There have been a spate of hate crimes against Asians all over this country recently.

In New York City, a young man used a box-cutter knife to slash Noel Quintana’s face on a New York subway during the morning commute. Quintana, a 61-year-old Filipino immigrant, was rushed to the hospital, where he received more than 100 stitches.

CRT activists blame white nationalism for these hate crimes against Asian Americans. However, all perpetrators in these cases were non-Asian minorities. Asian Americans are concerned that CRT activists intentionally ignoring this inconvenient truth may result in the government misallocating resources and failing to protect Asian American communities from hate crimes.

calling it "a hateful, divisive, manipulative fraud."

Dems: You say that like it's a bad thing.

Critical Race Theory, giant brain sucking sounds follow it wherever it is believed.

LOL, Asians are about to find out how Racist they are and why there is so much "Legitimate Anger" directed at them from "poor mistreated" Negroes.

Asian Americans have felt the most harm from CRT in education. Activists claim that teaching math and science perpetuates “white privilege.” They’re more interested in indoctrinating kids with identity politics, intersectionality and race struggles.

In an elementary school in Cupertino, California, where 94 percent of the students are non-white, a math teacher told third-graders in a math class that they live in a white-dominated culture, and had them rank themselves according to their “power and privilege” on an identity map. Asian parents organized a protest, demanding the school stop teaching racism to their children and start teaching actual math instead.

One Chinese-American parent explained that CRT’s emphasis on dividing society into oppressors and oppressed based on skin color reminded him of the bloody class struggle in Mao’s Cultural Revolution.

Asian parents are also alarmed about attempts to change admissions standards for colleges and top high schools at the expense of Asian American children. CRT activists have been pushing for lowering admission standards—or the complete removal of difficult entrance exams—to top high schools because “too many Asians” are in good schools, and Asians are so “over-represented” that these schools are not “diverse.” These were the arguments New York City mayor Bill de Blasio used to eliminate the Specialized High Schools Admissions Test.

He wanted to replace it with a new admissions process based on race, so the student bodies of New York City’s elite public high schools would mirror the city’s overall population composition and not be dominated by Asian kids.

As post 2 points out, the attacks on Asian Americans are mostly by other non-white, non-Asians. To say it’s White nationalists being the bad guys is inaccurate.

It’s all BS teachings anyway and the words “race theory” proves that out.

I watched the 1975 Vietnamese evacuation up close while assigned to Hickam AFB, Hawaii. They arrived with either a suitcase or a sack. The first generation got on its feet and the second generation went mainstream. There was no special sympathy or programs for them. They just did it. I would like to ask Black apologists how the Vietnamese can do this. I think they would change the subject.

When are these geniuses going to realize that the biggest white oppressor/slave master of all times was Karl Marx?

Add to that the fact that very few spoke any English when they arrived in the US, but learned the language as fast as they could.

My wife (Vietnamese) doesn’t like being called Asian; she identifies as oriental. She tells me that Asians are Indians and Pakistanis.

Well, the Vietnamese were not held back by white supremacy. And slavery. They don't have the legacy of slavery that is so debilitating to us. That is why we need reparations, honky mother******.

I thought using the term “oriental” was racist. I do know not to mix up Chinese, Korean, or Japanese.

And “Asian Americans” voted more Democratic than Latinos in the last two presidential elections.

It’s a pipe dream like getting the Jewish vote other than the orthodox. Asians are not westerners.

I’ve heard apparently Asians don’t vote often because they don’t want to be called for jury duty.

Also, the Asians in my area (I live in a heavily Asian area) don’t really want schools to reopen, interestingly. When surveyed, only 8% of families in the most heavily Asian high school in my district voted to come back to hybrid (2 days/week), while 60% of the majority white high schools did.

White - Asians
And what a ridiculous monicker. “Asian”. There must be 100 ethnicities on Asia.
