Bigotry does not need to be applied in a uniform manner, that'd make it too obvious. They learned lessons, and the information age means changing strategy.

A lot of this shit is structural, it's not all deliberate. There's a close relationship between real estate developers and police departments in a lot of cities because there's money to be made.
I just don’t understand why that structure would exist. Read “Streets of Gold.” An underrated reason for immigrant success is they only let us go to places like east Texas or LA (growing economies). If we had national service mandated and people had to move around, I bet a lot of people would get out of West Virginia and Detroit and find less “structural” obstacles

They seriously put us in nacogdoches, tx with one other Iranian family. I wondered why, but it’s because Texas was already starting its meteoric rise

The dude literally said that skill sets are why Vietnamese own nail salons.

I get why this guy thinks everyone is a white supremist, he's one.
Yeah it's a real scorcher of a hot take. Skills acquired can make you money.

Like that South Park episode where Cartman claims every black person knows how to play the Bass guitar, so Token calls bullshit and picks up a Bass guitar and starts playing perfectly lol

Your stereotype that Indians own little hotels and Vietnamese own nail salons is pure racist garbage not a hot take.
