So you are saying that a bunch of kids going crazy at an SEC football game doesn't want to assimilate? What do they need ot do to assimilate? How do they qualify as assimilated?

If this is considered "assimilating" what do you consider "not assimilating"?

I grant the that the group photo was only a small part of the student section. I watched a video clip and it was clear there were others nearby. But French used this to point to a bigger and very real problem: universities snd their racist admissions policies that harm Americans. I have no problem with students earning a slot, regardless of ethnicity. I do have a problem with racial discrimination no matter who is favored or harmed. The irony is that in universities, it is often Asians that are discriminated against along with whites and in favor of blacks. That has been an issue for many years. Harvard recently lost a Supreme Court case over it.

The Great Replacement is real and Americans of all backgrounds have legitimate concerns. We don't want the Dem crime wave of murders, raped, and thefts across the country. We don't support the invasion of illegals responsible for much of the violence along with fraud and helping the Dems steal elections. We don't want the illegals who don't speak English getting illegal CDL's and then driving semis on our highways putting us all at risk. They have killed too many Americans already (including multiple from India).

These problems are worse in Europe and Americans don't want that.

You keep saying things like "harm Americans," assuming that Asians and Muslims. Indians, etc., are not "Americans."

Your post admits that the DEI policies you are complaining about disfavor these groups. So how were the people in the photo supposed to represent DEI? Here is a clue--they weren't. They were at that game and in that school because they are smart and work hard. You, French, and all your compadres in this forum know it. But you still can't bring yourself to see them as Americans.

You are upset that they are building churches and doing business with local farmers?

No assimilating is not working, trying to change the structure of the government, committing crimes, etc.

You ask a good question, though. Does remaining a Hindu prevent an Indian from assimilating? Does living in a neighborhood with other Indians mean that an Indian has not assimilated? Does speaking English with an accent mean an Indian has not assimilated?

If you argue against UT spots going to actual foreigners who are not going to stay in America, fine, I probably agree with you. State resources should not go to something that will not benefit the state.

But most of you are arguing that Americans should not be at UT because of their ethnicity, regardless of their intellectual merit.

God is ashamed of you. Your argument is racist and sickening. Period, end of story.



No...they are arguing that American citizenship should not be so easily sold that the demographics of entire States can't switch in a breathtaking short term. Not even a single lifetime.



PS

Westerners are the least racist people on earth....the most welcoming and the least ethno-nationalist

I mean you don't see Africans, East Asians, Israelis, Arabs, or Indians letting in millions of other peoples into their nations do you?

Blaming Texans or Americans for not wanting to be demographically replaced in a single lifetime...while not holding the rest of the world to this same standard is utter and horrible hypocrisy.

What a racist trope. First, you have no idea whether those specific kids are from India, Asia, or Lorena. Second, the more general idea that we are being swamped by Asians or Muslims has zero statistical support. While Asians are Texas's fastest-growing demographic, they comprise about 6% of the state's population, growing at an annual rate of 5-6% compared with an overall growth rate of about 1.5%. In other words, they constitute a small percentage of the population and will remain a minority. Third, America has always been about immigration. The same complaints you are making now were leveled against the Irish, the Italians, Eastern Europeans, and previous generations of Asians.

What really upsets you is not that they won't "assimilate," because they do assimilate. Going crazy at a college football game proves that point.

You and French are upset that so many of them are in the picture because they earned their way into a selective public school. If America is one thing, it is supposed to be a meritocracy.

1. First of all the concept that citizenship should not be so easy to acquire and that mass migration should be slowed down is an opinion....not a trope.

Its a policy idea (expand and increase migration flows...or slow them down). Something to debate.

2. I have NOT made the argument that Asian immigration in Texas (East Asian or Indian subcontinent) is statistically that vast.

The statement I made in the response (and you did not even engage with it) was that Westerners in general are in fact far less racist and ethno-nationalist than other peoples on the planet currently.

That is shown is lots of surveys and data collected all over the world...

