Why do Asians vote for Democrats?
I get why blacks and Latinos are so loyal to the Democratic Party. They need government benefits, affirmative action, and for the latter, amnesty for illegal aliens. But what do Asians get out of liberal policies? Also, it is worth noting that the liberal media glorifies blacks while emasculating and demonizing Asian men. Crimes by blacks against Asians have skyrocketed in major cities.
Maybe they got tired of hearing "go back where u came from" from the "conservatives"
Well, there’s more to Democrats than just affirmative action. There’s the thing where rich people pay taxes proportional to their income so social services can be financed. Something every Asian country does and thinks very reasonable. Probably because they remember what happened the last time the aristocracy ignored the common folk (they were all murdered violently).
Because they’re not stupid.
My dad worships Reagan.
You're Asian? What did he like about Reagan? Reagan, HW Bush and Dole, won the Asian vote.
Your dad had a lot of fun dumping debt on you and your generation.
Why would asians vote conservative? They get screwed either way. Blacks are even more detrimental but they're in fewer leadership positions so they don't seem as bad.
Immigration /Thread
Republicans used to be quite pro immigration. But Donald Trump is not George Bush and Ronald Reagan.
Because they need government benefits, affirmitive action and ammnesty for illegal aliens. Most government benefits go to yt people by the way.
Asians don't benefit from affirmative action. They're actually hurt by it. Close to 70% of illegal aliens are from Mexico and Latin America. Around 12% are from Asia.
Not sure if you're including Indians with Asians, but I'm still trying to figure out why Seattle has this weird group of psychotic Indian socialist feminazis who are heavily involved progressive politics. Seems like Indians would lean towards Republicans since they are culturally focused on hard work, strong families, and now a shift towards preferring skilled workers over illegals and visa lotteries
Might have to do with republicans moving away from strong families and more into pro rape group?
There are a lot of poor Asians who need the benefits and are marginalized worse than Blacks/Hispanics due to asian stereotypes. Being in tech, we don’t interact with them a lot.
We just feel excluded by the overly white GOP. There is really no other reason
So identity politics rather than actual policies. Gotcha.
I don't understand how it's identity politics. BadgeSanta didn't say that it's because he relates more to the Democratic party, simply that there is no representation of Asian cohorts or the demographic in the GOP. Democrats at least have some representation, albeit not by much.
