Being racist to asians Options

[jennyjenny]

Alright, I seriously need to say something about this racism in my town. Tell me what you think:

Ok, my town is like, 90% white people. The town I used to live in like, 7 years ago was more white. It was more like 99.9% of whites. And they would always be like "ching chong chang" and me and my brother didn't exactly "fit in" cause we were chinese. So we moved to another town where probably 85% were asian. It was good but then we moved to this shit town. Ok, I hate the fact that they always ask me "can u speak chinese?". I mean, that's like asking if you can speak another language, i don't see what's so cool about it. If u wanna know how to speak it, get off your lazy ass and learn.

In 7th grade, there was this one kid, Devin. And he would be all "asians drive bad" and " asians are short ". Stereotypical stuff. And all this other shit. So one day I go online and see this girl (one of those people you would call popular and preppy and all they care about is there makeup, you know) and her profile would be all " omg im scared to go to the nail salons again cause the stupid chinks would probably break my nail or something". Ok, first of all, chinks, that word is like saying "nigga". I mean, you can say the word to other people of your own race but if you say that and you're not that, don't say it, it's offending. And second of all, it's more vietnamese people who own nail salons. So this girl, she goes and gets xanga. Xanga is probably like 95% asian. And that is stupid because first she's talking about chinks and then she joins something where the community is 95% asian. Okay?

So, 8th grade, Devin has gotten over the whole asian thing (kinda) and I have to sit with 5 other people in spanish and they act racist EVERY DAY. Asking questions like "are u part of the asian invasion?" or "i should use these eyes, they look like chinese eyes" and then does that fag thing where you make it look like an effing alien. And all these other shit.

I mean, you might think racism has stopped, but it seriously is going on everywhere. What are your opinions?

Hahahahaha... Oh man...

Why not just f*cking accept it? You don't have control over any people... Racism is always going to exist... even if the government tried to do something about it.

It is a joke, by the way. He aimed it towards koreans because he was trying to be funny... I didn't f*cking say it WAS funny...


Are you people, honestly, that blind? I guess so.



Well, I assumed it because after three pages, no other race was mentioned.

I'm not.

I guess we'll never know WHY he said 'korean', huh? I never said the joke was funny.



Like I said before, we have NO control over these people... So, you're just wasting your time... Let's be a tad bit more realistic.

Sure, go ahead and speak up about it... but tell someone that can actually DO something...


... Maybe you guys should learn how to deal with society before crying over it... Sure, go ahead and let it out about how you feel about the subject... but I'm tired of all these people assuming things... thinking everything is 'racist' without putting any thought of understanding into it... Brush it off your shoulders, people... There's a slight chance that people will stop being 'ignorant and racist' in your favor... but that is going to take some time... probably a long time... So, stop complaining about it and deal with it now... It's going to be like this for a while.

edit// Aren't any of the other races that are not caucasian racist and ignorant, as well? Hmm... hypocrisy.

maybe after three pages of this, only asians were mentioned, because THE ONLY PEOPLE POSTING IN THIS TOPIC ARE ASIAN. they never SAID that other races werent discriminated against.. why? BECAUSE THEYRE ASIAN. NOT EVERY OTHER RACE. (discluding me)

Why not just f*cking accept it? You don't have control over any people... Racism is always going to exist... even if the government tried to do something about it.

right. and you dont have control over people who are naturally offended by racism and discrimination, right? it goes both ways. so maybe you should just practice what you preach and get over it.

It is a joke, by the way. He aimed it towards koreans because he was trying to be funny... I didn't f*cking say it WAS funny...

trying to be funny in a racist way? its a racist joke. get real.

Sure, go ahead and speak up about it... but tell someone that can actually DO something...

she was making an observation. she didnt say anyone had to do anything about it. and further more, if you dont like this topic and how people are bitching about it, then why even waste your time with it? stop reading it, maybe? obviously no ones going to stop bitching just cuz u said "stop bitching"

edit// Aren't any of the other races that are not caucasian racist and ignorant, as well? Hmm... hypocrisy.

um.. how is that hypocrisy? if caucasion people were the only people that have been racist to them in their lifetimes, i dont see how thats their fault.

me on the other hand.. i have black relatives who are racist towards me because im asian. and i have asian relatives who are racist to me because im black. i have french and russian relatives that are just racist all together. there. no hypocrisy there, right?

i think the only person really bitching about something that will never change is you. being hurt and offended by racism and discrimination is a natural reaction. you cant do anything about it. we have a right to be offended. but i dont see why you have to bitch at us about it.
