As the title says.

Even though I live in an area with a lot of people, I still experience that small town culture/behavior because of how small my ethnic group is.

The gossiping and the way word spreads around so easily because everyone is in some way close to each other. There is this aspect of privacy that you lose because peoples mouths just like to run with or without having close relationships.

You add into the fact that you have an Asian parent who has no respect for you and it just becomes even worse.

It sucks.

I don’t need to know that about other people and even if something can be considered small and insignificant, I would rather just not have people talking about me or anyone else at all.

I go out on the streets and it's scary, the way people look at me, almost flying inside me, I'm half Filipino/Thai, and it's simply detestable to go out on the street, and people look at me like wild, I'm not respected by anyone, not by whites or blacks.

At school even if I tried to make friends no one ever wanted to be friends with me, I live in a neighborhood with few Asians, people literally hide from me, as if I were from another planet, a girl once asked me if I was really Asian, because I didn't look like Lisa from Blackpink.

I feel terrible living in the West, I'm not accepted by whites, I'm not accepted by blacks, there aren't many Asians in my neighborhood, I don't have the body which boys like, and I'm not a Kpop star, I feel like I am outside always.

Someone feel the same?

One of the biggest streamer in the world makes a 6-hour irl stream in China and the whole world can see that China has clean, modern cities and happy people of different cultures.

It's hilarious, because Anti-China Youtubers and Western media are now fuming.

(Btw, I don't think that iShowSpeed cares about Asians or Chinese people: he just makes vlog all around the world. And China happens to be his new destination.)

[ 2nd EDIT: Because of his past, I take everything with a grain of salt. But I see the overall result of his China streams as something very positive for the image of China.]

I was curious about whether this dynamic exists within Asian Americans and differing heritages back in Asia.

Latinos from Latin America generally all speak Spanish (not Brazil, and maybe some other countries). For those born in the U.S., there is usually an insult given to them: "pocho" or "no sabo" essentially making fun of the way they have an American accent with the former or a severe lack of proficiency with the latter with their heritage language. Some Latinos from Latin America engage in this rather than being encouraging or uplifting.

Does this same dynamic happen within Asian American communities? In any case, I experienced some of this myself as a Mexican that was born in Mexico and brought here, growing up with English as my dominant language. To make a point, I went on to later perfect my Spanish (got certified too), got fluent in Portuguese (certified as well), and now certified Intermediate Mid in Chinese Mandarin. I like to encourage heritage language learners and defend them; I offer solutions rather than needless criticism.

I came across this post at a passportbro subreddit and it definitely brought out the racists. A few people were saying Asian men aren’t good looking and the hot Asian girls had surgeries. Fortunately, there were other reasonable people who came to defend Asian men.

I really dislike how entitled passportbros are to think they deserve Asian women. I felt like I had to crush their dreams and bring them back to reality by telling them they will never, ever be with the top women. It seems like they don’t understand the negative stigma attached to passportbros and how women with high status will never degrade themselves by dating them.

Unfortunately I can’t cross post, so you might have to find the post somewhere in my recent comment history.

Anti-Indian sentiment in North America was in the election news cycle because it served a purpose. The state benefits from importing more labor and opening the can of worms "debating" that labor. Natives get a scapegoat, the 1% get another distraction from class warfare, and America gets to break-in another minority.

It's not about “too many H-1Bs” or culture. It’s about control. The government presented a contract for immigrant labor, and knew they could play the anti-immigration card when it was convenient to "alter the deal." The party that pulls the trigger doesn't matter, it's a good cop bad cop routine.

Assimilate harder. Admit there's some truth to the accusations. Distance yourself from "problematic" Indians. Be reactive and talk about racism. You are being socially engineered toward manageable behavior. Knock Indians down a peg, and you send a message to all Asians: don't get any funny ideas, stay fragmented, or we can make your life more difficult.

This is what forced assimilation looks like in liberal democracies. It’s not camps. It’s the politicians putting a minority in the crosshairs, and saying: "Discuss." It's the constant demand to prove loyalty to a country that shifts blame on you for moving the goalposts.

How many times have we seen this before? How many times are we going to let it play out the same way? The culture war is where they want the battles to take place. We need to come up with asymmetric strategies and new vocabulary to break out of this groundhog day, instead of leaving it to the history books.

Sounds familiar?

