[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan- aka Enrique Cardova: [QB] Doug says [b]As far as Asians go, we need to stop lumping them in with our struggle. Asians are benefiting from all the fighting and dying that black folks did in the 50s and 60s when Asians couldn't come here. So most Asians who are in America today have never faced any racism.[/b] A bit misleading. Though not to the same extent as blacks, Asians have been around in the US quite a while and faced discrimination, the Chinese for example who were often massacred and driven out in te 1880s- so that the saying arose: [i]"Not a Chinaman's chance".. [/i] Then there is the case of the Japanese internees.. plenty of racism there. YOur point seems to apply more to RECENT Asian arrivals.. You fail to account for hundreds of thousands already IN PLACE before that who also kept on increasing via natural population growth. [IMG]https://images.ucpress.edu/covers/isbn13/9780520256941.jpg[/IMG] [b]And more importantly these people aren't here to fight racism and especially not to fight racism against black folks. They are being allowed into the country to be a buffer against blacks and to be used as a brain drain to help America and the West continue to dominate Asia economically and socially. [/b] Agan somewhat misleading. Asian immigration is not to help the West dominate Asia economically and socially. How so? Give a concrete example of your claim. If anything, that immigration is more helpful to Asians, as they get the opportunity to tap into Western networks of advanced technoogy and knowledge that they then can take to Asia and expand. Nothing wrong with this. The Japanese did this extensively to modernize and hold their own against white competitors, in turn becoming strong hegemons themselves in East Asia. By 1905 they were defeating European powers on the high seas naval battles. By 1941 they had the best integrated carrier systems, the best pilots, and in those initial years, the best carrier fighter plane, the famous Mitsubishi Zero. The Chinese are now doing the exact same thing- getting as much advanced knowledge as possible from the West, and growing stronger as a result. They of course supplied the West with several key items of technology that enabled Western dominance namely gunpowder, printing and the compass, back in the day. And is brain drain necessarily "bad"? CHina has no shortage of people training to be engineers, scientists etc, nor does India necessarily. In fact the Asians are using their internal education as an "export". Juat as some nations export copper or rice, so their educational systems churn out graduates for "export" to the West. Damn smart strategy. https://blogs.wsj.com/indiarealtime/2015/01/30/the-surprising-secret-of-indias-success-could-be-its-brain-drain/ [IMG]http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/BN-GS339_ibrain_G_20150130050838.jpg[/IMG] [b]So even though it is blacks that fought, struggled and sacrificed for America to change and make it possible to come here, the first thing they do is to spit in black folks faces and kick them in the face as a sign of appreciation [/b] This indeed may the the case with SOME. As Richard Pryor once said in one of his routines, the first thing some fireigners learn when they come to America is how to say "NIG&#%&r" 30 years later, some black folk are running around talkin bout how if you add an "a" to the ending, rather than an "r" - its not all bad..
