The Oriental Diversicrat
According to blogger OneSTDV, Asians are the minority liberals don’t like. The thinking goes that the elites have a picture of America as a land where whites are advantaged and minorities are poor and crime prone because of it. A successful group of nonwhites is a living contradiction of their worldview. His evidence is a Princeton newspaper making fun of a Chinese girl that sued the school over their affirmative action policy.
I’ve seen this kind of talk amongst race realists before. Asians suffer from affirmative action and NAM [non-Asian minority -- Ed.] crime, do well in school, and as an economically successful group are losers under any economic redistributionist regime.
Unfortunately, besides the mentioned article there’s no indication that liberals dislike Asians or vice versa. The clearest way to see this is by looking at voting patterns. In both 2004 and 2008 the Democratic presidential candidate won the Asian vote by about two to one. In 1996 61% of California Asians voted against ending affirmative action.
How to explain this supposed paradox? Interestingly, Asians as a group supported George H. W. Bush and Bob Dole during their losing campaigns of 1992 and 1996 respectively. When you realize that voting is at least as much about making a statement as it is rational self interest these patterns make a lot more sense.
Before we can understand Asians, we have to take a look at American political culture in general and how it’s changed in just the last two decades. For a few generations now, the elites had certain ideas about the direction they wanted the country to go. The only problem was that the voters wouldn’t cooperate. They came to hate the masses more and more. But immigration continued, and without ever consciously planning it in recent years the liberals have found themselves as a group in permanent control no longer needing the consent of the majority they detest. This disgust that they’ve built up has been given free reign. We now have New York Times articles explicitly celebrating the death of White America. This would’ve been unthinkable in 1990.
I’ve seen the anti-white cultural trends in shows and comedians I grew up with. In the late 90s I enjoyed watching comedian Bill Maher on his TV show Politically Incorrect. He would describe himself as a libertarian and voted Dole in 1996. I don’t remember him talking much about race, but his views on sex were certainly un-PC. Today, he’s a standard liberal and foams at the mouth when talking about conservative whites. The Simpsons used to be a great show, with actual characters that you cared about. Today, Homer, Lisa, Mr. Burns, and the rest have morphed into political representations of what the writers like or dislike.
To be a Republican in 2008 doesn’t mean the same thing that it did in 1992. Back then, voting with the conservative party said something about your economic views. Today, it’s taking a cultural stand. The most prestigious institutions in society have heaped so much mockery and scorn on traditionalist whites that people of other races have gotten the hint. White America has fought for the freedom of Korea and Vietnam, to feed Somalians, bombed Serbia and Sudan, liberated Kuwait, helped bring down the Soviet Union, and tried to build democracy in Haiti, Afghanistan, and Iraq, but didn’t lift a finger to stop themselves from being on their way to becoming a hated minority in their own country. Who would want to be associated with these losers?
What’s true for the Asian masses holds especially true for the elites. Particularly disturbing is the invention of the term “People of Color” (we should know by now to be on the guard for any new terminology or victim groups liberals create. How long was it from the time “homophobia” came into the English language to when it became one of the ultimate sins?). It was bad enough when blacks organized as blacks, Hispanic as Hispanics, etc. without whites being allowed to do the same. Now, nonwhites aren’t just organizing based on what they are, but what they’re not (white). Pat Buchanan wrote about one such group before the 2008 election:
On Sunday, 6,800 folks showed in Chicago for the 2008 quadrennial convention of UNITY: Journalists of Color. McCain declined an invitation. Bush had been booed at UNITY 2004, while John Kerry got a standing ovation. Featured speaker: Barack. Major concern of the journalists running the show: that their colleagues would lift the roof off the McCormick Place convention center when Barack arrived.
Said Luis Villareal, a producer of NBC’s “Dateline,” “I don’t think it’s such a bad thing if for 15 minutes you take off your reporter hat and respond to (Obama) as a human being at an event where you’re surrounded by people of color and you’re here for a united cause.”
And exactly what “cause” might the 10,000 members of UNITY be united behind? The hiring and advancement of journalists of color in all major news organizations in America.
For, as its emblem depicts, UNITY comprises four alliances: the Asian American Journalists Association, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, the Native American Journalists Association and the National Association of Black Journalists.
“A New Journalism for a Changing World” is UNITY’s motto.
And the title of its July 22 press release reveals what the “new journalism” is all about. “Aim of New UNITY Initiative Is More Diversity in Top Media Management.”
“With more than 50 percent of the population projected to be people of color in less than a generation,” says UNITY President Karen Lincoln Michel, “the nation’s news organizations continue to generate dismal diversity numbers year after year. . . . ‘Ten by 2010′ is a significant step in the right direction.”
UNITY is demanding that 10 major U.S. news organizations, by mid-2010, elevate to a senior management position in the newsroom at least one journalist of color and provide “customized training to help prepare them.”
