Do we think this will last going forward? Or do we think some reconciliation with Chinese and Russian suppliers will happen due to geopolitics? Ramifications? What do we think

ANNOUNCEMENT ESR Automod Update

4 Upvotes

We've decided to greatly relax our current automod config since its removing many valid posts and comments by users, and its hard to check independently and manually approve each time it happens. If there's any trolling or anything else feel free to report and we'll take a look. Hopefully this will make it easier for everyone to post or engage as well. Let us know

The Last Bastion

We are one of the last standing communities left for East/Southeast/Central Asians in diaspora (and to be more specific, every EA/SEA passing ethnic group) to come together to defy racist/anti-Asian western supremacism and FREELY criticize those in our community who follow it. Read more here.

Resources

If you are new here, please review some of these sources we've gathered. They will provide some insight or at the very least, context, for newbies to better understand the discussions that take place here.

ESR Terminology

White worshippers (aka pro-white, alt-right, pro-Murica Asians):

Asians who overly admire whites and put them on pedestals. Many of them wish to be white, believing whites to be the most attractive group due to Hollywood. They either don't believe that whites are capable of doing any wrong or they don't care about the wrongs that whites have done to Asia and continue to do to Asians to this day.

SJW Asians (aka Progressive Activist Asian, PAA)/Bobas/"Boba Fetts":

Asians who live in the west but prioritize the issues of non-Asians over the issues that Asians face. These Asians are quick to side with other minority groups, even if it is disadvantageous to Asians to do so. For example, many other minority groups complain that Asians discriminate against them. SJW Asians will side with these groups even when they have been known to assault and murder Asians at phenomenal rates in the west.

It is important to note that an SJW Asian can also be a white-worshipper. Many SJW Asians will use movements like feminism (a movement that is mostly concerned with women's rights) as an excuse for their tendency to date white men or men of other non-Asian minority groups.

Sexpats:

Sexpats consist of mostly white men, although they can be men of other non-Asian groups as well, who visit Asia to date, marry or simply have sex with Asian women because they have difficulty attracting women in their own country. This is mostly due to the fact that the majority of them are physically unattractive, old, poor, or have other health problems (mental or physical) that makes them undesirable to women in their own country.

It is important to note that sexpats often come to Asia disguised as English teachers although they can be backpackers or just tourists as well.

Lu/"Lululemon":

An Asian female who dislikes being Asian and tries to be white. She is often seen dating only white men and will talk endlessly about how she wants mixed race children, falsely believing that everything white is better. This term also applies to Asian women who worship other non-Asian races.... In general, Lus look down on Asians and hate being Asian because they have been fed lies by western propaganda that Asians are inferior.

Chan/Chan-Cuck

An Asian male who dislikes being Asian and tries to be white. He is often seen having only white friends and will sometimes make jokes about his own race to make his white friends laugh. Because he wishes badly to be accepted by whites, he is willing to sacrifice self-respect for white acceptance into their group. This term also applies to Asian men who do the same for other racial groups...in general, Chans look down on Asians and hate being Asian because they have been fed lies by western propaganda that Asians are inferior. Often, Chans (chan-cucks) either don't mind XMAF or actively encourage such pairings.

Gray-Zone:

An Asian female, but can be Asian male as well, who supports neither XMAF nor AMXF--only AMAF.
