>Anti-Asian discrimination is nothing new amongst the 1% - it's just another way to identify the non-chosen. FWIW, in the 1960s Clavell wrote of an Asian-American nuclear scientist wanting to buy a house commensurate with his station, but being refused by the seller on the grounds that it's a nice neighborhood and nobody wants the likes of him next door. The scientist "took a vacation" and reappeared in China leading one of their programs a few months later. Fictionalization of something that really happened. It's a hidden loss to society whenever self-appointed elites behave like a corporate to stifle others.

I don't see the point of the article. One old anti-asian barrier is replaced with another anti-asian barrier. What's the point of comparing two identical things? Just say nothing has changed.
