east asian baiting
East Asian Baiting is when someone says they’re Asian just to look cool. They’ll wear a traditional outfit, act like they speak fluent Japanese, and get mad when you challenge them.
'I speak fluent Japanese. I even taught it to my dog.'
'I wore a kimono to school. My teacher gave me a gold star.'
'I get mad when people say I’m not Asian. I am Asian. I’m the most Asian person ever.'
