0:05 Okay, you guys are all familiar with different stereotypes. We've talked about so many times on like what the Chinese stereotype is, what the Japanese stereotype is, Vietnamese. What are some things that you would like your culture or ethnicity to stop doing before it becomes a known stereotype? >> I mean, I love stereotypes. I think there's truth to it and that's what makes it fun. And Hawaii, the culture is teasing everybody. That's That's like how we did grow up. We teased the Portuguese, the Filipinos, the Chinese and like that's what brings us closer together. And nowadays, you know, people are so soft that like you can't say these >> ████ >> Yeah. >> Yeah, that's true in Hawaii. Like you can make hella racist jokes to each other. >> all being racist towards each other and that's okay. Yeah. >> Like it's all sensitive here now. >> Yeah. Like usually you're you're the first people to know the stereotype. >> Oh, like what I don't want
0:55 >> to other races and they go, "Oh, Japanese people all do this." >> So you're talking about what pre-stereotypes would you want to act What do you want to x out? >> The thing I'm thinking for Filipinos is like I'm really ████ hoping that like so there's this internal stereotype that like Filipinos run uh health care home scams. Like I've known that my whole life. Not other >> internal? >> No, well, a lot of people don't know that. >> Like I've been knowing nurses is external. The scams is probably internal. >> Thing that average person's going to go, "Oh, you care home scammer." That doesn't exist. But like in Filipino culture, like everybody knows that that's like a problem. So like it's I just saw like you know like during all the Medicare fraud stuff that's been coming out, they started catching more and more Filipinos. And I'm like, "Oh, s███." Every time I
1:46 see another one on the news, I'm like, "God damn it." >> Like a pre-stereotype for Chinese would be uh that the parents don't love their kids. >> That's the pre-stereotype? You don't think white people know that Chinese families are operate that way? >> I don't know if I care if what other people think about that, but but I think everyone thinks that Chinese parents are normal and they love their kids. >> Oh. Do you think that? Do you think Do you think >> I never thought that. >> You already knew they don't love their kids? >> people think that? >> I don't think people that the whites generally know that. >> See? >> I think that I have a unique perspective cuz I'm surrounded by Asian people all the all the time. >> Well, Stanley Wong's mom seemed like she loved him, right? >> Well, but see, that's kind of how all the kids in our neighborhood were treated, the same way. It was like all the parents were kind of hard on the kids in the neighborhood. >> Oh, okay. >> Yeah. >> There's got to be I think there may be Yeah, that's a pre-stereotype, but I'm sure there's some kind of stereotype
2:37 with like when you when you're a kid and I I know like every classroom, the stereotype is that the Chinese kid is the smartest kid. >> Oh, for sure. >> In every like state there is in in the US. >> ████ Indians came? >> That kid's not smart because he like usually he's he's smart like that because his parents make him to be that smart. He's like He's like forced to be >> Cultural. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, maybe it's maybe it's like kind of on the border then. >> Yeah. >> You want that to change? How could you change that? How do you think you could suppress it? >> I just want the Chinese parents to love their kids. >> So, you want you want the stereotype to be a misconception. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. >> Like, oh. >> from his parents. >> I think they love their kids. >> Oh, man, you your mom has to love you her way only. >> I know. >> But I don't think they do. I think they >> boxes? >> I didn't like oh, I want to have kids. >> OH. >> HEY, SHUT UP.
3:28 >> YOU DON'T LIKE THAT. THAT'S RIGHT. >> BUT that is that not Japanese, too? Or is that just mainly Chinese? >> ████ dude. I don't know. I just grew up ████ up, so I can't represent Japan. >> That's true. But is there like any deep cut Japanese-American stereotypes that you know that are like >> Okay. I >> Hope you guys stop doing this before >> Not Japanese-American, but right now Japan's hella romanticized cuz everyone's traveling and vlogging there, right? It's overly romantic. >> And they completely ████ miss what's being said. Like there's a lot of trans like missed in translation. When you go there, right? People go, "Japanese are so ████ nice. It's so polite." They're actually mean as ████ But they you don't know that they're actually like >> Oh. >> Passive like >> Passive aggressive? >> No, they're like insulting your ass with kindness, but you're too stupid to understand. Like for example,
4:20 let's say um your neighbor will greet you in the morning, right? And then you're like, "Hey, how's it going?" Yeah, he goes, "Hey, dude. Like you guys must have had fun last night." Like, "Yeah." "Dude, yeah. I heard like you had kids laughing and like you can you have such a lovely family. Like they're having a great time." That's a subtle way of saying shut the ████ up. >> yeah. They they say it in a certain way. >> But then foreigners would be like, "Yeah! YOU'RE SO NICE! YEAH, LIKE WE HAD a great time!" >> Right? Well, that's like Curb Your Enthusiasm did a bit on this. >> Oh, really? >> Where the Japanese maid or deal whatever was apologizing for like the soup spilling out of the bag when they gave it to him. So, he's like he said sorry and went like this. And then the guy was telling another Japanese guy like, "Oh, the guy bowed maybe like this many degrees." And the Japanese guy's all, "S███ bow." >> ████ the bow? >> That's a ████ It's like an insult bow, but like it looks the same. Yeah, it
