While we remain stagnant and complain about groups not being good allies, those groups keep running the resource race. And when the dust settles and this shit gets to where it's going...we're going to face permanent underclass status while Asians/Hispanics/etc say "I did this on my own, why can't you." They didn't do it on their own obviously, but that's what they will say. There will be no white guilt at play, either. Why would they feel guilty, after all - they aren't white, they aren't the ancestors of slave owners, etc. Point being none of these people are our ally and it's time to act accordingly.Don't sleep on the Indians
Hearing about how Indians come here and institute caste systems on tech teams is insane. Friend of mine had to damn near get a couple guys fired because they outright refused to speak to a woman on the team because of her caste. Mind blowing. Also note what happened in Seattle where they passed a low banned caste discrimination in the workplace last year. Large protests from Indian Americans, accusations of racism, etc. Again, all of these groups have specific policy interests and demands which may or may not line up with democrats (or republicans). Treating everyone like a singular, non-white Borg entity ain't cutting it.
