New video
So this video had to deal with Racism. If you followed me I've made 1 video in the past talking how racism has hit me in my life and how I dealt with it. But I deleted that video so to give you a brief summary of that video.
I grew up in a all white town. Being the only chinese kid in the whole town. I spoke english very poorly as my whole house spoke chinese. My first day of school it felt like you were a outcast. I remember no one even talked to me. I didn't understand anything about racism back then. I'm a kid just like everyone else why aren't they playing with me? I kept thinking to myself. Eventually I remember kids are kids and once the teacher puts you in groups those kids that avoided me started to see. That this chinese kid won't rip their heads off or get them sick and we became good friends. Playing with our batmans in the sand at recess.
Later in life you started understanding about race and how people don't like a certain type of person just because of their skin color. I remember the very first time I heard the word "chink" I didn't know that word so I thought it was just another slang word like bro. So that person that called me a chink thought it was okay and called me it infront of my friends. They didn't take kindly to that and had a good talk with this guy. Thats shows how far I came.
In life people grow and some things in life people will never understand what other feel or have felt. When I was in middleschool I fully understood racism by this point. So if anyone threw any racism my way I would turn it into a joke and humiliate them. If they push I push harder with the racism.
So heres a example of what I'm talking about. Lets say someone didn't know me in middleschool and came up to me and said you have small eyes. I would literally shout out loud so surrounding people could hear us. "Oh yeah thats a good one, I have a small penis too... and I gave a person sars." The person would walk away as they didn't want to make a scene but it was already to late I made the scene.
I found this being the best way of dealing with racism. Racism to me is a joke. As you hate on someone just because their skin colour is different thats just plain stupid. If thats not a joke I don't know what is.
Theres a lot of ways to combat racism. But I found this way worked for me the best. I'm not a shy type of person and I loved to see people reactions. So in highschool I just made racism into a bigger joke. With my racial jokes. Everyone around me or even hung out with me once has heard a joke. If I bring up the race card and your a racist what are you going to do? I already made the jokes. So thats why I joke around with racism in this video showing other how stupid racism/racists are , it doesn't mean anything more to me anymore.
P.S. I wrote this very fast. and it made sense to me whiel i was writing it but not everyone thinks alike so meh.
