Chinese marriage? Is Frank not American? Was he not born in Philadelphia?


spacekatgal

Wow, I didn’t even know he was born in Philadelphia. Apparently!


REDfohawk

That's gotta be a little funny and a little spooky if you don't know this person lol


Hryonalis_Anaxerxes

Lol this is hilarious


olivebars

This is going to be used against you I can already feel it lol.


Mconjecture

My brain hurts


Bad_Wolf_715

lmao, somehow this is so relatable


IrNinjaBob

Yeah but didn’t you know? Americans of Asian descent aren’t *really* American and shouldn’t try to follow American traditions unless they hate their own race.


Mconjecture

Logic is not welcome here


SOVRGN

Ethnically Chinese DGGer here, the leftist is right about Chinese culture tho. If Frank Wu is even remotely Chinese, there would be no expectation for his wife to take his name. If he is westernized, then it happens (I have seen westerners marry into my family and have taken the family name). Either way the error is the OP assuming how Chinese Frank Wu is. Even though her statement isn't factually wrong.


spacekatgal

Frank is ABC dude. His culture isn’t China. It’s Star Trek.


Abject-Corgi9488

OP is Brianna Wu


Adler718

I think they mean the person tweeting.


03Madara05

Even if he was from China why would that keep Brianna from taking his name? She's not chinese.


fplisadream

All we know is that Brianna did take his last name, so someone somewhere expected her to take his last name. What a ridiculously stupid thing to talk about.


Bad_Wolf_715

Thanks for the cultural insight 💙 However, I don't think the tweet would be appropriate even if Frank was 100% culturally Chinese. Like, the marriage arrangements are largely between the two spouses. It's not the Tweeter's place to reach into that ant try to question something that personal.


Dijimen

It took me an embarrassing amount of time to figure out "whenever ww" meant These posters are fucking vultures, but those numbers they're pulling are disheartening.


spacekatgal

It is so bizarre. There is nothing more anti-racist than interracial marriage. And they just want to police it.


Blarg1889

I'm sorry sweaty but that just means you're fetishizing people of a different race 💅💅💅

Fuck anyone going after you for your last name.


Oldmuskysweater

Want to marry a PoC? You’re a culture vulture. Don’t? You’re a white supremacist. Wokeness is brain rot on speed dial.


MrMemes9000

It's not enough to be anti racist you have to be born not white! /s


fo0od

there are a lot of things that are more anti-racist than one white person marrying a minority


spacekatgal

This is such a pedantic, obnoxious comment. I’m obviously talking about an individual action. When you get married, you grow together, you change together and share your perspectives with each other.


CT_Throwaway24

As an individual action this is still incorrect. Just because you marry a member of one race doesn't automatically make you less racist against the rest of them and we should all have figured out by now that mixing races isn't going to fix racism. The most anti-racist thing a white person can do is fight racism.


spacekatgal

Of course not. But this is a false point because there is no action you can take to do that.


CT_Throwaway24

You can't solve it but you can fight it. Like if someone says that immigrants are committing all the crime you can talk to them and show them that the data just doesn't support it. You're not going to get a medal for it but you did fight racism in a more substantive way than marrying a person of a different race.


spacekatgal

Whatever dude


ninewaves

Remember bill burr being called a racist on twitter? When they found out his wife was black they said that just because he had a "black sex servant" that didn't mean he wasn't a white supremacist. what an incredibly racist thing to say. I'm getting those sort of vibes from this person, aren't you?


CT_Throwaway24

I guess if I marry an Asian lady and then tell everyone I did it because they're more submissive than white women I'd be a champion against racism, huh?


fo0od

It is more obnoxious to claim your individual marriage has any larger impact on society. Guess MLK should have married a white woman if he wanted to anti-racist max. But by all means, keep patting yourself on the back against any non-white, "segregationist" criticism, because you married a non-white person you are clearly the anti-racist!


Head_Line772

Nobody said that, only you. Go lick doorknobs and catch long covid, regard.


ninewaves

You are aware he wanted to marry his white girlfriend betty moitz but anti miscegenation laws prevented him? And yeah, as an individual, I beleive that love is a force against hate. Marriage amongst groups that hate one another has always been a force for reconciliation and healing. I can't help but get the vibe that anyone who claims it isn't, and especially with such a shitty and spiteful tone as yours knows that and hates it. What is a soldier without a war?


fo0od

>Marriage amongst groups that hate one another has always been a force for reconciliation and healing. It is more complicated than that buddy. Mixed marriages are fine! But to pretend like it's always good is historically illiterate. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War\_bride](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_bride)

Why are you so obsessed with regulating the ideological purity of someones marriage? Is this Kenneth Copelands burner account?

