@Halfmoonstream1 It is pretty common knowledge that China is a brutal dictatorship. Being in the investment industry, my research means I have to have an understanding of geopolitical influences on markets. For a more in depth understanding follow investigative journalist @samcooper

“We do not take direction from a foreign government about where Canadian MPs can travel internationally," Conservative MP Michael Chong said in a statement.

@girltruther Lol! as expected!
You said you dont watch any media. How did you learn about China's methods then? Sounds like you are not naive,must be quite knowledgeable about that. Please do enlighten me.
English
@Halfmoonstream1 You clearly are very naive on China's methods and your accusations are mere speculation

some WHlTE men harassed an Asian girl so much that she started crying and when she started recording they all hid their faces like cowards 🥀
but if these guys were people of colour this would have gone viral by now

@girltruther Per Wikipedia, his dad came to Canada over 70 yrs ago. I doubt his very distant cousins in hk, if there is any, have any influence over him. Not sure whether they even know each other. Why would China harrass those people? what can China gain from doing that stupid thing?
English
@Halfmoonstream1 Lol!!! I don't watch any media. They're all a bunch of propaganda spreading government funded BS. Not sure how you would know that's a lie. Do you know his family?

@aquarisunz Asian Americans do not control school admissions. Talk to those who do.

@Halfmoonstream1 @OBaraka72552 This bitch is from Canada so why is she showing your location?

Asians want the American college entrance system to be like the Gaokao (the Chinese entrance exam) where the only thing that should count is your test score. Sadly, for them, that will never happen in the USA.
Queen Thicktoria, Esq. never writes pictures!@VeeCeeMurphy76
The fact that some Asians feel entitled to an Ivy League education is precisely why they're not getting selected for these schools. Get some fucking imagination and some damned grit! There are many paths to success.

The problem with Chinese nationalists is that they believe that the Chinese are uniquely gifted, and not products of an economic system that's fundamentally superior to capitalism.
In their arrogance, they forget that, like them, Indians are victims of colonial extraction too.

@Wander4B @AngelicaOung Indians should eliminate public defecation before commenting on anything else in the world. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

@5N2HBAmNUjjhPsY That is what the Japanese trying to do. Remember Japan even attacked pearl harbor! The US and China worked together to fight Japanese in Asia.
English
@girltruther He lied that China harassed his very distant family in hongKong.If you have lived in hongkong, you would know that is a complete lie. But, hey, you are a conservative and probably believe the media. you probably also believe the uyghur genocide, a lie debunked by many travellers.

@Halfmoonstream1 @globalnews What makes him dishonest? Please elaborate so I can understand

@poppy4161 @TampaWoman1965 Honestly,I have seen so many blacks post racist stuff against Asians. Many cite this one tweet from one single Asian Yiatin Chu. And her tweet didn't mention anything about blacks. I am against racism of all sorts. All races should come together to make life better for everyone.
English
@Halfmoonstream1 @TampaWoman1965 Racism doesn't benefit Asian, white, South Asian or Latino people yet they willfully engage in it and use it to oppress black people
English
Black people told Asians not to allow white people to use them to abolish Affirmative Action because they would turn it against Asians, now here we are.
Yiatin Chu@ycinnewyork
The same has been felt by Asians when applying to selective colleges for decades. We knew our children had to accomplish way above others to earn the limited spots Ivy+ were willing to give us. The SFFA v Harvard case revealed the extent of the discrimination. Even with SCOTUS ruling that affirmative action is unconstitutional, medical schools like UCLA and Yale continue to evade. Thank goodness @CivilRights @AAGDhillon are pursuing them to comply.

