- How far is too far before you call the #racist card?
We asked four #AsianAustralians to respond to common questions and tell us if they believed it was racist and if so, why.

Be nice to get a broader group of Asian Australians who don't pull up the race card so easily.
We may need a third racket haha! You can look forward to more eps of ‘Is this racist’!
@@kozziecom Get an Asian that don't believe in racial hierarchy or privileges - these Asians all believes the white man is above them. Very sad.
I'm so sorry but giving Asian people table tennis rackets in a video about Asian stereotypes is absolutely hilarious
Great questions and the answers were quite eye opening and the perspectives are quite broad 👍👍👍
eye opening
really underrated channel, glad i found it!
😍🤩🥰 we're glad to have found you too!
Harry Jun gave such insightful answers - this was such a great video!
Gotta listen to his history as well th-cam.com/video/hT1Iqo6i1FE/w-d-xo.html
It’s great seeing Asian Australians put themselves out there. There are not many opportunities for Asian born and bred Australians with Aussie accents in the media. Where are the Vietnamese Aussies?
As an Asian Australian PLEASE, say that I’m good at English, because I’m very insecure about it
Haha, yes!
Thats so interesting 3/4 said an asian only dating asians (I think its kinda discriminatory) wasnt racist but 4/4 said a white person only dating asians was racist. Personally I think a lot of these were more ignorant things than racist. Also the guy who said that asians cant be racist because whites have power I want him to meet my family because the stuff they say in Korean in front of other races ...💀 💀
Wow, someone who is actually reasonable. I'm white, so apparently if i date an asian girl its my 'yellow fever' and my insatiable desire to 'dominate' wtf? sounds like a racist stereotype to me.
A non-Asian stranger has no right to assume anything about my language based on my appearance. Their intention is not to learn. It's to show how accepting they think they are of other cultures, but it's actually condescending and ignorant
There is a flip side to that coin. A non-white stranger has no right to assume anything about my language based on my appearance. Their intention is not to learn. It's to show how accepting they think they are of other cultures, but it's actually condescending and ignorant.
Yeah I'm straight up american with european culture roots and I think it's really offensive to make remarks about somebody's language or culture or assume that they are inferior in some way.
But it's ok well well known racist Japanese and Chinese people do it to you? lol
That is pure self hatred.
Worst drivers
@@tropicalaussie5801What is the main and primary language of Australia?
As a Filipino Australian, going to primary school and high school I did rather experience racism, but it stopped after that. Most Australians are very social and friendly. I mostly got comments as the cool asian haha, oh dear. Most comments i receive from other Asians we're "Wow, your English is really good!" *chuckle*
The fact that they didn't have one Vietnamese australian discredits this video
Exactly, there are many Australian Vietnamese who have successfully assimilated into Australia and speak with a local Accent and they are almost never represented in the media! It’s sad seeing the ABC use new migrants of ethnic Chinese descent with thick accents to work as news presenters and represent Asians when there are loads of local Australian Asian people who were born and bred here! This misrepresentation in the media is damaging as white people see Asian Australians as perpetual foreigners!
good idea with table tennis rackets
Part two coming shortly...!
I am Filipino and I don't find the questions offensive at all. I think it depends on the receiver on how he/she will react. It will be more peaceful if we will always choose to be kinder and think more before reacting. Let's be more open, understanding, and sympathetic to one another.
Well it’s your opinion, but others may find it offensive.
@@mustafanaqvi5729 Yes it is mine alone. And I agree to your opinion.
@ sound2good TV
I agree with you up to a certain point but largely I disagree with you in this context too !
When an Aussie white male, young bloke, asked me for money on the streets of Melb, I said no, unfortunately I dont bring cash.. sorry” and then he called me fucking Asian, calling Ha Gao and Dim Sum, Siu may. And I turned and got back the same thing as him and we ( Im a woman and he is a bloke obviously 🙄) squabbled all the way around Southbank until my boyfriend decided to said stop me.
Today whilst waiting in the bank, the white Aussie woman called me stupid fucking Asian, with no brain and she also called me a c . . t ( I know you all know what word is that) because she thought i cut her queue, in which of course I did NOT cut and tried to explain politely but firmly but she kept rattling on.
I then made a point to her : “ what’s wrong with being an Asian ? Whats got to do with queue ? And I said “ you are racist and watch your mouth” .
I dont care if the bank’s camera was there. I faced racism in Australia like i face racism back in Indonesia.