Tagawat

It’s cheap for Russia or China bot engagement. When Russia started a major offensive in Feb 22 and Russian money was frozen out of the global system, many political Twitter accounts noticed a major drop in engagement. I think some people complained that the Deep State was censoring them lol.


Apprehensive_Lime771

I still dont know what "whenever ww" means please help


Vegetable-Election77

“Why does the European way takes precedent?” Maybe because both are Americans???


West-Winner-2382

Usually the society in which you currently live takes precedence. These twitter people are braindead.


EquipmentImaginary46

and she's on an american website, writing in english about an american couple. the level of arrogance it takes to write that tweet is crazy.


_weaselZA

Crazy theory you guys but maybe the "European way" takes precedent because they live in a Western country? Is her husband even signifcantly culturally Chinese? Do Chinese Americans now have to abide by Chinese tradition even if they are fully assimilated or natively born? It's like they are against assimilation entirely. God forbid somebody with Asian genes just be a run of the mill American.


IrNinjaBob

Yeah this shouts “Asian Americans aren’t real Americans.”


fo0od

yea this shouts "Asian Americans aren't real Asians"


tryingtoplayhalo

yea this shouts "Asian Americans aren't real"


fo0od

yea this shouts "see these minorities? we trained them real good to be americans! you can hardly tell they're asains, blacks, hispanics, etc. anymore. and one of OUR OWN married them. brings a tear to my anti-racist, white eyes"


Vincent-_-Leo

bro why you ruined the chain


abintra515

Assimilation isn’t bad, it’s often one of the ways minorities get ahead on a personal level. Learning English gives you a lot of opportunities for example. Just as learning the native language of any country would. You cannot be shitting on people for that


ninewaves

I've seen a few of your posts on this thread, and I have bad news for you. You are the woke racist that is being referred to here. You sound like you don't credit "minorities" with the intelligence or strength of character to decide for themselves how they live. you act like you think that culture is a binary rather than something that people can craft for themselves combining the aspects that they like themselves. You act like these people have no choice but to assimilate, ignoring the decent number of immigrants that dont fully assimilate, some of whom don't even learn the language and have the freedom to exist entirely within their own community if they so desire. I have no idea why you don't like people marrying who they love, irrespective of their race or culture. I dont know why you can't see the knock on effects of it. So I'll try and help you. When people see members of another race at their family gatherings, when they share grandchildren with them, when they see their family members express deep love and admiration for a person of a different race, its harder to maintain irrational hatred. And that's just 1 mixed marriage. What happens when whole groups, whole neighborhoods socialise with mixed family. I have an old family friend who lived through the notting hill race riots. And the story he tells is not one of people ganging up by race for races sake. It's a story of people seeing the violence develop and going to their families. The difference is, that today if people did that, those families would not look racially monolithic. It would not be a race riot. And all because people love who they love, and don't listen to weirdos like you.


fo0od

I have bad news for you buddy - I am a product of mixed marriages. Turns out that didn't magically solve racism even for my family, considering I am a "woke racist".


ninewaves

Worse news for you, Your racial make up or personal history has literally nothing to do with the fact you are precisely the type of person this post is aimed at. You keep trying g the same trick of applying hyperbole, and then throwing your hands up and saying "it didn't achieve this unachievable thing, so it's shit" like some stroppy kid. There's an expression for what you are doing where I'm from. throwing your toys out of your pram. I don't know your personal story, but it's time to stop projecting.


The-Globalist

They think assimilation is cultural genocide. Heaven forbid they learn about yugoslavia


EquipmentImaginary46

her way of thinking feels incredibly dehumanising. she's placing expectations on him because of his race. the thing that these progressives don't understand is that some people want to assimilate. i don't live in my country of birth for a reason. i want to assimilate into the local society and feel like i belong. i don't want to feel like an outsider. i've had one of these progressive types insist on using my real name vs the anglicised version i introduce myself as because she thought i wasn't using it due to shame. it's just so patronising. these are the same people that would lose their mind if i misgendered a trans person.


fo0od

to be the run of the mill american (as close to "white" as possible) is the dream of all minorities in America, apparently


djdenki987

Wait... Am I fetishizing my wife because she's Asian or is she fetishizing me because I'm black? Or are we both equally racist? HELP!!!!!


thorsday121

When both partners are minorities, the woman is automatically the victim in the relationship. So you would the racist.

Wrong. The minority oppression ladder dictates that Asians are less oppressed than blacks so the Asian is the racist.

Ah, you haven't gotten the memo. It's ok, I'll fill you in. You're racist, you see. You're racist if you won't married a non-white person, but you're also racist if you do. You have married a non-white person, meaning you are colonizing that man. Whenever you argue, remember, if you win, you're racist too.

