Wmaf?!?!
White male Asian female
Wmaf?!?!
Look at this cac.
You clearly never talked with an african person before. Majority of them live in poverty and struggle like anybody else.
I got a quick story to tell. When I was in undergrad, had a Chinese American (I only put Chinese American because alot of them are sensitive about place of origin vs birthplace. I guess being perceived as the the perpetual foreigner wears on them but anyway...) boy that I was cool with. He stayed on the 3rd floor of my building and we were always hanginh out. Mind you, this guy has a sister and a brother in law at Goldman Sachs, and a bunch of family eating well elsewhere. One day, he posts about some Asian dude who had been bullied to death by his Army unit in Afghanistan and the gist of his post was where was Obama to speak on this, since the Skip Gates thing had already happened and the infamous "Beer Summit " just took place. How black leaders only cared about black causes. I read his message and off bat, I felt mad af and was gonna unload the flamethrower when I had an epiphany. Alot of these cats; whether in their own or through their parents example, surrendered their ethnic identities to better assimilate to whiteness, only to be bitterly surprised that you as a non white will always be the other. And that while Asian girls can come get fukked by white dudes, Asian male features are not desirable. Plus, if you even think about the fukked up dynamics of Asian female White male pairings, it'd make you bitter as fukk too. I explained to him that Asian American people have to be stronger advocates for themselves and make that noise. They see AA advocacy groups and understand the effectiveness (sometimes) but don't understand that this came to be because if we didn't ride for ourselves, nobody would. I think this also stems partly from subconscious guilt for being used as the so called Model Minority, to differentiate themselves from and shame black people. Lots of assimilating minority groups have played up beubf hostile to Black people as a demonstration of racial loyalty to white people. Turns out the price for being in Masters house was invisibility, this is why Asians and other groups were so mad about Oscar So White. Even if black people don't have shyt, we will at least always tell you how we feel. These people have wealth, education and are basically ghosts over here.
I live in Seattle bruh you have no idea how wrong you are.
Just because their problems are not IDENTICAL to Black struggles doesnt mean they dont deal with oppression and disadvantage. Once again its to nobodys benefit to turn oppression into a pissing contest.
First problem is painting Asians with a broad brush. Japs, Koreans, and Chinese do decently well for themselves but its a numbers game. In cities like Seattle, SF, NYC, you see a lot of successful Chinese and Japs because they flock in large numbers so of course you see the success more. Realize that Chinatown/Japantown IS the hood for Chinese and Japanese people.
However Cambodians, Vietnamese, Thais, Samoans, and Filipinos are considered bottom tier Asians and are really the "street" people of Asia. They deal with crime, poverty, and a lack of resources almost just as much as Blacks do. Forreal, go to a Samoan or Cambodian hood with your chest out and see how hard they bang.
Off top a huge problem ALL ethnicities of Asia face is lack of westernization. Believe it or not, a shytton of Asians here in Seattle cannot speak English (or read it) to save their lives and are at an extreme disadvantage due to that.
They have their share of problems bruh. And I havent even brought up Natives yet.....or how Asians congregate in areas that already have high rates of income disparity (making six figures in Seattle for example isnt much....)
It's simple and it is very simple.
We are an underclass.
Asians are not.
Non-Black Latinos are not.
We are.
Asian and Whites and Non-Black Latinos cannot relate to us.
It's that damn simple.
Because they see nikkas like Lebron, Jay Z, Beyonce and Oprah...and now Obama...they think we have some sort of power.
Western Asians have no real fukking problems besides media and political representation...
Ima be real...THEY HAVE NO PROBLEMS.
Racism has a material manifestation. Where is it for Asian people...
Show me an Asian ghetto...show me some Asian HIV/AIDS epidemic...show me some Asians locked up in prison at alarming rates...show me an Asian health epidemic...show me an epidemic of Asian homelessness...
You fukking can't...Asians get made fun of and nobody thinks Asian men are masculine and Asian women are the White man's fukk toy and that's it...
nikkas need to stop trying to have some sort of ally and friendship with motherfukkers they have nothing in common with...
I don't even think native born African Americans (meaning nikkas from the Americas) should try to ally with Africans because we are different.
We are distinct group with a distinct issue with a distinct legacy that nobody else in the world has.
We got no damn allies besides us.
Don't you think people have tried to find common ground? If you see people ain't trying to help then you gotta stand up and do it for yourself. And what is 'backwards c00ning'? You're just making up stuffThread proves what the guy is saying.
Y'all would rather side with hate jealousy and ignorance than you would to put differences aside to find common ground.
Y'all act just like the white folks you claim to hate. A lot of y'all are backwards c00ning and don't even know it
Anytime there's been an effort by minority groups to fight for change in America progress has been made.Don't you think people have tried to find common ground? If you see people ain't trying to help then you gotta stand up and do it for yourself. And what is 'backwards c00ning'? You're just making up stuff
100 years ago, we had the Chinese Exclusion act, Japanese interment camps, Filipinos that were hanged for dating white women and banned from many occupations, Asians banned from owning business, Chinese opium dens, and Coolie-slave labor.
China was being pillaged by the the western powers, and so was the majority of East Asia. Obviously not Japan.
We were an underclass and now we are not... even Filipinos are largely upper middle class.
However, Hmongs and Cambodians are actually worse off that Latinos and Blacks, what about them?
Statistically Black on Asian Violence does exist and it is a measured figure that is discussed and quoted online as talking points amongst Asians, and now White people are starting to quote numbers as well.Black on Asian violence.

This some really interesting stuff, definitely out some things into perspective
A couple quotes from the thread...
You can read the rest here
I don't care if Asian men get emasculated,
I don't care if Hispanics are scared of getting deported,
I don't care if Native Americans are drinking themselves to death,
I don't care if Jews are getting Holocaust flashbacks,
And I really don't care if whites are having a heroin overdose
Hold. Your. Own. Nuts.
