White and black lens meaning the country is first for the white and black people of the country? The reason I feel this way is because stop Asian hate was popular for a couple of weeks but then was forgotten. We discriminate against them in higher university to allow for more black students. Native Americans were given villages but they are in really bad conditions Hispanics are a larger minority but there’s no representation for them in American movies. Indians, Muslims, etc might have it the worst. It’s better to not even live here at all if you are from this group.
Do you feel like Americans see the world in a white and black view only?
For a long time blacks were the only large, visible minority in the US. There have always been Asians , Latinos, Indians etc but they were in small numbers. In the American mind when the whites think of minorities they think of blacks first. As far as I can tell it stuck. Every other minority who is not black is "other". Also , blacks as a whole make a shit ton of noise and have been trained by the media to believe that every white man and his dog wants to hang them from a tree and that the entire world if rigged against them. If you are honest and push aside all the politically correct bullshit you will observe the following:
There are many racial minority groups in the US but is the blacks that :
-riot -burn cities down -pull unlucky whites ( or "others" ) out of their car and beat them to a pulp -participate in smash and grade - commit a huge number of murders , assaults , muggings , thefts , break ins, when considering they are only 14% of the US population. -vandalize property
I am not saying that other races are all a bunch of saints but when it comes to blacks a high percentage of them (relative to other races) commit a ton of violent crimes.
Also , many blacks are very, very hostile to non-black minorities. I have often heard blacks say how it is the immigrants (i. e latinos , Asians) that represent a threat to them and that they should be kicked out of the country.
I have lived in several different states from Texas to the East coast to West coast and I always see the same thing ; hostile blacks , high crime rate for blacks , mindset of victim hood for blacks. Due to work I have spent a significant time with Mexicans, Cubans, Puerto Ricans , Chinese, Philipinos, and to a lesser extent Middle Easterners in the US - and by far and large the only group where I can feel a certain level of hostility towards me - and where I am frosty AF is if there are large numbers of blacks around. Some people may call be a racist but whatever -and I am not saying that every single black person in the US is like that ; I have met many nice black fold over the years but sadly this mindset is present in a large number of black Americans. I speak the truth as I see it. It would be nice if the country were not this way but it is.
Hey reject, who was in the 1700's who did the riots and violence it wasn't blacks blacks were slaves, ehile they had the tea party tax riots, hangings of people they didn't agree with, and businesses being set on fire and more and then that lead to a war and the making of standalone America in 1776 because of violence because nobody took the mistreatment of the queen and then you got thr civil war and the riots of people who opposed the union and Abraham Lincoln and they got down and burned stuff down too and were very violent because the South wants to keep slaves so they eventually broke off from the US and caused the civil war.
Many men died because they wanted to enslave humans. Then you got yout local KKK who operated of modern terroism for decades and killing innocent people, rape and more and got away with and police forces that agreed and were apart of the KKK so they did nothing to protect the people. When Heisenhower signed the first civil rights bill in the 50's it caused "crazy whites" who are still alive today who were outside calling little black kids the N WORD and showing them murdered vlack baby dolls and burning cars and throwing rocks through the window attacking random business. It got so bad the President had to call in Martial Law and deploy MP's and the Airbourne Units to protect the kids going to school because the police would not. So Yeah when it came to our rights we adpated and did just what White Americans did to get their freedom and to be respected in this country as American citizens as well. So don't go saying that violence came from nowhere no it came from white americans and we do everything you did, just today whites dont fight for theree freedom cause that did that YEARS AGO. Your ignorant to deny history and that's sad
@Fuentes NEWS FLASH: I don't live in the year 1789 or 1930 or what not. I live in the year 2022. This is the problem with you leftists - "oh the big bad white man stole us from Africa and made us pick all of his cotton ... Oh way back in Bumfuck, Kansas in 1923 litttle Tyrone whistled at a white woman and then the KKK got thier panties into a bunch and hung his ass from a tree! And thats why we hate the white man!!! And this is why in 2022 we want to kill other people ( because of shit that happened generations ago)
Indeed bad stuff happened IN THE PAST but I live in this year 2022 and what I described above is what is happening in the year 2022 and in very recent history - not 300 years ago.
What a dumb dumb, i gave you history thatead up today i didn't say thats an excuse or the reason again your ignorant & angry with facts im telling you, that you can't say all blacks ate violent because they fought their rights when infsct White Americans did the same i listed every date since tge US was built til 2022. Just look at Antifa and all the SJW'S today all white and rioting and attacking people. It's culture blacks learned from whites to riot. So you can't say its all BLACKS you REJECT.

