You dodged the question, shocker.

If white privilege is what allows people to thrive, why are Asians thriving more than whites?

It's a simple question. Yet it scares the sh*t out of you, because the obvious answer, spits in the face of what you believe.

I never said Asians were nicer. I said they are the most economically successful race in the US. I said that because (1) it's true, and (2) I knew it would make you go berserk, because you cannot explain why that is true, without making your beliefs seem like bullsh*t.

Go ahead. Tell us why Asians are prospering more than any other ethnicity, including whites?

Asians have by far the lowest fatherless rate, 15% (blacks are at 66%). Kids without dads struggle, regardless of race.

Asians have, BY FAR, the highest rate of people graduating from college...Kids who don't get a good education or acquire marketable skills, tend to struggle, regardless of race.

The Brookings Institute found that following 3 simple steps (regardless of race) drastically reduces poverty rates. Graduate from high school, work full time, don't make babies until you are married and over 21.

That's it. It may not be easy (getting educated and working hard for 45 years is hard), but it's simple. It's not complicated. You don't need to be white. You just need to make good decisions.

This is why Asians thrive. Not because they are Asian. But because as a group, they embrace these productive choices.

Make that wrong, jackazz.

You've been absolutely pulverized. Obliterated. Man, that felt good, like going for a run.
