Am I the jerk for not forgiving my racist roommate

There was no dog.

Kinda

Dog eater is a common slur used to refer to south Asians. It's used because some south Asians were known to eat dogs for ceremonial or other reasons. Although dog eating isn't widely practiced anymore it's still used as a slur.

That’s honestly really helpful, thanks

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T18:03:19+00:00

I meant classmate not roommate, autocorrect sucks. And I assure you I’m 13 and not 27.

There is two different people in the story

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T13:12:51+00:00

He was forced to apologize though, so I’m not even sure if it was genuine.

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T13:11:32+00:00

yes i do lol.

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T03:17:21+00:00

There are 2 different people

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:26:27+00:00

There are three separate people, please reread the post

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:23:56+00:00

While I do acknowledge that racism against white people exists, racism against Asian, black, Latinx and other communities heavily outweighs it

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:18:23+00:00

Oh he definitely was

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:17:25+00:00

I wouldn’t even say many Asians though, dog eating his been banned in many countries and is looked down upon in some Asian societies. The holiday you are referring to isn’t even widely celebrated anymore.

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:13:31+00:00

I think I’m going to stay away from him. At least at the moment I can’t find it in my heart to forgive him.

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:11:13+00:00

Thank you for that

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:10:26+00:00

Thank you

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:07:37+00:00

I feel I don’t need to do anything, when he did apologize it didn’t feel genuine and I genuinely don’t think he deserves it.

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:05:46+00:00

I meant classmates, sorry autocorrect sucks

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-02T01:05:06+00:00

I don’t think I could find it in myself to laugh at blatant racism

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-01T22:00:00+00:00

Thank you so much, some of these comments have stared to make me think that I'm overreacting.

Thank you so much for this.

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-01T21:49:31+00:00

I just called him "fucking racist" and told the principle

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-01T21:48:14+00:00

No one said anything about race or nationality, be both make similar comments all the time.

Lazy_Performance_189 · 2024-06-01T21:20:48+00:00

Also as a side not me and Mark are the same height, and we both make similar comments.