Notice how by 2004 being an educated PoC meant booing the Republican and cheering the Democrat. And if businesses are forced to hire more nonwhites, and any nonwhites will do, what group can expect to benefit the most if not the one with the highest IQ? Jared Taylor has written on Asians getting into the racial spoils system and calling for quotas in areas where they’re underrepresented. If they’re allowed to partake in identity politics, we can’t expect them to resist.
Having been to college, educated Asians don’t only vote for liberal ideas but believe in them. I used to be less afraid of bringing up HBD in front of Orientals than other minorities because the data flatters them. Most, however, have been more shocked than the typical white college graduate. (Interestingly Arabs have been the most accepting. I’ve never talked to an East Indian about these issues, but there seem to be a lot of them in the HBD blogosphere.) This itself if evidence of HBD. Asians are natural conformists. They internalize PC dogma better than anyone else. In their anti-whiteness they are more white than whites.
Asian American studies programs now exist at a handful of major universities and seek to institutionalize the cult of victimhood. The following is from the Wikipedia article entitled “Model Minority.”
While some Asian Americans hold pride in the model minority image, the consensus in academia and the field of Asian American studies is that the Model Minority Myth is detrimental to the Asian Pacific American (APA) community, used to justify the exclusion of needy APA communities in the distribution of assistance programs, public and private, and understate or slight the achievements of APA individuals. Communities that are especially affected are South East Asian communities, e.g. Cambodian-American, and the Pacific Islander community, e.g. persons with origins in Guam and Micronesia; these communities have much lower education rates and higher poverty rates. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino and Indian Americans are over twice as likely to graduate with a bachelor’s degree than most members of other Asian-American groups. The Model Minority myth relies on the aggregation of success indicators, hiding the plight of recent first-generation immigrants under the high success rate of more established Asian communities.
Big surprise there. An academic field of study that grew out of identity politics reaches politically correct consensuses. Wikipedia will also teach you that all those who have studied “white privilege” agree that it exists.
If Asians have been too successful to be victims, they’ll associate themselves with less intelligent races in order to play the game. In the backwards world of academia, failure brings prestige. I thought the concept of Asian/Pacific Islander only existed as a census option but apparently it’s now a “community.” Isn’t it strange how people who share nothing in common (genes, language, history, SES) are seeing themselves as a bloc (at least in academia) based on how some white government bureaucrats decided to divide up the races decades ago? The Carter administration (or whoever) probably just thought that API sounded better than “miscellaneous.” (The Census Bureau in recent years has split Asians and PIs up. The term still exists though, and there’s even a Pacific Asian Heritage Month.)
If the People of Color needs leadership, Asians are naturals to fill the role. Take a look at the blog Racialicious, a meeting ground for spouters of every PC cliché there is. The founder is half-white and half-Asian. She saw that there was a market for anti-white propaganda, that the competition for the top slots wasn’t all that impressive, and she was intelligent enough to take advantage. In the future, we can expect to see more members of the “model minority” doing the same.
From HBD Books, August 7, 2009
The Chinese are second only to the Jews in being committed to self-interest.
They are working quietly and secretly. Though there are some more public acting Asian organizations, that is not the norm. And with the Hollywood and the media anti-Chinese propaganda, they will have a difficult time being effective in the long term. Hollywood stereotypes of Chinese have been almost as successful at creating negative feelings towards Chinese as they have towards Arabs, White business men, and Islam. Notice who the greatest traitor and most wretched spy was in the new Battlestar Galactica. Or notice who got the pretty red head in the new GI Joe, as examples.
Chinese Asians will support the political party and candidate that makes it easier to bring more family from the Taiwan and Mainland China into the US. Currently it is easy to bring in extended family according to my Chinese sources in the food business.
The Chinese negotiate and wiggle their way into a culture and society.
Chinese are not interested in Western Moral Values or Culture, only what can be earned or used for their own gain. They have their own music, ancient culture, a non-western Christianity (those that are Christian), etc etc. With the one child policy a whole new generation of Chinese are growing up with a whole new level of Narcissistic tendencies.
The Chinese population is expanding outside of major cities in the US: notice that in every small town in NC as an example there are Chinese restaurants, owned by Chinese who speak Mandarin as main language and English as poor second. They are spread out over large areas, but not a part of the community, yet NOT isolated from their fellow Chinese.
The Chinese method of expansion is through quiet enterprise and then using legal means as last resort, BUT rarely. All around the world the people from the “Middle Kingdom” are quietly gaining incredible financial resources and wealth. Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Australia, they USA etc.. and they aren’t putting the majority of their money in Jewish-type financial gimmicks.
The Chinese have an axe to grind. They will dress like us, learn lots of English, but that does not make them Western by any means. They are all well instructed from childhood what the foreign devils have done to China over the last 200 years.
Many of the values the degenerate West hold so important such as mercy, compassion, and forgiveness they consider a sign of weakness and just plain stupidity. The snicker at our perceived weakness.
The vast majority of the Chinese view America as seen in TV shows like Friends, Sex in the City, and our movies. They are normally available in China before release in America and sold at nearly every street corner for less than a dollar.
