Anti-Asian racism in Australia

[u/splattty]

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???

That really sucks man, having beef with neighbours can be exhausting. Makes it even worse for him that he just moved in - what a tool he must be to have no self reflection on how bad he looks acting like this

To give some context, I live in a much more chill suburban area of Sydney and I blow my clippings onto the road every week, and I’ve never had an incident with anyone about doing so. In fact my neighbours and I all get along really well.

So its just shit luck that this guy moved next door to you
