Post by Kalinago »

Especially the ugly ass females?

I mean Chinese and Japanese and koreans etc

I can't stand them.

If you're not Chinese or Gringo they act like you're some space alien from Saturn,or their slave.

Then they whine with #StopAsianHate,when the reason blacks and Hispanics and even Indians and Arabians hate them is because they are robotically racist insentient passive agressive cowardly pieces of Shit.

I at one point used to support China and The 'Asian Masculinity'and such nonsense out of sympathy,until Dealing with all of them gave me a breaking point,and Now I wish for enslavement of the Chinese people by the USA and NATO.

With Indians,if you are not a muslim they don't have a issue with you at all.they also have more humour and basic humanity.

Even Jews are not like this in real life.

I get along with EVERYONE IRL except East Asians.

Blacks don't even like blacks and kill them just for the hell out of it, so what the hell are you talking about? And Arabs beat on their own women even if they look at them a certain way lol so how does that make them better than Asians?
And Latinos call blacks niggers all the time. The thing is blacks aren't going to just screw with Latinos like they mess with Asians because Latinos will fight back. Blacks pick fights with people they feel are timid and scared of them. Besides blacks call everything racist nowadays the same way LBGTQ clowns are always calling everything trans/homophobic. I've had more issues with other blacks than I have had with any other race in the U.S. and the only time they even care about something happening to another black person is when they can turn it into a political issue so they can have an excuse to blame all white people and then turn them on each other.

The problem is nigs want everybody to kiss their ass and suck up to them, and when they don't they call people racist yet the dumb f***s can't even get along with their own people. The two racial groups that have the most conflict with each other in the U.S. is Latinos and Blacks or blacks on blacks.
Asians are hardly a big part of the population. But there are neighborhoods occupied by Latinos that blacks aren't even welcomed into and when all that Rodney King shit happened, Blacks were outright attacking Koreans for no reason, hell in 2020 they were even attacking black own businesses, that right there goes to show you that black people are garbage and just think the world should tolerate everything they do because of their skin color and some BS that none of them even experienced that happened 400+ years ago and feel that it gives them a free pass to show out and call racist when they don't get things their way and that's literately EVERY where they go they pull that "racist" card. The only time I ever got discriminated against by Asians was during a job I applied for and they owned this hotel, but everyone except for a large portion of white people do that in the U.S including Hispanics, Indians, Muslims, and that's openly discriminate against people who aren't their own since they prefer to hire only their own in the workplace and ignore all that diversity bullshit self defeating white people are so damn obsessed with. Hispanics aren't going to change their language just to accommodate English speaking people but white people will try to force you to learn Spanish because they are traitorous assholes that got it all backwards.

But look what the nigs did in South Africa when they wanted the white people to leave. They outright murdered them. Nobody in the U.S. is murdering black people at record high numbers other than other black people themselves and the Latinos they engage with through gang violence. I mean hell I won't even socialize with black people either other than the ones I've known since I was a child and family members. But out there on the street? f**k em they don't even exist to me. Too much crap history with them for me to even care anymore about them. We live in a world where blacks are always fussing about how racist everyone else is but at the same time we still treat each other like enemies. You have any idea how many times a black male tried to find an excuse to have a confrontation?

Any country where they have more rights over the people that let them move in and take over they generally do whatever the hell they want to do. That's why gang rapes were so out of control when Africans and Muslim mfers flooded into Europe and European govs made it unlawful for people to complain about the problems to prove "we aren't racist but feel free to keep gang raping our women and kids." Although the women advocating for invaders to move in deserve the rape for being backstabbing idiots against their own. Nigs have never done shit for anybody, they can bring up MLK all they want but one man shown preaching the same old tired shit every time it's Black History Month gets f*ckin old.

I am Asian and I hate other Asians except the Japanese and the Filipinos. At least both of them are nice and keep it to themselves.
The rest of them are narrow minded a$$sholes. You have to remember that Asians are very cliquish and usually hang out with themselves instead of people from other races. Also Winston Wu told me most Asians only care about "Food and Money" and nothing else. Making them insensitive a$$holes.