I am not Australian born but basically i have lived more than half of my life here. I pay my tax every year correctly and diligently. I contribute to society, i dont use centrelink at all. To be called like that is not only disgusting but I want to puke 🤮 From the country I was born, damn if I am Chinese.
Coming to Australia, damn if I am an Asian. Wow.. what. a . world
She was lucky, i didnt tell her than this country was originally belong to the Aboriginal people and we are all immigrants!!!!!
@@Coco-to5jj No worries. I respect your opinion
@@sound2goodtv836
Just make sure other races don’t look down on you. Ever.
I realise even if I am nice or kind, the racism happens subtly.
I tolerated too much at work and in public when I was younger. As I am much older now., there is NO WAY i let people step on to me !!!
I swear these people say ‘ni-hao’ to me on the street, just cuz I look Asian. I’m not even Chinese 💀💀
say bonjour back
@@isabellewarren535 tahahahahah
It is so laughable for some white dude only guessing to find out the wrong answer instead of asking questions to find out a factual answer in the first place. What they learnt from high school all these years 😂
I’m Malaysian-Australian and I’m not really that good at mandarin
Texas and Florida proposed to ban Chinese citizens from purchasing real property in the States. It is a symbol of the 21st-century Chinese Exclusion Act. People (Chinese with h1b visa, green card etc., and some Chinese-naturalized American) are feverishly discussing a better place to move to. Australia looks very appealing.
Don’t even try
It has nothing to do with Chinese. It has to do with the fact that people who ARE NOT citizens (and are usually wealthy [enough to purchase said property]) are contributing to the increasing property rates. Even more infuriating when they are purely used as assets and are vacant. Don't get me wrong the US is MESSED UP in so many ways other than what you mentioned that causes the housing shortage, but to say that foreign investment isn't a contributing factor is equally as false as if I were to say that there are no domestic reasons.
They have taken over Sydney wish they would get out
Some Americans are to be brainwashed by evil cults leader in church or from mobile phone by the negative social media platforms because they were addictive to bad influence. All the fear and negative mindset created a massive gun shooting. So I couldn't count on the twisted logic from America.
The question: Your English is good.....It gets me all the time. I'm Italian first Australian citizen by default. That question has been shot across at me too, in a context of a bullshit self-important office, managed by a pronounceable; Wilson, Jones, Collins, with a very weak anglophile superiority complex. The people that state that question are mostly under educated and have been indoctrinated with a bigotry principle, 'only Anglo-Saxons speak good English'.
I undertook all my studies in Australia, from P1 to University. Aside from the fact I and my siblings schooling was interrupted, we returned to Italy for a couple of years, our spoken English is on par colloquial Australian. Anglo-saxons that have never travelled don't know there is a big world beyond North of Darwin. DUH!
Yellow fever...gosh. My son is half Korean and he is beautiful! Italian and S. Korean. No, I have never thought Asian women are submissive, or kow tow. Certainly not the ones I have met past or present. They are more effeminate than Anglo-Australians, but not submissive! Ha ha.
As a whitey Italian I never heard of Yellow Fever until the advent of You Tube..ha ha. There are individuals with a predilection for a certain appearance in a woman, right? I don't find blonde and blue eyed particularly appealing. Dark hair, hazel eyes or Asian eyes is sub-consciously appealing in my eyes (and mind). Skin pigmentation, does that matter? I don't know....Yes I do have Asian male friends...anyway, good video peeps!
"Your English is so good" is the worst!
You know the rule in Australia:
Asian girls ❤️ White Australian men
2:30 "yeah I am good at English I'm better than you " had me laughing. It's brutally true! Most white Aussies usually bogans can't pronounce words properly. " Welcum to Austraya mate!" It's AUSTRALIA damn it.
Lmao
Whah!!! You can’t drive 🤓
I like that people are raising awareness about Asian hate, but I hate that people always leave other Asians out, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Malaysian, Singaporean people aren’t the only Asians out there. There are more than 48 countries part of Asia. Asian is not an ethnicity, but a Race in a way.
Wonder why🤔
Some white dude assumed all Asians were only Chinese, it just so laughable for how they could live in their only little bubble all these years.
I find it's usually Asians say to other Asians about speaking good English..... they're envious of you rather than being racist
As far as I'm concerned if you have an Australian accent your Australian
As an Asian-American I find practically nothing racist about chatty Asian questions and comments unless they're back with obvious negative emotion. That just is not usually the case, it's usually just ignorance or curiosity.
