That's not accurate because every Asian is not from Japan, Korea or China. India population is about to pass China again this year in 2023, and they're dark. There are various other dark skin Asians in Asia, so your comment is a bit off because people don't seem to know what is in the continent (lack of knowing history).
Unfortunately, today in 2023, the only way to get people to respect you is to be a credible threat, making them afraid to get their a** kicked. This world is still a jungle.
Let's face it, many of us Asians don't have that much political power, and that's why many people in this country aren't afraid to make fun of us. There are very few Asian Americans in politics.
@@brendagordon4571 Easier said than done. Many Asians don't care about politics and many don't even vote. Maybe the younger generation of Asians will change that but I know many Asians just aren't interested in American politics.
A big reason why is because we as a group haven't defended ourselves sufficiently. We care too much about being accepted as a model minority so we don't challenge the hegemony. And when we experience racist insults and crimes, we keep our heads down. Want change? Stand up for yourself and for the people who look like you, and for people in general. And if you're already doing it, then keep it up.
I see this argument a lot but this also stems from culture too. You look at China, doesn’t the government there want you to obey and not challenge the government? I think that is where the root of the issue comes from.
@@all-star6025 I would say that Chinese culture is intrinsically not passive and nor does it tolerate insults, especially not racism directed towards them. People in China have no qualms about being direct or loudly arguing or even protesting. The one red line they have is that they tend not to protest for things that threaten the stability of the incumbent regime, and that is because they would much rather live a continually improving life than threaten such a prospect. On this last point, I would agree with you. However, this behaviour is a product of China's culture, not of China's government. This is Confucianism. And this speaks only of the relation between the government and the governed, not of the people being meek towards abusers, and also not of the people standing idly by if the government fails in their duty.
I remember years ago I was watching The Bachelor (they need to cancel that show by the way) and it was when it was very non-diverse. There was one Asian girl on there and one of the other white women said "why would he be interested in her, she's Asian..." she said it so nonchalantly and it was just so gross. No one even said anything about that.
I remember seeing America Top Model clip and there was this Korean girl that said she wanted represent Asians in positive light but trashed Asian men. Tyra and the panel called her out on her bullshit.
Its hard to ignore. Lived my life in Kansas before I moved. Dealt with alot of racism. Got into alot of fights because I did not tolerate the white/black kids calling me "ching chong/dog eater etc." After awhile I earned a reputation as someone who didnt put up with any shit. Eventually, more asians moved there and we formed our own little posse and nobody messed with us. We weren't hoodlums, 3 out 4 became physicians and the other one became a geologist. haha
Pretty sure we're just people. Asian, Black, Aliens. Who gives two fcks. We're not good because our food or culture. We're just good because.........we're fkn human. But I get that you mean well. Much love regardless. :D
Growing up I always noticed how people had no problem picking on me for being Asian. Growing up, I used to hid the fact that I was into anime/K-pop or that I had good grades because my Mexican and Black peers would always pick on me “omg man you’re so Asian” or “all you Asians are the same” stuff like that. Not that I ever would but imagine if I said the same thing to them, I would have got my ass handed to me. I love Black people, r&b/hip hop and the culture. Naturally I follow The Shade Room. There been times when I peep the comments of a post and SO many people would say the most racist and ignorant things about Asians, those comments would have so many likes. The majority would find it funny or agree with it. That just hurts me and makes me sad because I thought we were past that. Fried chicken and water melon aren’t funny jokes. Neither should eating dog or bat soup jokes. Making fun of other people’s cultural food that they grew up on is so wack. Also calling your nail tech “Ling Ling” is lame af and instead you should respect her by learning her real name. I just hope in the future, people would show the same care in what they say about Asians like how they treat all the other minority groups.
Hate to say this but The Shade Room is notoriously terrible even to the Black community. We're fed up with that group ourselves so it's a live and learn experience on which Black spaces are not only going to be welcoming to other groups but other kinds of Black people as well. Same with how not all Asian podcast groups or channels in general are the friendliest towards Black folks. If you truly (as you put) love Black folks, and I mean us (the people) and not just the mainstream consumable parts of our culture, I urge you deeply to branch out to smaller Black creators cause there are plenty that are Asian friendly unlike the mainstream ones that are considered problematic within even the Black community itself.
@@tednguyen7258 asian and whte women are the same. They're even in protest in Atlanta right now. When everything is fine they side with Americans but when they cry because Americans are being racist to them they go like..ah..I'm asian fight for me my asian people. They need to back off and take accountability that when everything is fine im not asian right now. Specially the asian American they keep saying they are not asian they are American then they expect Asians to fight for them when discriminated.
@@obviouslyme3950 I 100% agree with this comment, TSR is so damn TOXIC! A lot of these Black American blog/news sites are that live for the most ratchet & worst of the Black community but are the same ones that will get upset if you call them out & true the Black community can be very monolithic & binary about how to be Black & really just judge themselves & everyone else according to a stereotype. That's why sometimes I just can't relate with some people. But all that aside yeah, there are some many positive Black news & entertainment channels that spread positivity & you have Black people who love Anime & Asian culture as well, it's a rising & somewhat common thing nowadays, we exist we're here. That damn mainstream makes it hard to notice unfortunately.
