Yes or no.
Is BIPOC just a way to say POC while excluding Asians?
-
"People of Color" would already include Black and Indigenous people.
Adding B and I in front of POC indicates some sort of demotion of the other groups.
Notice how often Asians are described as "white-adjacent."
BIPOC as a conceptual category is just the black fist beating the Asian stranger's face into a pulp. -
no. Aren't Asians POC?
Yeah but their non-low iq frustrates the lib's and they don't want them in that category because it doesn't work with the messaging.This might be the single dum be st take in the thread, and that is saying a lot. First, why is "libs" possessive? Li b erals think Asi ans are POC. Lib erals like framing As ians as POC. Wo ke lib eral sociologists publishing in race journals and in the AsAm and r ace sections of ASA treat As ians as POC. Read a book (besides Dutton and M-u-r-r-a-y lol).

`Exactly. So why add BI, instead of sticking with POC? Because POC is someone other than them. Asians and people of Latin American heritage.

Eh, this occasionally happens at the popular level among Twitter SJWs, who are almost entirely insignificant. In the social sciences, there are two major theories arguing *some* Asians could be given such status in the future. In all of these cases, it dropped drastically in early 2020.

How do we tell which hispanics are of color and which are wht? Are we going by skin color or Spanishy surname or what?
What is wrong with you people? Where are you coming from? This is 101 in the literature and entry level SRE courses.
Self-ID and indigenous heritage.

It's Black, Indigenous, & People of Color
Aren't black and indigenous people already considered people of color, though?
So wouldn't that acronym, as you are describing it, be redundant?Do you think the acronym should be changed to BILAPOC or Black, Indigenous, Latino, Asian, and People of Color? Why are Asians being excluded from the acronym, and does this exclusion empower blacks who commit hate crimes against Asians? The corporate media has already stopped covering assaults against Asians because it didn't match the wokester nar/rative.

^ This makes no sense?
You are first agreeing that POC includes Black and Indigenous (saying "Exactly."), yet then you immediately say that POC is a group "other than" Black and Indigenous, namely Asians and Latinos?Also, are "white Hispanics" considered to be People of Color?
