Harvard Hates Asians (may be offensive to White liberals)

Asians have known this for awhile, and they call it the “Asian Tax.” Meaning Asians have to be more accomplished than peers from other racial groups to get into elite schools.

An Asian applicant with 1140 SAT has same chance of getting into a school as a Black applicant with score of 690, or a White applicant with score of 1000.

“Asian Tax” of 50 points off of your SAT score when applying to elite schools.

Asians noticed this “Asian Tax” sometime in the 1980s and in 1988, some of them asked the Department of Education to investigate Harvard’s admissions policies and practices. At that time, Harvard undergrad was 20% Asian. The findings from that investigation: Asians are at a disadvantage because fewer of them are applying as legacies and recruited athletes and they’re not well rounded enough.  Fair enough, most Asians accepted the conclusion and began to make adjustments. It’s 2019 and Asian enrollment has remained at around 20% since then, even though Harvard’s incoming class size has remained the same and:

The 2018 Harvard admissions lawsuit shows that if Harvard were to admit students based solely on grades and test scores and extracurriculars, Asians would be 48% of the freshman class. If preferences for recruited athletes and legacies are given, it’d be 43%.

Harvard rates applicants on a scale of 1-6 — 1 being the highest — in the following categories:

  • Academic
  • Extracurricular
  • Athletic
  • Personal Traits (as determined by reading of Personal Statement, I assume)
  • Recommendation letters (2 teachers, counselor)
  • Alumni (interview) personal and Overall rating

Asian applicants score overall highest in Extracurriculars, Academic, Recommendation Letters, and Alumni Interview. They score overall the lowest on Personal Traits. Harvard consistently rated Asian applicants lower than others on traits like “humor, sensitivity, grit, leadership, integrity, helpfulness, courage, kindness and many other qualities” when determining the personal rating according to an analysis of more than 160,000 student records.

Asian applicants score the highest on Recommendation Letters (written by people who typically know the applicant for years) and Alumni Interview yet lowest on Personal Traits. Let that sink in. How is that possible? Blatant racial discrimination behind closed doors that’s later repackaged as liberal benevolence to the public — affirmative action for Blacks and Hispanics — is how.

Because I don’t think the rejected Asian applicant who has a perfect SAT score and is valedictorian and lettered in two sports and did a solo at Carnegie Hall at age 14 lacks “grit.” And it’s the Asians who have the “courage” to open businesses in the most dangerous neighborhoods in America, the sort of neighborhoods White liberals love to talk about helping but never visit.  Maybe the problem is that too many Asian applicants lack the “sensitivity” White liberals are looking for in an applicant — they don’t spend enough time talking about their good intentions while refusing responsibility for their fucked up results, choosing instead to blame others for the failure of their ideas and methods.

White liberals decided that these gooks — defending Koreatown during LA Riots because LAPD was too chickenshit to protect the neighborhood — lack the courage to deserve a spot at Harvard.

Difference Between a Liberal and a Conservative

The difference between a liberal and a conservative isn’t in their intentions — they both want to make the world a better place — it’s that liberals are in love with their intentions while conservatives only care about results. Put simply, liberals are covert narcissists prone to bouts of envy, they’re sentimentalists in love with the sound of their crying sessions about injustice and suffering. They post pretentious ignorant shit like this on Facebook:

Anyone who doesn’t care about Human Rights should UNFRIEND ME NOW.

because deep down, they love virtue signaling too much to figure out that much of the non-Western world hears “Human Rights” as a Westerner’s polite battle cry to take over the world and shove democracy (which, to the surprise of most Americans, most people in the world don’t want) and the US petro-dollar down everyone’s throats. To which the virtue signaler replies: “that’s not what I meant.” Some of us don’t care what you meant, we only care about what happens. Unintended consequences, anyone?

Here’s another difference between a conservative and a liberal: when a conservative doesn’t like you, he’ll point a shotgun at your face and tell you to get the fuck off his lawn. A liberal who doesn’t like you will invite you to her house and if you don’t want to go, she’ll insist and then try to turn you into the sort of person she likes. The conservative is an asshole while the liberal is a tyrant. (Combine the two and you get American imperialism).

Unintended Consequences: Affirmative Action’s Affect on Blacks and Hispanics

What would you think about yourself if you got into school with significantly lower scores and grades than average? Pick:

a) I’d feel like a fraud, undeserving of my place in school
b) I’d justify my place by emphasizing the wrongs done to my kind
c) I’d convince myself that those who score higher have terrible personalities while mine is much better than theirs

Option A – Imposter Syndrome – is the best option. The low self-esteem can drive one to work harder to catch up.

Option B is the play victim option. Waste life getting a PhD in Ethnic Studies or Sociology to make a living out of managing victim status.

Option C is the vanity option. A lifetime of narcissistic delusions. That would explain why Blacks have the highest self-esteem of any group, despite performing the worst in life.