You seem very upset that Western peoples might have a problem with mass demographically changing migration levels. And don't seem at all concerned with the hypocrisy of India, Africa, Arab States, China, Israel, Etc. not having the same open door or welcoming stance toward immigrants of different backgrounds.

I mean at some point we have to touch on this "mass migration levels for thee, but not for me" attitude shown by many other Nations & peoples around the world.

3. I do in indeed support a meritocracy. That is the very reason I am against DEI type policies (at Baylor, UT-Austin, or anywhere else). If we can all be certain that a pure meritocracy is at play then it does NOT bother me if UT-Austin or Rice University become majority Asian through a fair & open enrollment process. Let the best grades and tests scores win out.

It is in fact the modern Left in the West that has a big problem with accepting meritocracy and the idea that in a real meritocratic system each group my not be exactly represented via their percentage of the general population.

Apparently not. Conservative groups filed the lawsuits, saying Asians are underrepresented in elite colleges because of DEI. Having been successful, conservatives are not upset that there are too many Asians at elite schools. Get your damn story straight. You have a pretty good idea that the people in the picture that French was upset about were not given their spots at UT; they earned them. If you are really for meritocracy and color-blind admissions, that picture is a success story.

The reason I am not concerned about Indian immigration policy is that they are not keeping anybody from America out of their country. If India and China said we will allow as many American immigrants in as America takes of our citizens, do you think there is some mad rush to get there?

You are making the same argument that racists have made in America for centuries. If someone is smart, willing ot work hard, and law-abiding, bring them in. We need the brain power and the work ethic.

No one has a right legally or morally to blow up anyone else's religious symbols and houses of worship.

But any current population on earth has the absolute inalienable right to determine what other groups of people it invites into its country to live there and be citizens.

[The internet says the first Hindu temple in Texas was built in 1982. Today there are 145 active Temples and 588,500 Indian Americans living in Texas (70% to 80% of them being Hindu). At the very least we can say this strong growth can be debated on the merits of if its helping or hurting the local Texans who lived there before them.

Me personally I have never meet a Hindu that I personally had a problem with or a bad interaction.]

The whole point of America is to love ideals, not groups. I love America because people can immigrate here. You love America as long as it is white.

Give the people w/ the deepest roots in this country priority over everyone else... anything else is cultural suicide.

As you pointed out, Indians arent going to allow foreigners to immigrate to India in mass and steal their jobs because they rightly place their own people first.

I am willing to debate whether Indian migration helps or hurts Texas when I hear one shred of evidence that it hurts. All I can see (and it's your post notes), the only actual objection seems to be "Well, yes, they are smart, work hard, have strong families, and are law-abiding, but gee, they look different."

Give the people w/ the deepest roots in this country priority over everyone else... anything else is cultural suicide.

As you pointed out, Indians arent going to allow foreigners to immigrate to India in mass and steal their jobs because they rightly place their own people first.

America becoming a meritocracy is what is destroying this nation

An anthem for the stupid and lazy.

So you are saying that a bunch of kids going crazy at an SEC football game doesn't want to assimilate? What do they need ot do to assimilate? How do they qualify as assimilated?

If this is considered "assimilating" what do you consider "not assimilating"?


You are upset that they are building churches and doing business with local farmers?

No assimilating is not working, trying to change the structure of the government, committing crimes, etc.

You ask a good question, though. Does remaining a Hindu prevent an Indian from assimilating? Does living in a neighborhood with other Indians mean that an Indian has not assimilated? Does speaking English with an accent mean an Indian has not assimilated?


This monstrosity should be used as target practice by the artillery corps


If it is height that bothers you, I guess we blow up a bunch of crosses too,

If you love India so much why dont you move there?

I feel the same w/ historian and Israel.

You guys seem to love foreigners and foreign countries more than Americans and America but refuse to leave.


The whole point of America is to love ideals, not groups. I love America because people can immigrate here. You love America as long as it is white.

