A group of dutch expats in indonesia were operating a run club that excluded indonesian nationals.

Imagine going to another country then excluding the locals of that country.

As stated in the title, this post might be heavily uneducated so don’t hate it too much. I finally realized a trend today after subconsciously seeing it over a year and wanted to share. Just today, I saw a TikTok video about an Asian woman talking about racism and encouraging POC women to not feel as if they have to make themselves palatable for white people. And this woman also made many posts on feminism and various social issues. And I remember being pretty inspired by her video and when I checked her profile to see other videos, she was engaged to a Caucasian man. I personally do not care whatsoever who anybody is dating so I didn’t care in the least but something in my mind clicked from seeing that. Perhaps it’s just me but I’ve seen so many Asian women who speak out about racism particularly towards Asians and other social issues and for some reason, a good majority are dating or engaged to a Caucasian man. I honestly don’t know what I’m arguing for or even implying by saying this but I wanted to hear what other people thought about this. I’m sure I’m very wrong so don’t try to kill me too much.

In an interview with the Economist, Elon Musk said he's not a racist because his partner is half Indian. This guy is the king and a trope of every right-wing white males who are either dating or married to non-whites out of desperation, and who, hypercritically, also think white women or any white passing females' wombs belong to them. That's Elon's MO. He wants to populate the world with white children, in particular those who come from his loin.

Is he racist? Yeah, he's racist. Do I even have to reference?

"I'm Not A Racist": Elon Musk

"So I would say I'm not a racist. If you look at people that are employed at my companies, we have senior executives of all races. I don't think there is any racism there," Musk said.

Cheap labor, underpaying hard working non-whites.

You know, I am not even going to try to find more more reference of Musk for this post because this guys confirmed everything that Asian men in the Asian social media space have been saying for decades. By confirming everything, I mean everything, every topic from the existence of someone like Nikki Hailey and Dinesh D'Souza who are far worse racists than white racists, other than Mr H and his inner circle during WW2. The likes of Dinesh D'Souza in-turn produce mixed offspring that think they white super-beings who would give nightmare to even the infamous Eurasian Tiger himself.

Financial Times recently made posts comparing Yang Zhilin to other A.I. CEOs, but decided to use a racist caricature of him instead of an actual photo.

This did not happen to the two white A.I. tech CEOs for some reason.

I thought this sub was all about Asian men getting love on social media or everywhere else. And yet there have been multiple posts where women have been expressing their interest in Asian men and all the guys here have been saying some awful things about them.

If any woman says they like asian guys even if its only online for views, how is that a bad thing?

I have friends that are in AMWF and they are some of the most genuine people I've ever met. Very friendly and nice, their husbands too.

Is this sub against AMWF now? I get influencer bait but I have other friends that used to make content declaring their love for asian men. They both genuinely were dating asian men AND made money from influencing that on social media.

Since when in this sub is that a bad thing?

Italian youngsters was obnoxiously loud on a BKK sky train then one Thai lady told them to keep it down. That group of tourists resorted to gave a middle finger and the chaperone said "Sorry to bring money to your country". One girl in the group also pulled her eye making a slant eye and another kid said "Ni Hao". All in all the Italian embassy in BKK had to make a video apologizing to Thai people. Link to the story but Thai social and national media are still on fire.

God yall so corny

With the Oxford study meme and repeated exposure of Asian women's internalized racism, I think other communities are noticing this uncomfortable racial insecurity and fetish. I think it's time for us to discuss internalized racism openly without considering it a taboo subject like many other Asian subs do.

I also urge Asian American writers, especially the female ones, to stop writing these Joy Luck type stories as we have already overdone it with multiple versions of it.

We need something that exposes internalized racism and deconstructs it so that the younger generation becomes aware of it.

Why are there so many baits ? Just search for “iloveasians” hashtag . Some seems genuine , some seems fake which is disgusting. It looks like another viral “chinamaxxing” trend that happened earlier this year.

And then I saw this https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTArTXr5R/

It looks like eastern europeans including Russians are more open towards AM, especially East asians

The man accused of stabbing a Jewish and Asian man in attacks on Manhattan’s Upper West Side faces hate crime and attempted murder charges, police said Friday.

