classic

She's hot

"One Asian person supports someone who's probably a racist (but could also just be extremely fucking stupid), this means we shouldn't care about any Asian people being attacked by racists."

delete your fucking account. one racist shithead doesnt' speak for the whole movement

fucking ignored.

she doesn't represent Asian people, though.

What did she do here that was racist?

I too like to blame an entire race for the actions of one person.

where was this nuance when the african American community was being labled anti asian and the source of all violence committed against them during the pandemic?

Well if others were being racist, I guess you have full support to be racist as well!

Don't forget your clown hat btw :)

idk if that's a proper analogy.

it would be more like us being held accountable for Nick Cannon's anti-Semitism, for example.

edit: at post 9

Im Asian and I literally have 0 idea who that woman is

and I dont know who Melissa Chen is either

Racist TC smh

"A major Asian political pundit (so far) and politician have come to the defense of an Anti black racist"

"not all Asians"

between these 2 and the Awkwafina debacle, there's simply a conversation that needs to be had about the constant one way alliance between these 2 communities and the anti black biases that come from major Asian personalities

TC is a racist.

Blaming an entire ethnicity for one persons stupidity is... well, I think it rhymes with schmacism...

Very racist topic by an individual who clearly sees race first in every situation.

or African American men being held accountable for Dave Chappelle's supposed transphobia? Oh wait, Vanity Fair published a whole ass article that did exactly that

Man. Why you always doing so much

that's their ignorance, though.

unfortunately, black men (black people in general) have been treated as some kinda monolith, but it doesn't do us any service to lash out against entire groups of people because of what some lady says/does.

does tc know what irony is

My point is, if African Americans, particularly men, are gonna be framed based on the opinions of a few celebrities (see: Ice Cube and Kanye on donald trump and the supposed desire of black men to access white patriarchy that was widely disseminated and barely challenged during the last presidential cycle), keep the same energy across the board

Literally responding to a post calling you out for blaming a wider group for the actions of a few, by doing the same thing again.

Such a basic gimmick...

A prominent New York politician and a pundit with a major following

"just a couple of people"

cool, bro

if we're recognizing that using the views of a few select men, that some view as problematic, to attack the values, worth, etc. of the ethnic/racial group as insidious, we should also keep that same energy when it happens with other people, no?

And how the fuck do you figure that a politician or a famous pundit are in any way representative of the average person?

No, you're just looking for excuses to spout racist crap. Fuck off.

I love interracial relationships

Newsflash, pal, but THATS ALREADY HAPPENING TO BLACK PEOPLE.

Im just wondering why a couple of rappers represent black men politically (which was ABSOLUTELY the narrative leading up to the election), a sparse of attacks by black people represented the covid anti asian sentiment, but a major asian politician and pundit are just 2 randos and dont represent anything

love it...

my point is that we know that this is wrong when it happens to black men, correct, so why should we extend that level of assigning values to others because some person has terrible views?

just because others do it, it validates it when we do?

people who think black men must think or feel a certain way because some rappers do already have some anti-black views, and use what they can for confirmation bias. or they might follow some kinda narrative due to that bias (like the thing you said with the attacks).

She doesnt represent the Asian community, but did she receive any criticism from that community about her endorsement of Rogan? If not then you can make an argument the community is tacitly condoning racism of a major media figure.

That's right. This topic is just more trying to pit people against one anorher to maintain the status quo by not letting people who are being marginalized find solidarity.

This is such a classic alt right move.

that a fucking comedian is used as the avatar for the social ethos of a major minority group?
