Asian Americans Should Take Their Loyalty And Their Vote Somewhere Else

A former employee of YouTube (a subsidiary of Alphabet, parent of Google) alleged in a recently filed lawsuit that YouTube is discriminating against white and Asian men. “YouTube last year stopped hiring white and Asian males for technical positions because they didn’t help the world’s largest video site achieve its goals for improving diversity,” the suit alleges.

Liberal discrimination against white men is nothing new, but many people are caught by surprise to see such explicit discrimination against Asian males in the name of diversity from one of the most progressive companies in one of the most liberal zip codes. After all, don’t liberals always define diversity in terms of external traits such skin colors?

Once Again, Asian Americans Are Punished By Their Own Success.

Silicon Valley owes much of its impressive success to Asians, which make up the largest ethnic group in the Valley. In 2010, the percentage of Asian tech workers jumped from 39 percent to more than 50 percent in Santa Clara, San Mateo, Alameda, Contra Costa and San Francisco counties combined, according to Census Bureau statistics.

Asian workers make up 34 percent of Google’s staff, 41 percent of Facebook’s staff, 57 percent at Yahoo, and 60 percent at LinkedIn. The Asian workforce’s dominance in the tech industry isn’t the result of any special favorable recruiting policies, but is largely the result of Asian families’ emphasis on STEM education, which creates a large pool of capable, tech savvy workers.

Even though Asians are well represented in the tech workforce, lots of them feel they are still being held back by an invisible “bamboo ceiling.” Many Asians believe cultural biases, such as “Asians are good with numbers and technical stuff but not so good with people thus are not good management material,” prevent them from further career advancement.

Same with American universities.

I was terribly disappointed to learn that 70% of Asians voted for Obama, twice.

I noticed Asian dads were being used as stupid guys in commercials lately, a spot normally reserved for white guys.

It’s the American dream: be hated by liberals. That’s when you know you are successful.

In High Tech America, “Asian” is the smart Indian guy being discriminated against.
In England, “Asian” are the grooming & rape gang POS Moozies.
In California college admissions, “Asian” is the smart Japanese kid denied a place.

Language and words used to have meaning.

The Left has bastardized so much of western culture.

[DIRTYSECRET]

Asians are almost. Little ones.

The fatal flaw in the Asian psyche is their willingness to submit to totalitarianism. Until they overcome that, they will stay on the democrat plantation.

Chinese Americans traditionally tended to be Republicans because of their cultural emphasis on business and entrepreneurship.

Caught by surprise?

Do some people not pay attention? UCLA and Cal Berkeley were known to discriminate against Asian applications for years now

God forbid they should have more than 38% in a freshman class

"Do some people not pay attention? UCLA and Cal Berkeley were known to discriminate against Asian applications for years now"

For decades.

“Do some people not pay attention? UCLA and Cal Berkeley were known to discriminate against Asian applications for years now!

Add UC Davis to your list for pre veterinarians, pre dental or pre medical school and their RN BS programs. That has been going on in the early 70’s.

Big difference between being smart and being wise.

UCLA: University of Caucasians Lost among Asians. :)

[A_Former_Democrat]

Haha

UTA: University of Turks n Asians

[jttpwalsh]

University of California for Latinos and Asians :)

I trust that this bias against Asian applicants isn't being extended to H1-B holders.

How else would Google/Facebook/Instagram/Snapchat/Amazon/Apple turn a reasonable profit?

Thanks SeekAndFind. Leland Yee just got sentenced to a mere five years in prison; besides his opposition to the 2nd Amendment, he was also part of a gun smuggling ring out of the Philippines. OTOH, he was also a major opponent to illegal measures to end-run or ignore Prop 209, which outlaws racial quotas in Cali's university admissions. Yee's activities as a smuggler may have overlapped Fast and Furious, yet it's Yee heading off to prison...

Thf FANG companies also support expansion of H1B visas, which has an impact on how much money they don't have to pay Americans of Asian or any other ethnic background.

Since the beginning, America has been hellbent on discriminating rather than accepting a system of merit. It’s like a curse. I hated it before I was born and I still do!

I think many them felt they had “obligation” to vote for first nonwhite President...You know all the talk about minorities being united...

I think Dem poiticians, who are Asian-Americans, support affirmative action...I am sure many of them would concede that affirmative action does not help Asian-American students...But, they would say that Asian-Americans should stand together with blacks and Hispanics in any case...