5:11 looks the same to like a white guy. >> Insult bow? >> Yeah, apparently. >> No, they're ████ mean. So, like people go, "Oh, they're so nice." right? Imagine like every ████ is a Karen and they can't wait to rat you out to the Gustavo. Like everyone like in your They will never confront you to your face. But everyone ████ if you do one thing off, like let's say you like you're you live in an apartment and then they know that you're the ████ that didn't close the lid correctly. Everyone's going to hate you now. >> try to wreck your ████ >> Yeah, because you were the only one that didn't close the lid correctly now, not only did everyone hate you, now they're going to bully you. >> like a big HOA. >> ████ yeah, dude. Bully though, they're going to bully with like a whole of you must have a good time, Alaska. >> I know, right? It's all nice. >> What are you What are they going to do? Just >> They'll keep report No, they'll keep
6:01 reporting you. >> Reporting. >> You just won't know like why s███'s like being vandalized. And then like >> You're not going to know why your life is harder. >> Yeah, like Ryan style. >> That's where the it comes from, ninjas. >> Yeah. No, you'll see ████ vandalized. You'll see ████ like ████ up and you're like, "Why did someone slash my tires?" You know, like Yeah. >> What the That's a Dude, that's a really good one. >> And everyone will come up >> Still the best kind of society. >> shows up and they're like, "Oh man, that sucks. Like someone slashed your tires." And it's like >> You did it, ████ So, when you see like when there's a thing on the news that shows, "Oh, at this uh soccer game, all the Japanese people in attendance cleaned up for everyone." That's really them saying, "You dirty ████ We got to do this ████ for you." Like >> But also ask them like one-upping each
6:51 other. >> Oh. >> clean this ████ Oh, no, I You know how like they fight for the bill and like a like it's like Think about it that way. So, like everyone's fighting for the bill cuz they actually want to be big dog, right? So, then they Imagine that every ████ day. That's why everything's orderly, everything's clean. Like that's It's not what you think, right? So, you come in they're like, "Oh, these people are so honorable and good." But if the reality is like they're just ████ vicious and one-upping >> pre-stereotype got out, it would shatter the image. >> Yeah. >> It's that way because THEY'RE ALL NAZIS. NO WONDER HITLER LOVED THEM SO MUCH, RIGHT? >> DUDE, I didn't know the cherry blossoms things was was such an a huge tourism event. >> Yeah, it's cool. >> Yeah, sakura. >> Yeah. Did you like it? >> Well, all the every ████ on Instagram was sharing that ████
7:42 There you go. It was everywhere. >> What's a what what is there any like do you know any white stereotypes that are about to come out? >> I think they're all out. I think they already got out, yeah. We we got a lot of attention. >> Yeah. >> Last couple >> You're well represented. >> Yeah. Oh. >> I feel like it's it's like a thing where it to the general public white people nowadays seem more prone to like self-hatred, >> That's true. >> I think a lot of that is is uh it's it's false. I think that's going to get out. I think the self-hatred's performative in a lot of ways, yeah. >> course it is. Especially when people are the self-hatred is just on social media. >> Yeah. But it's like the way that they move in general doesn't match how they say they are apologetic for all like like oh sorry that I invaded your land. I'm not leaving by the way, and I'm
8:32 going to make generations here. >> Yeah, well that's that's how it always is. >> Yeah. >> It's really funny, but they're the only ones really apologizing openly about all the things >> That's true. >> still doing. >> I mean that's the thing I guess that colonizing is our thing, but then that's everybody did that. >> Yeah. You know what I mean? Everybody did that. But not everybody's saying >> We owned it for sure. >> But not everybody's like saying sorry every day for that, which is hilarious to me. >> But they should, right? >> They better say sorry. >> What's the what's the new Vietnamese stereotype that's coming around the block? >> Vietnamese okay. Um this isn't a new one. This is a age-old secret. Uh obvious Vietnamese stereotype. Vietnamese ████ are ████ crazy, dude. Don't get with them. Run away, right? Everybody knows this. Do you think everybody knows this? >> I grew I grew up knowing that. >> Yeah, everybody knows it. >> in the Asian circle you do, but slightly outside I don't think you do. >> Well, white people they anything
9:22 exotic-looking, so that's okay. That's okay. They're going to go for it anyway. >> Sure, yeah. >> Well, that's my fetish. >> But man, it's a lie, dude. Vietnamese ████ are actually the best, and we don't and we don't want them we don't want them leaking out, you know, and ████ diluting our bloodline and stuff like that. So that's why we say that. We put it out. But, these girls, they sacrifice themselves. They're soldiers to the cause. And they actually go out there and they're indoctrinated into it at a young, innocent age. And they're just like, "I have to do this for my culture and my country." And they go out there and they ████ ████ to people just so they could be like, "I need to preserve the the ████ sacred virgin bloodline and ovary section to keep within the Vietnamese men." Yeah. And we don't want people to know that mainstream. >> How come you didn't get with the Vietnamese chick, then? >> I wasn't good enough. I'm half Chinese. It's not pureblood. I'm not pureblood. I'm actually 100% Chinese, kind of. Yeah, I'm not really pureblood. I I identify as Vietnamese.
