When Singh finally sang – the roar of another WOKE ASIAN!

By Tej Singh, hosted by Rei Tanotsuka, 29 September 2020

“Men who live by laws and rules are parasites. Others shed their strength to bring these laws out of nothing into the light of day, but the law-abiders live at their ease—they have conquered nothing for themselves.” from “A Voyage to Arcturus” by David Lindsay

The following anecdote is a harrowing account of an Asian British brother, trying damn hard to submit to the propaganda that the Anglo West is a beacon of egalitarian bliss…. then he was bitten into an awakening. Who the fuck are we kidding? Irrespective of a perfected accent, loving baked beans on toast and keeping a stiff upper lip in all circumstances, WE WILL NEVER be a “real” Brit, Aussie or Yank. Why? Because we are the WRONG SHADE of stiff upper lip!

I have read Tej’s work and wondered why he was so lucid and willing to document the actual, on the ground treatment of Asians vs the phantasmal one many deluded betas subscribe to and vouch for EVEN THOUGH their phenomenological experiences do NOT adhere to the official slogan. So I asked him what and how many experiences did he have, to end up being as brutally honest and raw in telling his story, and this is what he said…..

Not one, but numerous. It took a while for me to process and make sense of it all… Then it clicked. Like a hypothesis that, whenever applied against an observation, seems to reliably explain the observed phenomenon.

I’ll list major ones in the hopes that it might be be useful or at least entertaining to your audience:

* Randomly attacked by 4 guys shouting racial slurs in a city centre while walking to get to the train station — though I got a couple of decent blows in myself (had been kickboxing since 7), I ended up with swollen face, blood vessels burst in my eyes, a HUGE swollen black left eye, and blood running down my right arm soaking my shirt sleeve because one of the guys bit my hand and tried to chew on it (had to hold it up in guard position the whole time). Ran to the nearest pub whose bouncers would let me in, the police constables arrived, exchanged words with the 4 guys who’d chased me (stopped outside by the bouncers, after they were smashing on the windows, shouting etc.) – constables TOLD THEM TO LEAVE, called me out and basically told me that I had no business in pursuing this further. I reached out to the city inspector with both constables’ collar number, he regurgitated the same words, saying that it was nothing more than a “drunk brawl”. At the time, I was a first year university student, no knowledge of lawyers that could have helped me pursue the case, not much cash, nobody to help, and I certainly didn’t want to worry my parents (who lived 4 hours away).

* About a year or two later, I overheard two cops in the middle of the SAME city centre talking about getting rid of their “paki” colleague. “Paki” is a racial slur used for all South Asians regardless of country – particularly Indians and Pakistanis (both of whom fought for the British during WWI and WWII, both were also major sources of revenue/produce during the wars, and labour from both countries helped rebuild Britain after the destruction of WWII). Thought to myself: “devious ungrateful bastards, now I KNOW this isn’t my country”.

* Training with a British army regiment, sitting through regimental history classes – the officer glorifying inhumane conquests as if it was the greatest thing that ever happened to “those people”. For me, as somebody of Punjabi/Sikh background, it happened to be the Battle of Sabraon – a battle that I actually knew a thing or two about. Also – the British army has a culture of propagating condescending racist material like Harry Flashman comics, etc. Officers de-humanizing muslims and villainizing Islam in almost all conversations. Recommended reading like ‘Junior Officer’s Reading Club’, regurgitate the same sort of intentional biases – albeit in a more readable/subtle way. About the same time, I also happened to be involved with ‘the Conservative society’ and saw the basis on which policy advisors and junior party leaders were groomed (racist dogwhistles with ‘plausible’ explanations actively encouraged).

* Random people at pubs finding every opportunity to single me out and try to pick a fight. I assume my presence must’ve been intimidating/threatening… All three times I happened to be the only non-White guy around, with a white girl, in a predominantly white area.

