Some idiot law professor from Georgetown, whole talking about the discrimination of housing between black and white Americans- starts talking about the "Chinese wall" between the two communities.
Yes, that's a business term, but it's an outdated, culturally insensitive (dare I say racist) term.
No awareness whatsoever. I'm so fucking tired of this. On NPR of all channels.
Man I dunno what to do with this hair, feel like it's time for something new
I know Asians are hard to come by in the YouTube gaming space so I wanted to share this channel that features an Asian host.
How did you guys like Ugly Delicious? I finally made my way through it on my backlog, and I find myself loving all of the guests and Chang's Asian friends. Because Dave's a jabroni, lol.
Well the hilarious thing is in the dumpling episode Ali Wong addressed that very thing, basically saying "well yeah Dave but your customers are dumb bourgey white folks who don't know the value of a dollar."As a person that hates the gentrification of food, I didn't like the central theme of series that much.
I know from his point of view an a restaurant owner and chef its great to charge 20 dollars for 6 soup buns but as a consumer I rather be paying 5 dollars.
But then I also don't find his food that impressive, Its a little better than the hole in the walls from Flushing but not that much better to pay that price.
Because they're white and some of them have Asian girlfriends/wives, taught English in Asia, like anime.That thread about the prom dress is such garbage, fuck me. How are people so obtuse?
The dress on its own is questionable, but juxtaposed against the poses? Nah fuck that mess. Shit is racist period. Doesn't matter if it's from some youtube meme if the origin of that meme has a racist origin.I dunno guys, I'm kind of okay with the qipao but kinda down on the whole namaste pose :/
There's never going to be a perfect messenger, so I'm going to give the guy a pass. Not saying his vernacular isn't problematic of course.It's not just about giving the girl the benefit of the doubt, it's that it's inconceivable that there could be any racism in the situation at all. Of course, the twitter guy being an idiot doesn't help.
New ERA in a nutshell.The dress on its own is questionable, but juxtaposed against the poses? Nah fuck that mess. Shit is racist period. Doesn't matter if it's from some youtube meme if the origin of that meme has a racist origin.
People in that thread are doing triple backfilps to try and justify it.
New Era is the old-Gaf that's banned-Gaf friendly.
Era only has a horse in the black vs white race. :/Era has become more anti Asian it seems. Not even that shit was checked on Gaf and gaf was pretty strict with the bans.
I dunno guys, I'm kind of okay with the qipao but kinda down on the whole namaste pose :/
This is where I'm at. I guarantee that the prevailing attitude in that would be different if the girl was wearing indigenous clothing or a dress from some other culture, and the double standard is the part that makes me the angriest.I honestly don't have a problem with people wearing a qipao, but some of the posts in that thread are pretty shitty.
