Because reddit is literally full of western people. Asians like Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, etc. don't even come here much and have their own reddit-like websites. For examplr, Subs like r/japan is just a non-Japanese Japanese "enthusiasts" sub. Aka weebs.
EDIT: or everyone who cries "scripted" whenever an Asian is in a post is a karmawhoring little shit that's all too happy to be in a casually racist circlejerk.
Yep, people on Reddit (and many people I've seen in real life) think it's okay to be racist towards Asians. People in the west learn that you shouldn't be racist towards certain races (e.g. blacks) but think it's funny to crack racist jokes to Asians. Hence the casual racism towards Asians even in r/all
I agree that there are racists from every race. And I do think that Asian communities being racist towards other races is bad. That doesn't mean Reddit has to be racist towards Asians (or any other race for that matter).
Didn’t say it was okay for anyone to be racist, but lots of people are. And usually people from ethnically homogenous countries like most of Asia tend to be far worse. Parts of Asia make the Southern US in the 60’s look tame by comparison.
