I think she could dead the whole thing with: "I thought it made me cool. I thought it made me funny. I wanted to be part of the culture any way I could. But it was dumb and I'm sorry". Then hide out from Twitter for a month and everyone will forget.

"It's multi-faceted" is not the way to go :stopitslime:

But maybe she's planning to do it again? Most of her laughs in Ocean's 8 and Crazy Rich Asians were based on the blaccent. If they make sequels, she might have to.

Her show just started the second season so i'm interested if the numbers improve it dip bc only cacs watch it.

She's definitely gonna hide out for a few weeks. Personally I do t think it's gonna change anything bc cacs think it s funny.

I wrote it off as an asian girl from nyc who has been around. Ive met plenty. Even the habbibi at the bodega talk with a cent from the neighborhood.

but the way she answered and how her whole persona changed, made me think its all for show.

fukk her whole schtick. It aint even that good of a imitation.

The problem persists because there is no Asian American culture or identity.

Black Panther came out, Black People criticized it for what it may have missed but we all felt it. Caribbean’s didn’t ask for their own BP. AA’s didn’t ask for a BP. Afrolatinos didn’t ask for a BP.

Shang Chi came out and I seen Philippinos n sht saying they want theirs. Raya came out and people said finally South East Asians is on. Almost all the Asian representation in media is Chinese and China dont fukk with them.

They discombobulated af and until that’s reconciled within their populous they’ll all individually borrow from larger, more established American cultures and more often than not, follow the path of least resistance which is why Black Culture is appropriated so heavily.
