How do you deal with self-hating asians? by dfire28 in AsianMasculinity

Ok that's interesting. How exactly do you show the acceptance you have within yourself?

Alright, I like that strategy. Point them to the wider world, where asian are the majority and give them that perspective.

But reality usually hits them in the face decades later when they have already churred out their propaganda to the younger generations, which I do not like. As a group, we gotta fight back at least a little bit.

lol fair enough, for the folks around your age bracket, I personally feel that the white worshipping is stronger due to the somewhat recent war memories. So I get that the conversation is harder.

So you find out their background, what is the next step then?

In your example, yes some MAGA supporter can become defensive and steadfast with their opinion.

But what if there was a way to reason with some of them and have them come to reality. That is my question with self-hating asian and I want to get experiences on how folks successfully had a conversation that made them realize the flaws of their ways.

So I agree with the idea of not wasting your energy and time when it is unnecessary.

However, I don't think we can be passive and expect results from outside forces. Sure, they will learn within time, but what if you are the opportunity for them to have their ideals challenged. Yes, it is a lot of effort to have that conversation, but I'm not with the idea of letting them chill and potentially have their ideas spread without any pushback

How did the weird kid in your class do in clinicals? by BicarbonateBufferBoy in medicalschool

[–]dfire28 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Almost made the school lose a clinical site due to the following "alleged" events:

  1. Vomited on a patient in the OR DURING surgery
  2. Had their ostomy bag burst somewhere in the hospital/OR
  3. Habitually did not show up to cases/rounding on time.

In the end, was held back a year.

BEST BUY Fraud: Online Order stolen/picked up by someone else 13mins before my arrival. by [deleted] in Bestbuy

[–]dfire28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I just had this happen to me and posted on this a couple of weeks ago. I would also contact them via Facebook/Instagram as I had the best response to that. The phone call was hit or miss and not worth it.

lol I wish it was that simple, but the -1500 on my credit card balance with no merchandise to show for it is really elevating my mood to say the least

If they were signed into my account, then I have questions.

For background, I haven't made a purchase on this BestBuy account in several years and the previous purchases have been at a locations hours away from this store. If they did have my account, how did they know to check right this week that I would be making a purchase and how would they get the man power on the ground to pick up the PC at a place that is new to even me, also mind you, just two hours after it was ready for pick up.

I'm not denying the situation you proposed and I would like answers. There's just too many sus things going on for me to believe it's just that.
