the negative effects systemic racism has on POC in the US it does not change the fact that AA is a tool against racism.

AA is based on the false narrative of a widely held stereotype of African Americans.

I have presented to you the fact that systemic racism against Jews and Asians never
effected their academic standing, which is far better in America than Caucasian Americans.

It was all water off a duck's back when spent on you. Enjoy your stereotypes!
