Tangentially related, as a white person looking back it's only other white people that bullied me or gave me shit. Minorities were always "If, you're cool, then we cool" attitude. It's shitty but it seems that Asians are the one group everyone feels they can punch down on.
Yep, Asians are the easy target. What’s worse is being half-Asian, some Asians give you the side eye, or pretend you aren’t worth acknowledging. So you’re getting the cold shoulder experience from all angles, regardless of race. Hell, my Asian half of the family is racist as all get-out towards black people.
My anecdote where I screeched for several paragraphs talked of my experiences at that moment in time, but I got bullied a ton by the racist white kids when the family returned to the US. From personal experience, racism revolves heavily around the demographics. Strength in numbers, etc. Black kids were as big a minority as the Asian kids in the school I went to for a few years in nowhere Pennsylvania, so it was all from the white kids. Heard the n word dropped plenty of times alongside the ching-chong commentary.
Long story short, as any sane person knows, racism permeates all demographics. It’s everywhere. Opening a conversation on the subject with “all white people are racist” is hilariously lacking in self-awareness. Having lived in so many places and experiencing racism from every demographic, it’s impossible for me to not scoff at such a one-size-fits-all statement.
