Context: more lore is unveiled around this "ABG/ABB maxxing event". Apparently, "abgcmo" (meaning ABG Chief Marketing Officer) was started by this guy and all these San Francisco personalities just latched on to it as a meme even including the original girls. "abgcmo" appears to be some AI Asian girl influencer generator.

Sorry I hate to keep posting about this ordeal, but I saw this "apology" and it literally reads like "sorryz I tried to sellout Asians and commodify lower income Asian immigrant culture for my own profit". Like it's literally a non-apology. They're only sorry they got backlash 🙄

The vapid need for some Asian Americans to profit off their own culture gives me the ick

Why are these SF influencers or whatever they are literally so out of touch

These tech girlies are so extremely unselfaware. At first I thought it was some weird humiliation ritual, but they keep digging lower and lower even days after the event happened.  I get they want to be associated with the hotness and desirability of “ABGs”, but if I had the internet clowning on me for being “chopped”, I would pack it up. Like what are y’all trying to do?? Then pivoting to “it was all just rarebait” isn’t gonna somehow save the situation as if they were all in on the joke from the start (they weren't).

Their reaction to being told they're coopting the term "ABG" as East Asians is also interesting. People with valid criticisms = snowflake SJWs 🙄 It's giving culture vulture. Though I guess that's par for the course for SF tech workers.

Also... the white guys just inserting themselves to the "ABG" event and hovering around like flies. Like why are you there?!?!!? It’s so nasty.
