this is probably pretty fucked up and resentment-fueled on my part, but these quotes fill me with glee tbh
I really enjoyed the idea of white parents being afraid that their kids are too dumb to hack it in 'Asian-dominated' high schools.

Using a black ilx0r, especially one who hasn't even posted on this thread, as an avatar for all PoC is pretty gross, Aimless.
in trying to recapture my thinking, I believe I was specifically using said ilxor as an avatar of a middle class PoC, in that said ilxor attended an ivy league school, sings opera, and most likely would be viewed by my white middle class neighbors as more like themselves than not. the importance of that fact in my mind was that it would eliminate class-based considerations from how well or ill he might be welcomed. but, your perspective on grossness noted.

xxp - why don't they just send their kids to private school, since they're obviously affluent enough to afford to buy homes in Manhattan?

think private schools in MHT are pretty hard to get into?
