They've tried nothing (except chatting with one old woman with severe untreated schizophrenia) and are all out of ideas. And I'm pretty sure facebook is making them more reactionary.
"I'm tired of black people" "why don't they speak up for asians" and "why doesn't anyone do anything about the racist New Black Panther Party." Is just some of the ill informed bullshit I've had to process and respond to lately thanks to the Facebook silo that she and her friends virtually live in.
Any recommendations on how to combat/prevent their facebook brainrot and or help an asian immigrant make friends with black folks when all she does is go to work with other asian folks and occasionally shop at walmart would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I've recommended setting up a block party when this whole pandemic is over since she just moved to a pretty diverse area.
Yeah she's not athletic at all so sports are outta the question, but she just moved to the east bay near San Francisco so there's hope.
I kinda get where she's coming from since she lived in an ethnically homogeneous bubble her whole life and her only connection with the struggles she sees non asian people of color go through is from news articles since she didn't go to school in the states and never had roommates, just went straight from living with her parents to being a homeowner.
I recommended trying to get a block party together though I'm not sure how common those are on the west coast or if that'd be particularly popular during covid. I'm doin my best over here to try to coach her on how to be normal while also extinguishing any reactionary fires before they torch her chances of making friends with anyone besides Ben Carson.