* Working in America, talking to “liberals” and realising their the same condescending bastards as everybody else, – just that their approach to ‘supremacy’ is more sophisticated, and their mannerisms more subtle when exerting aggression. I now basically see all liberals as passive aggressive white supremacists – passive aggression a necessity, considering their social and economic incentives.

* (Eventually) noticing that some of my “friends”, co-workers, and bosses at two of the companies I worked for would often try and pit or position me against other people of “foreign” decent (they were often East Asian for some reason – Chinese, and Vietnamese, respectively). It took me a while to notice that I was being an absolute twat and falling for the trap. Before I had met my Chinese colleagues on a personal level, I had a very condescending “western” attitude towards them that my white bosses actively encouraged.

* Working in China and realising how friendly and welcoming the people are, and HOW SAFE I FELT, I could walk anywhere/everywhere with my guard down… people interacted with me as if I’m their brother, tried to understand me and my perspective, introduced me to their families, it was beautiful… They were also shocked that, as a “westerner”, I was not critical of them or their government. I HATED the fact that they were embarrassed of their government instead of proud when interacting with me. I told them that their government was doing a great job compared to the west and they were SHOCKED!

* Noticing that every time the matter of systematic and institutionalised racism comes up, British MSM do their utmost best to give the most airtime to the individual whose narrative is built around DENYING any such occurrence as a complete and utter falsity, how “things are much better than they used to be”, the “world is a much better place”, etc.

I could go on…

SO…, when I see a Chinese or East Asian person go through the same thing TODAY. I get it… I TOTALLY get it.

So basically the first incident made me super-vigilant of peoples’ intentions. Over time, I learned to pick up cues, etc. For some reason I wanted to find “leverage” over people that I thought were “low class racists”, and realised during the process that it had NOTHING to do with “class” – there is a top-down solidarity and an unspoken-of understanding of mutual-benefit in preserving and propagating such racial and cultural biases, with the English man/English woman always positioned at the top – the “self-righteous (pansy) kings and queens of the world”. The political class and a significant percentage of the English upper class and bourgeois, no matter their political leaning, benefit as much from this as the “chavs” on the streets, and the middle classes looking for group to blame and victimise to vent their frustrations. It certainly explains the Meghan Markle debacle, systematic vilification of non-White British politicians – especially if they are critical of imperialist policies, etc.

Of course, every English liberal/bourgeois and moderate conservative to ever read such a post will exert additional effort to deny the existence of such a phenomenon.

  1. I also read Tej’s comment and was amazed by the lucidity and breadth of his observations and how much it mirrors my own experiences in Germany, down to rather small details that otherwise would go unnoticed, e.g. this mind-bogglingly shameless pitting of people against each other or racist elements in public service (police, universities, …) which basically delegitimize their own institutions. Realizing that much of society is rigged against you can be extremely disturbing. It’s like waking up to a never-ending bad dream. And having family that you care about makes it so much worse, because you realize their vulnerability. But then you realize that these experiences are not isolated, but shared by others and, in fact, by so many. Reading Tej’s comment, I also finally realized that I’m not just imagining these little slips and signals in social life and “everyday politics”, and I’m grateful for this as these things can really mess with your head. I wonder how many people out there are still trapped in their isolation…

    1. You would be another good guest writer because Germany is usually regarded as a “woke” country after WWII, it would be great to get a dose of reality from an Asian European.

  2. Having read the story of Singh, I have to say that I have had similar racist incidents in my past but now since I am much older and wiser and much, much more articulate and mentally equipped to deal with such racists incidents, I dare say racist acts against me are much much more subtle because I would not let any act pass without calling it out.

