Being racist to asians Options

[dani41790]

omfg thats so wrong. that happend to me before. i was in a school where practically every1 was white because it was on an airforce base and they would be all racist and stereotypical to me and my best friend. but yea i didnt tolerate it back then so i kicked a bunch of peoples ass thank god my new school isnt racist. 95% asians there. but yea even though most of my school is asian, we arent mean to other races.

ima chink, chink pryde....ppl r stupid...racism will prolly be round fo a long time, as long as there are stupid ppl there will be racism

[whomps]

ima chink, chink pryde....ppl r stupid...racism will prolly be round fo a long time, as long as there are stupid ppl there will be racism

Oh please, don't say that. You just degraded yourself.

[azn_r4pf4n]

yehhh, racism is pathetic.. im lucky we get along wit eachother bak here in cali, but its much different. its like the opposite bak here. asians hating on other races, well sort-of... =\ the point is, racism is a bad thing. yehhh, i heard of the asian stuff like "asian pride" or "fat asian kid" or "curse of the asian man", all around CB. the point is = racism is unstoppable. just gotta get used to life. if u rlly wanna get away from it, avoid places where racism happens.

[melface]

Ok, these "preps" including caring about their appearance, make fun of others and cheerlead. And wear expensive clothing and talk about their clothing. And guys.

Hahahahahahaha.... Now let me ask you something, little girl... Do you even know what the word stereotype means? How about hypocrite?

[sweetxsimplicity]

Interesting, though a lot of people here are asian, I personally think a lot of "traditional" asian parents are racist to like white kids, but I'm not trying to be racist, it just seems that way.

[x emo screamo x]

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?

this one girl I used to be friends with called one of my REALLY REALLY good friends a 'chink' this year Too bad I don't live near her anymore. She would've died. Haha.

I think racism is just plain wrong

At my school white people are basically one of the minorities.

There's alot of hispanics at my school.

Let me pick apart your topic for you, and point some nice little things out that you should be aware of before trying to rant about a sensitive subject like this.

So we moved to another town where probably 85% were asian. It was good

Hrrm, looks like you only seem to favor a town of people who happen to be of similar cultural background. Don't like diversity? You don't think that in that town there was just the same level of racism? Or did you overlook it just because they were 'your people.'

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.

What's so cool about it? The many advantages of being bilingual or multilingual is the ability to broaden your limits of communication. Now, I think that's a prety damn handy skill.

(one of those people you would call popular and preppy and all they care about is there makeup, you know)

I'm not even going to go through too much on this one, since people have already pointed it out. BTW, would it even matter if they were a prep or not? The fact is they made a racist remark, right? Why did you feel the need to label her? Aren't you just stooping down to her level? Nice job of keeping that chain of ignorance going, sweetie.

that word is like saying "nigga". I mean, you can say the word to other people of your own race

Oh, just because you're of the same race, you suddenly have the right to use racial slurs? I think I would still find it offensive, regardless of what cultural background the person using it is from.

And second of all, it's more vietnamese people who own nail salons.

Thanks for feeding to the stereotype that you were complaining about.

Xanga is probably like 95% asian

I'm so glad that you've gone through every existing Xanga and conducuted a chart to prove this statement.

And that is stupid because first she's talking about chinks and then she joins something where the community is 95% asian.

I'm guessing since Xanga is a "95% asian" community, it wouldn't be right for someone of another race to join, eh?

I mean, you might think racism has stopped, but it seriously is going on everywhere.

You're right, stereotyping, labeling and racism is going on everywhere. And guess what? It's going on in that post of yours.

Now, I'm not going to on about how racism is one of the worst things in the world, blah blah blah - I'm just going to point out that before you harshly judge the ones around you, take a good look at yourself and ask yourself whether or not you've done or said the same things.

Joe has a VERY good and well thought out point ya know..

[WhiteLotus*]

the population here is 90% asians.

I'm Caucasian.

I love Asians. Asians are the best people in the world.

[waccoon]

ima chink, chink pryde....ppl r stupid...racism will prolly be round fo a long time, as long as there are stupid ppl there will be racism

As long as there are stupid people, you say?

[*[2]Nekked*]

i think she meant that the majority of xanga is asian, and she just threw out a random percentage. and she didnt say if you werent asian, it wouldnt be right for you to join xanga. what she meant was that girl obviously has problems with asian people - and it seems peculiar that she joins a community that consists of a lot of asian people.

and i dont think she said she was only comfortable with people of her own ethnicity. but that town was probably the only school she went to that the majority of the student body wasnt caucasion. i used to goto the highschool in the current town she lives in, and the actual percentage of caucasion students is 72%. there are some african american people (But theyre go there on scholarship. they all actually live in the city) There's probably like... 15 asian kids in the entire student body. and so what if shes more comfortable with people of her own culture? i am too. i think you're all reading into this too deeply.

[dreamerOi]

well im going to move to a town with about that amount of whites too. but i heard theyrs no sort of racism theyr but racism is one thing that will never stpo. and yea thats a fact. people are humans with emotions and reactions. and thats why itll never stop.