Stefan Moyneux is a Canadian Whyte nationalist (WN).  Moyneux gained notoriety during the rise of Donald Trump in his first campaign and eventual presidency.  Moyneux was, at the time, supposed to be part of a 'Dark Web Intellectuals' (List below). However, he was more akin to the new wave/class of WN, the gentlemanly and intellectual WN.  The new breed of WN mottos were avoid using taboo words, such as the N-word, using logic and reasoning to argue for Whyt nationalism, maintain a professional dressed code and, above all else, remain cool headed.  In other word, he was part of the new ‘logic don’t care for your feelings’ WN breed.  Well, something any astute observers of WN have known for decades is that WN aren’t the kind of people who have self-control.  They have never operated with methodical planning or with organic collectivist mentality, but instead, their collective behavior is one of mob mentality with chips on their shoulders the size of the moon, so of course, it didn’t take long after his mediocre rise on social media as part of the intellectual dark-web grifters (list below) did Stefan Moyneux took a nose dive into the White Nationalist deep-end when he released his Poland Documentary.   

Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Sam Harris, and Steven Pinker - all New Atheists. Commentators such as Douglas Murray), Maajid Nawaz, Joe Rogan, and Dave Rubin are also included Other notable IDW members according to Weiss include Bret and Eric Weinstein, Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, Heather Heying, and Christina Hoff Sommers.

Stefan Moyneux found his financial success grifting in the man-sphere (MGTOW social media space), which I won't go into. I might add off-topic subluminal materials in the comment section if I have the time. However, going forward, I am focusing on his claim in his Whyt Nationalism documentary on Poland, under the extremely modest and humble title: The 100 Year March: A Philosopher in Poland, particularly, I am going to debunked Moyneux's claim, in the documentary, that Poland modern economic miracle is a product of Whyt Polish self-determination and high IQ ingenuity. I highly recommend you guys give it a watch for the double speak in it and double meaning of the documentary.

• The process of Poland breaking away from the Soviet Union started in 1989 and fully gain self govern in 1991.
  • During this period, Poland faced several economic challenges, including a high unemployment rate, which was around 20% at the time of accession.
• Poland officially Joined NATO on March 12th, 1999.
• Poland officially joined The European Union on May 1st, 2004.
• Poland, along with other former Soviet Union countries that has since joined the E.U., they are meant as a buffer if not out right client states of the U.S. and the E.U. to contain Russia.
• Russia is an energy rich country, and NATO plans to eventually incorporate Russian into the NATO by breaking Russia up into many manageable mini-states.

As it turns out, The Polish people weren't so self-reliant after all. Poland have been getting loans from the EU of nearly 256 billion Euro and only paid back 83.8 billions. It's not even a pay back but an E.U. membership fee. Unlike E.U. loans to the global south where they charge high interests, loans to Poland is in a form of GRANT. Meaning, they do not have to pay it back nor pay any penalties of any kind for late or no payments. In another word, it's free money, a 21st century Marshall Plan for the former Soviet Union countries.

The following is a summary from many reputable sources, such as Boomberg, Fox Business, etc.

Poland's contributions to and receipts from the EU budget 2004-2023

Since 2004, Poland has received nearly 246 billion euros from the European Union budget. During this period, membership payments to the EU budget amounted to over 83.8 billion euros. The most significant net inflows were in 2020 and amounted to around 13.16 billion euros, including reimbursements to the EU budget of 958,300 thousand euros.

Composition of the budget of the European Union 

The EU budget is financed from various sources, including contributions based on the gross national income of individual EU member states, which are determined by their level of wealth. Additionally, customs duties on imports from non-EU countries contribute to the budget, as does a small portion of the value-added tax collected by member states. 

Poland compared to the rest of Europe 

In 2023, Germany stood out as the largest contributor to the EU budget by a significant margin. Overall, the spending of the larger Western European nations far exceeded that of smaller countries and those in Eastern Europe. Simultaneously, it became apparent that Poland received more support from EU funds than any other member state. Poland's contributions to and receipts from the EU budget 2004-2023

Therefore, Stefan Moleux's Whyt supremacy IQ claim is just another lie and FULL OF SH*T!!!!

is there a group for asians to meet in the Bay Area/

has anyone ever watched jiaoying summers? if so what do you guys think about her for asian representation. I personally find her to be really good and des a great job at making asian females look boss lady. she doesn't give a f about calling people out. I often find asians from mainland china to be SO much better at asian representation than asians in America. I feel like ABC's idk what they care about but it's not furthering the interests of asians or even themselves sometimes.