    Beleive it or not, in any argument with any White Supremacist, I already know what they will say before they say it and have an answer before they deliver the last word.
    My living in Australia is a pure hell,
    Why?
    After spending my entire life savings of $120K and legally marrying my Vietnamese wife, the Australian government called our marriage, false.
    Yet in ABC TV Q&A forums especially, their politicians continue their tirade against China for refusing to let a young Uyghur child out of China to join his father citing Human Rights abuse and making a song and dance about that.
    Yet, the same politicians think nothing of abusing my Citizenship and Human Rights of having my spouse and partner joining me in my last years of my life in what those bastards called, the “Best Country in the World”
    Every day of my life in this land is the same old monotonous repeats:
    Wake up, shit, eat, computer……..Wake up, shit etc.
    And they call this fucking living.
    Do these White Supremacists really understand the meaning of the term?
    I was born and grew up in Rabaul, PNG, an island Paradise if there’s any in the world and was happy and satisfied with life there but lo and behold, in came PM Whitlam, no doubt greedy to have his name in posterity as the one who granted Independence to the island nation.
    Before that event, the PNG government committee went around the country seeking the intentions of the tiny Chinese community what they wanted to do after independence and to a man, woman and child, we all said that we will remain in the country.
    But…………………………………………….
    Either through jealously of how well the Chinese people has made their lives in the country, Australia’s lawyers advised the emerging government to adopt the Malaysian Constitution as their guide to fashion their own and it is one of the most racist in the world.
    Overnight, all Chinese born in the country were declared persona non grata unless one has one’s father’s father born in the land, one cannot be an “automatic” citizen.
    The faking UN supposed to look after the human rights of all people just kept a blind eye and because it is Australia’s doing, it must be ok because the Aussie has garnered such a good reputation for fair dealing.
    Right?
    Fucking wrong and it still rankles in my throat to have to put up with being turfed out of my island paradise home.
    Today, I would ba lucky to have another ten years of my life on God’s earth yet the White man’s government who stole the land of Australia from the indigenous people in the first instance are acting like like fucking god’s in their own domain to pontificate who can and who cannot come to this fucking country.
    And so hypocritically criticize China for abuses of human rights which it itself commits without even acknowledging.
    As Mr Shakespeare would say, A fucking pox on all their heads and the heads of their families.

      1. Yes and please do.
        Australia has the hide to criticize China for human rights abuses but like to ignore its own sordid history.
        I like to call it out everywhere to show the kind of shame and hypocrisy it has been practicing for centuries if not for decades.
        This White Supremacy nation has no shame, no fcuking shame at all.

  4. Thank you for sharing Rei. Subtle messaging of white supremacy is ubiquitous in the west.

    1. White Supremacists’ sense of Entitlements, Primacy, Sensitivities in Australia is not subtle in the least.
      Its people, politicians and governments for centuries and decades past exercise their loose lips criticizing and demonising China at will and they call it their Freedom of Expression under their democratic system.
      However, when a Chinaman, the China Ambassador said one word of caution: “Consequences” should they continue.
      The whole fcuking Australian nation together with all its media howled: BULLYING!
      Australia gave itself the right to refuse Chinese investment on any pretext especially that the funds comes from government but it permitted Singapore government’s Singtel to operate Opus freely.
      Australia calls itself a democratic capitalist country which means money matters and nothing else but it uses any fcuking excuse to exclude China in any business operations but not accept China to do likewise to its investments in China.
      All Australia’s big fat mouths can scream the boycott of sales of important products to China including coal and iron ore; but when China refused to buy its coal and agricultural products, they in unison again screamed loud and long: BULLYING!
      As any one can see, these White Supremacists consider they do no wrong and whatever they say or do is ok but not for China nor for any other country to do likewise.
      They screamed at Chinese abuse of the Uyghurs Human Rights when China delayed the permission for one Uyghur baby to unite with its father in Australia but thinks nothing about its abuse and lack of duty towards other Australians such as Julian Assange, the most honest and upfront truth warrior in modern history and allow its Pommy forebears to torture and victimize him with Middle Ages Dark treatments.
      As for myself, who has obtained permission from the Australian Embassy in HCMC to legally marry my wife and obtained the official marriage certificate and after spending some $120K of my hard earned savings, finally said that my marriage is false and refused her to come to join me in the last years of my life in what its politicians called the “Best Country in the World” and…..
      Folks, if you will pardon my French, it is a Fucking Joke this Australian government is ruling under Scott Morrison aka as Scumomo and his monster Potato Headed Richard Cranium.