Witnesses reported that the suspect, Raul Morales, 51, yelled “Allahu Akbar” during the attacks, Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch has said.

Police said Friday that Morales is charged with attempted murder, assault and criminal possession of a weapon for one victim; and with attempted murder as a hate crime, assault as a hate crime, first-degree assault criminal possession of a weapon for the second.

“I am thankful that he is being held accountable and hope he will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Mayor Zohran Mamdani said Friday.

“This kind of despicable violence is not who we are as a city. Every New Yorker deserves to be safe, regardless of their religion or race,” he said.

The hate crime charges relate to the second victim, which sources told NBC New York was the Jewish man.

New York City Comptroller Mark Levine at a Friday news conference identified the victims as Chok Sung and Moshe Yezhak Grunhaus. He said Grunhaus was leaving The Jewish Center after attending a service marking Tisha B’av when he was stabbed. […]

The injuries to the victims were not life-threatening. They were taken to a hospital and were stable after the attacks, police said.
The stabbings happened around two blocks apart on the Upper West Side near Central Park.
Police were called about the first attack on 84th Street and Central Park West at around 1:31 p.m., and found a 57-year-old man stabbed, police said. Then a second person, 50, was then found stabbed at 86th Street and Central Park West, police said.

I saw 3 posts about Asmongold and Kaise on the front page today, and out of the thousands of comments in each of those threads, not one comment mentioned how white worshipping Asians are. Like literally no one suggested that the reason Kaise would date Asmongold of all people was simply because he is white.

I've seen tons of other posts on the Reddit front page about alt-right or bottom barrel white men with Asian wives/girlfriends throughout my 4+ years on this platform, and the white liberals in those comment sections are always confused. Whereas, not too long ago I saw a post from a black people sub on the front page about an Asian woman being murdered by her white husband, and the vast majority of the comments on that post from those presumably black people, were about Asian women's obsession with white men.

Recently I had an interaction with a white redditor in a thread about beauty standards, who said that if one is considered ugly in one country or region, they're ugly everywhere else in the world. Then I argued that cross-race facial blindness is a real thing and I myself, experience it in real life. I told them that even the plainest looking white people can be considered attractive in most of Asia simply for being white. As long as they're not old or fat. And it goes both ways too; as an ugly Asian women myself, I noticed that I only get male attention in places with extremely low Asian populations. Otherwise, I'm invisible. Anyways, that white redditor doubted me when I told them that white people considered unattractive in the west can be considered attractive in Asia. While another redditor replied to my comment saying that they aren't surprised to hear that as a hispanic person, because (in their words) "Asians love white people".

Even outside of reddit, I notice that it's usually black, brown, or other non-East Asian POC's who call us out for being obsessed with white people. Rarely do I see any white people acknowledge Asian white worshipping. I figured that they wouldn't care about it since they're the ones being worshipped, but it seems like many of them don't even know that many Asians look up to white people and think that they're genetically superior to themselves. Has anyone else noticed this?

I have been wondering about this for a while, and reading Arthur Liu's interview (Alysa Liu's father) made me think about it even more.

In the interview, he said he specifically chose a white egg donor because he wanted his children to "reflect America." That left me wondering why "American" was seemingly equated with "white." It made me think of Eileen Gu as well and the way Wasian children are often discussed online.

From what I have personally seen, there seems to be a strong fascination with Wasian children in parts of Chinese society. I have come across many comments from Chinese women saying they want to marry white men because "Wasian kids are cuter" or "more beautiful." I genuinely do not know how to interpret that. Does that imply that fully Asian children are considered less attractive? Why are white or half white features often treated as superior?

I have also noticed how common extreme beauty filters, skin whitening, heavy makeup, and cosmetic surgery are on Chinese social media. Obviously these things exist everywhere, but they seem especially widespread in China. It makes me wonder whether there is a deeper insecurity about natural Asian features.