Yeah, I know that she was trying to point out that Xanga is a largely asian-based community. But why even bring that up? I don't think that it's necessary to use that loosely based statistic to strengthen her argument.
You can't attack that girl based on the fact that she joined a 'large asian community' while being racist to them.
"Haha, omigod, what an idiot, this dumb bitch hates chinks, but she has a Xanga."
Really, I think that's a weak argument.

So this girl, she goes and gets xanga. Xanga is probably like 95% asian. And that is stupid

Tell me that there isn't a hint of closed-mindedness in that statement. Tell me how strong and credible that argument is, while standing the ground of trying to promote open-mindedness, racial equality and the elimination of ignorance through racism.

so what if it was a weak statement? does it matter? you get her point. i dont understand why people are so quick to "pwn" the noobs. lay off man, shes like.. what.. 13?

edit:// if i was in her position (which i was for three years) i would be pretty pissed off (which.. again, i was for three years.) i dont think theres even a hint of racial inequality in her post. shes just saying how she feels. the people there are incredibly close minded. (ten times more close minded then you think her post seems).

and even if that part of the argument was unecessary.. SO WHAT? she used it anyways. what are you going to do about it? just leave her alone. all shes saying is that there seems to be a lot of racism going around in her area. nothing more. nothing less. so stop picking her post piece by piece and overevaluating them. shes not MAKING an argument. shes making an observation.

Lay off?
I wasn't trying to disqualify the message of racism or anything of that caliber, I was only trying to point out that there was a lot of what she was attacking in her argument.
I wasn't 'attacking the noob'...Her post just seemed to have too many statements that conflicted with her message.

Okay, no more of this. [EDIT] No need for any more justification. I admit, I was a little out of place to 'overevaluate' her post. And by no means am I against the message she's trying to get through. Racism blows, nuff said.

Okay, no more of this.

but do you HAVE to point it out? you cant just take her message for what it is? its just an observation. you can either agree or disagree. theres no need to humiliate her.

edit:// and yknow.. when you're around people like that 24/7.. people who are ignorant and make fun of people of your own culture, just for kicks... well.. your opinion of everyone else can get a little skewed, if you know what i mean. you cant blame her if she feels more comfortable around people that have more in common with her. you cant blame her if she resents the "preps" that have annoyed her so much.

Trish, I think this is enough, there's no need to make this any bigger than it should be.

Yeah, sometmes I feel that you should have the right to start retaliating in the same fashion...but then again, I realize you're just stooping to their level.
It's a shame if your views are warped because of outside ignorance, and that's another issue about the whole thing...Racism tends to spawn more racism.

[Edele]

All I say is stereotypes and prejudices of any kind are not cool and really not fun. Especially for a person on the receieving side of a sterotype or prejudice. In which, I think almost everyone has been on the receieving end. Also, almost everyone has been stereotypical or prejudice. It is a fact of life. And it's an annoying and cruel one. Just try not to bring forth stereotypes or prejudices of your own. Or keep it to yourself.

That is all.

[*kryogenix*]

HAHAHA. Chinese people. With their KUNG FU. And CHING CHANG CHONG. I don't understand you, go back to your country, white power!

But seriously, I hate racism. When I was little people would always think I was Chinese and do the whole ching chang chong dealie.

He was just trying to be funny... I mean being korean + pigtails= a handjob and a blowjob? umm No, I think it's any girl + pigtails= blowjob with handlebars... He said the joke wrong...



Okay... I'm tired of you people complaining, though... You think YOUR race is the only one that is stereotyped and discriminated against? People ask me if I'm from Mexico all the time... Or if I speak "Mexican"... I just simply tell them No and that the language that is spoken is called Spanish... I tell them I'm from Panama... and I'm not bothered by them asking me. Why? Because it SHOULDN'T ... some of you really need to learn how to deal with people and society... You really need to get it through your head that that is just how people are going to be and quit your bitching about it. And if is bothering you THAT damn much... Then move back to your own country.

who said that asians were the only ones that have to deal with racism and stereotypes? i dont remember anyone saying that...at all.. just cuz there's a lot of asian people complaining about it doesnt mean that we think we're the only ones.

why are you overreacting?

and i dont see how thats funny. he directed it towards a single ethnicity. i'd call that racism if anything. he was trying to be "funny" by being racist. maybe the joke is "any girl with pigtails" but he didnt SAY any girl did he? he said koreans girls. maybe its a different joke. maybe you're trying too hard to turn this into nothing.

Just because racism will always be around, doesnt mean we cant complain about it. Maybe instead of us "quitting our bitching about it," they should quit being so ignorant and racist. and maybe you should quit your bitching about people who have problems with racism. let them bitch if they want. some people grew up in this world being raised to speak up about these issues. just cuz it happens every day doesnt mean we should all be silent.

And if is bothering you THAT damn much... Then move back to your own country.

that seems a little immature, dont you think? if us complaining about it bothers you so much, maybe you should just stop listening, and get off our backs
