No one wants to see Asians on screen, including Asians

Slanty eyed mongloids are the ugliest race after niggers

except for western women

walking dead being the most popular show for them

>They only cast white actors in movies and tv produced in Asia
White people really believe this

Oh sweetie.

whoa, it's almost like the media stereotypes minorities!

i fucking hate asians dude

They be populace for they be low. If be high it not populace

Apologize for bad english!

Even Asians hate Asians. It's like they know something.

out come all the insecure whitebois

theyre trying to thats for sure

...

What are we insecure about exactly? Chinks have 4 inch dicks on average and stand at 5'5 tall, it's comical that you think we're insecure

It very toxins action
NO GOOD! NO GOOD!

Why would we want to start casting asians as whites? Isn't that cultural appropriation? AFAIK there's no room in asian cultures for what you imagine as a "non stereotypical" role.

Yeah you look at a lot of chink dicks daily don't you?

Chinks have some hot traps, user-kun-chan-senpaitachi

whites are too busy promoting blacks on tv

glen was so cringey and out of place, just like every other asian on screen and irl

Well I'm white and I like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan

Shit skin middle easterners and Indians are worse

>Sup Forumssters being cuck
Nothing new to see here

...

The Korean is not the draw, sorry.

I don't know if I'd call Glenn season 1 stereotypical but he's nowhere near the hard cunt he turns into by the end of his run on the show.

A large part of acting is the eyes and those bulging, squinted eyes are not appealing.

>Chinks have 4 inch dicks on average and stand at 5'5 tall, it's comical that you think we're insecure
Comical indeed

why are asian americans such whiny, entitled, crybaby bitches compared to asians born in asia?

Nobody wants to casts Asians in lead or non-stereotypical roles because no one wants to risk having a non-believable character since most Americans think Asians are a certain way.

because 'diversity' actually means black male

They grow up in an America that expects them to be a certain way (weak, model minority and yet perpetual foreigner at the same time, unattractive). So they grow up wanting to be American, wanting the things Americans want, wanting to fuck that white women, but can't because society says they are all weak beta males.

how many levels of sociology 101 are you on?

You're actually not that far off. I just took Asian Contemporary Issues for that forced diversity credit.

Is this why Sup Forums literally worships white women?

Back to /r/asianmasculinity ya go

>act like whiny beta males
>wonder why society calls you beta males

Well, society does prize white women the most. White women are the standard for beauty. I mean, for black women to be attractive they have to be very light skinned and relax their hair. Even Asians who get the eyelid surgery are more attractive.

So that's partially the reason, Sup Forums also likes them simply for being white and the potential carriers of the next generation of white babies.

Correct. When you're white there is no upgrade.

This is going off on a tangent a little bit but.. How often in movies are Asian men interested in women at all? Why must they be asexual?

I grew up in a small town so I don't know many Asian guys, but in what way are they beta?

i dunno, why waste a token minority spot on an asian when you can just hire a nigger and get like quadruple the sjw brownie points for your progressive show? its not like the asians whine or complain if you leave them out. besides how many asians go into hollywood acting anyway? they get pushed hard to get real jobs instead

So ostensibly you learned all about how white people have plotted out this racist conspiracy to prop up Asians as a model minority by letting them completely replace white people in the Ivy League and other elite universities, make shittons of money, and achieve staggering economic success. Just think about how amazing a plan that is.

I wonder why nobody in the 19th century ever thought of that. They actually just banned Asians from the whole country, so fucking dumb. If only they could've understood the machievellian genius of importing an elite class of foreigners to replace natives in virtually all prestigious professions and educational institutions. That's being smart.

>Why is modern media so afraid of casting asian males in non stereotypical roles?
American-Asians aren't the demographic for western films and TV. Actual Asians in Asian countries don't care because they have their own film industry don't need someone that looks like them to enjoy a movie.

Just watch Chinese, Korean and Japanese films of it bothers you so much.

He's not entirely wrong. Studios forced them to turn 47 Ronin into being about Keanu Reeves, instead of leaving him as a smaller side character.

The Last Samurai is about Tom Cruise.

Hollywood is really damn weird about it.

Just look at this video:

>Chinese-Americans and actual Chinese people try Panda Express
>Actual Chinese people recognise it as good food and enjoy it, despite it being different from authentic Chinese food
>Chinese-Americans act like children, say it's gross, act elitist about it and go on about muh while people Chinese food

Genuine cringe.