I think people need to be more reasonable and not assume that everyone has ill intentions. Some people just want to connect but dont know how and end up saying the wrong thing.
Making fun of the person is an ill intention, a personal attack. It is not a logical way to get to know the person. These people need to go back to school to learn how to respect people imo.
WHY DOES THE GUY WITH THE BLACK GLASSES SOUND SO MUCH LIKE FELIX i mean the Aussie accent Hes also Korean :O
See now this might sound racist and I’m not trying to be but I got real stoned and randomly thought about someone speaking Korean, or Japanese, or Chinese but using an Australian accent!! Like I’m from Canada I speak english and lets say I perfectly was able to do an Australian accent what would that same Australian accent sound like while speaking in Korean, Chinese, Japanese!?
Serious question: Why can I put on an Italian, American or Australian accent but not an Asian accent? Honestly just wondering. Cheers.
Good question. Well, I’d say context is key here too.
The main reason why Asian accents are taken as a mocking gesture is because historically, through film, tv, and whatever, they’ve been depicted in a negative way.
Not to mention not all asian accents are the same.
The asian accent done by most westerners anyways is the “Ching Chong” stereotype, which isn’t how any asians really talk.
Don’t get me wrong, we should laugh as much as we can at each other. It’s just asian accents are so poorly done that it’s just cringe at this point.
Now if you can pull off a damn good Korean English accent, or a mandarin English accent, power to you! It’s all about how authentic it comes across. Hope that helps.
Many cultures are proud of their unique accent..but I think some Asians think having an accent shows a lack of education...they have 'standards' thinking that to speak English properly you need to sound like a native speaker
It's looked upon as taunting and stereotyping the Asian person. Have you ever seen the movie Breakfast with Tiffany. They had a white Mickey Rooney playing an Asian guy. It was absolutely gross. If it happened today I would bomb the theatre.
@@waynelee7871 Agree. But I've also seen Chinese movies from decades ago that depicted white people in derogatory ways.
@@scanspeak00 Boo hoo
Some of this seems a little dated. Growing up in Sydney in the 70s, there weren't a lot of Asian kids at our school but most Anglo-Australians under 40 will have gone to school with people from every corner of the planet. Country towns can be insular, but our cities have thousands of Asian-Australians with Aussie accents. And FWIW, every Asian country I've been to has a long history of dissing their neighbours - it's just more subtle than some of the boofheads here. Whether Australians like it or not, our pollies are looking to India for young, educated taxpayers (!) to support our aging population - hopefully Pauline Hanson will be dead before that starts to take effect.
It is inevitable to come across some sort of racism and ignorance growing up in Australia. It's a melting pot of different cultures out here.
The intention is EVERYTHING. Ignorance is not racism. Racism is when 1 race thinks they are superior to another.
If I as a white guy went to Korea and people said, wow your Korean is good I would not feel offended in the slightest, in fact it's a compliment. Or if they assume I'm American I don't get offended either.
People are way too sensitive and insecure.
I love how you can't even tell the racism in your own comment lmao These people didn't "go" to Australia (or America or whatever), they ARE Australian. Telling them that their English is good is assuming that they couldn't possibly be Australian because they're Asian.
As a white man you don't get to tell people of color what is racist and what isn't. Educate yourself and know your place.
Check out Avenue Q: everyone's a little bit racist sometimes.
1. In the past no. Now yes, as they assume my ethnicity. But I would still let it slide.
2. Yes. I do tell them I am from Singapore where English is the working language.
3. Yes. It is an assumption and stereotype.
4. No. Given how many Asian ladies are dating White men, it is always nice to see more Asians dating Asians.
5. Yes. See above. The exception, it is an Asian Male White Female relationship.
6. Yes. Amazing how he even became 45th POTUS
Since when is expressing a preference symtomatic of racism?
only if your white bro didnt you know? Its not racist for Asians to only date asians, or for asian women to have a preference for black men. But God forbid if a white guy has preferences it must be his 'yellow fever' and urge to 'dominate' lmao
Australia should be open to Asians because Australia is close to Asia... That's why Australia should be open to Asians...
BS don’t want them it’s been inundated with them and they are racist too
These are all oretty petty. When your surrounded with your own kind all day long listening to music in your own language, movies in your own language, seeing faces that are your same ethnicity etc… then an asian oerson comes along…its not racist to be shocked and say something like “wow ur english is really good”….we all do the same when the roles are reversed…were more aware since it happens to us but a lot of asians say the same type of stuff when its reversed.
