God forgive me if I’m wrong, but I’m not wrong - this is fake AF.

I agree with you, OP. Asians are the best treated non-whites there is and that’s why I’m puzzled when they try to compare whatever discrimination to our years of oppression and trauma.

likefunny

- Asians as a group benefit directly from civil rights advancements that black folks fought for

- Asians as a group benefit from and actively promote a lot of anti-blackness

- Asians in America are highly privileged

BUT

- Asians in America do experience acts of discrimination and that has included many recent recorded acts of violence. There was a survey in April that supposedly gathered that 1 out of 4 Americans would try and avoid Asians in public if they could and that more than 30 percent of Americans have witnessed somebody in public blame an Asian individual for the pandemic.

- Experiencing discrimination as an individual is hurtful regardless how good or bad your group has it relative to another group.

In summary, whether or not this post is fake, while Asians have by the numbers have been horrible allies, I’m not supportive of trying to erase their experiences, which has indeed recently included increased discrimination and acts of violence.

Out of NO WHERE, you just recently started getting physically assaulted? Multiple times?? Random strangers have just been coming up to you and spitting on you and beating your ass? When we’ve all been inside?!?? Girl, sit.

Trump is racist towards anyone who is not white. He has said many anti-black rhetoric many times, so that’s not a great widespread example.

Jussie...that you? Stop playing man.

There’s def a lot of this going on in this app. And scarily from those of Asian decent. See the last line, blew her cover right open

No opinion on whether or not this is real or not, but my Phillipino friend and her Chinese husband have experienced an increase in racists/discriminatory incidents since Covid hit. From white people of course

Agree BAH. The women’s bowl is mostly supportive. Anyone spouting nonsense usually gets stomped out the post.

Maybe it’s fake, maybe it’s not — but there have definitely been instances in Chicago. It’s hard without seeing the post, but I think we should more than anyone else be careful/empathetic about the impacts of silencing or being too callous about race-based violence.

“Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul said in a statement on Monday that Asian Americans in the Chicago area have reported experiencing instances of harassment in their neighborhoods, on public transportation and in airports. Raoul specifically mentioned an incident in Naperville last month in which a 60-year-old Chinese American man was attacked by two women who spit at him and told him to "go back to China."

Yeah slippery slope, I agree PM1. Pandemic def is increasing anti asian behavior. Let’s not be callous about this. Further, I think the author is foreign asian, “anyone have suggestion” you can tell the grammar is off (rest of the sentence is good so it’s not a bad typer), which is atypical for American borns. And foreigners esp. Asian tend to be a LOT more racist. I give her claps for holding back tbh. It’s time for things to change definitely. But we can’t fight every battle, and I think the poster is just frustrated, which we can all relate to...

I wouldn’t say it’s 100% fake. There have been a lot of incidents targeting Asians because of how Trump has been reporting on the Rona. But not sure if any of that happening recently.

D1 the question was are you okay with it. Because it isn't something that I like or approve of and if something could be done, I wouldn't want them in this bowl, just as I wouldn't want men in a bowl intended to be a safe place from men. It is just a very odd, toxic dynamic to me that ppl feel the need to access places where they do not belong for very specific reasons...

I don't think it's fake. They going hard on Asians now.
