I think a lot of Asians regard HonkeyFucks as something akin to bleached monkeys. Hey, congratulations, you've just achieved parity with a bleached monkey.

So does that make Asian South-Indians ... Black,White ppl?

Hasn't it been argued both ways in courts over the years?

Asians consistently show IQ scores slightly above white people.

I think it is genetic.

Patrick says

I think it is genetic.

Nah, we just became successful and lazy. My hat's off to them though, they work hard for those grades and anyone who studies like that will increase IQ. It isn't static.

The sample is skewed for asian immigrants, Mostly only the best could immigrate.

Anyone not fitting the role of "exploitable victim" is tossed aside by the communists, as they can't be used to further their goal.

They've spent decades telling black people in America that they can't succeed on their own without help that can only be given by Democrats and that any failure is not their fault but the fault of some other group. This wears people down over time and eventually they start to believe it.

Then look at how they treat a strong, independent, successful black person who doesn't need or want hand-outs or special advantages, and won't toe the line by claiming that they were kept down by racism and oppression. This risks destroying that lie they've been repeating for so long. Immediately the facade of tolerance and virtue drops, and out come the verbal attacks with racist name calling like "uncle Tom", "race traitor", and saying they're "off the plantation".

GoP politicians may not care about, or go out of their way to help blacks specifically, but I don't routinely see them actively engaged in harming them. On the other hand, I've long viewed the Democrats as a party of racists. They put on this phony act where they lie about caring and helping, but their policies show their true intent, having directly resulted in great harm to the black community. Fostering dependence, preventing development, and encouraging divorce, infidelity, and abortion. In Democrat run cities where young black men are murdering each other at a horrific rate, there seems to be no real concern from those D's in charge. I do not believe these are accidental or unintended consequences, either. These are deliberate. These are crimes against humanity.

That’s true of any country... typically only the best, brightest, and most motivated immigrate.

But I wonder, is that more true of Asian countries compared to non Asian countries?

Legal immigrants maybe but not with illegals.

Success is the new failure.

So when these inferior slack jawed Asshole Commies come for our guns, Whites and roof top Koreans, will just outsmart the dumb animals and keep our guns.

I can tell you that in my AP Physics classes, which typically involve the top 25% of the graduating class, I've had about 600 students the past 12 years. If I made a top 50 list, Asians/Indans own 45 of the top spots. And, I would say they might only have 10 or 15 in the entire bottom 50%.

One time, we had the kids filling out some stupid form. The instructions specifically said, Arab students should check off white. The 1 Arabic kid in class made a joke that he's finally made it.

about affirmative action:

about affirmative action:

If US is destroyed Taiwan, Japan and South Korea will be provinces of China and their children will live under CCP fascist rule. So they need to wake the fuck up and stop voting for anybody with D next to their name.

There’s extreme selection bias with asian immigrants from certain countries like Japan and China. Basically they send the best and brightest over here so of course they dominate academically.
Other Asian sub groups like Vietnamese exhibit a much wider degree of intellectual variance. I live near many Vietnamese and indeed Little Saigon is only a few miles away. Some of their kids are indeed brilliant. Others are average and less. They work as doctors and lawyers but also auto mechanics and electricians and every other trade. Most do work and work hard. They’re good citizens, for the most part although you don’t want to drive behind one. Slow and careful doesn’t begin to describe it.

Anyway, selection bias means that we aren’t getting average or even above average Chinamen or Indians. We are getting their top shelf which is why they all seem so smart to us over here.

I dated a Chinese Google employee who somehow just assumed all Indians were as smart as the ones she works with. When the Amazing Race had an episode in India, she was shocked. Actually, I was shocked too ... not because of the living conditions shown but because Amazing Race didn't cut out the footage. I'd have a hard time believing Amazing Race will be invited back!

I had biochem, embryology, genetics in college. I remember studies of identical twins reared apart showing that intelligence is about 50% genetic.

Intelligence is strongly correlated with genetics:

The unspoken assumption many advocates of scrapping the SAT make is that cutting the undeserving white population down to size would make these numbers fairer. But white students are also underrepresented, if only ever so slightly, at the UC: They make up 21 percent of the undergraduate population and 22 percent of K–12 schoolchildren.

There is only one group of students who are “overrepresented,” to use the chilling language of social engineering, at the university: Asian Americans. Twelve percent of K–12 students are Asian or Pacific Islander, compared with 34 percent of UC undergraduates. Aligning enrollment with state demographics would require cutting the share of those students by almost two-thirds. It would mean getting right with contemporary concepts of anti-racism by reviving one of California’s most shameful traditions: clearing Asians out of desirable spaces.

