By the way, I've read some of the posts here (up to page 3), and I wanted to add that I'm a Korean-American from Los Angeles. I've dealt with plenty of racism in the melting pot known as Los Angeles, mostly from WHITE people. These aren't white people from the south, these are white people from LA (or rather, the suburbs of LA).
It's usually young guys. The worst of them are the ones you see in clubs. Similar to the way many foreigners in Korea complain of Korean men cockblocking them with Korean women, the same thing happens in Hollywood. One of my short Asian friends a few years back went to a club, and he approached this Asian chick who had all white friends, and she immediately told him, "I don't talk to Asian guys" -- which left him feeling weird, but then he started talking to some Latina and things were going great until some WHITE guy went up to them and said to the girl, "What are you doing with this guy? Don't you know Asians have the smallest dicks?" My friend went home in tears that night.
Of course, in high school I also had to deal with this, being called all kinds of names, people doing the slanty-eyes, being asked about eating dogs, being asked about my *beep*, etc.
I also used to date this white girl here in LA. She was tall, slim, blonde, and... loved Korean guys (it all started with G-Dragon). Because she was hot, I dated her even though I knew she just had a fetish. I didn't care. We were never bothered because we pretty much always stayed in Koreatown, but she did tell me something interesting about her trips to Korea, and the white guys in Korea who would hate on her for dating Korean guys.
They just couldn't understand why she would be into scrawny guys with small dicks. They just couldn't understand why this girl would pass up their awesome white bodies for Korean guys.
She's an interesting one though, in that she really despises white men and refuses to date them and only dates Korean guys, the same way some Korean girls completely despise Korean men and only date white guys. I will say though that in my experience white men are more threatened by Asian guys taking white women than Korean men are threatened by white men taking Korean women. Curious if anyone else has had this observation.
I also think it's funny how white people go to Korea and then complain about racism. It's like they lived their whole lives in a country where it was all about them and all of a sudden in a new country they feel discriminated against. NEWS FLASH: racism exists in your country, too. It's just that you were too blind to see it because it wasn't happening to you. What makes it funny is that you're still ignorant about the racism that minorities face back in your own home country.
...and this is my problem with white people. Just like many of you have your problems with Koreans. Interestingly, I have more white friends than I do Korean friends.
|
You seem to have an unhealthy obsession with your *beep* size.
Anyway, the existence of racism elsewhere in the world does not excuse racism in Korea. Most of the idiots I've met in Korea have been gyopos. The male gyopos seem to have a chip on their shoulder. Being the victim of racism shouldn't be used as an excuse to act like a dick to other people when they complain about racism. |
I don't have an obsession with my *beep* size. Many men of other races seem to have an obsession with the *beep* size of Asian men. Of course, it's not really an obsession with the Asian male *beep*, but a desire to put down Asian males.
...and I understand gyopos having a chip on their shoulder. I grew up in L.A. and had to deal with B.S. growing up, even from teachers (my second grade teacher told me Asians have flat pancake faces, and I was the only Asian in class). Some of these gyopos who grew up in other parts of the U.S. (like Tennessee) probably had it much worse. So it doesn't excuse their behavior, but it's understandable, just the way it's understandable how a lot of people on Dave's make racist rants against Koreans. |
Sorry but the Asians back home about how "The man", "whitey", and "the media" are out to get them and put me down are every bit as much a bunch of wankers as the people over here who do nothing but moan and scream how the Korea Times and MBC is engaged in a campaign of hate and how one day the Koreans are going to rise and ban together and do a Kristallnacht against the waygookin.
Two sides of the same coin. |

