“Wokeness” treats Asians as white adjacent and often dismisses the real issues they face because of an idea that other people suffer more. Eg see efforts to use BIPOC instead of POC. Those communities do suffer more, but that doesn’t invalidate the issues other people face.

The Asian community is kind of split on this. A lot of the older generations think like the poster but some younger second generation Asians are more “woke”.

Also see active efforts in California and in universities to reduce “overrepresentation” of Asians. In some ways it feels like you’re being punished for being too successful.

Affirmative action quotas have historically put Asian minorities at a significant disadvantage in college admissions.
