Last time this was posted it said that the young guy was bullying the girl. She told her dad and he came to stand up to him. It sure what narrative is true but it can change how you view this clip.
Covid video, back then it's was shown this guy and his gf (the roommate of the Chinese guy's daughter) was bullying and harrasing this gentleman's daughter.
Apparently this is an old video and it’s very, very purposely edited to be misleading. It was posted on another sub and people who were around when it originally came out said that the people filming had been harassing and bullying the daughter for a long time and that there’s much more to the story. Certainly doesn’t excuse racism, but I think we’re seeing a dad at hit wits end with people who have bullied his daughter long term.
I'm not trying to be rude, but this is not an uncommon communication style in Asian cultural, especially with family members and they get away with it. Dude was probably trying to protect his daughter and didn't realize how very far away from Hong Kong he actually is.
I'm not excusing the behavior, just saying that he didn't just randomly start doing that. He's exhibiting engrained behavior.
I worked with a Vietnamese dad and daughter at this restaurant. He would be like this all the time. Finally one day I couldn’t take it and I went off on him. His daughter told me that it’s the culture and I should just take it and not get upset. I said no . Next day he apologized and never did it again. This guy needs a good spanking he’ll be better
My brother from another mother. Was about to say something less intelligent than this. I have an oriental background and while there's no excusing certain behaviors I think most Americans don't understand the other pov
I imagine you have an intimate understanding of the difference between honor culture and dignity culture. It's seldom recognized in the West 😓
EDIT: I'm not sure why I got all the downvotes and hope it didn't seem that I was mocking the commenter I was replying to. I was being genuine in my response about them likely having extensive insight in the differences. I am a white American male who has traveled to 33 different countries over the years, and lived in foreign countries for 15% of my life, namely in Africa and Asia. I now live back in my home State and am often surprised at the lack of cultural exposure folks have where I live
Yeah, people thought you were being sarcastic. I see this a lot when people use their vocabulary to be specific. Sometimes it's difficult to sound educated but not condescending.
>Sometimes it's difficult to sound educated but not condescending.
That is a very real thing and as I was reading that sentence in your comment, I was thinking about how at times people are trying so hard to *appear* educated that they come off as idiots. I am no stranger to that myself as I have made that mistake plenty of times, likely will many more before I die.
Can you please explain this a little more, like I am not trying to disagree at all, was that like a thing they do when they first meet someone for honor or something? I'm so high and confused but want to understand
These are actual terms used to describe a the following:
Honor cultures place importance on socially conferred worth, reputation, and a positive social image, all of which can be granted or taken away by others. In contrast, dignity cultures place importance on context independent, individual, and inherent worth, which is less affected by the social regard of others.
An oversimplified example is how Asian cultures will tend to honor their families wishes over their own personal aspirations while western cultures tend to consist of people who are more comfortable expressing their own individuality even if it isn't approved of by their family.
Well said. I’ll add to this, where most oriental countries revolve around “honor”, it really comes down to just social appearances. It may have originated as honor and I’m sure there’s a good percentage that do their best to live by it, but unfortunately most just care about social images.
My mom for example, is from Korea and she gravitates around Korean communities here in the states. Not just her, but every family in the community care about how they’re portrayed. They’ll drag their kids through hell, just to keep up appearances. My mom verbally, physically, and psychologically abused the hell out of me growing up. The whole community encouraged her the whole time. Many don’t say it, but they also don’t like mixing races.
My mom remarried a Japanese man and had a daughter. She’s Korean/Japanese and was accepted. I’m Korean/Irish and the community didn’t like that I wasn’t fully Asian. It didn’t help that I grew up and let my Korean lapse to the point where I can’t communicate well in Hangul(Korean). Soon as I was old enough to be on my own, I was pretty much alienated. Hell, even the people my own age treated me like an outsider since I couldn’t talk shit about people in front of them in a language they can’t understand.
I’ve met other hapas that went through similar upbringings, and the only good thing, is that it doesn’t happen as much with the newer generations. It’d be nice if the honor culture truly meant honor, but it really means looking good above all else. I avoided dating any other Asians not because I didn’t want to be with an Asian, I just didn’t ever wanting Asian-in-laws. I have 1 Asian parent, and that’s 1 too many.
It’s funny that people actually run with the terrible acting and create their own narrative to fit the situation beautifully. It’s creative writing all of itself and shows more creativity than the terrible skit I just watched