10:12 Um the Chinese one. There's also a Chinese one. Don't No, Japanese people are Jewish. >> You keep calling each other Jewish. >> If you gamble like you're >> He has a He has a fake name. >> I gamble and I drink like I'm I'm Vietnamese. >> Culturally Vietnamese. >> And I I'm more Vietnamese culturally than I'm Chinese. >> Ethnically Chinese. >> Yeah, if I was really Chinese, I'd probably like have a lot more money. I'd probably have a lot more children. I'd probably uh treat my parents a certain way. >> Would you not love your kids, too? >> It's not about that. Making sure it keeps going. That's all. >> just have a lot of kids, but >> And then it's also you do it and then it's like, "When I get old, you have to take care of me. It doesn't matter if you like me." >> Everything's too deep about love and his kids. >> Yeah. >> like Chinese people are just very utilitarian. Everything is just like >> The stere- The stereotype for China that we don't want to get out there is that there's clear stereotype also around the
11:03 world. Chinese people are kind of like a virus where they just go somewhere and they multiply. They multiply like the host body and then they just become that There's Chinatowns everywhere. And then the largest diaspora is in every ████ area. Every country is Chinese, right? >> But, I like that. You can get Chinese food >> Yeah, but the thing is the stereotype is like people are doing that, but it's like, "No, they're not trying to take over the world." But, it's like they are trying to take over the They are also indoctrinated at a very young age where you're supposed to go out there and you're supposed to multiply like a virus until we can overall take the entire planet. >> But, at least they do it in a nice way. >> Yeah, there at least there's benefits to the locals. >> In the same nice way that freaking Japanese people are nice. I'll tell you that. >> But that's what technically that's every what every country's doing. Like right? Like for why they immigrate. Like nobody's immigrating just to like not multiply. >> No, you're right. Everywhere I've been Chinese like the two things blew my mind growing up
11:53 was you doing a backflip on your head. And then going to Spain and seeing a Chinese person speak perfect Spanish. >> Yeah, every single part of the world. >> Madagascar? Madagascar? You go in there's a Chinese place. >> Wow. >> Picking up fleas? >> No, they they're they're in the city. They're in the they're they're in the city. But they speak Malagasy. >> Fleas are probably from China. >> They they speak perfect Malagasy. Everywhere I've gone there's a Chinese person and they own a restaurant or something and they speak the the language perfectly. >> So there were Chinese restaurants in Madagascar? >> Yeah, yeah. And they spoke Malagasy. >> Run by all like Chinese family? That's true cuz when you do like a road trip and you're like in middle America and all of a sudden you see China Buffet and you're like how the ████ did all
12:43 these Chinese people get here? >> I don't even know how they get the ingredients over there or anything. >> It's like your Patel Motel concept. Have you heard of that? Have you heard of that thing? >> Is that just like Indian people creating motels everywhere? >> But it's the Patel like clan. Like the like everyone from like the Patel family. >> I thought he was bullshitting making that up and then the comments were like no, it's real. Like all these Indian guys are like yeah, that's actually how it goes. >> Yeah, there's a lot of Indian people own stuff here in Vegas. >> They own stuff. They own stuff everywhere. Yeah. I think. There's actually a lot of Indian people in Hawaii. You notice that? >> I actually don't. I was going to ask that. I don't think so. >> Dude, there's Okay, just look for Indian restaurants and how many there are. There's even an Indian market. >> Yeah, but do Indian people run those restaurants or is it Chinese person running it? >> That's true. Okay, next time you're in Haleiwa, check these ████ shell stores and crystal
13:34 shops. It's always an Indian dude. >> Indian people with the crystals? >> Yeah, dude. >> Yeah. Why do you have the dolls in this? >> Because all right. I started noticing the the the in like okay, they're like the Chinese like they find their like thing, right? So like what I notice is all these gift shops with like the you know like the what do you call the totem poles or the tikis and ████ And then like they have the fabrics. If you go to every single gift shop, it's an Indian family. And then you'll be like in like country like you'll be like North Shore whatever and you'll see like the wind chimes and ████ and you're like oh ████ this is cool like a local lady lady with a sari dot like hella hardcore like Indian. Aloha. You know and I'm like what the ████ >> Maybe we're going to different places on the island cuz I
14:24 >> Well, you don't go to gift shops. >> That's true. >> Well, would a local go to a gift shop? >> Yeah, I go to Costco and bring her gifts to other people. >> Cuz that's where that's yeah. Like if you got this ████ at the Indian market, dude, 10 times the price. That's true. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
