Asians over at reddit are complainging about Affirmative acction

[Mission249]

I would have gave him the
So why you can’t do that without shytting on Black people?

his answer is a cop out

It's only a cop-out if they're trying to get what they want and look good to black people at the same time. But they're not. They can't cop-out of something they never cared to do.

To me he's saying: we don't attack legacy admissions cause we don't have leverage there (yet), but they will attack affirmative action cause they do.

A lot of immigrants in the US basically leapt on the coat tails of the African American civil rights movement, got what they needed, and leapt off.

Nah trust me I know it's mostly Cacs and Asians out here. Like I said, it's worth a try given the state of black people in Cali. We're nearly a permanent underclass in a state that is technically the 4th largest economy in the world. That's bad.
If you were there when 209 was passed that means you're an oldhead then ? Were there more black people in the state back then compared to now, just curious.

in the Bay at least, yes, way more. The total number in the whole state is probably slightly mor e now, but I think California's population has doubled in that time, so black people are a much lower percentage. Also have been shuttled out to less desirable far flung exurbs.

If you want me to keep it a buck, our only chance is to get jobs in sectors that pay well (like medicine and tech). Similar to how Asians have done. This allows you to get money circulating. Higher earning black people = more money flowing in our community as more people have money to open small businesses. It also means that our kinds get to grow up in safe environments. They can then study and get good jobs themselves. The problem is that we're kept out of such jobs in the first place. There's a reason why when Immigrants move here, they tell their kids : "you'll become a doctor or an engineer". I understand that ADOS are trying to get white peopl to atone for their sins by giving tangibles, but I honestly think that it will never happen. Especially since Asians and hispanics will say "what about our tangibles as well?".

Community needs to be better first

IT's we out here. I don't know if yall are similar to the IT's in the navy, but we had uor own space called Radio control. We usually just sat there and watched movies on watch because things rarely broke (I was on a new carrier). Also gave me a lot of time to study for my Security+ cert.

Which Carrier we're you on? When I worked for the Navy as a contractor. You had ships flying CASREP's all the time for IT shyt being broke.

Used to piss me off because we had people who had just left the ship on a service call.

New poll has the yes vote for this trailing by 9, 39% to 48%. This seems like it's going to be a bad year for a lot of the props

The carrier is currently in San Diego. Lmao yea contractors hated CASREPS from what I saw. We try to fix it ourselves first before submitting a CASREP. The whole point of a CASREP is because we either don't have the parts to fix it ourselves, or we need professionals to fix the problem.

The younger IT guys onboard we're good about trying to fix shyt themselves. But some of those older dudes who jumped from ship to ship we're lazy as hell. Imagine forcing someone to travel halfway across the world because you claim something is an emergency when it's not.

shyt used to get me so heated when you found it was a waste of time. Or if you showed up at a port but the ship already left your ass.

They already made rank and are just trying to do their time and get their benefits. The younger guys are trying to learn by doing .

Yes, we know that this is what whites do, but there is a culture of anti-Blackness in Asia that allows these whites to do this.
