i fucking hate the model minority myth because it completely erases the existence of asians (mainly southeast asians) living in poverty in america
#like ppl aren't even AWARE#like no one ever talks about it#and like yes the whole model minority myth is harmful because of the pressure it puts on asian americans in school#i know that too#but then you go downtown (aka chinatown aka little saigon)#and you see all these families living in poverty#and no one NO ONE ever wants to talk about it#because everyone just assumes that when you say asian you mean that one smart kid in class#but like AGHHGDSKJFKLSDJF#THERES THIS ENTIRE EXISTENCE THAT IS COMPLETELY ERASED#DESPITE IT BEING RIGHT THERE#AND Y'ALL MY TRANG FUCKERS GO TO OUR DELIS LOOKING FOR CHEAP LUNCHES#ASKING FOR BANH MI AND SAYING WOW LOOK AT ME IM SO EXOTIC I ONLY PAID $3 FOR A SANDWICH#BUT Y'ALL GOT THE AUDACITY TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE INSIDE OF THE DELI HOW ITS TOO SMALL TOO DIRTY TOO CRAMPED#AND IM LIKE UR A FUCKING SUIT MAKING A SALARY#DSKFJLSDKJFLSKDJF AHGHSGDKJFSKDLJLSDJSDL#LIKE Y'ALL LITERALLY COME INTO OUR LIVES ACTING LIKE U FOUND SOME EXOTIC GEM#LIKE WE WERE ALWAYS HERE??? Y'ALL JUST DIDN'T WANNA ACKNOWLEDGE OUR EXISTENCE#BUT HEY WHEN YOU CAN GET CHEAP EXOTIC FOOD THEN PSH WHATEVER#AJKSGDLKSDLSKDJ#AND THE WORD EXOTIC#DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED#WHEN Y'ALL START CALLING SHIT 'DELICACIES' IT GETS ME SO HEATED#IT'S NOT A DELICACY. IT'S LITERALLY JUST BREAKFAST FOOD IN THE HOMELAND#WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE#FUCK MY TRANG HONESTLY#oh shit what gets me heated is that we sell our banh mi for $5#and a white dude will come in and be like that's expensive i can get one for $3 in chinatown#and im like ROYALLY FUCK OFF
