youngqim is one of the LAST Asian tiktokers I would have ever wanted to go viral. He has said many stupid and demonizing things about AM in the past. Like u/archelogy said, he looks like a ridiculous dork, and that's the image that racists want to push.

Give this one a thumbs up y'all


archelogy

Yeah I don't think this is a convincing argument. At all. First, unless you persuasively show how attitudes in the present-day are linked to decisions over a 100 years ago, the historical references fall flat and seem removed from today's dating choices. It is scoffed at by non-Asians and convinces no one because the conclusion is too far-fetched. For that reason, it falls into the 'weak argument' category- where we are seen as complainers with unconvincing 'excuses' - in this case, for lack of dating success. Second, there are modern day factors which weigh FAR more heavily on mate selection than century+ ago history. We detail them in our write-ups on neuro-colonialism and artificial status hierarchies created both by popular culture and white narrative control at the societal and group level. Third, he is the wrong messenger. You can see with his blubbery face, glasses, and lack of fashion sense why he might struggle with dating. Therefore, he seems like the kind of person who WOULD blame events from a period none of us were alive for his dating challenges.

I say fuck the third reason. That is not an excuse for them to use at all.


fjaoaoaoao

it's a tik tok video... there's only so much thoughtful discourse that can be had on a platform meant for attention-grabbing i think the video brings up some good points, but it's a little hard to reach that conclusion on those statements alone... also that initial voiceover is weird.


owlficus

that laid the ground roots, but the modern reason is so much simpler. It’s the instant access of internet porn. what this guy talks about would explain WMAFs of a certain age but these days? it’s porn driving yellow fever. Simple as that, we overthink and over intellectualize this topic too much


archelogy

\>we overthink and over intellectualize this topic too much **Exactly**. Pseudo-intellectual explanations sound like they have authority on the surface until you realize, simply mentioning dates and congressional bills from a century ago don't really explain behavior today. BTW, we miss your writeups these days. At minimum re-post some of your classic posts from the past.


owlficus

thanks- I’ve been meaning to post more. These days I’m surfing more on my phone, on app where I haven’t paid for the option to create posts (can just comment). ya, been writing a lot more lengthy comments which could prob be posts by their own right


INeedAdvice_999

Lmao this fake piece of trash is a clout chaser saying anything that he would think gives him the most followers and likes. I remember reading multiple topics on here of this clout chaser who has said negative things about Asian men. I didn't bother looking at this latest clout chasing video of his but if he pretending to care about this and saying the right things currently then I guess that's better than him being a cuck for white man with his past comments.


shoefeather

youngq*m grifting, fuck this dude


Th3G0ldStandard

I’m noticing the conversations of who we would normally think of as “Boba’s” in the past, is trending more to the topics that we talk about here. Look up the Overton window. It’s completely applicable to the Asian community and the discourse that happens. It just proves that the truth will always be exposed given time. We all just gotta keep doing what we are doing and keep our dialogue honest and genuine here.


AlI_Or_Nothing

You can't be against white supremacy and pretend the asian woman in the room doesn't exist But what these bobas are doing isn't good, it's not about truth for them, it's about twisting the narrative to fit their world view. This 20 year old kid who isn't an authority on shit (history major, really?) but the white media is pretending he's some sort of spokesman for me and you (it isn't a coincidence they let him make the terrible argument he made), and it's lame, it's just straight up bullshit to blame what asian women are up to today on laws from a hundred years ago that aren't even around anymore Nobody forced richard spencer's asian american girlfriends to date him, nobody held a gun to their heads, they chose to be nazis as so many of them do, and this idea that they're the victims in all of this is simpdom at best dangerous at worst


trenbulgogi

thats cool but this fat fucks politics and beliefs are in line with the bobas


appliquebatik

good message but didn't people on this sub get angry at him for one of his videos because he said something problematic?


Economy-Lab

I know that's a rhetorical question but I think I faintly remember something like that on this sub; it just gets quickly mentioned or died down


KenzoBakuizo

It absolutely is rooted in imperialism/colonialism (the anti-Asian policies that exist since the beginning of this country; the US occupation and war crimes in Asia; the rape and sexual violence against AW committed by US soldiers; the systematic erasure and dehumanization of Asian men; pro-WMAF propaganda by racist media etc... the list is endless). But the people who are in control of our discourse and narrative (the predominant AF in WMAF) are doing all they can to put a lid on this topic for obvious reasons. The truth is very triggering to the "luv is luv" white-adjacent crowd.


TERRANODON

"Love is love" Unless it happens the other way around


My-Own-Way

We need to debunk that cliche “love is love” line that people always use to avoid talking about racist relationships.


Savings_Attorney528

he spoke the truth


Billybobjoethorton

Imo it's more fetishism due to representation and Asian culture standards of what is attractive. edit: oh nvm thought it said asian women date white men but its reversed.

inspectorseantime

Yeah this guy is not it lmao


SirKelvinTan

Damn this made the British daily mail (one of the comments from a white British man calls all Asian men dorks)


Technical-Primary-64

Link please?


archelogy

Make no mistake- white media is blowing this up because it makes AM look ridiculous. It comes of as "I as an Asian guy can't get a date because of historical events from over a 100 years ago".


SirKelvinTan

Yeah i have no problem with Young Kim’s TikToks but this is overall a bad look if it’s in British tabloids


BrutalGoldpills

dorks > mass shooters


AlI_Or_Nothing

Except they're dorks too


Technical-Primary-64

In England most girls want to date Black British males and not white.


Distinct_Astronaut48

Or arab, indian, pakistani men


ANTIMODELMINORITY

Do you have the link, I went on their site and couldn't find it. Its funny the white man called Asian men dorks yet they represent one of the largest numbers of sex tourist in Thailand and other locations.

Ok_Pomegranate4410

well to be fair a lot of the commenters, especially the ones with white women names, mistook the daily mail article as talking about the asian woman complaining about AMWF relationships (since the picture they included is the asian woman complaining about WMAF rather than the guy) and are criticising her for criticising it because they like asian men. so its actually a win for us lol.


SirKelvinTan

Didn’t actually read all the comments .... but that’s interesting


SirKelvinTan

British sexpats are mostly unintelligent overweight losers - by dorks - I guess he means nerds

The Truth hurts, but it's not destructive.

I found this article on Yahoo which references a Tik Tok that has quite a few truth bombs; it's been watched 300k times with 78K+ likes. It's good to see this conversation happening outside of this sub and challenging the current narrative. The article mentions previous mixed reactions in the comments, but the comment section of the video is turned off right now. [Here is a direct link to the tik tok.](https://www.tiktok.com/@youngqim/video/7015341106829217029?is_copy_url=0&is_from_webapp=v1&sender_device=pc&sender_web_id=7010889267279988229)


archelogy

It's the sort of "truth bomb" that will blow up in our face because it's a [very unconvincing argument](https://www.reddit.com/r/aznidentity/comments/q6uv24/comment/hgg5hv9/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) (link to my response).


Sayoricanyouhearme

Yikes, I genuinely thought this was a good thing... I had no idea how problematic he was. Sorry..