@StopShoutBlog @girlgriot I thought you were against racism. Turns out you are the most racist!
English
@girlgriot They brag about how much money they have.
Why don't they found their own schools & set up an endowment?
Why do they have to be parasites, not contributors, riding on the coat tails of others?
English
@Zephani167197 Why do you say this? you are implying blacks can not compete in a merit based system. Why are you so racist against black people??
English
@wildflower_xo_ Exactly! This should be the focus. Blacks or Asians should all come together on this. Stop fighting each other. Dont let the real big issue slide.
English
@Halfmoonstream1 Yes yes yes!! Also, heavy on the medical sector! I wouldn't want a legacy student doctor doing heart surgery because their Grandpappy was a foot doctor who graduated in 1972. They need to get in schools based on their own merit!!

Omg stfu and take it out on the legacy admissions. 🙄 You are being sore losers.
English
@ModerateNYArgue @ericstait @charlesmurray i agree with you. I was just saying extra curriculars doesn't have much to do with being a good doctor,but knowledge and skills and aptitude do.
English
@Halfmoonstream1 @ericstait @charlesmurray What are the metrics to being a good doctor that Asian Americans would fundamentally be worse at than other applicants? I’d be fascinated to hear what they are and why Asians wouldn’t do well on those
English
I’m happy to believe you’re a terrific physician. Interpreting the implications of statistical means and distributions is also a complicated thing. Your posts make me think that’s not something you have concentrated on.
Dr Terry Simpson@drterrysimpson
One of the things I continue to find remarkable in this debate is how many people look at Black students scoring in the 95th percentile on the MCAT — often higher than the average matriculant at most American medical schools — and still conclude they were admitted “only because of race.” These are objectively elite academic performers. Many scored higher than applicants admitted to excellent medical schools across the country. And yet some people persist in speaking as though the mere existence of Black students at Yale is proof that standards collapsed and that unnamed “more deserving” Asian applicants were robbed. At that point, the conversation is no longer about MCAT scores. It is about an inability to imagine that highly accomplished Black students belong in elite institutions. What also fascinates me is how quickly social media pundits become absolute authorities on physician selection, while dismissing the judgment of admissions committees at institutions that have spent generations training world-class physicians and scientists. Medicine is harder — and more human — than sorting percentiles on a spreadsheet.

@powdercuff Are you sure your tweet isnt racist? Would you like to be talked about this way? Are you against racism?
English
Their mommy and daddy told them that if they got straight A’s and played the violin, they’d get in anywhere. As someone who is attending an elite institution, (I had to interview to get in) you also have to have a personality. Likability is essential. Most of them are robots.
Theonidas@TheoIsFriendly
Asian Americans don’t think we should be at Ivy League at all. That’s why they’re making a big deal about a handful of black students It’s really that simple
English
@Chosen1Dreams Wow, so you are a racist just like the white supremists? What a supprise
English
@jamujawa1025 @rirenten Black Americans have a history of being banned from these institutions. Why don’t Asians want to attend their schools back in Asia?
English
the context you’re intentionally leaving out is that there are almost 8x more asian applicants than black applicants but disclosing that wouldn’t fit ur agenda lmfao
AAGHarmeetDhillon@AAGDhillon
At Yale Medical School, a black applicant is 29 times more likely to be invited to interview than an Asian with equally strong academics. Today, @CivilRights told Yale that its use of race in admissions is ILLEGAL—and that @TheJusticeDept will step in to enforce Title VI. justice.gov/opa/pr/justice…
English
@ModerateNYArgue @ericstait @charlesmurray And extra curriculars have nothing to do with being a good doctor.
English
@ericstait @charlesmurray Here’s a similar question: the pool of Asians w/ a mean score equal to top black MCAT scores is about 20-40x larger: all else being equal, that’s the ratio that should occur. Why would 1 race do better in admissions: do black inherently have better extracurriculars/leadership?
English
@DrAPearson @poppy4161 @TampaWoman1965 Right, then know who control school admissions. It's the whites.
English
@Halfmoonstream1 @poppy4161 @TampaWoman1965 Maybe like... getting into grad school? Which is now more difficult because we're Black, and folks see us as inherently inferior, and deny us admissions, while still letting in legacy applicants who haven't earned their place?
