Asians consistently show IQ scores slightly above white people.

I think it is genetic.

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.

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.

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.
- there is a video on how certain privileges help. Lot of there are not priveledges either.

-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.

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.

I don't think this is just about money. Google has a lot more money than Soros does.

I suspect this is an outside attack and our intelligence agencies being the traitors they are, or possibly incompetents, are looking the other way, but I don't think they are this incompetent. I've seen them cover up too many crimes. They protected Jeffrey Epstein, and that's the LEAST of their criminal activity.

Yes, Chicoms fingerprints are all over this. They exploit our weaknesses and we are hapless in regards to this.

Democrats at best are ambivalent, whereas a lot welcome this as authoritarian state or Orwellian sympathizers.

Asians are White Adjacent because they disprove the 'lack of achievement is due to racism' narrative.

I’m surprised the split is 51/42 for Vietnamese. I thought it would be closer to 70/30 or even 80/20. It makes sense as the older generation dies off while it’s being replenished with the younger generations who grow up here.

Democrats at best are ambivalent

So I have been using the word ambivalent in that context probably since I learned the word but recently found out that it's wrong. I think you mean, "Democrats don't care either way", but's not what that means. That means, "Democrats care both ways in a conflicting way"...

No, I'm not a grammar nazi... I just notice that a lot nowadays.

"Ambivalence is a state of having simultaneous conflicting reactions, beliefs, or feelings towards some object. Stated another way, ambivalence is the experience of having an attitude towards someone or something that contains both positively and negatively valenced components."

You are misunderstanding what I wrote. Read it again.

The best case scenario as far as the US national security and sovereignty, the Democrats have contradictory views of the Chicoms. They are not as much as ideologically against the Chicoms like the Republicans are.

Hence, the Democrats at best are ambivalent towards the Chicoms.
