Racism on Instagram?

[Naiwen]

So I've been doing videos on Asian cuisine on Instagram for quite awhile. But today, I've had someone say to me to : "go back to China!" and the rest is censored. Must be a white supremacist. He has had the nerve to ask me why I'm even on Instagram.

Must be a white supremacist.

I hate to point this out, but racists come in all shapes and sizes, all races and creeds, sadly. I'm sorry you ran into one, but that doesn't inherently make them a white supremacist, and if they are one, then block them and move on because they're not worth knowing.

Anyone who thinks that something about them makes them superior to someone else is just plain wrong. We're all people. We are all exactly the same, we all have great things and we all have bad things about us.

I see a lot of racist hate on Facebook. People just don't care what they post they just post it. Sorry to hear it's happening to you.

Twitter/X is far worse for it.

Anyway @Naiwen, probably just a troll looking for trouble and has nothing better to do with his life. Ignore, block him and move on.

I wouldn't give these people the light of day Naiwen, I would just block them and move on. I would also report them too, now if this was on Twitter then it wouldn't matter if you report it since the moderation on the platform is a joke.

As long as Elon Musk is in charge, yes...

So sorry to hear you're dealing with this. People can be really mean!

It's so sad racism will never end. Don't mind the cunt.

I always hide some specific phrases that are racist in nature to hidden words on my Instagram account. With that, such racist comments never become visible.

Just ban. remove and report and move on, see soooo much of it and no point even stating a typing war

It's tough being a minority. Unless you're some macho man who can really let things rub off as it is nothing, it's going to be rough.

Well, I was in South Korea as a teacher. I was abused all the time by the population. OK. Where's my lawsuit money? 🙄 I could do similar things in my country to anyone and they could video tape it and it would be all over the news and they could get some big money, right?

But I was getting paid around 2000 USD a month for teaching in South Korea and with no rent or utilities or paying for the plane ticket, so that would make some think my story is being a crybaby. Yes or no? 🙂

Also I wasn't getting shot at in a war, but I had a real medical excuse at the time to not be in the military, even if I wanted to join, but I don't know if politicians could say the same. 🙂
