"The takeaway from ... Crazy Rich Asians is the following: if you discriminate against us we'll make more money than you and buy your fancy hotel that wouldn't let us in. Capitalism as retribution for racism. But isn't that how whiteness recruits us? Whether it's through retribution or indebtedness, who are we when we become better than them in a system that destroyed us?" got literal chills. so good.

"The privilege of assimilation is that you are left alone. But assimilation must not be mistaken for power, because once you have acquired power, you are exposed, and your model minority qualifications that helped you in the past can be used against you, since you are no longer invisible."

"When I hear the phrase 'Asians are next in line to be white,' I replace the word 'white' with 'disappear.' Asians are next in line to disappear. We are reputed to be so accomplished, so law-abiding, we will disappear into this country's amnesiac fog. We will not be the power but become absorbed by power, not share the power of whites but be stooges to white ideology that exploited our ancestors."
