does the guy _know_ Korean or anything about Koreans?
It's not so much having facts that gets people on your side, and it's the fact that you're not the guy who doesn't have facts
or is he just stroking it to the idea of not giving a white woman animony?
@Salo Saloson He's in the Korean club.
He's a bit of a weeb.
that level of xenophilia is creepy
full offense intended
I know right? He's still a cool guy though. He's not one of those white misfit weebs.
@Hakujin - CA Is your friend overweight and depressed? I am asking because in my experience most of my friends who ended up marrying non whites were kind of ..."unattractive, overweight, with low self esteem" who felt that they would never be able to date a white girl (or guy) and so they start chatting with someone in the Phillipines or Egypt and they "fall in love" over the internet and then eventually they fly the person to the US.
@Grayson No.
hmm bummer
My kid in my case isn't an outcast or anything either, tall fit kid, normal all around but just has a constant hard on for Korea, everytime we talk about anything cultural he always has to say "Well in Korea..."
Just realized.. with this NPC meme.
The left says it’s dehumanizing, but haven’t they been calling us russian bots for the past two years?
@fgtveassassin He's not that Xenophilic. He does have an interest in Japan and Korea though.
white people with low self esteem often give up on white people because they know that someone from - say the Philippines - will make them feel special even though all they want is to move to the US and think all Americans are rich and will spoil them. Sad how some of them get manipulated. once they bring the other person over to the US, the marriage usually falls apart but by then they might have a Visa through their marriage
He's only 18. I'm sure I can talk him out of doing such a thing.
Or so I hope.
Yeah there's no changing this kid's mind at all, he wants to be an F1 driver (no fault for having big aspirations by the way) and he's going to marry a K-pop idol
I mean, I'd tell him that Korea is a pretty different place than he imagines
... I'll say this much: his aspirations are male as fuck
@Deleted User Look, I agree that we should find ways to explain our positions that appeal to emotion, but if we just outright ignore research we're going to end up looking like retards. People will inevitably ask for sources for our claims, and we'll be laughed off if we just respond with platitudes.
We're going to sound like those Trump fanboys who always talk about Kate Steinle or whatever and then just stutter and trip over their words when someone brings up the statistic that immigrants commit less crime.
beats the shit outta me wanting to win a Pulitzer and a Nobel Prize in Literature
@fgtveassassin That was a joke?
There's a reason the "dumb Trump supporter" stereotype exists, and it's not entirely because of unfair media portrayals
My thing? Not at all
@fgtveassassin You think he can't be dissuaded?
@Jacob Who cares about crime. How about the breakdown in community cohesion?
I've tried, but he says he's deadset, he wants a nice traditional woman, which he thinks he'll never find in white women and only in qt asian gfs, he's a great kid all around other than the wanting a qt asian gf though
I don't disagree with you, but, "immigrants commit less crime" is a pretty strong talking point that we should be able to respond to
I think he should go to Asia and meet some actual Asian women
@Salo Saloson Maybe.
either he'll figure out that, "hey, maybe the people who eat dogs aren't the kind of people I want to be in bed with"
or he'll realize, "maybe them white women aren't so bad after all"
I don't he'll realize until he sees, in person how xenophobic Asians are, if I bring it up know he goes "Well there's a lot of American influence in Korea now so obviously they don't hate America " its frustrating honestly talking to him about anything cultural
sounds like he needs to go to Asia for a week or two
He's 18. He'll get over it.
@fgtveassassin He'll probably study abroad in Korea or Japan. That will give him an idea. Not if he's in Tokyo though.
I would give advice, but...
Yeah I need to basically just remind myself that not every is as spergy as I was in high school with this stuff
We're both in college.
@DeusVolk ...