And all that BS talk about Confucius, yin and yang, and spirituality are bunch of cr@p and bunch of smokes and mirrors. All Asians care about is food and money like pack of ghouls and they are ready to backstab and cannibalize each other just to earn an extra buck.

Well, everything is relative. If your not a native born Asian, you will never know. That's what I have experienced so far.
Asians maybe more lenient towards white foreigners but they are vicious towards each other and to the race they deemed "inferior" to them.
I am sorry, that's the truth whether you like it or not.

Yes, Asians are more lenient towards White foreigners. I lived in Japan in the early 2010s and that was exactly what I experienced. White foreigners who live in Japan are exempt from the strict rules and minutiae of Japanese social etiquette. They are simply not held to the same standards as Japanese and other Asian people and therefore enjoy certain privileges and freedoms within Japanese society.

I don't hate East Asians but I don't particularly like them either. East Asians are perhaps the race with which I resonate the least. They just have a really alien vibe and strike me as cold, robotic and even NPC-like. They're the exact opposite of Mediterranean and Latin people with their passionate and soulful nature and their vivacious and free-spirited societies. I find it extremely difficult to relate to East Asian people and especially the Japanese. It's as though there's just no feeling between us and the interaction goes nowhere. I prefer most other races.

There are of course exceptions. I really get along with my Chinese acupuncturist Dr. Chen who's really awesome and with whom I have deep and intellectually stimulating conversations. We've even had conversations about the New World Order and the Jews!

As for the different Asian nationalities, I actually prefer the Chinese over the Japanese, even though this is certainly a minority opinion. Even though the Chinese have a reputation for being greedy and unscrupulous (and @MarcosZeitola believes that they are complete savages), they have a much more direct communication style and are easier to talk to while the Japanese have an indirect communication style and are usually totally fake since fakeness is baked into their social culture with the concept of honne and tatemae 本音建前. I also have admiration for certain aspects of ancient Chinese culture such as Qi Kung and Traditional Chinese Medicine. And, of course, hanzi 漢字 too which have their origin in China.

I tend to like Southeast Asians a lot more than East Asians. Southeast Asians are a completely different entity. They are more warm-blooded and passionate and more like Latinos in some regards. I have a positive view of Thais, Filipinos and Vietnamese.

The Chinese are cutthroat capitalists, ruthless Machiavellian fuckers... but then again, so are plenty of others. I'd say the Chinese are akin to the Jews of Asia. You decide whether this is a plus, or a minus. But that's what they are. Hence their position of power in Indonesia, the Philippines; Chinese folks run the show. Just like Jews run the West. If you think the Jews are bad, @Lucas88 just remember; the Chinese are their yellow cousins. ;)
I've heard people call the Chinese "the Jews of Asia" but I don't think that this label is appropriate. Sure, the Chinese have strong ingroup favoritism and are good at business and are often able to dominate the business world in the foreign lands where they settle, but unlike the actual Jews, the Chinese don't seek to subvert the host society nor do they possess bizarre religious and esoteric traditions like the Kabbalah that teach that all Gentiles are evil souls that originate from the chaos of the Sitra Achra and must therefore be destroyed or enslaved in a future Messianic age.

In reality, the Chinese are nothing like the Jews. The Jews are a group like no other. They are utterly perverse and twisted and the bringers and orchestrators of all kinds of cultural rot and ruination. The Jews are the mortal enemies of all Gentile races and should be expelled from any sane society.

