Biggest American Hypocrisy to Chinese People - Chinese Exclusion Acts

[shuttler]

only tunnel vision like you don't see what other outside of china's vision see. china copy everything they can get their hands on, which damage other hard work. poison everything every chance they get. destroy SCS reef when they fish. built dams to change water direction which will cause numerous problem to the earth environment in the future. want more ?

you have ZERO vision
We have a world vision
If we copy everything we will be paying our fees fighting copyright legal battles more than we earn and yet we still maintain a $3 trillion plus fx reserves and we keep acquriing overseas companies
If we poison world then half of the world's population should probably be dead 20 years ago and we are STILL one of the top trading partners with europe. america and many other large economies of the world
If we are destroying reefs why are the pinoys. vietcongs still stealing our fishes and sea products in SCS?
Water dams are important for controlling flooding and water supply, ensuring smooth navigation and for generation of clean energy

malaysians ae oppressing their minorities, but remember that they are of a particular religion.
in US African americans are given reservation because they are acknowledged to have been persecuted and the govt is trying to use education to bring them on par socially.. wrong?
Also there is some reservation for economically backward people as it is considered that they would not have had the same opportunities as more well off. is that racist?
AA may seem unfair but in the long run it may be beneficial if applied correctly.

Like I said, why do Asian Americans get to be discriminated against, even though they were discriminated against in the past?

This is ridiculous. Only because Asians are smarter and harder working to we have to put up with this.

Affirmative action is not racist, only a forward idea with a backwards result. It was created to encourage minorities to attend college since a much, much smaller demographics of blacks and hispanics attend college than whites and asians. It's not perfect, it has controversies, but it's not racist.

Even with AA working against asians, if you can't get in Harvard, you can still get in Yale, Princeton, UC Berkeley, etc. There's many exceptional universities in the US.

Yea and why should we put up with racism? Maybe SE Asians need to have some AA against them. Oh no, that would be racist, but when it is Korean or Chinese this is ok? Asians were discriminated against till the 60's and since the 80's we have had to put up with the SAME BS because we are more successful?

You do know that affirmative action once benefited Asians and that many Asians still support AA? We're not being discriminated because we're more successful. You don't know the different between being discriminated and having the government not hold your hand. We're put on the same conditions as whites meaning that we don't need government assistance to be successful. That's a compliment.
Affirmative Action : Asian-Nation :: Asian American History, Demographics, & Issues

Only a small percentage of students are rejected from AA. Colleges may want to be diverse, but they don't want to accept mediocre students, lower school ratings and prestige, just for the student's skin color; they keep AA at a minimum. Students rejected because of AA (which is impossible to tell, maybe you aren't on par as your peers and use AA as excuse) are the ones who BARELY qualifies for acceptance but are unfortunate enough to have a black student with equivalent stats. Without AA, you can still be selected over someone who displays better stats than you because are you:
1. Rich, and can pay extra money to be accepted into the school.
2. Poor, schools take pity on students from an unfortunate family.
3. Health conditions, if you are dying from a disease and only have 10 years left to live.
4. First generation in your family to attend college.
5. Citizen of the country and not international student.

and the list goes on

Like I already stated:

1: Giving others, whether they be African-Americans or Arabs, AA takes away opportunities for Asians who deserved those slots. And for what reason is this? Seeing as how the basis of AA is to give minorities that were persecuted in this country a leg-up on the White majority, then why aren't Asian Americans included in this program?

2: Asians are not only discriminated against when it comes to other minorities that are generally less succesfull, we are also discriminated against for the BENEFIT of the White-majority.

A 2005 study by Princeton sociologists Thomas J. Espenshade and Chang Y. Chung compared the effects of affirmative action on racial and special groups at three highly selective private research universities. The data from the study represent admissions disadvantage and advantage in terms of SAT points (on the old 1600-point scale):

Whites: 0 (control group)

Blacks: +230

Hispanics: +185

Asians: –50

Recruited athletes: +200

Legacies (children of alumni): +160

"In 2009, Princeton sociologist Thomas Espenshade and researcher Alexandria Walton Radford, in their book 'No Longer Separate, Not Yet Equal', examined data on students applying to college in 1997 and calculated that Asian-Americans needed nearly perfect SAT scores of 1550 to have the same chance of being accepted at a top private university as whites who scored 1410 and African-Americans who got 1100. Whites were three times, Hispanics six times, and blacks more than 15 times as likely to be accepted at a US university as Asian-Americans. These results were after controlling for grades, scores, family background (legacy status) and athletic status (whether or not the student was a recruited athlete)."

AA is racist and it often leads to those not qualified for the position to attain it, at the cost of a more suitable candidate.
Instead of encouraging competition like China does, the US tries to make the top performance and the slackers more equal, resulting in overall decline in quality.

AA is to encourage a more balanced demographic of ethnicity. If a school lacks black students, it will benefit blacks. If a school lacks white or asians, then it will benefit those two. Asians once benefited from AA because there were only a small percentage of them compared to whites in the past so it worked against the whites back then. AA is not racist, it doesn't pick its targets, it is there for balancing racial ethnicity in schools.

I don't like AA either and I too believe school spots belong to those that qualifies, but as my point stands, it's not racist.

You compare Alcoholism to Slavery?

No. I used it to illustrate the proper context of hypocrisy.

Hypocrite mean you call someone out for a crime you also commit and continue on to preach how crime hurt people in society.

Fine. Are blacks are slaves today in America? Is the Chinese Exclusion Act still in effect?

Like an alcoholic with a beer in his hand then advice other alcoholic stop drinking.

Already explained. Too bad you did not understand.

Civil war wasn't fought to end slavery but to prevent the confederate state secede from the union, the north economy depend on industrial but the south depend on argriculture that heavily rely on slavery to work on plantation.

The Civil War was fought over slavery, of which was ingrained in Southern society. The threat to secede was companion to that disagreement and therefore companion to the reason why there was a civil war. This is not a choice. The Civil War was fought over several issues. This tell me you have limited education, intelligence, and critical thinking skill.

The northern states want to abolish slavery because they can't exploit slavery for their economic gain, no reason enslave someone if there no need for it.

Further evidence of your low intelligence. If slaves can be imported to the Southern states, slaves can also be imported to the Northern states. If slaves can be used to work the farms in the South, slaves can be used to work the factories in the North. The North want to abolish slavery for moral reasons.

Clue for you, kid, it was in England that slavery was first legally abolished by a Western power...

You have a sorry knowledge and understanding of basic history. Leave the Internet and pick up a real book.

US Government are a head of all countries on earth as dealing with racist, that doesn't means American are not racist, to some degree American are still racist, but to a large degree American are not racist.

This is very true, now AA are in favored toward Hispanic and it tougher for Asian to get in AA even with a higher score.