I'm a white dude. Never been jumped, haven't been mocked since I was a teenager, and the only women off limits to me are those who aren't into me. Can't think of the last time I was discriminated against. And my social circle definitely hasn't just been white people...
Overall, I'd say us white males still have it pretty good in the US of A. |
What I said isn't true for 100% of the white people in the USA, but are you actually trying to tell me that there is no truth to what I said at all? There is plenty of evidence out there to show every race gets kicked around here and there in the USA from time to time. White people are the majority and established economic and networking roots early on so the power curve goes in their favor, but they are still the minority in some schools/businesses/neighborhoods throughout the USA and can (and have) been discriminated against. Do you believe as a white person you are free to move through any neighborhood in the USA without being threatened or physically attacked? Do you believe as a White male you could move through any neighborhood in the USA with a non-white girlfriend and not have threats or insults yelled out at you? What about LA? |

bucheon bum knows what's up... whilst there is no denying that it does happens to white people, it's only at a tiny fraction of how it is with minorities, simply because the USA is (as you mentioned) based on a 'white' social and economic system, which is a privilege for you. Sure, some random on the street/in school might be prejudiced towards you personally... but when it comes to getting a job, a bank loan, education etc... white people have it pretty damn good and I think your privilege doesn't allow you to see this, simply because you don't have to. Just look at the stats for 'stop and search/frisk' in NYC for example.
And as for your question, though not directed towards myself, I think that if for example a white guy was to walk through a black neighbourhood and a white neighbourhood with a Korean girl, they would get more problems from white folks... I mean, that is just pure speculation and I have no evidence to show but from what I personally saw/heard whilst living in the US for 2yrs... gyopos and other Asians get a fair amount of abuse from whites, whereas I can't recall any blacks/latino/mexican people doing so. |

You should read my comment again. I said white people get discriminated against in WORSE WAYS than they do IN KOREA. When it does happen in the USA it is usually more blatant and dangerous than it is in Korea.
Aside from that, I didn't ask which race is more hostile towards inter racial relationships, I asked whether or not the poster believed it was safe for a white person to walk around in any non-white neighborhood with a non-white girlfriend. Or really whether or not the poster believes it is safe for a non white person to walk around in any non white neighborhood in the USA.
The USA is all about the region and neighborhood you happen to be in. I personally don't think Korea has the problems the USA has because it refuses to diversify. That isn't the approach that I like, but it keeps things from heating up here. There really is no justification for forcing multi culturalism or immigration on Korea either.
My point is that to meet someone that is white, who is from the USA (or any country really) and assume they have never experienced discrimination is ignorant. You may be talking to someone who has been assaulted or denied a job due to their whiteness.
I am not trying to deny the racism that exists among white people and I'm not trying to deny the vast amount of advantages that white people have in the USA. |

Most of my life I've lived in cities where african americans are the biggest segment of the population (Oakland and now DC). I don't disagree with you completely, just saying overall we have it good compared to "everyone else".
And yes, generally I can walk through pretty much neighborhood here or back in oakland and not be attacked. Not EVERY time perhaps and yes, I'm more likely to get abuse than a black person, but for the most part I'll be fine. It ain't shangri-la but it isn't hellish either. And yes, had I gone to a junior high or high school in a different part of Oakland, I would have faced a lot more abuse. My best friend hated life as a teen because he was the token white guy.
But as an adult? A different world really. I've never dated an African American woman, so who knows, maybe I'd see things in a different light if I did.. Kinda doubt it, but maybe I'm just naive like that. |

Yeah, that pretty much falls in line with what I see. I'm not specifically talking about White/Black racism anyway. I think maybe "every neighborhood" would have been a better way for me to phrase it than "any neighborhood". |

Funny how Whites finally get a taste of what it's like to be a minority and they assume it's WORST or terrible for POC. Western minorities have always lived as minorities. All because you finally understand what we go through in our native country doesn't mean we will have a terrible time.
If anything, we're a lot more tolerant of such instances of bigotry since it is what we experience daily since the day we escaped from the wombs of our mothers.
Unless you're a minority, I think all opinions on how we will be treated should be kept to yourself. So, the Koreans aren't bowing down to you and treating you the same way you are in the West? Your White privilege doesn't work here, but we never had that privilege to begin with.
Quit with the fear-mongering. |