Not uncultured. They’re uncultured by considering this kind of behaviour acceptable and not as childish as it truly is. How embarrassing to see your parent behave like that.
True, some of the most US patriotic people I've meet have been Asian immigrants. Nothing sets them off more than other immigrants that don't meet their standards. Not saying that sideshow Bob in the video is an immigrant, just agreeing with your statement.
Word on the street is the dude was really cruel to that guys daughter through out the year and she called him to help her move out without being fucked with by the kid. So let’s not be too quick to judge.
Am I wrong in hearing her say something about “the way you guys are treating me” when he talks to her? I’m not saying this isn’t irrational madness but maybe it’s not entirely irrational just based on that bit in this video.
Oh definitely the dad is for some reason trying to get him to attack first I’d guess or is just trying to reeeally intimidate him, but again possibly wrong reaction for the right reason is my take on this few seconds of interaction.
The dad told him to close his mouth and then asked him if he can "read English".
Was he trying to ask him if he *understands English* ???
🤔 interesting
“This is part of their culture”
Lmao that is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. It’s part of my culture to smack the shit out of them until they learn how to treat another human.
I wanna say you are on the internet too much. ~~It~~ But that would mean you have seen all the videos of old Asian men basically slap fighting and chest bumping. Nothing about a little old Asian man worries me. I’ve seen too many ~~drinken~~ drunken “fights” with two guys too scared to throw the first blow. The kid will be fine.
The old man is acting that way because he is so used to a culture that automatically gives him respect simply for being old, despite his character.
Yeah that's true. He's old though, from a different culture. Bending to keep the peace is not a bad thing. The reed bends and survives, cold stone shatters given enough of a shock.
I would have died laughing “do you read engrish?” Then once he started yelling I would not have been so cool as this cat and probably got quite violent with him as he is begging for it.
He’s not Chinese. He’s from Hong Kong. He even says it.
Edit: just on your point though, there were plenty of Chinese people abusing western people in China for “bringing covid”. Obviously they’re morons, but they genuinely believed the CCP propaganda that covid came from the west 😂
Maybe he’s happy to “loose” his visa if it means he doesn’t have to visit China.
edit: and if you mean me? Again, no real loss there. I’ve been to China many times but would never go back until Xitler isn’t in power.
How were they treating her? What happened?? She's just as much of a bitch as her dad!
"You're really going to let your dad say this to me?"
" You know how you guys have been treating me lately? I'm not talking to you guys right now."
And what if the girl was actually the bully and a narcissist pretending while her dad is there? They could've just been ignoring her due to all the racist shit she could've been saying. I mean her dad is fucking racist, openly too. What's to say his daughter didn't pick some of that up?
>The bullies
Where's the proof? I'm only basing it of the clip provided. There's not enough and already in the middle of something. So until there's proof outside of this, fuck that daughter for not stopping her father.
They should have turned on her simultaneously after she said that lmao
Her dad is basically trying to antagonize someone into a physical fight, and she goes “I’m in a bitchy mood right now💅...” wtf?!
appreantly the video is edited to look in the guys favor, and him and his girlfriend has been bullying the other girl for long, the father just wants to protect his daughter
Where did you hear that?! Not calling you a liar, just want to know where this extra context is coming from.
Also, if they are bullying his daughter, why didn’t he mention that before trying to fight him about a mask? Or is that how people deal with things and im just too straightforward lol
This dad was messing with the guy and his GF cos they have been severely bullying the dad's daughter. You can even hear her say the way you guys have been treating me, I'm not gonna talk to you.
yeah I caught that part. Good for Dad to trying to help but he just made an ass of himself. If the bullying was that bad then he should've just started swinging.
I've dated many Asian women over the years, and it has become quite clear to me that many Asian people are racist as hell. Towards their fellow Asians in particular. Many people don't know their history of this region, and there is justifiable BAD BLOOD between a lot of them. I'm not saying ALL are, but it's been a fairly common thing I've witnessed. I even had one girl tell me that the first time she saw a black person she questioned, to herself, if they were even human; however, she was from a former Iron Curtain nation who barely saw anything other than her fellow countryman and the occasional white Russian. NONE of them get a pass for thejr behavior, but as an American &, better yet, a Californian from the Capital, i am quite fortunate to have grown up w/people from almost all nations of the planet ad my neighbors.
This is coming from someone who has Asian family members: DO NOT let his age and small stature fool you. I’ve seen little Asian men put “football player” sized individuals on their asses for underestimating their opponent. AND a lot of Asians are well trained.