@@FluteCheerios Absolutely agree. Even Black folks have to navigate our own spaces carefully and I certainly do it myself. Sometimes the help out and give money to anything remotely Black attitude can be a detriment because not everything Black owned, made, or including us is for us. Therefore knowing what to support and who's really for collective respect and liberation across the board, is a vital skill to have cause otherwise you end up giving views and money to people who may be skin folk but ain't kin folk. And yep, Black folks been into anime before it became a thing for celebrities to announce that they were into it themselves. I'm one of those Black folks who grew up (and still is) one of those anime nerds back when it was considered whack to be that. Not to mention there's plenty of Blasian folks out there doing the work that really don't get the support that they should from any side of their heritage so make sure to check up on them as well. Overall cultivate your spaces carefully and watch who you give your viewership and money to.
Sa an African American, I happy to see you finally speak up. Don't let others decide what offends you. You tell them what offends you. After that, the rule should be set. Meaning, once you tell them, there should be no other discussion about it. They should respectfully be more considerate.
Even the two mass shootings everyone was shocked 2 asians committed the crimes, those were horrific crimes but the fact that most of the nation was shocked that we could be capable of something like that makes me see that people dont see us as human beings with problems just like everyone else. They see us as the model citizens who take abuse and still smile and carry on with our day. Esp the older generations they dont complain, dont speak up, dont get involved with social injustice cause its "not our problem"
@@sarawinardi6745 have you ran into Asians that are born here, you make fun of us you're gonna end up in the hospital, I dare you to come make fun of us to our face and not in social media
@@sarawinardi6745 is it a bad mindset? Are Asians better off shooting each other over cold fries and too much mayo or is it more about not enough duck sauce?
I think the older generation not only sees politics as something from afar but also were the 1st immigrants, which means that they can't defend themselves with words as well as the next gen
Imagine saying this about any ethnic group besides Asian. There would be a public outrage. Why do they hate us? Our kids are educated, our crime rate is nonexistent, we are high income earners and we are hardworking. We as community are too docile. We gotta stand up to this.
Our community doesn't vote, doesn't volunteer for social causes unless it looks good on their resume or college applications. We' re so worried about not rocking the boat.
Yep... the unlying feeling is that China's population is too big to manage in the near future for resources. In order to get the resources they need, they are starting to conquer the world. As you see, China is planning to set up shops in these countries so that you can have access to them. It's really simple to see.
i would've never thought to frame it the way you did with the title, but daaaamn it caught my eye. being outspoken and speaking the truth! your takes on how general america views asians were super poignant and insightful. glad y'all put this video out 👍
Should we ask the native Americans if there are too many white people? This is unbelievable, I'm not American myself but I have family living in Cali. I do hope it will still be safe for them.
I think it's because Asians are an easy target. We're passive and encouraged not to push back. If you look up bullying stats by race, Asians are the most victimized. Also, since the U.S. is in a cold war with China, it makes it seem more acceptable. China is also the most populous country, makes it easier to justify.
I grew up and lived in the US for over 40 years, it all boils down to political value, we Asians, and especially Chinese Americans, do not have any political value because as a group we traditionally do not vote as a block, unlike the blacks, Latinos and the Jews. We also as a group do not protest or speak up.....whereas these other groups will protest at the slightest negative comment towards them.
It's purely historical. These are ethnic groups that have been present in the United States for several generations even though there were Japanese Americans and Chinese-Americans before. You tend to forget the banishment act of Asians and it is thanks to the civil rights struggle that the immigration of non-whites was again authorized.
As a black American with a Chinese wife I really hate the persistent and openly accepted caricatures of Asian people, and how all stereotypes, including those that are ostensibly “good” inevitably fail to bring the understanding that we all actually need.
Let's be realistic and look from a psychological standpoint from the outside looking in (and these are generalizations). 1) Asians don't talk back 2) Asians don't fight back 3) Asians don't assemble in numbers 4) Asians (when rebuttals are required) aren't well versed in verbal sword-play (because of culture and points #1, 2 and 3 and 5) If you want to feel bigger about yourself...one way is to make the 'lesser' person feel smaller to make yourself appear larger (especially if there's almost 0% risk in any way shape or form). That said...I'm Asian, but if I was a non-Asian who was a negative person, had insecurity issues and/or was racist or bias...I would 1,000,000% talk shit about Asians almost every day. It's THAT easy. And that's not a good thing.
This is a very good point. Often times Asians are more critical about other Asians than other races. But it's also about spending their entire lives to fit in to white America, and when another Asian doesn't conform, it is a threat to themselves as well.
Its different for me, I won't put up with anywhere. I am very proud to be Asian. We have culture, we honor our family and our elders, plus we age very well. There is no ethnicity I rather be.
Bro i couldnt agree with u more. I am 100% chinese and i grew up in the hood with hispanics soninam always loud and defending of myself! Just like anything else in nature, whne u fight back and become a savage yoirself to whoever trying to harm u, they will stop once they realize they cant have power over u! Talking is a good start, but talking about it aint gonna make it stop. Since when talking WIN any war in the history of the world?!?!?! When it comes to this type of thing, fear is better than respect!!!!