The similarities are legion. Both groups are intensely clique-ish, and insanely materialistic. When they attain high positions in various countries, they harm institutions and their host countries. For instance in the Philippines there are "Chinese only" restaurants. Like they literally open establishments in other countries that actively bar the locals from dining there:

https://interaksyon.philstar.com/celebr ... lishments/

I mean Lucas I know you're fond of martial arts and all that jazz, and I myself am fond of that as well, fond of the food, too. But Chinese folks in the Philippines and Indonesia operate very similarly to how Jews operate in the West. There's not much of a point in denying this; it's true.
Oh okay, I don't have as much experience of overseas Chinese people as you do since I've never been to Southeast Asia, so I take interest in your points and am open to learning more. I understand that they are intensely cliquish and materialistic.

However, I still don't believe that they could ever be as bad as the Jews are in the West. Are the Chinese infiltrating the media and academia and promoting LGBT, identity politics and child transgenderism? Do they practice weird religions that teach that entire nations must be brought to ruin for the fulfillment of ancient prophecies and the arrival of their Messiah? Jews are simply perverse and dangerous on an entirely different level!

The Jews and the Chinese are the worst in my opinion.
Don't get me wrong, I met some really nice Chinese and Jewish people. Individually some of the Jews and Chinese are all right.
But certain groups such as the Khazarian Jews use social engineering and perverse ideologies to subvert and control western governments and the Chinese Government use their money and population to swallow and take over the host countries.

You are talking about the behavior of American women.

This comment sounds to me that it is only about Asian-Americans, and not about Asian people who are living in Asia in their own countries.

A Japanese, Chinese, Korean etc. who is born in USA and living next door to you in the States is nothing else or nothing better than any American woman. Many of them lost their identity, can often barely speak any Asian language, and understand only English etc.

These American Asian are not the same people you meet in Asia.

Indeed Korean Americans and Koreans are different culturally but both groups tends to be cliquish and close minded.
Still Korean Americans tends to be "chill" or laidback and act more civil than their Korean counterparts.
In contrast, Koreans from Korea are more cunning, aggressive, fashion conscious, appearance conscious, and more impatient then their K-American brethren. Both groups are like oil and water and they don't really mix together as good. I have seen personally at a church retreat, both groups separate themselves in different rooms at the dorm.

I don't know about the dichotomy between ABC(American born Chinese) vs Native Chinese.. I can imagine the same phenomenon as the Koreans.
I never encountered any Japanese American at all...

Overall.. No matter where they came from, Asians tend to stick by themselves, close minded and cliquish. And like Winston said.. Asians only care about material possessions and money... Their talk about spirituality is bunch of bullcr@ap. I know, I been to Korean church and all the pastor care is about getting the money, getting donation by credit cards, and getting money to build their new church building, etc. Money Money Money.
Worshipping god is empty platitude.

This is true, but the word 'race' is misleading. The better word to use is ethnicity.

In countries like Japan and Korea, if you are of 'white race' like myself from Europe, there is no problem and no way to mistaken me for an Asian, I am simply said, totally different from them, even living in that region since more than 4 decades.

As I always had a good job and income and could also communicate with people living next to me, I very rarely (but cannot say 'never') noticed discrimination or rejection, not in Japan, not in Korea, not in Thailand or Philippines etc.

This feeling is quite different among Asians themselves, for example the relationship between Japanese and Koreans, or Malay and Chinese, Vietnamese and Cambodians and Thai etc.

The impression of Western visitors from abroad that 'all Asians are so nice etc.' is indeed wrong. Asian people can be very rude, intolerant and aggressive within their family and other people of their own ethnicity. They can become violent and hateful against other people of different ethnicity.

It is because they have nothing in common - we have to consider their history (wars among them), different languages (have to communicate in English) and different religion, minorities etc. also play a major role.

Japanese and Koreans are a good example, they look so similar to each other that it is impossible to say by looking at them who is a Japanese and who is a Korean, but if you look at their way of life (traditional housing, clothes, food etc) and hear them talking and see their behavior, you will quickly understand that these two groups are of different ethnicity.

It is true that Japanese and Korean language have much in common - but if a Japanese and a Korean meet without any knowledge of the other language, they cannot communicate to each other.