>The Last Samurai is about Tom Cruise
I wish people wouldn't complain about this movie's "white washing".

>Samurai is plural and Tom Cruise is NOT a Samurai
>It's actually a good movie
>It's supposed to be a "stranger in a strange land" movie

If they are American, smart, not robots, and actually deserving of the spot in the school, what's the issue?

And anyways, that issue is with the colleges who get fucking greedy for international student money. Plus, Asians on the surface are doing well for themselves, til you look into it. For example, Asian families make more money than whites on average, but this is because many of them live in huge cities on the west coast (I live in Seattle). So they get paid more, but cost of living is super high so it means fuck all.

There's no need to appeal to them because they have an entire industry to themselves.

TB H, we'd rather us than the other diversity hires shoehorned front and center

Is this what it's like to have no cultural identity?

>Chinese people born and raised in China will never be American, but will always be "Chinese"
>Chinese people born and raised in America will never be considered Chinese by actual Chinese people and never be seen as American by Americans

idk why are whites such whiny, entitled, crybaby bitches about a black james bond? (all while stroking their chubs to white women getting BLACKED by BBC?)

great video
it's ironic that Chinese-Americans call it white people Chinese food when they themselves are essentially Chinese white people.

This is part of the reason Asian Americans are the way they are.

standard r/asainmasculinity response

but thats not even English.

I wasn't really arguing against the idea of meritocracy. My point was that the idea that white people have some ulterior motive when they "stereotype" Asians as smart and successful is just sjw lunacy. The only people who can take that seriously are people who dedicate themselves to finding racism in literally everything white people do. These are people who'd look at white foam rising to the top of their cup of brown coffee and want to sue Starbucks for perpetuating white supremacy.

He, this reminds me of the turks here in Germany.
What they do is always tell others how great Turkey is while never even thinking about moving there because it is a shithole.

hooly fuck i gotta start rapping, that bitch is hot as fuck and her tits are perfect. im mad jelly.

> unironically thinks this is a "stranger in a strange land" move and not a white savior movie

Basically this. I wonder if actual Chinese people view Chinese-Americans in the same way?

I guess the same happens with white people born and raised in Asian countries?

>ugliest race

>Turkey
>Great

Pick one. I guess it's like the illegal Mexican immigrants in America that says Mexico is great, but are scared because they're being deported back there now.

>Japan, Korea and China

Which one has the best women?

One of the many reasons ethnonationalism is best for everyone.

Korea.

its like being half nigger i guess, you're easier to swallow than full niggers, but you can still say nigger without having to say "n word". same thing with being asian-american, you basically get most of the comforts of being a white american but can also pull a minority card sometimes

>Asian Hordes (The Dothraki)
>The Asian Hordes stereotype is basically the fear that the vast number of Asians will come to the West, and destroy Western (white, dominant) culture. The stereotype also gives off the idea that since there as so many Asians out there, that each of them as individuals are expendable.

>The Martial Artist (Bruce Lee)
>In all of Bruce Lee’s movies, he is a stoic, celibate, and unrivaled in martial arts. His wild success gave birth to the stereotype that all Asians are martial artists, and that they aren’t interested in females. He also set the mold for what it meant to be an Asian actor in America. If you weren’t a martial artist, and if you were interested in white females, then you wouldn’t get a role.

>Asexual sidekick (Jackie Chan)
>The stereotypical of asexual Asian sidekick is prevalent in many movies. There are a few reasons why this stereotype exists. One is because Asian men are often seen as asexual. They are only interested in getting the job done, and thus have no time for pleasure with women. Another reason Asian men are portrayed as asexual is because they need to counter balance their co-actor’s overt sexualization. Yet another reason is because Asian men cannot be perceived as threatening to white men, specifically they cannot threaten a white man by “stealing” the girl.

>Kemosabi (Thao, Gran Turino)
>Kemosabi is the Asian stereotype that shows a nice and friendly Asian sidekick, who isn’t always the brightest.

I used to think Japan had the best, until I discovered K-Pop and cute Korean YouTubers.

Because James Bond is British you dumb chink.

>Basically this. I wonder if actual Chinese people view Chinese-Americans in the same way?

They do in fact for a long time if you weren't born in the mainland you weren't considered Chinese. It's changing now since China is becoming more international minded but they still see Chinese Americans as Americans not Chinese.

