Racism against asians is delicate. It's not like overt and violent racisms black people face, where it's easy to recognize and be dealt with.
Take one example.
If you denounce your own color, you are quickly accepted and praised for being funny and unbiased; if you speak up about the injustices, you get labeled as too sensitive, confrontational and quickly cast off.
It's funny to see so many Asian Americans hating their own kin, they just unconsciously internalized those behaviours because doing so gives them social credit.
On this topic, I think Malcolm X had some wisdom on the phenomenon of self hate and mental colonization.
> Who taught you to hate the texture of your hair? Who taught you to hate the color of your skin? To such extent you bleach, to get like the white man. Who taught you to hate the shape of your nose and the shape of your lips? Who taught you to hate yourself from the top of your head to the soles of your feet? Who taught you to hate your own kind? Who taught you to hate the race that you belong to so much so that you don't want to be around each other? No... Before you come asking Mr. Muhammad does he teach hate, you should ask yourself who taught you to hate being what God made you.
> You go into China and find a Chinese man that believes in Jesus and ask him to paint a picture, he’ll paint Jesus looking like a Chinese man. You go up to Alaska and find an Eskimo that believes in Jesus and ask him to paint a picture of Jesus, he’ll paint a picture of Jesus looking like an Eskimo. You come back here to America and find a white man that believes in Jesus he’ll paint Jesus looking like a white man. Go inside a Negro church who believes in Jesus and ask them to paint a picture of Jesus, they’ll paint a picture of Jesus looking like the white man. That’s what you call integration.