The first Asians brought to this country was in the late 1500’s. They were Filipino. 1587-During the Manila-Acapulco Galleon Trade era, the Manila Galleon landed in Morro Bay, California. The landing party included Luzon Indios, indigenous Filipinos, who worked as sailors on board.
There will never be too many Asians. This is offensive to print. We as a nation are so very lucky that multiple Asian countries are represented in America. It is so offensive to print this. The WSJ would never have dared print this about any other group or ethnicity. This really tics me off. I want to learn about the various cultures and histories.
What does “model minority” really mean? In a way it’s good but in another way, it’s means we just do what we are told and don’t cause trouble and not speak up much…
I started reading the WSJ in 1988. It’s always been conservative, but the journalistic quality was very high. It went downhill (dumbed down, shorter, less in-depth) 10-15 years ago, and full blown MAGA in 2015, all from the Murdoch ownership. Now down to this level. I only use it now for following market news, quotes, etc. Read the FT (Financial Times) for high quality journalism, financial and geopolitical coverage. Sadly, I’m not surprised the WSJ would publish this.
The Murdoch empire, a right wing publication company, is known for releasing missing and murdered persons families and friends personal information 😮😮😮 you know. The phone hacking scandal
I’m an immigrant of Korean/Italian ancestry and have honorably served in the US military. I have experienced the indifference and ill will from both Asians and Caucasians throughout my life. However, I always made it a point to beat up any knucklehead who tried to bully/harm me because nobody should be a target or a punching bag at someone’s cost. It does not surprise me that this article is a reflection of our current time and culture in America. It’s a shame that the media gives the appearance that everyone is at odds with each other in some way or another. Let the haters hate and the good triumph through action and love.
I am white. I have alot of appriciation for Asian people. They are polite, clean and smart. We need to learn to live together and respect each other. This is america, everyone has a right to be here, and we dont need to say we have to many.
I am a woman and that is such a large hasty generalization to make. Asian people are very diverse as are all ethnicities- you get good and bad people. My personally experience experience with Asians has been mostly positive. In corporate America, however, I have witnessed the ruthlessness of some of them- mostly Korean women. Every other Asian - male and female- I’ve had mostly positive experiences with.
@@squatchfromearth4076 yup exactly. And pitting Irish against other groups. Getting one group to hate another so they don’t create powerful unions where people get paid decently.
I learned a lot about the "Model Minority" myth, in viewing this channel. Whether you're Black or Asian, at the end of the day both groups want to be respected. As an African-American, I've had people fear me, but not respect me. And although there's an assumption that contemporary Asians aren't "feared" (questionable), I wouldn't call it a desirable attribute.
@@cqtaylor you wrote “Whether you’re Black or Asian” You should’ve wrote “Whether you’re Black or Yellow” Keep the insulting derogatory term consistent
First thing: All Asians who subscribe to WSJ should cancel their subscription. I am sure there are a lot of Asians who invest and read WSJ, probably more than most ethnic groups. So we should vote with our feet and unsubscribe. We need to exercise our power where we have it. There are many sources for investing news and advices that are better than WSJ anyway.
If someone spray painted this in their high schools hallways they’d get suspended or worse and it would be going viral…. And you’re gonna write this in a huge newspaper?
Hey, the only reason there are so many of us is because we are just so awesome at staying alive😂 while the rest of the world is so focused on killing themselves off!
I’m mixed and I lived in China for several years during my teens and 20s. When I returned to (unnamed western country), I had one older white guy (50+, well educated and somewhat left-leaning) at a gathering ask me about my experiences in China. I then talked about how I re-embedded myself in Chinese culture and acquired near-native Chinese proficiency. He then replied: you surely aren’t more like them now, are you? Like being fully Chinese (or Asian for that matter) was a bad thing.
when asians get more involved with politics by coming out to vote more and by having more candidates for elections, that is when asians will be treated with care, plus need more asians with platforms to lead the charge and be vocal and hold these people accountable.
I've been saying it for decades that neither political side recognizes us and both will try to use us when it's convenient for them. We need to start putting our foot down.
Can you profile some AAPI anti-hate organizations so that people can donate or become more involved in fighting against racial profiling, discrimination, and violence? Thanks!
@@aomorzon Exactly. China is about unity. Unfortunately the West has been firing and conquering using narratives and dirty politics to keep people in conflict. Africa wants to be cohesive unit and Chinese unity is inspiring.
I like this channel because it hits a lot of these topics that relate to the asian community and beyond with nuance and ability to see the bigger picture, how it interweaves with other communities and issues. Also it comes from a place of humour and discourse as opposed to a nihilistic viewpoint. I think a lot of forums talking about topics like these become so toxic and im glad this channel stays relatively positive even in the face of overwhelming adversity.
To answer your question..."Handle with Care" will come when the consequences of their actions is greater than the action. To put it plainly, if you touch that hot Asian pot and know its going to burn your ass...no way you're touching it.
