I didn't say "Japanese citizens", I said "Yamato Japanese", the ethnic group.

Japan is also one of the least diverse developed countries with well over 90% of inhabitants being Yamato Japanese. It is unsurprising that it would be safe, clean, and functional.

> Students for Fair Admissions, accuse Harvard of discriminating against Asian American applicants in order to boost representation from other groups.

Why does this argument need to be framed entirely as discrimination against Asian Americans? Affirmative action clearly harms White people too. Are White people so incapable of advocating for themselves that they can only point out a policy is bad when it harms another minority group?

Even if SCOTUS does end affirmative action with this case, how are we going to undo the decades of damage that this policy has caused?