Funny how I just bring up the idea of a White person being discriminated against and you have to fly off the handle with a ridiculous assumption. I suggest you go back and read the discussion and where I brought up the level of discrimination against white people and how and where it occurs.
Some people really have no idea how ignorant they come off when they just assume a white person has never been discriminated against. It's even more sad when those people get some kind of strange sadistic pleasure out of seeing it happen. It's as if it isn't the idea of discrimination that bothers them in and of itself. I think a more ethical approach would be to hold discrimination in contempt regardless of the race it is directed against.
What makes a minority though oceanhue? Are you suggesting that as a white person I'm not a minority in Korea? Do you mean the minority race relative to the racial breakdown of the entire world? continent? country? neighborhood? school? At what point can I claim my minority card so I can start telling the majority (whatever that means to you) they have no idea what they are talking about? |

Sorry, you are right, I did misread your post (tiny Blackberry screen!) and going back over it, I can see where you are coming from, apologies for the overly harsh (considering what you wrote) response. |

Unless you're white I think you should keep your opinions on how they're treated here or anywhere else to yourself. I say this because I, like you, am a racist who dismisses peoples opinions based on their skin color. |

Unless you're white I think you should keep your opinions on how they're treated here or anywhere else to yourself. I say this because I, like you, am a racist who dismisses peoples opinions based on their skin color. |
No, instead you just call ppl poster #1 and poster #2 and ignore what they have to say because it runs counter to your theories.  |

You should find more interesting and relavent people to stick up for.
Cam is an actual racist who doesn't think people's ideas matter unless they are a certain skin color.
Gadfly is an adolescent who responds to posts with image macros. 14yo humour really isn't worth anyone's time. He reeks of boring. |

Wow! You have been called out on your BS time and time again, yet you resort to the only conclusion that fits your agenda. Your ignorance knows no bounds and you need to educate yourself on the subject before using words you clearly don't understand.
Being ‘racist’ means that your behavior or attitude towards people will favor an outcome that privileges white people; that privileges a white supremacist value system.
If a Black person were ‘racist’ towards a white person or white people, their actions would help to create more favorable outcomes for white people than non-white people. For example, to be ‘racist’ towards a white person who is is being interviewed for a job by a black person, this would mean that the black person would desire to hire this White candidate because they are white; because they fundamentally believe in the white supremacist notion that White people are superior to non-white candidates.
As for being relevant, I dare you to answer my last set of questions I posted and we can get into just how relevant and valid they are.
Just be honest and admit that you made this thread in bad faith, simply to masturbate your own ego. You have shown that you are simply incapable of accepting criticism. |

Um... gotta say, cam - we have different definitions of racist. I can't say that I've ever heard that racism is exclusively PRO White.
In my experience, racism can come from near any ethnicity and be directed at any other ethnicity.
The rest of it, the attacks on you and weak OP... I agree with. |

I responded to your erroneous claims with a clear explanation and links to sites that have the data that supports my explanation over yours. I responded to your analogies by pointing out the flaws, and presenting analogies of my own, which went uncontested by you. I responded to your "quit responding to my stuff because I'm not going to change my mind no matter what new information is presented to me" with an image macro stating "I do what I want." I admit, it was childish -- I was responding in kind to you...and calling me boring is a more telling indictment of you than it is of me, so I will leave that one stand with a quote:
“She refused to be bored chiefly because she wasn't boring.”
― Zelda Fitzgerald, The Collected Writings
I find the contrapositive to be true as well....
Besides the personal attacks, do you have any facts, studies, chains of logic, or other support to refute any of the flaws in your position that I have pointed out to you? Belief is a wonderful thing, except when one wants to use it as part of an empirical, logical discussion. I fully support your right to believe anything you want, but my acceptance of your right to believe does not make what you believe a supportable position. You can believe that cigarettes and soju are good for your health, but in light of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the wiser course of action would be to re-examine the beliefs you hold, rather than name-calling the folks that are trying to make you aware of the dangers. |