The thing is jews are in charge of pop culture and this is what happens when they lead society. every other race degenerates and turns to shit. we have to do sometghing about these fucking kikes Sup Forums

>Model Minority.
>The model minority stereotype is an insidious one. White people use it to “compliment” Asians on how well they assimilate into white culture. They use it to assume that all Asians are good at something, such as math or playing an instrument. They use it as a weapon to show other minorities that assimilation and success is possible, just look at the Asians! Just look how well Asians are doing, they don’t even complain!

>Perpetual Foreigner (Long Duck Dong)
>The perpetual foreigner Asian stereotype shows an Asian American living in the united states, who has not, cannot or will not assimilate into white dominant culture

>Geisha and Homosexual (Asians in porn)
>Geisha stereotype is the stereotype that Asian females are there to serve, specifically serve white men. Asian females are to be very feminine, very submissive, easy to control, won’t complain, and yet is sexual. The homosexual stereotype is a way to show Asian men as non-threatening to white men and their sexuality. If the Asian male is gay, then he cannot take women away that the white male would want to have sex with. Another idea behind the stereotype is that Asian men are submissive, small, and effeminate, therefore they must be homosexual.

>you basically get most of the comforts of being a white american but can also pull a minority card sometimes
Eh, when you are Asian you now get more fucked by affirmative action than whites.

The Dothraki aren't Asian, what the fuck are you on about? Stop lumping Asians in with middle-eastern people.

there's that whole plastic surgery thing though

Just watch Asian cinema. You have an entire industry.

Yeah why is that? Asian women aren't really my thing, but Korean women have the best legs.

You may be right, however the stereotype does have negative impacts on actual Asian Americans. Like, how pissed would you be if you Asian and shit at math?

I've seen Korean girls that are very attractive without plastic surgery.

I'm pretty sure Bruce has nailed a fair bit of maidenly quim in his features.

Also:

>Asian guy too humble/stuck up for good times is a stereotype
>Good times asian guy is a stereotype

>George R.R. Martin has stated that the Dothraki are inspired by a loose mix of the Mongols, Huns, Alans, Turks, Native American plains tribes

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Asians dominate tech, yet are disproportionately underrepresented in leadership positions. Despite this, Steve Bannon says there are too MANY Asian CEO's. When people were polled on how they felt on school affirmative action, they said it should be banned and based completely on merit. When told that the schools would become drastically Asian, people changed their answer to include leadership as a criterion.

People think that Asians are incapable of being alpha and will even justify underrepresentation of Asian leadership with the fact that there aren't many Asians in leadership (so...circular logic). The bamboo ceiling is real, and yet people in this thread unironically think it doesn't matter.

I really can't think of any poon Bruce slayed in his movies.

Not that user, but I don't get it either:

>Japanese girls don't wear make up, won't fix their fucked up teeth because dental hygiene isn't a big "thing" in Japan and are incredibly passive
>Chinese girls are awful from a cultural stand point (money and status obbssed)
>Korean girls are the most attractive and balance out the other qualities

>so alpha that all it takes is a stereotype to keep them down
Really makes me think.

Japan, if you take personality into account.

*asian

It even extends to colleges. Grad school admissions, professor positions, and tenure track opportunities are all low for Asians.

It wasn't a memorable feature, but law of averages states that at least a few of his films had to have a romantic lead to get captured/killed by bad guys.

A quick googling gives me this tidbit youtube.com/watch?v=AKVzjvBcpUY

>won't fix their fucked up teeth because dental hygiene isn't a big "thing" in Japan

Their fucked up teeth is seen as a thing of beauty. Korean Americans are by far the easiest to get into bed, unless you consider disgusting filipinas Asian.

> implying black people can't be british

Greetings fellow patricians.

Because of jewish nepotism.

Their culture breeds submissive people, that's the actual problem. The whole "we're stronger together" mentality that goes against individualism and a history of government that puts people in classes will do that.

my god

Of course they aren't.

Not just the "fangs", even seriously fucked up teeth.

Also, how to get a cute Korean gf?

There is no fucking minority card

Whites say "fuck you" and treat us like we're 1 step above being black

Blacks say "fuck you" and treat us like we're the white man oppressing them even though we have less absolute and relative political power than blacks by FAR

anyone else get annoyed by asian meme videos?

they usually share a few traits
1. too much work put in for a questionable punchline
2.random chink noises
3.not funny at all

I just skimmed that movie and didn't see such a scene. All I found was he touched her hand and gave her a hug.