I love America bcs my family has been here for 300 years and turned this nation into the most powerful country on earth.

You hate me because I am a white Anglo-American and I refuse to let you erase me.

American is NOT just an ideal....its a physically place...a country and a homeland for its citizens

That country does have various ideals. And some are in fact very universal...and some that are particular to Americans. And the country is itself quite open and welcoming of new comers in general.

But people like Sir Roger Scruton have long explained that a country is a tangible living community bound by a specific landscape/homeland, shared language, customs, and inherited institutions, history, and values.

So its more than just "ideals". And it would be as strange to love America for only ethno reasons as it is for you to love it only because people can immigrate to it.


"Blood & Soil" vs "Ideals uber Alles"....these are both strange and seem very fanatical.

If you argue against UT spots going to actual foreigners who are not going to stay in America, fine, I probably agree with you. State resources should not go to something that will not benefit the state.

But most of you are arguing that Americans should not be at UT because of their ethnicity, regardless of their intellectual merit.

God is ashamed of you. Your argument is racist and sickening. Period, end of story.



No...they are arguing that American citizenship should not be so easily sold that the demographics of entire States can't switch in a breathtaking short term. Not even a single lifetime.



PS

Westerners are the least racist people on earth....the most welcoming and the least ethno-nationalist

I mean you don't see Africans, East Asians, Israelis, Arabs, or Indians letting in millions of other peoples into their nations do you?

Blaming Texans or Americans for not wanting to be demographically replaced in a single lifetime...while not holding the rest of the world to this same standard is utter and horrible hypocrisy.

What a racist trope. First, you have no idea whether those specific kids are from India, Asia, or Lorena. Second, the more general idea that we are being swamped by Asians or Muslims has zero statistical support. While Asians are Texas's fastest-growing demographic, they comprise about 6% of the state's population, growing at an annual rate of 5-6% compared with an overall growth rate of about 1.5%. In other words, they constitute a small percentage of the population and will remain a minority. Third, America has always been about immigration. The same complaints you are making now were leveled against the Irish, the Italians, Eastern Europeans, and previous generations of Asians.

What really upsets you is not that they won't "assimilate," because they do assimilate. Going crazy at a college football game proves that point.

You and French are upset that so many of them are in the picture because they earned their way into a selective public school. If America is one thing, it is supposed to be a meritocracy.

1. First of all the concept that citizenship should not be so easy to acquire and that mass migration should be slowed down is an opinion....not a trope.

Its a policy idea (expand and increase migration flows...or slow them down). Something to debate.

2. I have NOT made the argument that Asian immigration in Texas (East Asian or Indian subcontinent) is statistically that vast.

The statement I made in the response (and you did not even engage with it) was that Westerners in general are in fact far less racist and ethno-nationalist than other peoples on the planet currently.

That is shown is lots of surveys and data collected all over the world...

You seem very upset that Western peoples might have a problem with mass demographically changing migration levels. And don't seem at all concerned with the hypocrisy of India, Africa, Arab States, China, Israel, Etc. not having the same open door or welcoming stance toward immigrants of different backgrounds.

I mean at some point we have to touch on this "mass migration levels for thee, but not for me" attitude shown by many other Nations & peoples around the world.

3. I do in indeed support a meritocracy. That is the very reason I am against DEI type policies (at Baylor, UT-Austin, or anywhere else). If we can all be certain that a pure meritocracy is at play then it does NOT bother me if UT-Austin or Rice University become majority Asian through a fair & open enrollment process. Let the best grades and tests scores win out.

It is in fact the modern Left in the West that has a big problem with accepting meritocracy and the idea that in a real meritocratic system each group my not be exactly represented via their percentage of the general population.

You had me until point 3. America becoming a meritocracy is what is destroying this nation. Just because an Indian who went through puberty at 11 got a couple more points on a standardized test shouldnt override hundreds of years of history and loyalty to the nation.

you mean all us White Mutts? We have an immigration policy. Let's just follow it. Assimilation is huge. I'm of Irish decent and we were/are "Dirty Irish"....No dogs, No Irish. My people assimilated.

