Hi, Im a Korean teen living the best of my life. I was just on Omegle earlier tdy and I've gone through some difficult situations. In the time of 40 minutes, I have heard slurs about being Asian over and over again. Racial jokes such as "can you do my math homework" could crack a joke but these slurs I have heard were way worse. I have heard chink, spreading the eyes sideways imitating being Asian, swearing at me because of china causing covid (controversial) and etc. These actions were mainly done by people who were young( age 5~25). I want to point of few things for these people. First, the covid situation in your country is doing unwell because of your own countries restriction, and the Chinese people you have insulted about actually did a great job at restricting it (well done China). Secondly, the action of hate against southeast Asian people is also a type of hate. Referring back to last year about the black lives matter movement, this movement was started by how black people were getting discriminated against. People knew that this was a big thing since black people were getting mistreated since long time ago. Now we Asians are getting mistreated by others. And I don't think we deserve that. We all know that mistreatment is a bad thing referencing all those movements lately. Finally, please be aware that we get hurt too. I have really asked myself if being an Asian was a disgraceful thing. But I know it's not. I don't want to make this thing as big as a movement like BLM, I just want the people reading this to educate the people who are still unaware that these can hurt. -Thank you for reading