We are a small minority that give away our vote freely to one party. That is why we are not "protected" or catered to. Why work for something you've got in your back pockets? We need to make those we vote into office earn our votes. Then we will get more recognition and validation ( not that we need it ) in this country. Stop giving your vote away!
The Ying-Yang shape as a metaphorical representation to me can sum that up. Taking the good with the bad and majoritally if something foreign and negative is being directed at another sum of a structure, if the base of that structure is cultivated to be strong then it was as if one rain-drop helped natural growth occur for a tree to further strengthen and endure any negativity the same size of a single drop of rain. But if a flood occurs then that tree will breath water and then there would be no more need to strengthen a underwater breathing tree with one single drop of rain. The rain will still exist, but will the tree notice that single drop of rain from above touching now a plate of water hiding a sunken tree? Asian culture is real culture, their elders don’t play it then the lot of the family don’t play with it. Entertainment and rude words out of context and meant to insult as a prank don’t mix. How about just stick to what you know and worry less of other peoples culturally shocking languages and customs, I’m sure they’d barely even mind being seen as foreign. They don’t teach being rude as a custom in societies with family morals.
2:29 well said Andrew.Smh. I would say the Asian cultures have a lot of respect. African cultures are similar.🇳🇬. Maybe it's wrong way to look at the culture to be feared. That oped was disrespectful there's no way around that.
@Kami Inochi those are topics to go into detail separately. There is still traditional respect .there is corruption. Parts of Nigeria were involved on slave trade in ancient times,yes. Biafran war happened. All those things didn't change the traditional respect system that the ethnic groups have in Nigeria.
one of the few times i encountered asian hate, i was basically told we (asians) had no value in america. guy got political, so i smiled and said "we physically united the states from east to west; think about it when you take the train next time." always found that a little bit of history and humor gets on their nerves, and racists shut up real quick.
@@Pompom-xy3uu railroads...a lot of the earliest chinese immigrants came looking for gold, and ended up doing hard labour to build the railroad tracks in the USA
It's because they believe Asians don't speak up, and he or she just goes along with the flow. However, you're on to something about immigration because some people I've met in South East Asia and South Asia are pretty outspoken. But it really just depends on the person to be honest. It's not like the U.S. doesn't have some crazy Asian gangs not that it's a good thing for any group to have that.
Honestly, I think you guys need to come back to Asia. I almost migrated to the US during my younger days and boy am I glad I eventually chose not to. You stay here we got your back, we rough the tough times out together. So yeah. Your choice though.
This is why I teach my daughters and son to preference their own because the last thing I'll ever do is complain about insults or start an Asian Feelings Matter initiative. Visayan people have skin of iron and stay getting them scholarships, lol! 🇵🇭 👊
Because that’s not true. But there are lots of Hispanics and one time in California in the 1800s we actually had more Chinese than Mexicans. Nothing wrong with stating that there too many of so and so ethnic groups.
As an Asian that used to live in NYC and left 15 years ago, I think the main problem with alot of Asians in the US, especially men, have been there all their lives so they are blind to all the blatant racism we have to endure. We are a passive race of people, taught at a young age to obedient, desperately want to live in America, and worse of all, unable to unite as an Asian tribe. We have alot of Asian pride out of necessity but deep down we are not united. ALSO, this might be an unpopular take, but we see a high percentage of Asian women dating western dudes and this further empowers them to treat us like this. The primal instinct of man who can dominate another species of women will have this kind of effect. In conclusion, now that I no longer live in that society, I feel a heavy load lifted from my shoulders and there's no way I can see myself going back to being treated like second rate citizens. Unfortunately, this will continue to happen due to our own upbringings, values, lack of unity, and self depricacy in a world full of asshole white people.
I have a question. With all the crime, and in Chicago the murders of several Asian students, why don't more Asian people arm themselves? I see a lot of Asian people talking about admiring the Rooftop Koreans, but that's about it. This really surprises me. It's thier right after all.
We have to admit that our population in West Country is relatively small, not to say we are raised more like to keep ourselves in line, which worked well in Asia but not there.
Why don't Asians take more action? Is it bc many of us are so busy working? Lack of unity? I don't get it. Even something as simple as an email campaign will help Asians in a big way.
I disagree about the cultural export influencing the vast majority of Americans' perception of Asians in the West. As a native Angeleno who's lived in medium to larger non-coastal cities where Asian population is
West Asians are the largest demographic in the United States just like in the UK they associate Asians with being an Indians why is this hard for you people to understand?

Facts
@@artcorbeau what do u mean by ''fancy asian''?🤣
I remember years ago I was watching The Bachelor (they need to cancel that show by the way) and it was when it was very non-diverse. There was one Asian girl on there and one of the other white women said "why would he be interested in her, she's Asian..." she said it so nonchalantly and it was just so gross. No one even said anything about that.
I remember seeing America Top Model clip and there was this Korean girl that said she wanted represent Asians in positive light but trashed Asian men. Tyra and the panel called her out on her bullshit.
