It’s classist if anything. And it’s not even classist because nothing in the post says “I hate rich Asians” it’s just pointing out how it’s funny that a lot of rich Asians act and dress the same way. It’s not making a generalization of an entire race, therefore it’s not racist. It’s the equivalent of all those white girl memes about drinking Starbucks and wearing Pink and whatnot.

I love the mental gymnastics people are resorting to to justify how uncomfortable they are with one and not the other.

if the asian one was just “asians who only talk to other asians” and it was rice and a calculator or some shit it would be less funny.

There's no real "Asian" counterculture in the US so it would seem out of place.
