Adventures in Babysitting: The Catch-All Anti-SJW Thread

Certain people briefly indulged, and then fell out favor with BLM.

A great way to spin the libtards out would be to carry around a sign that reads:

(UNBORN) BLACK (BABIES) LIVES MATTER

I think that’s backwards, Bammer. Lefties roll their eyes at that kind of shit. But you could probably start a movement on the right with that.

That would really show them!

[Bammer]

Haha they’re totally spun out now!!

I think what he is getting at is "The Model Minority Myth" itself is the myth and trying to explain away Asian American dominance in nearly every field by claiming such a broad interpretation of what constitutes the 'Asian' identity population that you can include outlier data points doesn't actually prove or disprove anything other than that reducing people to racial categories for the purpose of analysis is an utterly meaningless exercise in self indulgent signalling designed not to explain the truth but instead erase those community's achievements in order to protect existing dogma. I think.

They hated him because he spoke the truth.

I still don't know what the SJW have done to the Asians. Who's being stupid? What's a "model minority myth?" Are we mad because there is one and SJW say their isn't? is it because some AAPIs are poor? Or because some are poor?

NPR: MYTH #4: Asian Americans are fairly represented (in US government)

This "myth" doesn't even exist. It's just a straw man. This isn't even good propaganda. It's like they're trying to make their argument seem dumb.

So, AAPIs aren't fairly represented in government, and no one thinks they are, so NPR is the bad guy b/c they said that some people think they are and then dispelled that?

Yes, lying for a "good cause" (as you imagine they are doing) is absolutely wrong and makes them propagandists. And I hate to break it to you, but it's not for a good cause.

Think about why they would create this straw man and attach it to their other bullshit.

Who are these "some other people" anyway? I'm sure you can find someone on the internet who thinks the problem with the U.S. Government is that it has too many Asians, but I've never actually seen one.

You and me both, brother. What does this have to do with median household income?

So, they're citing a survey, not "some other people."

The recent LAAUNCH survey also found that almost half of Americans incorrectly believe that Asian Americans are overrepresented or fairly represented in senior positions within American companies, politics, media or other realms.

THAT part I understand. Economic attainment measures, like median household income, are a proxy for success in the marketplace. If the Asian cohort, whatever that is, has high achievement in that area then it means they are successfully competing in the market. If your foundational principle is that the market is rigged so only white people succeed, then Asian success presents quite the conundrum because it allows white people to point to Asians and say "see, you are obviously wrong. they are doing great, often better than we are. The system is not rigged. Follow the Asian 'model' and we don't need to tear down the system". So rather dealing with that reality, what we are seeing here is someone attempting to problematize Asian American success.