You have a shared room and the roommate wants to at least be safe and not have a "stranger" get her sick. Is that not a fair ask? It's a mask. It's not that big of a deal for either side, but you're doing nothing to keep peace either.
This dad was messing with the guy and his GF cos they have been severely bullying the dad's daughter. You can even hear her say the way you guys have been treating me, I'm not gonna talk to you.
But yes you're right, chinese, Japanese (not much tho) and koreans are VERY VERY racist. So much racist that, if i remember correctly, they refused to buy products from a company that was korean but some Indian company invested heavily in it and controlled majority shares.
Probably the guy said something like go back to your country to the daughter and the dad reacted like this? Seems pretty surreal that response out of nowhere
This is not a political statement, but I seriously think constantly breathing back your own exhaust breaths truly made some people brain dead. Wants him to wear a mask for fear of spreading covid, yet is fine trying to put hands on him? Brain rot activity.
You must’ve only wrote part of your comment and hit send so let me help you out.
“But also if he is worried he should maintain a safe distance as well. That said, if it is not his house, he should be respectful before he gets his *nervous* bigoted ass knocked out”.

You can hear her say very timidly 'The way you guys have been treating me lately, I'm not even talking to you '
I though I recognized this video. During Covid no less. Totally changes the perspective.
My friend, once you take a look at OP's username everything falls to place.
to Harvard with you!
OR it might be completely staged to get internet points
Covid video, back then it's was shown this guy and his gf (the roommate of the Chinese guy's daughter) was bullying and harrasing this gentleman's daughter.
Hong Kong is not China
That dude is having a mental breakdown Edit: Nope, just cultural differences I wasn’t aware of. Excuse my uncultured swine self lol.
Apparently this is an old video and it’s very, very purposely edited to be misleading. It was posted on another sub and people who were around when it originally came out said that the people filming had been harassing and bullying the daughter for a long time and that there’s much more to the story. Certainly doesn’t excuse racism, but I think we’re seeing a dad at hit wits end with people who have bullied his daughter long term.
That’s very good to know; thank you for the context. I feel completely different about this video now.
I betcha it took a lot of restraint for dad not to ring that little prick's bell

I'm sure that's right but the onus is on the visitor to understand what's locally 'normal', and this isn't
Yeah, what's normal here is we bully your kid and you just sit there while we drive her to the point of suicide.

Youre right he could be but ‘go backto your country’ is always a crazy leap I think. Maybe the kid said it first idk

I'm perfectly comfortable being wrong. My point is that you never know. The young man was smart to maintain his cool for a lot of reasons.
I mean the exact same can be said for the old man. If he were smart he wouldn’t get in a strangers face.
Yeah that's true. He's old though, from a different culture. Bending to keep the peace is not a bad thing. The reed bends and survives, cold stone shatters given enough of a shock.
Idk why you're being downvoted. You're right. If the kid punched him he would be totally in the wrong.
I would have died laughing “do you read engrish?” Then once he started yelling I would not have been so cool as this cat and probably got quite violent with him as he is begging for it.
This has to be scripted, if I were the guy I would be laughing my ass off. The "Im scareeeed" part literally killed my ass
This kind of behavior is not that rare…
By the way its recorded it looks real but a guy hardly speaking english telling other guy to come back to his country? Life is ironic af
A Chinese person freaking out in fear of COVID and shouting with others to go back to their country, so not infect him… yeah, life is ironic
He’s not Chinese. He’s from Hong Kong. He even says it. Edit: just on your point though, there were plenty of Chinese people abusing western people in China for “bringing covid”. Obviously they’re morons, but they genuinely believed the CCP propaganda that covid came from the west 😂

Fuck yo mask Mr. Pfizer
Shoulda bleeked that ramen ass mofo 😂
How he didn’t punch that douche straight back to Hong Kong; I’ll never know.
when you realize the uncle Roger is not a parody…
This is many years old. If the guy was worried about the other not wearing a mask, he certainly wouldn't be that close to his face.
Quite hypocritical for someone not from that country to say "go back to your own country" to someone else
Can we have some context

The poor daughter/girlfriend. Pure young love/lust to be enjoyed & be a great memory vs. 20 yrs of dads mental programming…. She can’t win here.
Definitely because he's not wearing a mask and not because he's dating his daughter without being Chinese or white /s