Your kid needs surgery. What would think if you found out that your surgeon — only two years out of residency — got into medical school despite getting a “C” in O-chem and had below average MCAT scores? Would you find another doctor or would you tell yourself that test scores and grades don’t matter much, they’re racially biased anyway, and that this surgeon deserves a chance?

You take the toughest classes, graduate at the top of your class, have perfect scores, and contribute to school clubs. (This isn’t an exaggeration, many Asian students with such a profile are getting rejected from elite schools). You watch significantly less accomplished students in your class get into schools you’re rejected from. How do you feel? What are you thinking?

There are more unintended consequences, such as mismatches in student ability and school difficulty that results in significantly lower graduation rates for affirmative action admits and students settling for easier majors, bullshit majors really, in order to graduate.

The point is, study after study shows that this kind of racial discrimination — packaged as White liberal benevolence — hurts a lot of people, especially Blacks and Hispanics. The only ones it helps are White Liberals, and not just because it keeps out Asian students who’d push them closer to the bottom of the grading curve.

Intended Consequences: Personal Salvation for White Liberals

Affirmative action doesn’t take spots from White applicants. It takes them from Asian applicants, as evidenced by what happened when UC Berkeley got rid of affirmative action in 1998: Asian population shot up (35% to a high of 48%), but for Whites it stayed the same (and has since fallen from 32% to 22% today). The purpose of Affirmative Action isn’t to help Blacks and Hispanics — the mismatch hurts them lots — it’s to make White liberals look benevolent and to keep Asians out because White liberals hate Asians.

Sure, they love Asians who have become the sort of person they like — Champagne Socialists who hate Rednecks.

The person who wrote this yelp review is Asian, June Chu, former Dean of Pierson College at Yale University. White liberals love her because she hates the same people they hate and supports liberal policies such as Affirmative Action.

But they hate that the mere existence of Asians proves White liberal theories about how the world works and how to make it a better place wrong. Asians prove that you don’t need feminism for women to have rewarding careers in fields such as medicine and engineering and business. Asians prove that test scores have less to do with class and more to do with culture. Asians prove that being poor doesn’t make people obese. Asians show that low self-esteem, not high self-esteem, is correlated with high achievement. Asians prove that being a minority in America isn’t crippling. Again, liberals care more about their intentions than results, which means they never blame themselves when their ideas lead to disaster. Instead of adapting their ideas to how people are, they force other people to adapt to their ideas — that’s tyranny, that’s how totalitarianism begins, by telling people what to feel and think. And that’s what left-wing nut case Chairman Mao did when his social and economic programs — including a radical affirmative action program — ruined China, he doubled down and blamed “reactionaries” for the disaster and sent them to re-education camps, where many died.

This Chinaman is a White Liberal. He ruined China. By the time he died, 90 percent of Chinese people lived in poverty.

And doubling down is precisely what White liberals of all races are doing today. When they hear that affirmative action makes people question the intellectual qualifications of ALL Blacks and Hispanics, they call those doing the questioning racists. When they hear that affirmative action induces panic and self-doubt in Blacks and Hispanics, they blame microaggressions and the lack of safe spaces. When they hear that Asians are pissed about the unfairness, they tell them — get this — that Asians owe their success to the civil rights work of Blacks and Hispanics and should therefore step aside. To the White liberal, anyone who doesn’t sing along with the liberal narrative is a deplorable reactionary and must be ostracized, just like in Maoist China.

A pragmatist, Deng Xiaoping, replaced White liberal Chairman Mao. Today, China’s poverty rate is 4% because its leaders only care about results, and not about people’s egos.

I’m not saying that White liberals don’t want to help Blacks and Hispanics. They do but what they don’t realize is that their first priority is to help themselves vis-a-vis “helping” Blacks and Hispanics and whomever else is victim of the day. What they seek through their efforts is personal salvation to alleviate their anxiety and guilt about being White, and that salvation comes from a Black person telling them that they are in fact good people fighting the good fight. That explains why White liberals can continuously and fantastically ignore bad results and blame others for the failure of their ideas and methods. White liberals don’t care that affirmative action makes life worse for most Blacks and Hispanics and introduces a new source of racial tension. They only care that most Blacks support affirmative action. That support, not good results, is what makes the White liberal feel good, similar to a mother who feels good as she watches her children enjoy candy that’s bad for them. It’s sick and twisted.

Are Asians the new Jews?

Look to the past to understand the present — people and institutions don’t change much. When the Jewish population at Harvard went from 7% in 1900 to 25% in 1925, then Harvard president Abbott Lawrence Lowell was alarmed about the cultural damage they might do to Harvard and pushed to cap Jewish enrollment at 15%. Since White Anglo Saxon Pricks (WASP) are a polite bunch, they had to repackage this effort to impose racial quotas as something benign. So they introduced preference for legacies — most legacies were WASPs — and sold it as a way to increase donations from alums and to enhance networking. They also began to evaluate the character of applicants, ostensibly to ensure that only students of high moral character attend Harvard when in fact, they now admit, it was to handicap Jewish applicants. Sounds like the same shit they’re doing to Asian applicants today except now they admit to having kept Jews, but not Asians out.