The truth is that the Chinese have never been a match for the West in any measurable way, but that might be changing. But not because the Chinese are rising to the cause. Rather, “It is not that China is on the rise but that the West is in decline. ”
And that raises the question: Why is the West in decline? Because the White Ruling Elite have financed, promoted, and established every sort of disease and destruction that can infect and poison a culture; to restrict competition and create a compliant and easily controlled people.
The future generation of White Men are too weak and mentally unstable to compete with the new generation of Chinese who are very confident and eager to make a place in the world.

Wow, though I’ve liked Richard Hoste’s many columns on this site, I must say he missed the boat big time in today’s offering.
Somehow his arguments managed to hit two or three of my big pet peeves on how issues are handled (or not handled) in polite company.
For starters, I’m eternally irked by the common petulant attitude of Asians (mostly males) in America toward white males. (Maybe that’s why they so often wig out and kill us.) Plus, I’ve had enough college courses to know how this attitude combines with victim ideology to result in the snotty Asian/Asian American Studies courses and programs Hoste writes about.
But what really bugs me is the fact that Hoste can buy into the convention that people can be broken down into discrete groups such as those he writes about under the People of Color banner — blacks, Asians, Hispanics, etc — yet implicitly let them stand in contrast to a generic majority known as “whites.” What gives?
In the context of this article it is obvious that “whites” should be broken down just like People of Color are; i.e., into white gentiles and Jews.
This should be obvious for two reasons. First, Hoste takes to task nonwhite journalists for demanding more diversity. Well, maybe there is too little diversity in American media, but it is already evident to many people that this lack of diversity is a result of the incredibly high proportion of Jews in media ownership, writing, reporting and so on. Try a google search for something like “Jews media control” and I’ll bet you’ll get more than just a few hits.
Next, Hoste hits the IQ issue, a topic that should automatically link to Jews for every reader likely to find his way to the TOQ site. Yet Hoste worries that ASIANS are going to benefit from media jobs taken from “whites.” Get real. Whatever jobs are lost on account of demands for diversity will come at the expense of real whites—that it whites with roots in Europe. Not one Jew will ever lose a job for this reason, just like Jews are not excluded from elite universities like Harvard because of calls for diversity.(See my column on this here: http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/authors/Connelly-Harvard.html)
Richard, I love your writing, but this time it just doesn’t work. Your story should have been about how JEWS facilitate minority demands for further dispossession of whites (actually, this is mostly a dispossession of white MEN—see Buchanan’s column about this from yesterday), thus creating a situation spotted years ago by Kevin MacDonald: “The United States is well on the road to being dominated by an Asian technocratic elite and a Jewish business, professional, and media elite.”
Don’t be afraid to write about this; TOQ and its readers can take it. And it needs to be shouted from the rooftops because we whites are nearing the brink.
I look forward to your next column.
You make some great points Sherwood.
Nowadays very many moronic overbreeding 3rd worlders want to immigrate to White-Western nations for ‘better lives’ because they’ve overbred in their own countries and strained their resources, insanely polluted their local/national environment, etc. For instance, the Asiatic morons down in Central America have bred and bred and bred and have now overgrown the bounds of their small nations (water, food, sewage capacity, etc) and thus have been pouring in to ‘El Norte’ for years. Also, have you ever read about how disgustingly crowded small Asiatic nations such as Bangladesh are?
The other racial groups in the world are clearly less advanced than Whites in terms of future-time orientation – I even include East Asians in this even though they are said to have a nominally higher IQ. They have massively overpopulated their countries and massively strained their resources, and now many of them seek to immigrate to White-Western nations for the less crowded and cleaner conditions. This must be opposed AT ALL COSTS – we must NEVER allow the Americas to become an Asian ‘beachhead’! This is already happening on the West coasts of the USA and Canada, with Asiatic colonies all over the place there. Eventually many of them will have to be repatriated back to their Asian homelands – North America is White territory and must always remain that way: it is not a place for overbreeding and non-forward-thinking Asiatics to dump their surplus population.
The fact is that non-White nations are using our own White-Western invented technologies and medical advances against us in an attempt to outbreed us and then swamp our lands and steal our resources. Various Asian nations especially look greedily upon the vast territories of the Western USA and Canada as future sites of Asiatic population expansion as I said above.
Why are we financing our own eventual displacement? It’s because the WHITE SUICIDALISTS have ascended to power in the USA and other White nations – these people must be stopped. This includes many White hypercapitalists and globalists, along with the gaggle of parasitic Jews they are allied with.
It is my opinion that Northern Europeans/Nordics will likely never be able to adequately compete with Jews and various other Asiatics in densely populated urban areas because Jews/Asiatics/etc are used to those ‘gutter’ urban conditions (they having lived and thrived in them for much longer than Northern Euro Whites) and thus they have a much higher tolerance for that type of living. A major problem though is that Jews (who are of course big-city-dwelling “rootless cosmopolitans” par excellence) have been steadily amassing and concentrating their power (financial, social, political, etc) in various overpopulated urban areas for many decades now and thus shutting out Northern Europeans/Nordics who often cannot tolerate living in those rat-like big-city conditions.
