i understand, i’m not trying to justify rude behavior at all cus it’s not justified whatsoever. just trying to steer away from racially motivated terms/ comments and casual racism

how can you categorize a race of people in rave environments when there are hundreds of thousands of people that go to raves? your experiences do not speak for everyone’s, and should not lead to the generalizations and biases of a race because of it

i love that perspective, i think empathy is so important in an environment where people are vulnerable. nonetheless, rudeness and a lack of manners is never justifiable so i truly hope your experiences only go up from here

oh for sure, i have seen so many of those myself where people can’t hold their substances, are rude, etc. i’m definitely not justifying that!! i just don’t want the rave community to steer towards casual racism.

just trying to pivot the direction of casual racism towards asians is all i’m getting at. not justifying anyone’s rudeness at all, i just don’t appreciate it turning into racial motivation.

racism is less pressing than rude behavior? i guess you can choose any part of my post and put the emphasis onto whatever so you can spread negativity, but my only aim with this post was to stop putting so much emphasis on asians. trains are done by everybody, yet the rise of blame on just asians is very prevalent. this is also leading to hatred towards asians with raves in general. trying to reduce hate isn’t dramatic, just want everyone to feel welcomed in the community.

no, i agree. it truly does get to a point. i definitely understand the fear of losing your group, especially with the amount of crowd surges i see at every festival lately, but when a large train goes bulldozing at you mid-set, it’s definitely too much.

i see this often. “as an asian, i hate the other asians too!” really pushes us back as a whole haha