As a Khmer- Chinese American army officer, do not accept anyone's microagressions in your presence. Confront them immediately
This 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Its hard to ignore. Lived my life in Kansas before I moved. Dealt with alot of racism. Got into alot of fights because I did not tolerate the white/black kids calling me "ching chong/dog eater etc." After awhile I earned a reputation as someone who didnt put up with any shit. Eventually, more asians moved there and we formed our own little posse and nobody messed with us. We weren't hoodlums, 3 out 4 became physicians and the other one became a geologist. haha
That’s wtf I always do in all european spaces across USA and Canada 😅😅😅
time and place.
Comedian Ronnie Chieng's video talked about it, "We need more Asians in America."
Peace and love to my Asian people, they are some of the best people I know and Asian food, culture is awesome 👍
Pretty sure we're just people. Asian, Black, Aliens. Who gives two fcks. We're not good because our food or culture. We're just good because.........we're fkn human. But I get that you mean well. Much love regardless. :D
Absolutely 💯
Growing up I always noticed how people had no problem picking on me for being Asian. Growing up, I used to hid the fact that I was into anime/K-pop or that I had good grades because my Mexican and Black peers would always pick on me “omg man you’re so Asian” or “all you Asians are the same” stuff like that. Not that I ever would but imagine if I said the same thing to them, I would have got my ass handed to me.
I love Black people, r&b/hip hop and the culture. Naturally I follow The Shade Room. There been times when I peep the comments of a post and SO many people would say the most racist and ignorant things about Asians, those comments would have so many likes. The majority would find it funny or agree with it. That just hurts me and makes me sad because I thought we were past that. Fried chicken and water melon aren’t funny jokes. Neither should eating dog or bat soup jokes. Making fun of other people’s cultural food that they grew up on is so wack. Also calling your nail tech “Ling Ling” is lame af and instead you should respect her by learning her real name.
I just hope in the future, people would show the same care in what they say about Asians like how they treat all the other minority groups.
asian woman react by dating the sickest low life white people to diss theire own asian men
Hate to say this but The Shade Room is notoriously terrible even to the Black community. We're fed up with that group ourselves so it's a live and learn experience on which Black spaces are not only going to be welcoming to other groups but other kinds of Black people as well. Same with how not all Asian podcast groups or channels in general are the friendliest towards Black folks. If you truly (as you put) love Black folks, and I mean us (the people) and not just the mainstream consumable parts of our culture, I urge you deeply to branch out to smaller Black creators cause there are plenty that are Asian friendly unlike the mainstream ones that are considered problematic within even the Black community itself.
@@tednguyen7258 asian and whte women are the same. They're even in protest in Atlanta right now. When everything is fine they side with Americans but when they cry because Americans are being racist to them they go like..ah..I'm asian fight for me my asian people. They need to back off and take accountability that when everything is fine im not asian right now. Specially the asian American they keep saying they are not asian they are American then they expect Asians to fight for them when discriminated.
@@obviouslyme3950 I 100% agree with this comment, TSR is so damn TOXIC! A lot of these Black American blog/news sites are that live for the most ratchet & worst of the Black community but are the same ones that will get upset if you call them out & true the Black community can be very monolithic & binary about how to be Black & really just judge themselves & everyone else according to a stereotype. That's why sometimes I just can't relate with some people.
But all that aside yeah, there are some many positive Black news & entertainment channels that spread positivity & you have Black people who love Anime & Asian culture as well, it's a rising & somewhat common thing nowadays, we exist we're here. That damn mainstream makes it hard to notice unfortunately.
@@FluteCheerios Absolutely agree. Even Black folks have to navigate our own spaces carefully and I certainly do it myself. Sometimes the help out and give money to anything remotely Black attitude can be a detriment because not everything Black owned, made, or including us is for us. Therefore knowing what to support and who's really for collective respect and liberation across the board, is a vital skill to have cause otherwise you end up giving views and money to people who may be skin folk but ain't kin folk.
And yep, Black folks been into anime before it became a thing for celebrities to announce that they were into it themselves. I'm one of those Black folks who grew up (and still is) one of those anime nerds back when it was considered whack to be that. Not to mention there's plenty of Blasian folks out there doing the work that really don't get the support that they should from any side of their heritage so make sure to check up on them as well. Overall cultivate your spaces carefully and watch who you give your viewership and money to.
Sa an African American, I happy to see you finally speak up. Don't let others decide what offends you. You tell them what offends you. After that, the rule should be set. Meaning, once you tell them, there should be no other discussion about it. They should respectfully be more considerate.
Agreed
🙏🏽
Even the two mass shootings everyone was shocked 2 asians committed the crimes, those were horrific crimes but the fact that most of the nation was shocked that we could be capable of something like that makes me see that people dont see us as human beings with problems just like everyone else. They see us as the model citizens who take abuse and still smile and carry on with our day. Esp the older generations they dont complain, dont speak up, dont get involved with social injustice cause its "not our problem"
They gonna learn today the hell with them
That’s because they brought that mindset from their country here. A lot of Asian countries have that mindset.
