You assign "homework" now? I must say I enjoy the irony.
It is little surprise that you still fail to understand what assigning homework means. It means that you cannot demand that I do work to support or understand your position. Asking you to 'do the work' to show that you support your positions isn't assigning homework -- it's the expectation that you can actually articulate your position and do the necessary work to get from point A to B. You haven't done that, you've just stated your position and declared it unassailable.
Privilege as already been established. That you deny it doesn't mean it wasn't done.
No, it hasn't been established, it's been claimed. The work that needs doing is showing that it is, indeed, a privilege to not be a victim.
Could be. Underrepresentation can be a sign of discrimination. If only there was an article with more examples showing Asians are underrepresented at the top.
And still you waffle. This is indicative of your entire discussion form -- you refuse to actually stake a position yourself, because that would mean that you could actually be engaged and possibly shown wrong.
Again, if you want there to be more Asian partners, which other group do you suggest should have fewer partners? It's a simple question, yet I predict that you'll either pretend it does not exist or refuse to answer it.
I must say, I find ridiculus how stubborn denial of privilege can get. And I'm impressed how much denial can veer a conversation away from the initial subject to focus on discrimination of a group in one profession. But I guess when a group is losing (illegitimate) power "death throes" are to be expected.
Huh. I'm not impressed by how much you resort to attacking your interlocutors when you find yourself on uncomfortably shifting ground, as you do with the Asian lawyers argument.
Tell you what, if you completely drop the argument that Asians are discriminated against in the law profession, I'll agree to stop pointing out how badly wrong you are on that point. I'm a magnanimous guy like that.
Why? It seems you do not respect your own (sudden) standard of establishing things. Again, the irony is enjoyed.
Instead of engaging the argument that your statement makes a false equivalence the the supposed existence of a glass ceiling must mean that a bamboo ceiling also exists you choose to pivot and make a personal attack on me -- not any of my points, but me. Classy.
In case you failed to follow, the argument that one thing existing must mean that a similar thing exists is not a good argument. For instance, horses and unicorns are extremely similar. They are identical in form except that a unicorn has a horn. The noted existence of horses says absolutely nothing about the existence of unicorns. It would be wrong to say 'if you believe that horses exist, why would you not also believe in unicorns.' That's the level of argument you made, that's the level of argument I called out, and you respond with a 'you do it, too' argument, when I've clearly never made such an argument here (I've made that argument before, but I was young and foolish).