He is trying to troll you...and you are being triggered by it and thus buying into the bait.

No one has a right legally or morally to blow up anyone else's religious symbols and houses of worship.

But any current population on earth has the absolute inalienable right to determine what other groups of people it invites into its country to live there and be citizens.

(The internet says the first Hindu temple in Texas was built in 1982. Today there are 145 active Temples and 588,500 Indian Americans living in Texas (70% to 80% of them being Hindu). At the very least we can say this strong growth can be debated on the merits of if its helping or hurting the local Texans who lived there before them.

Me personally I have never meet a Hindu that I personally had a problem with or a bad interaction.)


I am willing to debate whether Indian migration helps or hurts Texas when I hear one shred of evidence that it hurts. All I can see (and it's your post notes), the only actual objection seems to be "Well, yes, they are smart, work hard, have strong families, and are law-abiding, but gee, they look different."


Yea I mean for the record I don't particularly think Indian migration is hurting Texas.

I think there is abuse in the system for H-1B visas (and other employment migration visas)...but that seems to be getting corrected under the current administration and the abuse of that system is general problem and not confined to one ethnic group.

In my past responses I said specially that people are upset that "American citizenship should not be so easily sold that the demographics of entire States can't switch in a breathtaking short term. Not even a single lifetime."

That is a generally true opinion that many have of the system of mass migration that has taken place for decades. Its not a stance against Indians in particular.... but mass levels of change that many feel are wildly out of control.

Remember, it's only about merit. From that picture, I cannot tell you where any of those folks were born.


Just trying to figure out how low some of the riff raff on here will go. If given a choice between an open racist who tried to take advantage of the widow of a dead hero and a centrist Democrat, the "R" next to the candidate still wins out.

Racist? Wow, that's original.

You're a scum bag loser. UT and all public state schools should absolutely represent TEXAS. They are our universities. This giving preference to non-Texans is bs, whether it's Californians or Indians.

You're broken in the head. You lap up whatever the globalists will throw your way. You'll gladly lessen your children's and grand-children's futures all because the TV tells you to. You sell out all the great things that those who came before you built, and you do it because the TV tells you to. You're an idiot.


And there is no such thing as a centrist democrat anymore. They are all rushing to sell America out to foreign interests and to make America a poorer country.

That anyone in the West daring to have a problem with mass migration seems to trigger you on a deep level. (Especially if its White people who have a problem with it.)

You view migration through a moral lens.....

Foreign born as a percentage of the US population is at an all-time high, right around 15%. Just about where it was in 1890. Immigration contracted sharply from 1920-1970 as our birth rate and life expectancy rose. The places of origin have shifted away from European countires to basically everywhere else in the world, with an emphasis on Mexico and Central America.

First, and maybe I am wrong, but I don't think the immigrants from outside Europe are preventing European immigration. Second, our birth rate is declining and our life expectancy has flat lined. Third, the world has a larger pool of educated people to offer and it is much smaller.

Given that it is hard to understand how we would replace the 100 million people David French wants to deport.

You have that right. And it is immoral for people to say that this "group of people" are a problem. Particulalry when ther eis zero evidence behind the assertion.

So you are saying that a bunch of kids going crazy at an SEC football game doesn't want to assimilate? What do they need ot do to assimilate? How do they qualify as assimilated?

If this is considered "assimilating" what do you consider "not assimilating"?


You are upset that they are building churches and doing business with local farmers?

No assimilating is not working, trying to change the structure of the government, committing crimes, etc.

You ask a good question, though. Does remaining a Hindu prevent an Indian from assimilating? Does living in a neighborhood with other Indians mean that an Indian has not assimilated? Does speaking English with an accent mean an Indian has not assimilated?