@@sarawinardi6745 have you ran into Asians that are born here, you make fun of us you're gonna end up in the hospital, I dare you to come make fun of us to our face and not in social media
@@sarawinardi6745 is it a bad mindset?
Are Asians better off shooting each other over cold fries and too much mayo or is it more about not enough duck sauce?
I think the older generation not only sees politics as something from afar but also were the 1st immigrants, which means that they can't defend themselves with words as well as the next gen
Imagine saying this about any ethnic group besides Asian. There would be a public outrage. Why do they hate us? Our kids are educated, our crime rate is nonexistent, we are high income earners and we are hardworking. We as community are too docile. We gotta stand up to this.
Our community doesn't vote, doesn't volunteer for social causes unless it looks good on their resume or college applications. We' re so worried about not rocking the boat.
You think Americans get HYPE over....
Asian kids being educated, and low Asian crime statistics????
Welcome to 🇺🇲
One word. Jealousy,.
Yep... the unlying feeling is that China's population is too big to manage in the near future for resources.
In order to get the resources they need, they are starting to conquer the world.
As you see, China is planning to set up shops in these countries so that you can have access to them.
It's really simple to see.
i would've never thought to frame it the way you did with the title, but daaaamn it caught my eye. being outspoken and speaking the truth! your takes on how general america views asians were super poignant and insightful. glad y'all put this video out 👍
Damn I hella appreciate your voices! I agree w so much of your thoughts!
Should we ask the native Americans if there are too many white people? This is unbelievable, I'm not American myself but I have family living in Cali. I do hope it will still be safe for them.
Excellent point
Decades of turning the other cheek led to this.
Time to stop turning the cheek and back hand the pho, outta these fools
The Fung Brothers hve taken a very important lead for Asians to speak up.Awesome brothers.
I think it's because Asians are an easy target. We're passive and encouraged not to push back. If you look up bullying stats by race, Asians are the most victimized. Also, since the U.S. is in a cold war with China, it makes it seem more acceptable. China is also the most populous country, makes it easier to justify.
I grew up and lived in the US for over 40 years, it all boils down to political value, we Asians, and especially Chinese Americans, do not have any political value because as a group we traditionally do not vote as a block, unlike the blacks, Latinos and the Jews. We also as a group do not protest or speak up.....whereas these other groups will protest at the slightest negative comment towards them.
It's purely historical. These are ethnic groups that have been present in the United States for several generations even though there were Japanese Americans and Chinese-Americans before. You tend to forget the banishment act of Asians and it is thanks to the civil rights struggle that the immigration of non-whites was again authorized.
Thank you guys for calling this out!
As a black American with a Chinese wife I really hate the persistent and openly accepted caricatures of Asian people, and how all stereotypes, including those that are ostensibly “good” inevitably fail to bring the understanding that we all actually need.
Let's be realistic and look from a psychological standpoint from the outside looking in (and these are generalizations).
1) Asians don't talk back
2) Asians don't fight back
3) Asians don't assemble in numbers
4) Asians (when rebuttals are required) aren't well versed in verbal sword-play (because of culture and points #1, 2 and 3 and
5) If you want to feel bigger about yourself...one way is to make the 'lesser' person feel smaller to make yourself appear larger (especially if there's almost 0% risk in any way shape or form).
That said...I'm Asian, but if I was a non-Asian who was a negative person, had insecurity issues and/or was racist or bias...I would 1,000,000% talk shit about Asians almost every day. It's THAT easy. And that's not a good thing.
This is a very good point. Often times Asians are more critical about other Asians than other races. But it's also about spending their entire lives to fit in to white America, and when another Asian doesn't conform, it is a threat to themselves as well.
Its different for me, I won't put up with anywhere. I am very proud to be Asian. We have culture, we honor our family and our elders, plus we age very well. There is no ethnicity I rather be.
@@mvn7328 I agree, I am proud to be Asian too, but I adopt the good traits of both Asian and American cultures, and avoid the bad ones.
We do have too many Hispanics. I don’t see any problem with the title of the article. As an Asian American.
Bro i couldnt agree with u more. I am 100% chinese and i grew up in the hood with hispanics soninam always loud and defending of myself! Just like anything else in nature, whne u fight back and become a savage yoirself to whoever trying to harm u, they will stop once they realize they cant have power over u! Talking is a good start, but talking about it aint gonna make it stop. Since when talking WIN any war in the history of the world?!?!?! When it comes to this type of thing, fear is better than respect!!!!
The first Asians brought to this country was in the late 1500’s. They were Filipino.
1587-During the Manila-Acapulco Galleon Trade era, the Manila Galleon landed in Morro Bay, California. The landing party included Luzon Indios, indigenous Filipinos, who worked as sailors on board.
There will never be too many Asians. This is offensive to print. We as a nation are so very lucky that multiple Asian countries are represented in America. It is so offensive to print this. The WSJ would never have dared print this about any other group or ethnicity. This really tics me off. I want to learn about the various cultures and histories.

