Let me just tell you about my commute back home three hours agoā¦now that I have cooled down a bit and had some dinner.Ā
I witnessed a man trying to get on the train (thereās room, but this white lady is taking up a good amount of space by the pole)ā¦he gets on and kindly asks said lady āhi miss, could you please move in?ā This woman legit just rolls her eyes, says no and goes on to tell the guy she was having a conversation with next to herĀ āthis is why I fucking hate Asiansā. White guy, ARE YOU SERIOUSLY GOING TO CONTINUE TALKING TO THIS HORRIBLE HUMAN BEING AND MAKE NO REMARK ABOUT WHAT JUST ESCAPED HER MOUTH LIKE IT MEANT NOTHING? Youāre just as bad- if not, worse.Ā
Holy shizznit. You could imagine the terror, the shock and the anger boiling over me. I was so disturbed and horrified that I could NOT respond. I was at a loss for words and had zero capacity to produce any of the 3,000 things I wanted to say to her. My eyes were just bulging out and I landed in another dimension with my hands over my head running 3928579752 million laps per minute and turning into 3782587 jumbled internet memes because I donāt think she realized that the guy wasnāt even Asian?????? Mind you, I (Asian) was not 50 feet away, but five freaking millimeters in distance away from her.Ā
I am so agitated and ruffled that I didnāt have the words to say anything out loud. I couldnāt even process it after 30 minutes. Had I initiated a conversation with that person, I would never have gotten off that train. IT IS 2018!!! Take your ignorant, privileged, poorly educated, manner-less, lack of awareness, bigot self out of the U.S. Your presence isnāt wanted or welcomed. IĀ hope that when any of you witness situations like this, you are able to say something. Stand up for yourself, stand up for others and do not let this happen. Itās not pleasant and itās really NOT okay.Ā