Your question is a direct result of a constant barrage of race based policies that have been going on since the Obama administration. He made everything about race. This was continued with Biden's hiring policies. He constantly brags that he has the most diverse administration. Sadly, nothing is mentioned about competence however. He recently hired a Supreme Court justice based entirely on skin color, the very definition of racism. Policies like quotas in college admissions and awarding government subsidies to only certain minority groups only serve to further divide and already fractured citizenship.
No, I don't think so. As far as I know the United States of America is one of the most diverse countries in the world. I've never heard about Asians being discriminated in universities, they usually get into good schools and then have high paid jobs. Also anyone who knows what happens in the US knows that is not easy to be black there. If you feel that things are bad in the US, then you should try to be a non-white person or a foreign living in Portugal.
Ok, then we should agree to disagree. I respect your opinion but I don't agree with it.

What representation do Asians have? It’s funny you only point to Asians having good jobs they rightfully earned but you won’t talk about Hispanics, Indians, native Americans or other minorities because you know I have a point.

Google the Indian who had a 3.8 gpa, perfect sat scores and couldn’t get into Harvard. There’s a lot of these cases.
I'm not going to argue with you. You're just trying to attack black people and I'm not going to participate in that. Like I've said before, I respect your opinion but I disagree with you.
My euro freinds make fun of me for looking at things so binary. I've started noticing it too with my irl freinds and family here in the states. The way tv news is presented, stuff on Twitter, always so either/or and never complex system. It's like we can't take 'its complicated' as an answer.
Is it just something in the schools? I don't know y we think in black and white but I know we do
Whites made noise in this country which is why the US was formed in 1776 & the civil war was won by the United States and not the Confederate.
Blacks made noise in this country which caused us to become natural citizens in a country we were born in and been in For decades.
The rest of the minorties who feel discriminated agaisnt mostly choose to not assimilate with Americans and choose to only hire their people and ignore Americans when they need work, healthcare or other issues and then when people start to bully them, they cry for help. And expect blacks to march and yell for them and civil rights but didn't care about us before when we needed jobs or proper healthcare.
Gotta stand up for yourselves and assert yourselves as Americans like everyone else did. Because nobody else here will do it for you.
In the USA, Whites and Asians are both discriminated against for college entrance, free money for college, jobs, and promotions. The only people that are privileged in the USA by laws and policies are Black people and women. It doesn't matter if someone disagrees with that statement or not, statistics prove it and the laws are still active today. Only racists and democrats (pretty much the same thing) deny it.

Here is the disturbing part for me. If you go to a leftist and you say “hey, what about these minorities?” They will blow it off. If you go to republicans and say “hey, what about these minorities.” They won’t care either so things will never change.
Republicans want everyone to earn what they get based on individual merit. Democrats want specific groups to get extra regardless of qualifications and they discriminate based on race and gender.
Yeah! This is actually a phenomenon in American politics that foreigners have pointed to me many times. Americans only see world events through the lens of American social conscience. So all that racial tension, our wars, our economic policy. Americans just have a habit of assuming that the world operates in the context of our world view.

A new apartheid is being tried right now. Who are the people hurting the Asians in the streets? There's your answer. Do you remember April 1992? Koreans had to defend themselves against one segment of the population during the LA riots. But, these are facts, so I must be racist for even reminding anyone of the truth.

You think Asian hate is bad now wait until china becomes a issue. Lol and they stop you guys from coming into country.
Stop Asian hate wasn't real. It was a way for Asian to get money from government because they lost a lot money during 2020. Like we did in 2016 to the arba countries.
The crime rate against them was lower than crime against everyone else. There was rarely any proof people attacking them for being Asian.
