Yet another media piece we can safely put in the rapidly growing pile of material designed to drive a wedge between White people and Asian people.

You have to understand that this is a deliberate attempt to push Asian people who actually have successfully established themselves and their families in the West into taking part in this new Woke Mob. These articles do nothing to actually address the issues Asian people face here, which are often minimized away by people across the spectrum as simply being 'microaggressions'. The goal is purely to create anti-White sentiment amongst 2nd and 3rd generation children of Asian immigrants who are growing up more privileged than their parents and are in a prime position to be fodder for this movement.

Reject this. The fact that people of Asian descent have succeeded so well even _despite_ the fading vestiges of racism that persist in the West is a very, very unfortunate truth that many seek to bury. It's a problematic fact, because it shows that in reality, work ethic and intelligence have far more to do with success than prejudice does, at least within the last sixty years. The only way to bury this reality is to blow every possible incident out of proportion and drive a rhetorical wedge in between the races, for divide-and-conquer purposes.

There are valid racial issues that need to be aired out and addressed between White and Asian people, issues that can and are being solved generationally; all of this effort will be thrown out if Asian people give in to the media's push to skew everyone possible toward an anti-White style of rhetoric.