You want to know what this is really about?

It's creating an aristocracy. Shithead moron kids will be shuffled through Harvard, Yale, whatever, and then because they went to those (formerly) prestigious schools, they are suddenly to be qualified as an executive of a corporation which is a monopoly. So, people like Hunter Biden would have no trouble doing this, regardless of what a fucking moron he is.

It's not about getting more black, latino, whatever into higher education. It's about keeping particular families in power.

I recall reading that IQ has a tendency to revert towards the mean. Basically, a mom and dad who have high IQs (meaning, higher than their racial/genetic average), are more likely to produce children who also have high IQ. But, while they're expected to produce smarter than average children, they likely won't be as smart as mom or dad, because IQ will tend towards the mean, which is in the other direction.

Likewise, 2 very low IQ parents are likely to produce children with higher IQs than them.

So, if asian immigrants have high IQ due to selection effects, over time their descendants might be expected to dumb down from this mechanic.

Patrick says

Nah, they are hard working people. Culture of sacrifice for future and delayed gratification pays off. America is killing itself with modern culture.

I don't doubt that a culture of hard work can influence measured IQ to some degree, but obviously a large part of IQ is also inherited. See the bar chart above.

Could be, not denying it.

Funny how American kiddie establishments view Asians, while Asian people usually characterize themselves with big wide Anime eyes.

Talk about you average White Liberal all inclusive screwing the pooch, while trying to stamp out the white family.

The top schools were originally founded with the intent keeping the top families in power. That aspect hasn't changed. What has changed is that in the 1950s the top schools also started letting in very smart kids that worked hard at academics. More recently another change took place, as schools added a 3rd category: kids with certain ethnic backgrounds that aren't well represented among the power-families or the smart and hard-studying. This new category of kids aren't necessarily more impoverished than the very smart kids; in fact, the new set of kids are often the most well-off of their category, as they are the ones in position to best manipulate the system. As competition for top schools has intensified, the categories have become more obvious, which, ironically, confirms stereotypes and furthers all the "isms" we're supposed to be avoiding.

A lot of Asians especially Chinese are Democrats. I think some of this is because the Democrats are not as anti Chicom. The left wing authoritarian ideology or neo Marxist leanings also may be attractive ideology to them.

Also Chinese may think they'll have more power if they are members of the Democrat Party. I suspect a large percentage of Chinese in California are Democrats.

Intelligence is strongly correlated with genetics:

Hi, Patrick - I don't think this chart is about raw intelligence. It's about how close in intelligence certain pairs of children are correlated. Identical twins are the closest in intelligence to each other. Nothing about raw scores - two twins dumb as rocks or geniuses, have similar scores. Half- sisters or brothers have a much wider spread of IQs. Duh.
Whatever "Study" this came from seems a dumb waste of money - just confirming what common sense would tell ya. Publish or perish, right?

.

That is why the Wokes and Left want to do away with standardized test as we know it. They want to revolutionize it in a Woke-sense, which means equalizing results.

Think about how the Woke and Left reacted when they see ACT and SAT average scores by race.

That is the catalyst for them to progressively infiltrate all the organizations connected to standardized testing, whether its The College Board or the admissions departments at top universities.

No doubt genetics has part in it, but nurture is significant.

-Having both parent helps a lot, kid doesn't have to worry about $ n concentrate on education. Asian family's r usually together. Vs AA lot of single mom
Dad sometimes smacks wisdom into kids :)
-good friends
-I was worried about paying for college, but my kids don't have to worry as much.

KgK one says

Asian family's r usually together.

Its a hyper-achiever culture and they stick together with each other even if not part of their family unit ... they stick together just as much as the Jewish community did going back to the 1990s to 2010s and as much as African Americans stick with the Democrat Party

Eman will drop some clues and subtle comments to attest to this .. Not trying to be over critical or an asshole about this, just my honest firsthand observations over the last +30 years ...

....

Typically when group is targeted, they stick together to survive.

In college n irl, seen lot of asian Chinese n Indian girls with ghost fever. They only date white boys. So they are open to others with high achievements typically.

Us born Black community has cultural issue keeping them poor, them voting for dems has not helped them much, but they keep doing it. They should start 3rd party n watch how shit improves

This is exactly what proves that intelligence is highly heritable.

It's about destruction.

There are going to be companies, even if they have to be offshore, that don't engage in any of this malarky, and as a result, will outcompete the corporations that do.

In communism they tried to create equal outcomes.

It's self correcting, but it might take 100 years.

Someone like Soros funds left wing and AntiFa-style militant groups that pressure these corporations to have over representation of minorities from the middle to the top levels. Soros then shorts the stock of these companies.
