The Chinese know our leaders well. In fact, they have a name for our self-hating professional class.
They call them "baizuo." The rough translation from Mandarin is "White liberal," and it is definitely not a compliment. Chinese state media describes baizou as people who, "only care about topics such as immigration, minorities, LGBT and the environment, who have no sense of real problems in the real world, who only advocate for peace and equality to satisfy their own feelings of moral superiority, and who are so obsessed with political correctness that they tolerate backward Islamic values for the sake of multiculturalism."
As Chinese state media notes, "former US [sic] President Obama was considered an advocate of baizuo ideolog So is "German Chancellor Angela Merkel and her decision to welcome more than one million third-world [sic] immigrants to Europe."
Other observations about baizuo, as reported by Chinese state media, include the fact that they "advocate inclusiveness and anti-discrimination but cannot tolerate different opinions." Baizuo's political opinions are "so shallow that they tend to maintain social equality by embracing ideologies that run against the basic concept of equality."
According to one scholar from Peking University, "baizuo are phony and hypocritical and will make the situation in the West go from bad to worse." And so on.
Talk about insight, they know our leaders well. According to Wikipedia, many Chinese internet users use the term "baizuo" to "criticize the Democratic Party's emphasis on affirmative action policies [which are] perceived as discriminating against Asians.
Whatever you think of the Chinese, they’re definitely not stupid, and they’re on to something there. Affirmative action hurts Asians. That’s true and everyone knows it.
A study of Harvard’s admissions policy, for example, found that if the school admitted students solely on merit, as we thought they did, the percentage of Asian students in a given class would double to 43%.
Harvard doesn’t want that many Asians, so it denies admissions to Asians because they’re Asian. That’s the definition of discrimination. That’s what racism is. But it’s everywhere. It’s going on in all elite schools right now, as well as in almost every major corporation. The current administration wholeheartedly supports it.
The Biden Department of Justice dropped a lawsuit against Yale for racist anti-Asian admissions practices, which were proved. They got hold of Yale’s admissions standards, which showed unequivocally that Asians were denied entry because they were Asian. But the Biden DOJ didn’t want to pursue it because they support it.
The attacks on standardized testing have the same effect. We have standardized tests for a reason. They’re created so that people who have no social connections – ambitious and talented
Immigrants, for example – could succeed in this country too. People like that have no one to write recommendation letters for them — no rich uncles who sit on the board of this or that school — but they’re smart and they work hard and we wanted a place for them in our hierarchy. (This is the land of opportunity, remember?) So we created standardized tests so they could make it too. People from nowhere could succeed on their own talents. That was the idea.
But, not anymore. Standardized tests are disappearing, thanks to lobbying by baizou - from woke Democrats. The meritocracy is racist, they claim. So is succeeding through hard work.
Who does this poisonous ideas hurt most? In Boston, as in so many places around the country, public schools have suspended an "advanced work" program due to quote "concerns about equity." The real concern is the skin color of the students in the program. Liberals were mad that the classes were too Asian. You’re seeing this everywhere. Many elite high schools are changing admissions because there are too many Asians in the classes.
We all see this happening. No one in this country mentions it. You know who else notices it? The Chinese. Why wouldn’t they? On one hand, they’re offended, because the baizuo’s so-called "equity programs" always wind up hurting people who look like them. On the other hand, the Chinese government is pleased as they watch this. Because no country that penalizes people for intelligence and hard work can last very long. The Chinese have been around long enough to know that’s true.
