Omg that gif

 

[LuchaShaq]

Didn't that Taeyeon person in SNSD also say that Alicia Keys, "for a black person, she is pretty."?

In their defense there is a 100% difference between thinking a race is subhuman and not being attracted to their genetic features.

I'm mostly Greek, but I find incredibly pale people almost always unattractive outside a few red heads. This make me racist?

It's amusing how some people in this thread are more concerned with clarifying this woman's assocation with SNSD rather than addressing the content/vitriol of her tweets.

People should definitely be more worried about a thread title spreading a lie than about some idiot's irrelevant racists opinions, yeah.

 

[commedieu]

They accept the Japanese and make exceptions with some other (pale) Asians from time to time. The negro scourge is obviously a much more pressing issue.

Yea to make an omelet you have to accept a few non-superior beings from time to time. Well, at least they are dedicated to a cause..

If you liked someone, and planned on continuing to like them, would you want people saying/thinking...

throwing out all my snsd discs straight in the fucking trash

anyone who likes these bigots must be pretty racist themselves

...when there wasn't a shred of truth in it?

 

[Buckethead]

Who?

 

[Fari]

That's amazing.

 

[Invisible_Insane]

If this thread goes on for several pages, there's inevitably going to be someone who's like "oh yeah, well Asians are ______". And maybe not even here on GAF, but just someone reading this.

People get heated.

I guess. It just seems to me like at this point we should stop being surprised that people are capable of believing exceedingly dumb shit.

Between ESPN, Mayweather, and now this; its like nobody knows how to deal with Jeremy Lin's sudden success.

Well, what is there really to discuss about it? Its the racist ramblings of some nobody that wouldn't even be noticed if she didn't have some connection to SNSD.And those pictures she posted on her blog, its like sub-Stormfront levels of racist humor.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Racist cat is my new favourite GIF.

...when there wasn't a shred of truth in it?

hahaha you replied seriously to jenga.

 

[Salvadora]

Is there racism against white people in Asia?

i had a dude in one of my classes like 2 weeks ago that said this same shit

is your name Christopher

 

[ezekial45]

What does this have to do with SNSD?

She wrote a song for them. Therefore she is a part of SNSD

 

[ryan-ts]

It's amusing how some people in this thread are more concerned with clarifying this woman's assocation with SNSD rather than addressing the content/vitriol of her tweets.

Unless she was hacked, if you read those tweets I think it's safe to say she's a bigot and an embarrassment to the entire human race. I don't really think there's much more to discuss. I certainly don't want someone like that being called a member of SNSD when she's not.

I believe that shit happened on the first page.

It is really weird how much tension came to light because of a few basketball games. I tend to want to believe everyone is smarter than this.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Is there racism against white people in Asia?

My experience of racism in Asia as a white guy has mostly been cultural, that is to say that people make fun of me and sometimes distrust me because of assumptions about my culture. It's doesn't have so much of a eugenics angle as the stuff this moron is saying.

 

[Broder Salsa]

With a talent as big as hers I can look through flaws and appreciate her art, even if she is insane.

Oh wait.

 

[jett]

come on, that's not real

is it?

 

[vas_a_morir]

Here is the racist cat video. AMAZING.

 

[freenudemacusers]

"Jeremy Lin is a good player but all the hype is because he’s Asian. Black players do what he does every night and don’t get the same praise."

I thought he said something about a yellow dude serving sushi to kobe and co. or was that fake?

 

[LuchaShaq]

i had a dude in one of my classes like 2 weeks ago that said this same shit

Nope, honestly not sure why I feel that way though. Super thin and super pale are my two "OH GOD DO NOT WANT" signals when it comes to women besides the 1-5% that beat the odds.

My old roommate who was half russian half black never was attracted to black women /shrug.

 

[Dresden]

"Korea" starts with a K.

The KKK has three K's in it.

Coincidence? Or should I saw . . . koinkidenke?

 

[Shogmaster]

I have noticed in my 15 years in LA that Koreans here are super racist, more so than usual. LA Koreans are much less progressive in that regard than Koreans in Cincinnati where I grew up, which seems backwards of expectations. Maybe it's because in LA, you don't have to interact with anyone other than Koreans and still live your day to day in this city.

 

[Slayven]

Haha considering how much Asian pop rips off black culture she should be black people's best friend for providing her with content.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Here is the racist cat video. AMAZING.