  5. Tej, I had similar experiences growing up in Australia as an Asian male. I never think about stuff too much so just accepted the fights I would always find, the racist treatment from “upstanding citizens”, etc etc.

    Maybe it’s my personality but I started making more trouble than I ever received. I instigated fights everywhere, terrorised and got kicked out of 5 high schools, did muggings, break-ins, vandalism nightly, even followed my friend into armed robbery and thrown in juvie, jail etc.

    I had a group of friends that looked up to me, had hot girlfriends and was generally feeling comfortable in this country. Like an idiot, I considered myself an “Aussie”.

    Every time I got into trouble, it seemed they still placed higher importance on my race rather than what I did. They wouldn’t call me thief or criminal, rather they would always call me “nip”, “wingnut”, “chink” etc.

    My friends would talk about other chinks and insult his food or whatever when they thought I wasn’t around. Most of my girlfriend’s fathers would visibly balk when they brought me home for the first time. When people talked about me I was always “that chinese fella” or “that chink bloke” etc.

    At first I didn’t care, just brushed it aside as I do everything else. But as I got older, it started to piss me off more. I realized I was always going to be seen as an outsider no matter how much better I was than them.

    I vehemently disagreed with immigrating, people leaving their own countries for better pastures instead of sticking around to help fix the problems. Don’t get me started on race mixing… Anyway I put my money where my mouth is and went to live in Taiwan.

    Turns out I fit in even less here since I grew up westernized. Luckily I never cared about fitting in, so I just do my own thing here. It’s funny how even in my own country, they still treat the whites better than their own.

    Only in Asia they pay higher salaries to foreigners than their own people.
    Hotel doormen bow when a white guy approaches, hardly gives a glance towards Asian guests.
    Whites can go in any shop and complain about something and the shopkeep will continuously bow their head with a dumb smile, basically doing the dog roll-over-in-surrender move. If an Asian starts to complain, shopkeep will talk smack back and kick him out.
    White guy sits in public drunk off his nut and insulting everyone, cops come with a smile and gently guides him to a taxi. Most of the time they could walk with head high and shoulder bump passersby with no danger of being attacked by locals. Only in Asia.
    After a concert white guy takes obvious advantage of a young girl who’s drunk off her face. He lifts up her shirt and fondles her breasts in full view of everyone while she lies comatose in his arms. Only in Asia, he wont get a beating.

    What I’m saying is the Anglos are certified violent, egotistic, self grandeurising assholes sure. But Asians make it too easy for them to step on. Not only are there plenty of race traitors, the trademark Asian solution is to keep quiet, take the abuse and hope they leave soon.
    The ones that are more prideful and stand up for themselves are really very rare.

  6. Here is my post last night which should be of interest to all people who are honest and just and especially to Chinese people who love their Motherland:

