To be honest I have never really understood why using the phrase “ricing” is acceptable at all. I don’t know that many asian people though so I have zero authority either way on the subject, but it seems like a cut and dry case of people making fun of the way asians mod the shitty cars they drive to try to make them not look shitty in a way that people don’t make fun of for anybody but Asians.
I am not saying it is a word people shouldn’t use, again I don’t have the context to determine that either way but I am a bit surprised when people don’t see at least the possible problematic aspects of the use of the word. Is it a word that was originally a derogatory word that Asians claimed themselves (like queer in the LGTBQ community for example)?
Not attacking anyone here or trying to raise anyone’s hackles I am just genuinely confused by the context and meaning of the phrase ricing.
