Why is it OK to be racist against Asians?

In the other thread about mob violence, one forum member makes a long post about how he judges a person as individuals and doesn't believe in any racial stereotypes with the exception that Asian people can't drive.

Btw, if you think that's not a harmful stereotype it's because you don't know where it comes from. The notion that Asians are these blundering, uncoordinated, unathletic people who can't judge space and distance. I drive just fine, so do my asian friends and family. Asians score highest on visual spatial tests than any other race, yet we are considered unable to even perform the most basic functions like driving a fucking car.

Even in threads that are about anti-racism you still see many people jokingly ripping on Asians, small dicks, weak physically, can't drive, nerds. Why is it OK? Every time a Asian fighter loses a fight in the UFC, you see in the threads people saying it's because they have less testosterone, built like women, etc.

Theres a million people here who bitch about blacks targeting whites because they are seen as weak targets, yet both whites and blacks seem to do this to asians with asians being the most bullied race in America. It seems to me many people are frustrated that they cant speak out against blacks because it's too un-PC so they take it out on Asians and ridicule them. Even though Asians have half the crime rate of whites and Asian on White crime is practically non-existent.

More than half of Asian American teens are bullied in school, 54% the highest out of any race. Also White on Asian crime is the least punished form of racial crime in the U.S.

Read about the Vincent Chin story, an asian man was savagely beaten and killed by 2 white men in Detroit, he was specifically targeted because he was Asian, the 2 white men were angry that Detroits auto industry was fading due to Japanese imports and there was less jobs. When the case went to court the judge cleared both men of all charges even though not because there was no evidence, the men confessed to the crimes and it was clear that they murdered this man. The reason for the aquittal: the judge said that the 2 men were justified in killing this man because they lost their jobs due to foreign competition and they were angry about it and wanted to take it out on an asian person.

The actor Mark Wahlberg randomly attacked an Asian man because of his race, the victim was left savagely beaten and blinded in one eye for life. He received a light sentencing and went on to become a hollywood star. Yet nobody really condemns him for his actions, seems like violence against asians gets you pretty far in this society.

Senator John McCain makes the remark " I hate G00kz" yet is there any backlash? Does the news even cover it? No, he is regarded an american hero that is infallible. Or they say " oh, he was a POW" so he can use that kind of racial slur".

When people talk about the history of racism in the US do they mention the Japanese internment camps? Do they mention the Chinatown race riots that were more violent than the race riots against black communities? Do they mention the Chinese exclusion act? Do mention Asian portrayal and dehumanization in the media? Do they mention the Yellow Peril phenomenon? The LA Koreatown riots and the police with no help from the police? Do they mention the fact that Asians are the most bullied race in America while being the most peaceful and law abiding?

Seems like when an Asian speaks up people are quick to brush it off as another silly chinaman speaking on big boy issues, " leave the race talks to the blacks and whites silly man" or they will marginalize it and say " nobody hates asians". Well if that is true then why are they the most bullied race in America? Often victims of hate crimes and violence? Why are crimes against asians the least punished? Why is it considered politically correct to be racist against them?

I want the cycle of violence, hate and ridicule to stop against asians, this issue needs to be discussed because I am sick of people victimizing my people just because they think its OK to do so.

I used to think all Asians were like Bruce Lee. So I don't think Asians are uncoordinated.

Right, I show you a link and you show me a link, the fact is there is probably a link out there that can prove any theory. Why should I believe that website? and why should you believe the site that I showed you that shows that 54% of Asians are bullied as teens? Even so why are Asians being bullied so much in the classroom in front of their peers, because it's considered socially acceptable to do so, it's not considered taboo. Why do Asians have the highest suicide rates in the military? Why is it ok for John McCain to say "g00kz" and its' not covered by the media? Why are we never taught in schools about the history of oppression against asians? Why did 2 men murder Vincent Chin and get away scot free? Why did a upper class canadian woman run over an elderly asian woman and get a $400 fine and in court the judge berated the asian family and said " this woman that ran over your grandma has suffered as much as you did."

