Asian Like Me

 “Let me summarize my feelings toward Asian values: Fuck filial piety. Fuck grade-grubbing. Fuck Ivy League mania. Fuck deference to authority. Fuck humility and hard work. Fuck harmonious relations. Fuck sacrificing for the future. Fuck earnest, striving middle-class servility.”
This isn’t the first piece of writing on the bullshits of Asian-America, but it’s the first cover feature on a prominent “non-ethnic” magazine (New York mag) I’ve ever seen. Via
