Asian Parents Defending “White Privilege”
Post Body

So my Vietnamese parents are extremely conservative (like Newsmax-level) and have always been very “pro-white”/get mad every time “white privilege” is being “impeded” upon (eg a minority, even an Asian one, having a role in a movie). Recently, it’s gotten worse ever since my sister got married to a white guy. Hell, whenever they hear a harmless joke on TV making fun of white people (eg SNL saying a white woman doesn’t season her potato salad), they get pissed at me and tell me to change the channel (but when there are jokes about other races they laugh their assess off).

So my question is, in the event they have an argument with me, what’s the best way to tell them to stop being so hypersensitive/also tell them they’re being brainwashed? Even many of my white friends are confused about why they’re being so sensitive lol.

EDIT: also my future bro-in-law’s parents are from TX and they are also very ultra-conservative (like Newsmax-level, deny BLM, etc). Do you think HIS parents will EVER see my parents as equals? I’m just waiting the day for his parents to say something STUPID AF and looking forward to going off lol
