What did I lie about?  
You seem to be acknowledging that disagreeing with you is not lying.  
Is calling you a racist a lie?  
How would you know you are racist if you are blind to your own racism?  
Because your woke friends tell you you aren’t racist?

If you support a policy that would discrimimante against asians, you are racist. It doesn’t make you hitler and you can become a better person (we all can) but you are in fact being racist.

> No. I always thought you were weird, but does it turn out you’re a liar too? Or maybe you’re just too stupid to accurately characterize arguments, and you can only default to a handful of straw men about “woke hives” or whatever that have stuck within your little brain?

In response to a question about how you justify replacing asians with mostly white students, you reply:

“I justify this change because it provides a better distribution of kids in terms of opportunity. It still allows tons and tons of Asian kids, and it doesn’t discriminate in any way at all, except by GPA.”

You dismiss the fact that more accompoished asians are puished aside for less academically accomplished white kids by saying:

“That’s a side affect, not the goal. It’s still better than the status quo, though. With the status quo, black and Hispanic kids are underserved by this educational service. This lessens this, without underserving Asian kids. Asian kids still have plenty of access to this (and other) quality educational services in the area.”

This all seems like you are saying that asian casualties are an acceptable collateral damage of pursuing social justice. This is what makes you a racist. You are significantly worse than LHOD in this respect because his attitudes are not taken with such a blatantly cavalier attitude towards the effects of this "social justice’ on asian kids.

It still allows tons and tons of Asian kids, and it doesn’t discriminate in any way at all, except by GPA. Only more fair and equitable than the status quo. Still not a perfectly fair or equitable solution. Huh? Where have I said anything contrary? And this new policy doesn’t discriminate against Asians in any way. …