Look to the past to understand the present.  Not much has changed.

Harvard is a private institution, they can do whatever the fuck they want, just as I can eject from my business any customer I want. What some Asians are looking for from Harvard and other schools isn’t an end to racial quotas — White liberals and anyone else can be as racist as they want, I couldn’t care less —  but an admission that they’re used to keep Asians out. People just want to know where they stand so they can make adjustments and manage expectations. And I’ll take the conservative who tells me to get the fuck off his lawn while pointing a gun at me over the liberal who drags me inside her house and then tries to turn me into someone she likes. I don’t need to be brainwashed, I just need to know if I’m welcomed. Now get the fuck off my lawn.

Frequently Asked Questions #22

General

Is presidential candidate Andrew Yang really going to be hosting a Q and A at Alive Juice Bar on Halloween, as advertised on Facebook? 
What do you think?

Does the owner know he looks and acts like Andrew Yang?
Yes.

Is he endorsing him? 
No.  But he likes that Yang is an accelerationist candidate and supports providing a basic income to as many as possible.

What does “accelerationist” mean?
Someone who wants to accelerate technological change to achieve positive social changes.  We’re close to having the technology to provide universal healthcare at a low low cost; eliminate hunger; significantly reduce all sorts of fatalities. The barriers to these changes are political and social. A lot of people, for instance, don’t want to give up their jobs to robots. Yang’s proposal may make it easier for people to accept the acceleration of change that’ll be painful at first but hopefully beneficial to society.

Have you read his book “The War on Normal People?”
Yes, and we sell it.  $15, tax included.

What do you think about it?
It’s worth reading if you’re interested in how automation *might* affect society, how we arrived to our present situation, and how we can broker a deal between globalists and nationalists.  Note that I didn’t say that it’s a great book, it’s just worth reading.

Is the owner Andrew Yang’s evil doppelganger?

Heath and Nutrition
How many meals a day should I eat?
It’s up to you.  Listen to your body. Some do well with one meal a day, others with six, mix it up as needed.

How soon should I eat after I get up?
Up to you, listen to your body.  I wait until after morning workout to eat, so around three hours after waking up.

How do I listen to my body?
That’s the conundrum.   Most schooling has taught us to not trust our instincts and to not develop our intuition.  It’s not easy to unlearn the bad habits taught in school, they’ve become normal and natural.

Do sports.  Sports — this includes yoga, pilates, dance — activates instincts and gets you in touch with your body.  Then listen for the dialogue between what your body wants and what your mind has been taught to think.  Next, question every habit and idea that you think is normal and natural.  Below are examples:

  • Is sitting in chair healthier than squatting?
  • Is Western democracy the best form of government for all nations?
  • Should I drink orange juice when I have the flu?
  • Does school make people smarter or dumber?
  • Are polite people good people?

Investigate the debates, it’ll be a mind opening experience.  The more you question your assumptions, the more your instincts will kick in and tell you who is full of shit.

Finally, watch stand-up comedy.  Stand-up comedians are the most intuitive social critics around.  They say what we feel and think intuitively but are afraid to express for fear of offending.  We’ll expand on this in another post.

Russell Peters is one of the most successful stand-up comedians in the world. He says Indians are the cheapest people in the world, Chinese the second cheapest, and Jews the third. You know he’s right. He’s so right, he makes $10 million a year, while the dumbfuck Ethnic Studies professor makes $50 thousand a year.

Health and Exercise
What’s the big deal about exercise?
Exercise doesn’t reduce stress, it makes you inured to it.  Exercise is the act of putting yourself in a stressful environment so that you’ll be better adapted to handle similar situations in your everyday life.  The more stressful the exercise, the better adapted you’ll be to handle stressful events at work and at home.  Exercise also works like chemotherapy: you break down the body and mind so that it can repair itself and become even stronger.  

Why does owner push yoga?
It’s the most efficient, balanced, and complete workout he’s ever experienced, and he’s been working out nearly his entire life, at the competitive sports level and with personal and boxing trainers.

Most workouts aren’t balanced — some neglect stretching and core work, others overemphasize strength training or cardio, and sports training usually focuses on skills.  A power vinyasa class, on the other hand, is where stretching, cardio, core work, strength training, and skills like balance and inversions, are equally and fully treated in one hour.  This efficiency is possible because many Vinyasa poses and flows combine, for instance, elements of strength and endurance training, core work, balance skills, and stretching.  Finally, yoga  is easier on the joints, especially when done on a foam floor.  Make it a hot class if you want to make it more stressful, challenging, and rewarding.

So a walk around Greenlake doesn’t count as exercise?
It does if you’re in terrible shape.  If you’re not breaking a sweat and feeling out of your comfort zone, then it’s not exercise.