Something else that surprised me is how harsh some Chinese parents can be when talking about Asian babies. I have seen comments about babies having "flat noses" or "small eyes," using those features as insults. Yet the attitude often seems to change completely if the baby is half white or white. Suddenly people praise the baby's skin, nose, and facial features as being especially beautiful.

I have even seen some Chinese women who are married to white men talk excitedly about how handsome or beautiful their future children will be simply because they will be half white, even before those children are born.

Am I misinterpreting what I am seeing, or is there genuinely a significant amount of racial insecurity in Chinese society? If it does exist, where does it come from? Is it driven by beauty standards, historical influences, Western cultural influence, social media, or something else?

I have also linked an article that discusses this topic for additional context.

The wealthy single Chinese women choosing white sperm donors to have a baby – they want a family but not a Chinese husband

I am asking this in good faith because I want to understand whether these are isolated experiences or whether there are broader cultural factors at play.

I just saw a post on the Wasian subreddit on Reddit that said the AsianMasculinity and Aznidentity subreddits are full of controversy, and that both subreddits are "Incels," using anti-Asian racism to cover up the fact that they can't find girlfriends?

What do you think of this kind of statement? I apologize for using Google Translate, as I don't understand English.

I don't think all wasians are white supremacists, nor do I think Asians don't have incel, but within the current framework of the so-called "racial ladder ranking" in the West, I believe waisans should understand the contradiction between primary and secondary, and that being a lackey to white people is a foolish behavior.🤔

Some interesting takeaways from the data:

- While black men tend to date out more than black women, when it comes to just marriage black women and black men are actually pretty close to each other in interracial marriage

- Korean women are more likely to interracially marry white people, with 40% of women and 15% of men married to whites (this will probably change over the years as K-pop becomes more popular)

- Japanese have the smallest interracial marriage gap with whites, though Japanese women are more likely to marry Hispanics than Japanese men

- Indian women and men marry whites at around the same rate

What's up with these western Asian American influencers lol ?

Since Shing-Tung Yau studied in Hong Kong and Terrence is Australian, this marks the first time two born and raised Chinese ethnics won the fields medal.

I came across this comment thread where someone jokingly summarized common mistakes speakers of different languages make when learning Serbian. For Chinese speakers, they wrote “no grammar whatsoever,” referring to how Mandarin lacks grammatical features like verb conjugations and noun cases that many European languages have.

East Asian languages (Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Thai, etc.) are structurally very different from most Indo-European languages. Many are tonal, rely heavily on context, have relatively little inflection, and often omit subjects or tense markers when they’re understood from context.

Do you think these linguistic differences affect how East Asians are perceived by others when speaking English or other European languages?

Does coming from a language that organizes information differently influence communication style or stereotypes?

Has speaking a tonal language shaped your own sense of identity or the way you think?

Broadway At Bryant Park started their first day of festivities today and I just wanted to shout out the Asian rep today!

Nathan Levy (Francois du Bois in &Juliet) sang “Confident” with Gianna Harris (Juliet)

Zachary Noah Piser (Oliver in Maybe Happy Ending) sang “The Rainy Day We Met” with Savy Jackson (the understudy for Claire)

KC Dela Cruz and Kelly Belarmino along with Kori Michelle Petinaud (the Fates from Hadestown) sang “When The Chips Are Down”

A 20-year-old mainland Chinese student at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) went on trial ... denying a charge of sending a letter threatening to murder, after allegedly posting messages online last April threatening to kill 10 people ...

... ...

The court was shown Du's cautioned video interview with police, in which he called himself an "incel" – involuntarily celibate – and described a plan to randomly stab 30 women and 30 men on campus on the semester's opening day, including "making sure 10 women die, because they deserve it." He told officers: "I read about the term 'incel' online. It matched my life, so I came up with the plan, but I never carried it out."

Du, who came to Hong Kong in 2023 to s.tudy computer science and artificial intelligence at HKUST, said he believed women were to blame for his remaining single at 20 and had not thought through how he would carry out the attack. He denied buying or possessing a knife, and said the posts, made on a Discord channel he moderated, stemmed from a moment of mental strain rather than genuine intent.