You are truly a king among men.

Thank you.

A lot of LA Koreans are not fans of black people due to the LA riots when their businesses were wrecked.

Already discussed.

Looking at the twitter I doubt it.

https://twitter.com/#!/jennyhyun

Not verified and only 400 followers? Meh.

 

[horsebird]

Edit: Well, I'm an idiot. I didn't know there was a blog, and I shouldn't have assumed she was a native Korean.

It's true that just about all Oriental Asians have low opinions of black people.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Looking at the twitter I doubt it.

https://twitter.com/#!/jennyhyun

Not verified and only 400 followers? Meh.

then what about the stuff on her blog/site?

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

No, that's not real. There is no way in hell that she has such a strong grasp of the English language.

Uh oh.

all Oriental Asians have low opinions of black people.

 

[filler]

Already discussed.

lol, you think people on GAF actually bother to read? From the OP forward, this thread proves otherwise.

 

[Dresden]

No, that's not real. There is no way in hell that she has such a strong grasp of the English language.

Probably grew up in America.

 

[freenudemacusers]

Well thanks to this thread I've learned about the history of zionists and jews in china

lol

 

[docbon]

also

ah yes it is all so clear now

niger is made of chicken

 

[Big One]

Is this even real? I mean fake accounts are always made...oh wait, her blog. Nevermind. Seriously this shit is just embarrassing.

 

[commedieu]

then what about the stuff on her blog/site?

Biggest effort/scam for the weirdest/mundane pay off ever possibly?

1. Hack account(s) Setup fake website.
2. Ruin her non-existent career?
3. ???
4. Profit.

 

[TheKaeptain]

No, that's not real. There is no way in hell that she has such a strong grasp of the English language.

She's Asian-American. Also, do you think people not in English speaking countries can't write proper English?

 

[DSN2K]

foolish really, talk about ending your career early on a whim.

 

[wonzo]

What a racist piece of shit. OP should have included the screencap of her tweets advocating genocide.

 

[commedieu]

No, that's not real. There is no way in hell that she has such a strong grasp of the English language. However, it's true that just about all Oriental Asians have low opinions of black people.

Man, what year are you from?

 

[hamchan]

Don't know how this could be real because I don't know how anyone could be dumb enough to tweet this. Hacked accounts maybe?

 

[maquiladora]

Looking at the twitter I doubt it.

https://twitter.com/#!/jennyhyun

Not verified and only 400 followers? Meh.

You are forgetting the racist stuff posted on her blog at the same time.

 

[EYEL1NER]

you really have to work hard to make yourself look worse than floyd

congrats

Exactly what I thought.
I saw 'racist' and Floyd's name and thought the details were mixed up.
But nope...

Man, what year are you from?

Huh? What are you getting at?

 

[akira28]

I really always thought that blacks and Koreans had some kind of parity or comity. At least in my experiences and social interactions and observations. I mean, I know about the whole being followed around in the small Korean shop thing, but I didn't know there was all that underlying anger.

 

[Lebron]

Did she fuck some black guy and believed when he said he'd call? I only suggest because I've had a girl go HAM racist on me like that before because of that, and oddly enough she was Asian too. Connection? Aliens? Boa Kwon?

Just seems extremely weird with that little followers. Oh well, guess it is real, crazy bitch.

 

[stupei]

i kinda figured as much. it seems a lot of the racist acts come from either a lack of understanding, or no interaction whatsoever.

From what my Korean friend has told me, white people in Korea are fairly rare -- much more so than somewhere like Japan -- and any other non-Asians are pretty much non-existent. She's advised other friends in the past that it's much easier to get work there as an English teacher if you're white because unfortunately a lot of Koreans would actually assume that a black person wouldn't be a native English speaker because they associate "American" with "white."

Obviously this is a form of racism, but it is born from actual ignorance and being such a closed off society for such a long time, though that's obviously changing as Korea's place in the global economy grows. The issues with the Japanese and Chinese are because of years being occupied and dominated by these other empires. Overall that's generally less about actual hatred and more of a competitive and sometimes grumbling resentment not all that unlike how some Americans can be nutty about the British or French but most of us just want to win at sporting events.

It appears from her blog though that Jenny Hyun was born in America, so not really any excuses for her, even if her remarks weren't absolutely batshit insane.
