Aah I just got to read through this and learned I was mentioned! Thanks so much @alyaza for organizing and making sense of all this.

For the sake of archiving so it doesn't get lost, here's a post I made soon after being called a fragile picrew weirdo. I mentioned it in the comments of that post, but I had to deal with a lot of racist pushback to my Superman fan comic (where I received said "fragile picrew weirdo" comment) after posting it. I experienced racism across all platforms, here being no different.

I can't stress enough how tiring it is to exist online as a poc. As a Southeast Asian, I get to deal with being constantly infantilized online, only to be instantly judged as the Angry Brown Person the second I step out of that perception they made up about me. You can't tell poc to just not speak up about racism and lay low, because racism happens regardless of what we do. I had to deal with a person being rude about boundaries because they brought up image hosting. You can victim blame poc all you want for being "dramatic" or loud about bigotry, but the truth is just existing with any kind of respect for ourselves means inevitably dealing with racism.
