He followed up by asking if I voted, which was the real question he wanted to ask. If I was anything other than ethnic I dont think he would have led with that question

lol. I had a feeling you were going to say that. Either way, still seems pretty fucking racist, at least a micro aggression as you say, unless he was super nice about it

towards me in particular no. my mom and aunt both had people cuss them out in grocery stores and my uncle the other day had someone pull up in their car next to him while he was jogging and tell him to "go back to china"

I mean, personally, I think it's better to just laugh these things off.

Words only cut as deep as you let them, after all. Fuck these people.

i have thick skin, but it's better to discuss these things, because ignoring problems (in society) only perpetuates them

Thats the point...its racist to assume I'm foreign just because I'm Asian. But I've talked to this guy multiple times. He's the repairman for the building I've lived in for 7 years...

Well, that's totally new information--so this is a "white" dude you know, like by name? Why didn't you mention this part at the beginning?

It isn't ignoring, it's laughing about them.

And ignoring does help. Bullies want reactions. Racists want reactions.

That's not what I asked. I'm also Asian and I'd like to support you, but the way you salaciously pose your topics and then slowly and cryptically slide relevant information in later, sometimes even changing the narrative, makes me feel like I'm being trolled and that's not cool. And given the responses from other people in your posts, I'm apparently not alone in thinking this. I'm not attacking you, I'm spending the time to write this because I deal with this shit too and I think it's important to be real and open about it.

long term, idgaf about this one instance or any given instance, im talking about spreading awareness and improving as a society

@indica all the relevant info is in the OP. it obviously wasn't someone that just randomly stopped me on the street to ask. it's someone i barely know, i've talked to him maybe 6 times in 7 years

Imma be honest, I don't think talking on GameFAQs or twitter or anywhere on the internet will change anything.

Honestly, it sounded like someone just randomly stopped you on the street (or voting center)--that's actually how a lot of my experiences are with this type of thing. But I wasn't just talking about this topic--you have a few dealing with your experiences like this. Again, I'm not attacking you, I even deleted my post as it came off as somewhat insulting. But if you're really about spreading awareness, the details can give us context and make the spreading of awareness easier. Like I asked, do you know his name..are you friendly with him? Is he like 70? Is he nice to you or does he come off as suspicious of your legal status and say such things? All of these are relevant to creating context.
