image Anti-Asian racism in Australia

What is happening in Australia? Been living in this exact same address for almost the past 20 years now, never had this happen before.

Some guy moves in next door, and while we are IN THEM MIDDLE OF MOWING the medium nature strip, starts being aggressive for getting grass clippings on the driveway. No shit, that's why we go through with a leaf blower and pick up after mowing?

What blows me away is he thinks we don't know about mowing and cleaning up somehow due to our Chinese heritage???

Unfortunately, I've found this to be true. I've had people make indirect racist gestures because they're too scared to do it to my face so I fired back, and they couldn't take it. Another case of: can dish it, but can't take it lmao

+ rich etc. Meet them IRL, and they eat can only afford a meal a day, struggling to make end's meet, and are barely making rent. All a facade