What does “model minority” really mean? In a way it’s good but in another way, it’s means we just do what we are told and don’t cause trouble and not speak up much…
I started reading the WSJ in 1988. It’s always been conservative, but the journalistic quality was very high. It went downhill (dumbed down, shorter, less in-depth) 10-15 years ago, and full blown MAGA in 2015, all from the Murdoch ownership. Now down to this level. I only use it now for following market news, quotes, etc. Read the FT (Financial Times) for high quality journalism, financial and geopolitical coverage. Sadly, I’m not surprised the WSJ would publish this.
The Murdoch empire, a right wing publication company, is known for releasing missing and murdered persons families and friends personal information 😮😮😮 you know. The phone hacking scandal
When we are angry, they think we're cute or out of character and too sensitive. They think we are anime.
I'm native american, and west is my land, whites took it tho:(
I’m an immigrant of Korean/Italian ancestry and have honorably served in the US military. I have experienced the indifference and ill will from both Asians and Caucasians throughout my life. However, I always made it a point to beat up any knucklehead who tried to bully/harm me because nobody should be a target or a punching bag at someone’s cost. It does not surprise me that this article is a reflection of our current time and culture in America. It’s a shame that the media gives the appearance that everyone is at odds with each other in some way or another. Let the haters hate and the good triumph through action and love.
Good for you!,
As a black man, how in the hell did I end up here?😂

I am white. I have alot of appriciation for Asian people. They are polite, clean and smart. We need to learn to live together and respect each other. This is america, everyone has a right to be here, and we dont need to say we have to many.
Facts
I am a woman and that is such a large hasty generalization to make. Asian people are very diverse as are all ethnicities- you get good and bad people. My personally experience experience with Asians has been mostly positive. In corporate America, however, I have witnessed the ruthlessness of some of them- mostly Korean women. Every other Asian - male and female- I’ve had mostly positive experiences with.
It’s just another form of hate. We used to say “too many Jews”, “too many Italians”. Different group, same crap.

I learned a lot about the "Model Minority" myth, in viewing this channel. Whether you're Black or Asian, at the end of the day both groups want to be respected. As an African-American, I've had people fear me, but not respect me. And although there's an assumption that contemporary Asians aren't "feared" (questionable), I wouldn't call it a desirable attribute.
Don’t you mean Black or Yellow?

First thing: All Asians who subscribe to WSJ should cancel their subscription. I am sure there are a lot of Asians who invest and read WSJ, probably more than most ethnic groups. So we should vote with our feet and unsubscribe. We need to exercise our power where we have it. There are many sources for investing news and advices that are better than WSJ anyway.
10:02 you said a mouthful sir 💯,

Hey, the only reason there are so many of us is because we are just so awesome at staying alive😂 while the rest of the world is so focused on killing themselves off!
Yes, awesome is correct, i'm native american
I’m mixed and I lived in China for several years during my teens and 20s. When I returned to (unnamed western country), I had one older white guy (50+, well educated and somewhat left-leaning) at a gathering ask me about my experiences in China. I then talked about how I re-embedded myself in Chinese culture and acquired near-native Chinese proficiency. He then replied: you surely aren’t more like them now, are you? Like being fully Chinese (or Asian for that matter) was a bad thing.
when asians get more involved with politics by coming out to vote more and by having more candidates for elections, that is when asians will be treated with care, plus need more asians with platforms to lead the charge and be vocal and hold these people accountable.
I've been saying it for decades that neither political side recognizes us and both will try to use us when it's convenient for them. We need to start putting our foot down.
Asians need to speak out and vote.
What the actual fuck... Whoever wrote that headline for the WSJ should be fired.
I think its hard to comment on this Asian Hate thing when even majority of Asians cant get along especially people hating anything on China.
Can you profile some AAPI anti-hate organizations so that people can donate or become more involved in fighting against racial profiling, discrimination, and violence? Thanks!
Don't focus on the negative. South Africa is hosting China and Russia military drills. Africans love Asians

@@aomorzon i can't tell if that's sarcasm
I like this channel because it hits a lot of these topics that relate to the asian community and beyond with nuance and ability to see the bigger picture, how it interweaves with other communities and issues. Also it comes from a place of humour and discourse as opposed to a nihilistic viewpoint. I think a lot of forums talking about topics like these become so toxic and im glad this channel stays relatively positive even in the face of overwhelming adversity.
To answer your question..."Handle with Care" will come when the consequences of their actions is greater than the action.
To put it plainly, if you touch that hot Asian pot and know its going to burn your ass...no way you're touching it.
We are a small minority that give away our vote freely to one party. That is why we are not "protected" or catered to. Why work for something you've got in your back pockets? We need to make those we vote into office earn our votes. Then we will get more recognition and validation ( not that we need it ) in this country. Stop giving your vote away!
We’re lucky that we’re here!!!