    Q: 23jan21: It is too obvious to see and it does not need a professor with a degree in semantics to realize the neat little trick Pompeo in his last throes as Secretary of State is going to give it all he’s got to make this final false statement the defining act of his career since being given the task as an “attack dog”, in a manner of speaking, by his boss President Donald Trump, and given carte blanche to gallivant the world bad mouthing China, he doesn’t want to go away quietly and peacefully.
    Pompeo is not a stupid person and he knows that even given his final statement of intent, he knows that his desire to attack China either verbally or militarily is not possible as no country is going to take his words as gospel, particularly since he has told so many porkies in his career.
    His last intentions to do a final trip to EU to spread more lies and opprobrium about China was rebuffed by Liechtenstein and France’s Macron and told they are not interested in any talks about China and that may also be a reason he is making the public statement from his home country.
    One must wonder and ask why that the West, which is so well versed in psychology that it cannot figure out the reverse effects of continued attacks on China will have the opposite results instead of building opposition, unite all the people to protect and ensure the safety of the Motherland.
    One would also think that with the continued “War on Terror” conducted by the US and its ruffled “allies”, that are bribed and “persuaded” to enjoin the US in its wars of aggression in the Middle East, Afghanistan and Iraq and elsewhere in the world, resulting instead of destroying its perceived enemies, helped instead in recruiting more fighters against the invaders, that the Hegemonic US would have realized that its centuries old policy of confrontation does not work.
    The US has persuaded and encouraged the Soviet Union to renounce Communism and become a Democracy but it still regard Russia as a most deadly enemy.
    Why?
    The embedded notion of the US that Communism is bad and it must oppose and eradicate it has remained the bedrock of US thinking and mentality foreign policy for decades and despite China showing no aggression and peaceful harmony with the world, this notion that it is bad and only the US form of government is acceptable will in the end be the downfall of this once great nation and power.
    It has forced Iraq and Libya recently to adopt the US form of democracy and yet it has not brought any peace, harmony nor prosperity to these nations as well as many others in the past and yet the US and its Western Cabal still cling on to their set ideas.
    So Pompeo is no more and has fast joined the ranks of the dustpan of history.
    Who in his right mind and which country save his own is willing to listen to his lies and more importantly willing to go and sacrifice their own young men and women who hasn’t had the chance to really smell the beautiful perfume of the roses, to go to attack China for his imaginary “genociding” the Muslim Uyghurs?
    If he and his country and Australia as its Deputy Sheriff are genuinely caring for the human rights and welfare of Muslims, why did they so mindlessly go and bomb and destroy their countries and cities and when they try to come to their nations as asylum seekers to savour their democracy, they were treated worse than lepers and criminals?
    Make no mistake that Pompeo said what he said and with the tacit agreement of Australia is to rubbish and demonize China in this manner to isolate and destroy her standing in the world of nations, since China is no longer the “Sick Man of Asia” and can no longer be cowed nor intimidated with guns, bombs and warships, verbal disinformation is the only ruse, he can use but……………
    One would think with the experience Pompeo has in dealing with world affairs, he should know that the truth cannot be hidden forever and sooner or later, the truth will be outed and revealed and that he will go down in history together with his master, Trump as the duo with spreading the most lies in the history of politics in the modern world.
    As the song goes:
    When will they ever learn? WHEN WILL THEY E—VER LEARN!
    To sum up in a single sentence:
    MR POMPEO IS A VICIOUS ATTACK DOG OF THE KIND THE GERMANS CALL SWINEHUND AND THE CHINESE, PIG-DOG WHO HAS NO CREDIBILITY, NO SENSE OF SHAME AND JUSTICE AND NO MORALS AND ETHICS.

    Q: 23jan 18: 40 – See what I mean?
    Quora keep pestering me to answer hundreds of questions and I have just posted a long and carefully crafted one to this question and posted it here and it has “disappeared” immediately it posted on the page.
    I got the message.
    The Quora Thought Policemen has alot to answer for.

      1. Thank you Rei. I admire your great writing and it is a pity the likes of Quora is so censorious.
        OK for the Western Media to keep touting their Rules based Order and Freedom of Thought and Speech but when it comes to people other than the White supremacists, that is a different story and all rules fly out the window!
        Such is the unequal world we live in and it would have been more acceptable if the World Hegemon and its stooges do not tell so many lies!
        Keep up your fighting spirit for equality and egalitarianism and be the voice of those who are not articulate enough to do so themselves.
        Richard
        26jan21 Australia’s Theft and Invasion Day means nothing to me or those who are victims and hurt.