Well, it's a bit more than that with Epic City a planned exclusive Muslim enclave, the promoter of the city in the video said the purpose of the city was to bring Islam to the forefront. Of course, bringing Islam to the forefront, would include bringing Sharia law to the forefront.

If there were plans for an Epic City limited to Christian Nationalist and the purpose of it was to bring Christian Nationalism to the forefront, if that were the primary purpose of the city, you would be 100% against it. I too would be against it because I don't believe a specific city should be religion based or restrictive and exclude others, even if it were my favored religion.

This monstrosity should be used as target practice by the artillery corps


If it is height that bothers you, I guess we blow up a bunch of crosses too,

If you love India so much why dont you move there?

I feel the same w/ historian and Israel.

You guys seem to love foreigners and foreign countries more than Americans and America but refuse to leave.


The whole point of America is to love ideals, not groups. I love America because people can immigrate here. You love America as long as it is white.


American is NOT just an ideal....its a physically place...a country and a homeland for its citizens

That country does have various ideals. And some are in fact very universal...and some that are particular to Americans. And the country is itself quite open and welcoming of new comers in general.

But people like Sir Roger Scruton have long explained that a country is a tangible living community bound by a specific landscape/homeland, shared language, customs, and inherited institutions, history, and values.

So its more than just "ideals". And it would be as strange to love America for only ethno reasons as it is for you to love it only because people can immigrate to it.


"Blood & Soil" vs "Ideals uber Alles"....these are both strange and seem very fanatical.

I keep asking the question and none of the racists can answer it. What "language, cusotms, and institutions" are the Asians and Indians hurting?


They may in fact not be hurting any...

I get the strong feeling you are not upset about the debate specifics themselves....you seem angry the debate is happening at all.

That anyone in the West daring to have a problem with mass migration seems to trigger you on a deep level. (Especially if its White people who have a problem with it.)

mass migration does hurt communities and institutions though. It displaces citizens who'd normally fill these roles, it lowers wages, it impacts housing costs, and it burdens government institutions.

There is a place for controlled and limited immigration - Indians absolutely have a place in our work force and can be great people to work with. But it should not come at the expense of the citizenry.

Definitely not voting for French. Thanks for starting this thread.

But you'll vote for a trans-affirming, pro kid-transitioning, zero traditional Christian values, makes up God in his own image, complete liar, and "non-racist" Talarico. OK good for you.

Remember, it's only about merit. From that picture, I cannot tell you where any of those folks were born.


Just trying to figure out how low some of the riff raff on here will go. If given a choice between an open racist who tried to take advantage of the widow of a dead hero and a centrist Democrat, the "R" next to the candidate still wins out.

Racist? Wow, that's original.

You're a scum bag loser. UT and all public state schools should absolutely represent TEXAS. They are our universities. This giving preference to non-Texans is bs, whether it's Californians or Indians.

You're broken in the head. You lap up whatever the globalists will throw your way. You'll gladly lessen your children's and grand-children's futures all because the TV tells you to. You sell out all the great things that those who came before you built, and you do it because the TV tells you to. You're an idiot.


And there is no such thing as a centrist democrat anymore. They are all rushing to sell America out to foreign interests and to make America a poorer country.


Scumbag is thy name. Scumbaggery is thy creed.

First, Texas law regulates the number of out-of-state and international students who attend UT and eATMe. It is a low number as the vast majority of seats are reserved for in-state. And you are wrong-I wouldn't mind it if the law was 100% in state. There would be just as many Asians and Indians.

And by the way, both my daughters have their medical degrees from UT schools that they had no problem getting into. Their futures look pretty sweet. Because I taught them to work hard, study, and compete. You want it given to you.

You must have flunked economics. Bringing in productive people creates more opportunity; it doesn't displace anyone.

I don't want it given to me scum bag. I just don't want it taken from Texans. And fwiw, I wouldn't want my kids go to UT even if they had a free ride. Too many rapists and sexual predators at UT.

What is being "taken from you?" There is no birthright. Winners earn it every day.
