Asian Americans are the only POC I know of that actually become LESS woke after getting into Social Justice.

Y’all want to blame AM for their emasculation, and completely ignore the history of the Page Act, forced sterilization in California, and Chinese bachelor societies.pic.twitter.com/HJET9Br4tv

Y’all want to protect WMAF and deflect all criticism of Asian women that go along with it, and completely obliterate the history of War Brides, the rape of Asian women abroad as SOP, and how our civil rights organizations actively promote it as a path to assimilation.pic.twitter.com/MtCXPUDGXO

Y’all want to tell Asian Americans that we possess some mythical “Asian privilege” when research continues to show persistent barriers to equality, chronic underemployment, and that successive AsAm generations experience DOWNWARD mobility due to structural racism.pic.twitter.com/s7keD2Ghu3

Y’all want to tell Asian Americans that the racism we face is “not that bad,” ignoring the violent ethnic cleansing of our community, ongoing hate crimes, and racism so severe growing up that the Department of Justice had to intervene and Obama had to establish a WH initiative.pic.twitter.com/RKA1F4k7V4

Y’all can’t even talk about Chinese Exclusion and Japanese internment, two of the only major anti-Asian incidents that are taught in American schools, in an intelligent manner and how those laws and practices were passed in 4 majority Anglo countries SIMULTANEOUSLY!

To sum it up: my assessment of the Asian American social justice scene as an Asian man is that it’s wack af and does not at all fulfill its function of education, organization, and protection. Its politics are toothless, bc y’all “bought in” to the idea of model minority

Y’all really do believe that shit. Y’all really believe we have it “better”, which says more about YOU than Asians. And that’s why you’re not fit to lead us. If you don’t take my oppression and the violation of my human rights seriously, get lost.https://twitter.com/AlbertHur888/status/971079427420401664?s=20 …
Let me guess the outcome: nothing. These people see human rights as nothing but a geopolitical fig leaf

So all you Asian social justice activists claiming to “fight white supremacy”? All your efforts have done is lead to this:pic.twitter.com/uTTbo9XsQO

You turned the most radical force against European colonialism on Earth into fucking lapdogs for white people, and you dare to blame “Asianness” for it!

Y’all have demonstrated abject failure. Whether that failure rests in a failure to engage, motivate, or inspire (or my personal hypothesis: lead by example) you have fucked up. Royally. These results are abysmal.

How about trying things differently. How about you actually take anti-Asian racism, in all its multitudinous, nefarious facets and forms, seriously. How about you stop apologizing for our oppression, and start fighting for our rights. How about THAT?