The Ying-Yang shape as a metaphorical representation to me can sum that up. Taking the good with the bad and majoritally if something foreign and negative is being directed at another sum of a structure, if the base of that structure is cultivated to be strong then it was as if one rain-drop helped natural growth occur for a tree to further strengthen and endure any negativity the same size of a single drop of rain. But if a flood occurs then that tree will breath water and then there would be no more need to strengthen a underwater breathing tree with one single drop of rain. The rain will still exist, but will the tree notice that single drop of rain from above touching now a plate of water hiding a sunken tree? Asian culture is real culture, their elders don’t play it then the lot of the family don’t play with it. Entertainment and rude words out of context and meant to insult as a prank don’t mix. How about just stick to what you know and worry less of other peoples culturally shocking languages and customs, I’m sure they’d barely even mind being seen as foreign. They don’t teach being rude as a custom in societies with family morals.
As Chris Rock says: “ITS THE MEDIA.”

It's because they believe Asians don't speak up, and he or she just goes along with the flow. However, you're on to something about immigration because some people I've met in South East Asia and South Asia are pretty outspoken. But it really just depends on the person to be honest. It's not like the U.S. doesn't have some crazy Asian gangs not that it's a good thing for any group to have that.
Honestly, I think you guys need to come back to Asia. I almost migrated to the US during my younger days and boy am I glad I eventually chose not to. You stay here we got your back, we rough the tough times out together. So yeah. Your choice though.

Can you imagine if the article was "Are there too many Blacks?"
Because that’s not true. But there are lots of Hispanics and one time in California in the 1800s we actually had more Chinese than Mexicans. Nothing wrong with stating that there too many of so and so ethnic groups.
As an Asian that used to live in NYC and left 15 years ago, I think the main problem with alot of Asians in the US, especially men, have been there all their lives so they are blind to all the blatant racism we have to endure. We are a passive race of people, taught at a young age to obedient, desperately want to live in America, and worse of all, unable to unite as an Asian tribe. We have alot of Asian pride out of necessity but deep down we are not united. ALSO, this might be an unpopular take, but we see a high percentage of Asian women dating western dudes and this further empowers them to treat us like this. The primal instinct of man who can dominate another species of women will have this kind of effect.
In conclusion, now that I no longer live in that society, I feel a heavy load lifted from my shoulders and there's no way I can see myself going back to being treated like second rate citizens. Unfortunately, this will continue to happen due to our own upbringings, values, lack of unity, and self depricacy in a world full of asshole white people.
I have a question. With all the crime, and in Chicago the murders of several Asian students, why don't more Asian people arm themselves? I see a lot of Asian people talking about admiring the Rooftop Koreans, but that's about it.
This really surprises me. It's thier right after all.
Too many of us are too interested in making money to care about politics until it is later in life.

We have to admit that our population in West Country is relatively small, not to say we are raised more like to keep ourselves in line, which worked well in Asia but not there.
Why don't Asians take more action?
Is it bc many of us are so busy working? Lack of unity?
I don't get it. Even something as simple as an email campaign will help Asians in a big way.

You gotta go back a whole 31 years for the last time Asians did not put up with Black Men committing violent crimes in their community with The Roof Top Armed To The Teeth Koreans. You do not see that shit in The 21st Century.
@@josephimperatrice5552 Yakuza and Triads? Bruh I know you must not have grown up around ghetto Asians cause I remember when Cambo, Hmong, Lao, and Viet gangs did their shit during the 90's, 2000's and even into the 2010's.
FOH with your shit cause, if you ARE Asian, you probably one of those square bear dudes who let people disrespect you when you were younger cause you were too scared to back your play. I know plenty of Brothers who get down and ride for Asian folks so don't throw their whole race under the bus cause you were too pussy to stand up for yourself.
@xoloming
Ain't none of those Southeast Asian gangs you mentioned doing shit about the Black guys who enter Asian communities to commit the knock out game on them or rob Asian businesses at gunpoint. Black guys would never terrorize the Latino Cholo Barrios the way they terrorize Asian communities because the Cholos like Nortenos, Surenos, MS-13, Mexican Mafia would put a bullet in their motherfucking heads. The Cholos are even running the Brothas out of Compton. Every 10 years during the census Compton is becoming a lot more Cholo and a lot less Black. The Cholos are taking over Black communities in South Los Angeles like the alpha males that they are!
@@josephimperatrice5552 bro you definitely did not grow up in the ghetto cause SEA'S is doing that now and have been doing that against Latinos and Blacks you just don't see it cause it ain't on the news or in your neighborhood. Folks like you are just feeling it now cause its more out there on the media now and its affecting the more affluent Asian communities in the States. Thats why you're pushing the whole Asian vs Black thing.
Another reason I know you don't get the street race war thing is because you clearly didn't live in places like Long Beach during the 90's and 2000's when the Mexicans were trying to drive out the Asians and Blacks by shooting at us because of our race (the same thing you're giving them props for in Compton).
You're giving props to dudes who are literally writing NK on the walls and acting like those same cholos didn't and wouldn't do the same to Asian people. You wanna be like that then go kick it with the Hoteps or the KKK cause they push that racial cleansing line too.
If we have any Brandon Tsay fan Mail, where should we send to? I need to talk to him.
With all more and more limited resources, guess which group could be squeezed harder and harder?
Yes we asians are not taken seriously and this is coming from conservative journals. So all the conservative asians need to wake up and let them hear our voices.
Becauae most Asiams knows what reapect is.😍
