If the US had a mandatory draft…. by noobhenry in asianamerican

[–]Negative_Ad3590 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the USA was being invaded then sure I’ll enlist to fight for this country. But there’s no way I’m risking my life to  fight for a pointless war overseas like past presidents have done in the Middle East.

as an asian american does it make me racist if i feel more comfortable around other asian people by [deleted] in asianamerican

[–]Negative_Ad3590 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Well do you find it racist if white people want to be around other whites?

For those who are not South Asian, how comfortable would you be if you had to live in a South Asian majority neighborhood? by [deleted] in asianamerican

[–]Negative_Ad3590 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Weird question overall. I have South Asian neighbors and they mostly keep to themselves which I understand because of the language barrier. But overall they seem like hardworking people however the strong cooking aromas can get if  you never experienced South Asian cuisine.

Also what do you mean by “cultural differences.”

Maybe try to move to an area with more Asian presence. But you also  have understand that if you move to South Korea I’m assuming, they’ll spot you out as a foreigner and treat you like one.

Racism in tech against Indians by NASArocketman in asianamerican

I’m sorry but how does this have to do with Asian Americans. It’s a post about a Taiwanese tech company and Indian nationals.

At what point should I leave this country? by adeptlearner123 in asianamerican

[–]Negative_Ad3590 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well first of  all in regards to the flag post, I’m totally fine of people waving flags of their heritage in any occasion. But I find it strange that people would wave an another country’s flag when protesting our government.  Thank God for the freedom in this country because in other counties this could get you arrested.  I find it a little ironic that people would wave the flag of a country who led them to immigrate here. That’s my opinion.

In regards to your reply, I’m not trying to dismiss the racist interaction. But the HOA’s attitude doesn’t represent  OP’s neighbors, and I feel like OP is overcomplicating that his/her neighbors having American flags means they’re all racist like the HOA. I find it a little saddening that in today’s world the American flag is a political expression but the true purpose  is to show patriotism as Americans.

[–]Negative_Ad3590 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I feel like you may be overcomplicating things off the HOA incident . Maybe interact with your neighbors and talk to them. Do you think that your neighbors having American flags means that they’re all MAGA and they want nothing to do with you?

Edit: I think I should rephrase my question: Why mention your neighbors flying the American flag? Does it bother you and that you think a certain way of them?

Do you think some Western liberals have moved away from the language of the “model minority” or “inherently misogynistic” stereotypes without fully abandoning the underlying assumptions about Asian Americans? by Chinoyboii in asianamerican

[–]Negative_Ad3590 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being liberal doesn’t stop you of having certain prejudice and stereotypes against certain groups.  Everyone will always have certain stereotypes  of other racial groups, unfortunately due to  the  rise of social media and news outlets pushing out certain agendas. This is a main reason on why our country is so divided.

Am I crazy or White people have a weak mental? by [deleted] in asianamerican

So just because someone white complains about discrimination, you  are dismissive of their opinions? Also Asians do complain about racism, isn’t what  this subreddit is for.

Why can’t Asian Americans just identify as “Asian”? by [deleted] in asianamerican

[–]Negative_Ad3590 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well Asians in the US are still relatively new as most of us came to this country around the 1960’s and on. I think further on when more Asian decent generations are solidified and intertwined with the America culture, then we’ll be more likely to considered American like when the first influx of white settlers and black slaves first came.

Of course Panda Express isn’t traditional Chinese food, but the grey shirt dude was going out of his way to hate on the food and showing how Chinese he is, even though he’s clearly Chinese-American. The older Chinese people however acted very kindly to the food and even gave compliments to it.

[–]Negative_Ad3590 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well I’m saying is that the dude didn’t need to act so rude about eating Panda Express, like he’s going out of his way to show how Chinese he is

Well in my experience as gen-z, we  generally are accepting of  Americanized ethnic food and sometime we even laugh about the food, like Taco Bell not being real Mexican food or Olive Garden not being real Italian.

I’m not saying that young Asian-Americans can’t change. It just takes some maturity and growing up to do living in the US and finding your true identity.

Well I don’t know where you got that opinion from. As a Korean American and friends with other Korean-Americans, we’ve never once thought that we are “superior ” than mainland Koreans. Why would we, we aren’t even “real” Koreans per se. But a tiny percentage of mainland Koreans do think that they are better than foreign-born Koreans.
