the key point from that article is:

"Asians have long suffered negative stereotypes. Docile. Meek. Submissive. Insulated. Unworldly. Unworthy of respect."

At the end of the day, it is the difference in the upbringing that clearly demonstrates why Asian Americans are absolutely, just simply, weak.  And members of this forum have already demonstrated that to me.  That Asian parents of 2016 will also continue to perpetuate the problem into the next generation and so on because none of them, have the audacity to do anything about it, because all they care about is work and money.

Different definitions of "weak" Yes I was brought up with the Asian tradition, study hard, word hard, make money, be successful and you will gain respect...call me weak but I'll tell my kids the same thing...My definition of "weak" as an Asian American is someone who doesn't make enough money or someone who doesn't improve themselves.  People who don't own houses, live with parents, carry credit card balances, don't have savings, resort to violence to make ends meet, live paycheck to paycheck, pay rent, complain about not making enough money, wait on social security benefits to "retire" at 60+ instead of creating your own recurring income, fight for minimum wage to increase

It's not a racist point of view, but many families are brought up differently...where being feared is getting respect and do acts of violence to increase their street credit (black americans/Asian gangs/white/Hispanics) it's not just one race that does it...I know you keep mentioning the common stereotypes between blacks/Asians/whites but that's not the whole picture

We have different definitions of success and different definitions of weakness...much of it by how you were raised.  I'm sure most rich athletes of different sports (NFL/NBA) aren't telling their kids "Momma didn't raise no fool!" They have too much to lose and are taught early to study in school and hone a skill to make money and not resort to acts of violence or be a gang member (surprise surprise: like Asians) so it's to me much more a socioeconomic viewpoint than a racist view point

So yeah in the off chance I get confronted one day and get called "weak", I'm going to laugh it off because I'm more successful than them, they aren't worth my time: I got a nice paying job, investment property, car I own, and savings for kids before I hit the age of 28...I'll tell my kids the same thing again right into the 2016 generation and tell them to be more successful than me
 
@bangbros - cmon man, asians don't stand up to anything cause you guys average like 5' 4" and 105 pounds dripping wet.

MMMN!!  I thought all asians that study hard become doctors and according to previous posts, at Age 28 all you have is DEBT >:D
 
BB J1zz is correct, whites make fun of Asians because they know they can get away with it because they know Asians won't do anything. Make fun of Jews, you'll never work in America again.  Make fun of Blacks, you'll get a bullet in your head.  Make fun of Asians, no problem.
 
Watch the documentary on Netflix "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" about DJ Steve Aoki. He comments how Asians in general don't voice their opinion whereas other minorities are quite vocal.
 
Where is the racism exactly in that comedy bit?  There was a bit of ignorance, but racism?

IMO, the only people who are offended are the people who are going out of their way trying to be offended.  And because you got offended, doesn't mean it's racist.

Asian American NY Times Editor harnesses the power of his media platform and social circles to expose narrowmindedness and bigotry.
http://gothamist.com/2016/10/09/its_2016_racism_in_manhattan.php

Its gotten picked up on CNN, NY Times, Gothamist, Facebook, Twitter.

There are more and more Asians who have grown up in the country who are not afraid to say something and have access to significant professional and social capital (compared to their immigrant parents) enabling them to get the word out.
