#VeryAsian #LocalNews #Viral

I’m Latino. Asians are cool Asian women hot 🥵. 🔥
I grew up in Hawaii as "Haole". I was TORMENTED by asians (mostly Japanese and Filipinos) every phucking day. I was ignored by Japanese tellers in banks. My Japanese algebra teacher told all "haoles" to wait outside his classroom and he gleefully failed me (I had to take a general math class to graduate). I had mangoes thrown at me almost daily and skipped school so much I almost didn't graduate.
Saying all that I love asians and their cultures and food but I am SICK AND TIRED of this phucking narrative towards white people. The elephant in the room is blacks hatred towards asians. They are the true culprits. QUIT PHUCKING IGNORING IT and start calling them out.
Asian lives matter
#veryasian
Melanated people must be thrilled. A voicemail to a news reporter gets the attention, while all of their actual physical attacks get zero coverage.
Wait… isn't Very Asian supposed to mean very nice or very hard working?
ALL HUMANS ARE HUMAN; E PLURIBUS UNUM
There are ugly people in this world.
Congratulations Eileen Gu got 3 gold for China!thanks OBM thanks Biden thanks Democrat made Americans last!
I’m super clumsy #verywhite lol
I am so happy Asian are speaking up & fighting back. America is not for White People only but I would also admonish Black Americans who think they are the only minorities in America ( see Brian Flores NFL story). Progress has been made but there is much work left to do.
BREAKInG NEWS Michelle Li gets Ellen Degeneres old time slot on NBC once Ellen retires.
What's the voice mail like?
Trump has unleashed caucasians on mexicans, and asians but corporations and governmental agencies with trillion of dollars invested in China wants to change the narrative. Accusing falsely that asians are being attacked by blacks and theses play along to get along asians participate in this false narrative. Fools.
I think Tom is Latino decent
Be who you are! Spread more love to EVERYONE! Be the change to stop racism, and always keep learning!
There are so many ASIAN …Sth Korea //Philippine Taiwan ….So many ..these are ALLIES
Oh man she make me cry.. My heart break 🙏
Lol most likely a Korean relative from oversea
Just stop hate ✋️
"If a white anchor talked about white people ate…"??? What a ridiculous comparison. "White people" is not a cultural group. A proper comparison would be "if a Norwegian-American anchor talked about what Norwegians ate…" or "if a Scottish-American anchor talked about what Scottish people ate…" or "if a German-American anchor talked about what Germans ate…". Would such a Norwegian-American or Scottish-American or German-American anchor be fired for talking about what Norwegians or Scots or Germans ate on New Years? No!
.
Karen sent in that voicemail. Karen struck again.
CNN admitted Asians were being attacked by the black community. Didn't report that because it would hurt the BLM "cause" instead they blamed Trump and his supporters
Anti race, you dont know what anti race, abusive journalist are always war? Viva films are you? Hate are gender addiction. Please, your a relatively of financial broken doorknob abusive male health of nonesence karma journalist war of broken family insist more populated more broken family. Asian moles insecurities. Jewish pointing fingers. Sick and tired of your insecurities gender. You actually your people go to my yard.
Sounds like a college admission office
You know….I have wondered why people get uppity about race. Are we not all spirits inhabiting physical bodies to learn lessons here on the physical plane. I think if folks would remember this we would have a lot less grief and much more love.