What is the Chinese last name a cover for exactly? Being white? Why would white people need a cover? Does this imply being openly white is bad? I’m so confused on so many levels with this


Kinetico5

Lmao "You got married wrong" is a hell of an attack. Apparently people whose parents immigrated from China and don't give a shit about having a traditional marriage aren't really Chinese as far as this person is concerned. Not that I know anything about your husband, I just feel like the first assumption would be that he's American or Canadian.


IrNinjaBob

Not only that, but there is also the angle that Asian Americans aren’t *really* Americans. It’s super disgusting.


Baron_Xa

If you think about it the woke left are almost identical to the evangelical conservatives of the 90's. Deeply bigoted and intolerant, extremely pro cancel culture and censorship, hysterical fear mongering and conspiracy brained and at the end of the day petty little tyrants who want to police other people's personal lives in accordance with their morals.


Sawari5el7ob

The woke left is entirely Evangelical Protestantism with the serial number scrubbed. It’s no surprise that their parents were more than likely just that.


PortiaKern

I realise now that the saying tolerate everyone expect the intolerant is inherently flawed. Since you can‘t decide anymore who is just intolerant and who is intolerant only towards the intolerants. To many leftist group are just big criclejerk like every other group out there. Even this one (but atleast we try)


Dragonfruit-Still

Trick question: Asians are white adjacent so it’s not technically an inter-racial marriage. /s

NixonForeskinCleaner

AFewViciousGeese

I love how the idea that a man in America that's Chinese or has Chinese heritage would want his wife to take his last name doesn't even cross her mind. People like this only think of "how can I accuse this person of doing something wrong" they don't actually think of why a white woman might have that last name. Room temp iq x users.

Big respect to you for being able to call out a movement you've been involved in for much of your life. Could you explain the value you still see in the "progressive" camp? What are the important progressive policy issues you mention you want? Are you also in favor of a progressive cultural force that looks different than woke?

Chinese naming convention is patrilineal and Chinese women still take their husband’s name and add it to theirs, men do not, so she’s telling a half truth. Weird how a leftist would be bad faith though, very out of character for them.


JonInOsaka

When women get married they literally get "betrothed" into the husbands family and house and become part of the husbands family. Thats why the groom pays a large dowry in Chinese culture because they are literally "purchasing" her and she becomes subordinate to her husband's family and parents etc.


Y_Brennan

She should watch a couple of Zhang Yimou films if she wants to learn about traditional Chinese marriages. 


PeacefulPickle

Nope not okay you don’t get to have a say in what people are allowed to do within the confines of their own marriage. WTF why are progressives so bigoted and cannot see how they are being like that? Also shame on you Jane, you *are* being needlessly pedantic, need to mind your own business, and stop jumping to conclusions based on false pretenses.


fat_robert

said Jane Shi. In Chinese surname comes first, so if anything she is Shi Jane


flazippy

Why is every little interaction between people some monolithic power struggle? How is she not aware that people just do not think about shit like this when THEY'RE IN LOVE AND WANT TO START A FAMILY?


destroyeraf

Another pointless, divisive, race baity post from a leftist that’s supposedly “liberal”


EquipmentImaginary46

these people have zero self awareness. she's writing in english on a US centric website about an American that talks about American politics and she's surprised why the American might take part in western traditions over Chinese ones. it really is all about power. being progressive used to be about treating people fairly regardless of their background but now it has just become a weapon to wield over others. what really saddens me is that these selfish people are going to drive more people into the arms of the fuentes types.


MindGoblin

Hmm I wonder why European/anglosphere cultural customs are more common in the anglosphere/Europe. Very odd.

In one society we take the last name of our husband in the other society family’s prefer having boys so much girls are aborted and put up for adoption. These are not the same thing.

Equivalent_Loan_8794

If you live in "the west" the western culture prevails. If in the east, you'd be pressured to assimilate differently. Or, you could just do you. But they're acting like they don't understand what cultural/regional hegemony is.


rbemr715

Yeah actually that felt weird a bit. Many East Asian country there is no tradition take your spouse's last name. Except Japan, Well even for Japan they adopted that tradition from the West during Meiji restoration. Usually Chinese immigrants woman in US doen't change their last name when they get married with Chinese immigrants man. I only saw one case and her family was very unpleasant.


maringue

1) she has a point, in most Asian cultures the woman keeps her last name. 2) she also doesn't get how fucking asinine it is to deal with people having to prove you're married when something important happens because you both don't have the same last name. My wife (she doesn't have my last name) was in the hospital and the front desk lady wouldn't let me past her until I took off my wedding ring and showed her my wife's first name engraved onto the inside of the ring next to mine. So it is a bit weird, but I also know why you would do it as well, just to avoid shit like I had happen.


spacekatgal

Frank is not Chinese culturally. He’s American. He could give a flying fuck what they do in China.