WWII Japanese internment comes up a lot in the 'oppression of Asians' but wouldn't that just apply to Japanese in the context of a war against Japan?

There are a lot of patterns where subsets get expanded to cover larger groups in order to create more Victims but is that really doing anybody any good? I think every subgroup could find victimhood all throughout history.

I can understand the innocent Japanese who were caught up in that being offended, but I don't understand how all Asian groups could be.

Lol at the poster who researched the link and brought clarity to the issue with NeoNinja coming back with "Well I can just post a link disagreeing so it doesn't matter... hey look at this one instance!"

I'm going to read over the report that the previous poster linked to but the numbers still don't add up, I just skimmed over it and the bullying rate is still highest among asians. Regardless of the findings, asians are still the most bullied race in high schools no matter how you want to frame it.
 
I lived in Vancouver (Hongcouver) for a few years and I can say that the driving stereotype is accurate. I'm sorry, but it just is. You can call me racist all you want, I was often the victim of racism in that city. In fact, from what I saw, after east Indians the Chinese were by far the most racist in that city. White people didn't come close. Spacial recognition isn't the problem, it's cultural. You know when you're driving and you're trying to exit a parking lot or gas station on to a busy road? Usually when faced with heavy backed up traffic a person seeing you in your predicament will look over and wave you in. In my experience for several years driving in the Vancouver area, almost 100 percent of the time, the Asian drivers would look forward and pretend to not notice you. It was the most frustrating and inconsiderate thing to deal with every day. If you look at China, culturally the people are by Western standards totally inconsiderate. Even to the point of walking by hurt toddlers and running them over. The same thing, pretending not to notice.

But I think that overall white people respect Asians for their intelligence and resilience. They were heavily abused and marginalized after coming over but still prospered. When was the last time you saw an Asian homeless person? Or even a drug addict for that matter? It's pretty rare.

Jon Maccain was tortured in Vietnam for Christ sake are you for real? Of course he's going to be racist against that group.

Over all, Asians tend to use racism a lot, and cry it when it's not happening. I know that it happens, but it's not common. In Vancouver in places like Burnaby or Richmond the Chinese won't even fucking hire a white guy. It's blatantly obvious too. Go into a subway or a convenience store and have a look at the manager, if it's a Chinese person all of the staff will be Chinese. They get a pass.

It would be the second coming of the god damned 3rd Reich if a white manager had all white employees.

People probably bully asians less out of fear of getting karate chopped.

I;m going to conduct my own research into the issue, the numbers don't add up, I'm seeing tons of evidence to the contrary, news reports, articles, websites stating the rise of bullying against asians in cities like NY and Philadelphia by 50%. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong thats fine. Still doesn't address the other issues I brought up. But I will do my due process before coming to conclusions.
 
Asians are uncoordinated? I thought they were all ninjas. TS's screen name appears to confirm my suspicion.

I think TS is trorring.

Indeed. I'll give him credit though. Many times you can read and article and get very fired up when it's something close to you or an issue you care about. It's hard to even find all the data you need to make an informed opinion. That's why I like forums. A lot of times I can come in hell bent on a subject and have a change of opinion after a few discussions and insight from other posters.

I wasn't meaning to attack TS either about the other poster finding clarity in the data that was posted. The reaction just made laugh cause I've seen it many times before on here.

It's all a big conspiracy by the US government.

After that you can organize a race-vs-race auto-x or road course event to settle this once and for all. All the guys in tokyo drift seemed to have pretty solid skills, so I'm not making any bets.
 
Does anybody else find it funny that almost everybody is perfectly Ok with racial stereotypes if they are positive? Like black people having big dicks or Asians being smart.

They own it like a champ but if it's negative then it's a problem. Now I understand that one is much more harmful than the other, but it shows something I think.

Racism against any group save black people is largely ignored. Its seemingly acceptable to hate Muslims, Asians, French people, other white people but god forbid, don't hate black people. :icon_conf

Lol. That reminds me of a time when I was teenageGoat and I was illegally discriminated against when I applied at the Chinese restaurant at the mall food court.

I can make a mean cat fried rice but I wasn't even considered due to my skin color.