I don’t think those are racist all the way😂
Asians are very good at math.
BS😂😂😂😂😂
Never realized Australia had so many Asians
Red paddle comment
@@andyandys5356If you say so. I'm not Australian and looked at the demographics and saw that 16.5% of Australians are of Asian ancestry. 12.5% are of mainly Chinese, Korean, Filipino, Sri Lankan, Indian, and Vietnamese ancestry. That's quite alot of people. This video made me curious as to the demographics of Australia and I ended up being surprised. I always though Australia had around a 90% White population.
Oh I thought you meant you didn't know the difference between the various countries.....sorry...
yes population wise its not that high but there are some areas you go to, it will feel like the entire city is Asian
@@MariE-bz2eq Mind you we're in Oceania which is right by the Asian region and the country besides native Australians is literally built on immigration
People moved to different countries to find their dream job, career or job promotion. It doesn't make sense for just pointing at Asian. Doesn't matter what colour of your skin. Don’t we all looking for our opportunities, achievements and goals in life???😒
lol the singaporeans just don't get it if they didn't grow up in australia
So why do australians malaysian korean asians think trump is racist? That to me is wierd
"Wow, you must be at maths" is, first all is very poor English.and secondly it is offensive, Australia uses English, not that US rubbish.
Better eduction is true, BUT, I have to through in a but. how many languages are used on this planet?
I’m white. If an Asian came to me and said HELLO! and he didn’t speak English I would not care as I hear and see it just a hello and I would smile 😊 also none of this is racism
Asian women are not weaklings. You got it all wrooong. If they are soo weak, then why is it that they use their white husbands to get an Australian citizenship then ditch their husbands? I lost count how many true stories like this i have heard.
They are very manipulative,cruel, and cunning. Two of my white friends departed from the world because their thai wives stole the riches from their noses and were abusing them and messed them up bad. Even with all the psychological help they got, they couldn't take it in the end. 😢
These people are too sensitive!
I like to add saying White People is racist and secondly White People aren't the only people racists in Australia. I know for a fact most of the Asians in my area are racists and won't trade outside their race unless they have no choice. But they aren't the only racists nationality in my area.
I wonder how people who from undevelopment countries(south america, south east asia and china), how they got visa ? Student ? Or..
lotta double standard/hypocritical answers in this vid as well as confusing xenophobia/extreme nationalism with racism
아--
Oh--
The view count speaks volume abt the broader Anglo Australian mindset. Anyone else is a sub-human to them"
fukin ni haoooo mate
This two Korean English is just sick
This is exactly why people laugh at australia
Why?
Because they say hello to the Chinese in Chinese? Lol
This is very moist and Butthurt. Lol
Sometimes people laugh only try to test how you react, they just a bored lazy non productive people and don't have better thing to do. It will shut them up if You just proud of who you are and said "stupid people" and to laugh them back with your friend very hard.

This is just cringe
Donald trump
Its not racist if its true. I only date asians... thats not racist...thats just your option to date and asians are not a race. RICE IS RICE Racism is about people not food.
Are you....? Did you just- what do you mean asians is not a race? No one mentioned food?
It’s not racist if it’s true? Sir....
He meant cutting out someone's culture based on their activities, language, customs etc.
How utterly wrong can you all be about whites dating only asians?! That's a personal preference born by attraction to a certain look or trait (like some black men liking fat butt's on women). You're assuming that white men want power over a meek asian woman (so you yourselves are branding your women as weak!) and are so blinded by you're own stereotypes of white people, you've deemed it impossible that attraction to their look and personalty is what they're after and not a meek little housemaid..
Yikes, the amount of stereotypes you've perpetuated in this comment alone.....You're proving everyone's points.
Yuck never ever dated asian🤮
Agree. I generally prefer to data Asian women because I prefer their femininity, family values and appearance. Does that make me racist? Not to any sane person.
@@scanspeak00 They are revolting and scheme to get men’s money
@@scanspeak00They aren't feminine lol. They have the most aggressive tempers of all women. Masculine flat bodies compared to white and black women. They look like yoda when they age and most that get westernised do not have strong family values and have mental issues. I've dated all races, even indigenous women. Speaking generally of course, but if I were a non-Asian dude, I would stick with my own or avoid asian women.
