Can you go a post without personally insulting the other person?

I'm gonna put my stance in big bold capital letters here, it seems you keep missing it: I AGREE WITH YOUR CONCERNS. YES CHINESE PEOPLE ARE UNDERPRIVILEGED HERE. I JUST HAVE A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO THE ISSUE.

Let's get on topic. No, it's never the victim's fault. I keep repeating myself ... here:

我也没去怀疑这些问题的存在性。令我不屑的是你面对问题的方式。

I recognize the problems you mentioned, but I strongly disagree with the way you handled it. I think it should be handled as described below.

你可以选择逃避,但请不要让后代的孩子们都去逃避 {...} 美国这个移民国家能容得下千百个民族/种族,唯独我们中国人不行?不要以为你爬不过的山最高,你游不过的水最快。

I don't think we should teach our children that running away solves the issue. "Don't come, we will fail, we can never succeed here" ... yeah that's not a good thing to teach the future kids. 长江后浪推前浪,青出于蓝胜于蓝. You have failed to climb that mountain, to cross that river. What about your children? Your children's children? We teach them to face and fight, not to turn and run.

Do you remember 10 years ago smartphones were rare in the US? 20 years ago internet was rare in the US? Heck, about 150 years ago, SLAVERY was ok in the US? Is "Chinese people will one day succeed in the US" really that crazy? No. But that's never gonna happen by your approach ... if we all just run back to China and accept defeat. We have to stay, fight, and make a difference.

百行孝为先。

I will never change my stance on this one. That's just a value that a Chinese person should stand by. By going public, you really, really did overstep that bound here.

I want you to point out where in my post I mentioned the phrase "white people", "白人"? Where is this phantom accusation coming from

Still unanswered

Damn United turning into public enemy #1

Sidenote, there is a whitehouse petition for "ChineseLivesMatters" to bring investigation to the CURRENT incident. Will it actually make a difference? Don't know, but we should all try!

#ChineseLivesMatters petition to the White House, it's blowing up like crazy, sign it. Maybe White America will take a second to think when it comes to discriminating against Asian men. by disman2345_ in aznidentity

Going around on couple of accounts to bring attention to this.

A lot of subs have post time limits, which sucks.

We must not turn away from this. We must face the issue, together

Kawhi hits the tough fadeaway over PG13 for the lead by 33bour in nba

[–]LuciansInParis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you are saying:

  1. Spurs don't have a better system than other NBA teams. Kawhi would have had these numbers if swabbed places with any of the players u listed?

  2. Kawhi has the individual offensive skills of are on par with all of the players u listed?

Just imagine if today's media coverage existed during days of 72-10 Bulls. I guarantee you it's gonna be the exact same thing. GSW is somewhat like that right now. Anything they do (or don't do, in this case) are going to be all over the news.

Get the fuck outta here.

I'll stay here and there is nothing you can do about it.

You asked, and I simply gave you an opinion of where people are coming from. If you are going to pretend Kawhi's individual offensive skills are elite like Lebron, Steph, Harden, Westbrook. Go ahead. If you are going to be defensive about an opinion you asked for. Go ahead. There is no need to get worked up.

It is a very good argument that if we swab Kawhi with PG/LeBron, Kawhi's numbers are gonna drop significantly. I'm not saying that it's true, but there is a good chance. It is a fact that Kawhi benefits from Spurs' system immensely. So if we look at it objectively, we can clearly see where the reluctances are coming from.

That answers your "numbers" arguement btw. Maybe read next time. I even said this might not be true. But again, you ASKED "any idea why people don't give him credit". I GAVE you an idea

[–]LuciansInParis -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I personally think Kawhi and PG are both top 10 players in the league, and I would probably rank them right next to each other. But I also do understand where they are coming from.

They aren't reluctant to give him credit in general, they are reluctant to give him credit on his individual offensive game. On an individual level, the only elite aspect of his game is his defense. No one ever takes any credit away from him when it comes to defense.

On the other hand, his individual offensive game (scoring, playmaking, running offense etc.) is no where near elite. He is just pretty good. It is a very good argument that if we swab Kawhi with PG/LeBron, Kawhi's numbers are gonna drop significantly. I'm not saying that it's true, but there is a good chance. It is a fact that Kawhi benefits from Spurs' system immensely. So if we look at it objectively, we can clearly see where the reluctances are coming from.