With Musk leading, DOGE's downsizing of the federal government has created much resentment. Coupled with the wider opposition to the Trump administration, many are boycotting Tesla. There have been incidents of physical violence, and a recent one against Tesla involves an Asian perpetrator. A few news articles linked below:

For example, Ubisoft just sold their IPs to Tencent, and the theory is that the CCP infected Ubisoft with wokeness to destroy them and buy them later: https://archive.is/Kly7b

It's funny because China is always accused of being the most racist/sexist. Yet whenever there's a strong black or female character in western media, apparently China is behind it. So China is simultaneously the most bigoted but also the main ones pushing social justice. Either way it's bad when China does it.

This theory is also easily proven false because the white savior complex has existed back when China was less powerful. Westoids have been going around the world lecturing everyone about being savages and not civilized enough.

When Japan lost WW2, it wasn't China who forced Japan to add more feminism into their constitution: https://www.timesofisrael.com/jewish-feminist-beate-sirota-gordon-changed-womens-rights-in-japan-forever/amp/

We have Larry Fink (CEO of investment firm BlackRock) literally admitting on camera he pushes feminism and BLM in the companies he invests in. Doesn't look Chinese to me: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KwwN5kwjAtQ

The west brags about being the savior of women and minorities until something like Assassin's Creed Shadows is a laughingstock, then it's China's fault. The west never takes responsibility for anything that fails.

Throughout my life I've been mistaken to look Hispanic (there's no certain look for Hispanics, that's like saying "you look like an English speaker"). I've also been asked if I was Asian, well just Asian in general not a specific ethnicity. I've been told me and this Korean girl look like siblings. I remember I had a Vietnamese friend, when I told her I was Asian she was surprised. When she visited my house, my grandpa was outside. After we hanged out together she texted me "If you're Asian, why is your Dad/Grandpa white..?" as if mixed people weren't a thing. I've also been uncomfortable to join those "Asian and Pacific Islander" clubs at school, I'm pretty sure I would feel more comfortable even joining the "Latino" club despite me not having Latino blood. I had my fair share of being in all Asian friend groups but I felt out of place. I remember having a Filipino friend liking East Asian media yet when I liked it, his other friend who's Hispanic told me "you aren't even Japanese it's cringe that you like this stuff." Well my Filipino friend isn't Japanese either, why would he call me out...

As Martell, I’ve spent five years in the AZN identity community as martellthacool until my account was banned. Being part of this great community has been an eye-opening experience, deepening my awareness of the struggles and resilience of Asians in America and worldwide. I’ve always approached these conversations with caution, aiming to learn without misunderstanding.

Recently, I’ve been on a weight loss journey for my health, inspired by the discipline I’ve observed in Asian lifestyles. Seeing Asians buy fresh fish and vegetables during my grocery runs made me reflect on healthier eating habits. Now, I’m on a doctor-ordered 1,800-calorie diet with no red meat. It’s been a few weeks, and I feel more motivated than ever.

Much respect to the AZN community for the knowledge, culture, and inspiration. Anyone else here find unexpected motivation from different cultures?

hi i am new! im a filipino woman. have had a pretty weird journey connecting with myself and falling in love with all the parts of my identity as an asian woman.

found a hardcore band some time ago called Speed, they are from australia and have loud and fast songs about anti asian hate. many of the members are asian men and that representation is so dope.

never seen anything like it, maybe some of yall could find joy in them like i have.

This trauma that I feel from all these hate crimes is starting to increase. What have you all been doing to deal with it! Other than telling others to leave that racist country. I feel like I want to do more to hold racist counties accountable. What do you do?

What do you guys think about Andrew Kim and is this going to affect how Asian men are seen in the dating market. This is definitely a bad look and that Andrew Kim has set us Asian men back. Everytime I think that we’re moving forward there’s always someone that breaks that all down. Is the backlash he’s facing also going to affect all Asian men?

for all the asian females dating white males. can I ask you what about them makes you want to date them? I used to also think white men were the shit and thought for some reason they were a class above and better looking than asian men(im an asian female btw). But after getting to know them, they aren't smart, manydon't shower, they are poor, they don't understand our culture, they are selfish and self centered. Why do you date them knowing fully well they fetishize you among other things and might even kill u cos most of them are psychopaths. Like I tried hard to like white men but my body literally doesn't let me get near them often times because I feel like they will kill me...

Why is this so?