I notice that myself, too, my Japanese is quite good, but so far I failed to speak Korean, of course it is because I am not using the language frequently, no exercise at all and when I try to speak and read Korean, I mix up Japanese and Korean vocabulary - both languages are similar, but not so similar either...and using a different way how to write too.

Yes, If your white male in East Asia, you will have a much easier life then your native friends. Much easier. I guess that's why I see bunch of white people praticing Eastern spirituality, Buddhism like David Carradine and some sh*t.. East Asians don't really practice much spirituality at all for real. Even if you have visited churches and temples in Korea, all those motherf*ckers care is about money! Money Money Money! Spirituality is just a show.

Koreans are especially vicious, judgmental, and unforgiving towards each other. That's why even Koreans in K-town say "Don't trust them other Koreans over there because they are going to scam you." If your a native Korean living in Korea, you better have lot of money, be a good fighter (both physically and mentally), be very cunning, and be 6ft tall. A life of a native Korean is constant grinding and grueling competition from birth to death. Starting to kindergarten to the day that you hit six feet under. It's a very grim and deadly proposition if your born in S.Korea.
Koreans treat other Koreans like sh*t but the South East Asians are treated much worst, no less than dogs.

Well I am glad your doing well in Japan.
Yes, I agree.. white people gets leniency and breaks from most of the cultural expectations in Japan and South Korea. I think because white people from a western country are automatically or unconsciously associated with power, status, fascination, and prestige(I am not really sure what constitutes prestige). White people are well treated in Korea and is considered honored guests. They get a spot light in Korean Media and more they proclaim they love South Korea, the more Korean audience literally gets some kind of emotional orgasm from it.

But it gets really "darker" when your from Africa or South East Asia. Both of them are treated really badly in South Korea.
I don't know about Japan's treatment towards both ethnicities.. but it's very brutal for them. That's why Africans have to lie that he is "African-American" so he doesn't get discriminated in Korea. South East Asians have to lie that he is from Taiwan or an American of Filipino descent just to get a private English tutoring job in Korea. Korean women won't hire Filipinos.

I don't know how Koreans treat middle easterners, Southern Europeans, Indians, Latin Americans, etc because most of them don't even come to Korea. Overall, if you have light skin, blond hair and blue eyes your fine. If you have black skin or look like South East Asian then your in trouble.

Generally Koreans doesn't like the Japanese and the Korean youtubers and media always plays on Korean Nationalism on Japan not doing well and suffering the "lost 3 decades". However, lots of Koreans tends to visit Japan as tourists and there are lot of Koreans moving to Japan to work in IT jobs and others...

Koreans have mixed feelings and general distaste towards the Chinese, always calling them "JJangGae" 짱깨 or "Chink" in English.
Chinese people are viewed as vermin and dirty bastards in Korea. However, many Koreans visit China for tourism and many of the Korean Conglomerates factories are in China..

I am not sure how Koreans think about Vietnamese, Malays, Cambodians, Thai, etc. But I have heard and read that Koreans hate and discriminate Filipinos very much for some reason.. I don't understand why..

I mean even Koreans discriminate each other.
Koreans discriminate Korean Americans , ethnic Koreans from China and even recently escaped North Koreans.
I can only give you a brief generalizations

Koreans think Korean Americans are not Korean enough and they are bunch of black haired foreigners who can't speak their language.
Korean Americans are sometimes treated badly in Korea for not speaking korean.

Now the ethnic Koreans from China are called Joseon-jok "조선족" meaning "Joseon Tribe". They are much more discriminated than the Korean Americans. They are considered shady, untrustworthy and not really Korean, but as a Chinese. The Joseon jok are always looked down upon and regarded as no good criminals.

The North Koreans from Korea are not as well treated because of their northern accent of Korean and their association in the North. They face
lot of loneliness, hardship and ridicule from Korean society. They have to work really hard to integrate themselves and get rid of everything they have learned in North Korea.
