Eric,
You've only had since LA riots - what have you been doing? :-)
Becoming woke, apparently.

Even the "Rooftop Koreans" are no more. They've been replaced by the "boba liberals":

*******

Urban Dictionary: boba liberal

A boba liberal is usually an upper middle class East or Southeast Asian living in the West, typically in the United State or Canada, who identifies as a liberal. However their association with liberal ideology and liberalism is simply a means to increase their proximity to whiteness or to pretend to be white themselves. Boba liberals use their Asianness to speak on behalf of the Asian population in the West, using talking points created by white liberals, which has a tendency to gaslight actual issues faced by the Asian diaspora.

An example of a "boba liberal" would be John Yang, president of Asian-Americans Advancing Justice, who claimed that the removal of vote-by-mail in many states takes the right to vote away from Asians:

He's speaking on behalf of Asian-Americans, but he's uttering talking points that were written for him by white liberals, in an effort to be "in the room where it happens."
