I keep seeing people in the comments say that she has the eye shape of an asian. She's moroccan, and as one of them I am confident that she has moroccan eyes.

Edit: I literally have friends who have the exact same eye shape, saying they are passable as asian eyes is weird but understandable if I consider a lot of things.
US and US-influenced cultures can have seemingly strange perceptions of ethnicity, but we need to remember that everyone perceives the differences between peoples differently the great majority of east-asians have an epicanthic fold, it's what makes some people describe the eyes as 'slanted' there are many east-asians in the US, and the two other major population groups, west african and north-europeans in the US don't often have the folds, so to them it's heavily defining of east asians it is however a trait that manifests more-or-less similarly in different populations with different probabilities Amazigh people have higher probabilities than other north africans, from here in eastern Europe i can say i associate it with Hungarian people, and obviously there is the Khoisan people and hundreds of other examples of groups of people so basically, someone can let their eyes speak but it won't tell a detailed history of their family tree and heritage

Speaking from my own experience as an asian american, we're not gate keeping people from our community, we're just awkward and shy most of the time and maybe some of us doesn't know how to make people feel included but it's not personal!

We were so uncomfortable that we ended up leaving early, but the couple ended up giving us massive amounts of food from the buffet to take home. They were such lovely people but I don't think their family liked us very much lol.
Who is Instagram?

Nvm the theorys poki their all just "broke boys" who can't afford your cookies anyways.
Instagram messages me all the time too but it’s usually something like “this comment has been removed blah blah blah”
5 months later,she's trying to scam people for real
what scam?😅
@@azhar5912check Pokimane drama on the internet or yt or twitter
She probably didn’t go because they weren’t rich enough to buy her cookies
or too embarrassed that she ripped off another brand but used enriched whatever flour they used for the "vitamins" that make it more expensive *stupid hand gestures*
But isn't the thing in the video is racist?
@@gwTheoshe didnt rip them off. She rebranded them. It's the most common practice anyone can do in business. You find a product and change it slightly then sell it at a profit. Toatzy (the cookies she rebranded) did the exact same thing and I can guarantee the company they did it too also did the same thing because cookies have been around for ages. There are plenty of reasons to dislike her right now but you might as well be accurate about it
@@hopelessgamer2538she wont see this bro
@@truelegend4310 I'm just being factual dude. I think she handled the whole situation in a really scummy way but her rebranding the cookies isnt a cause for complaints. Mr Beast did the exact same thing with beast burger and everyone was more than willing to accept it as normal (beast burger did have it's own separate issues but nobody cared about the fact he was just slapping his name on someone elses sandwich). That's just what business is. The problem with pokis cookies is the outlandish price and her childish behaviour when called out on it.
Just reminds me of that King Of The Hill episode where Hank was invited to the Nine Rivers Country Club so that Mr Wasanasong could make the club look more diverse for a golf tournament
They said you don’t have to be Asian and she was like “ni👏-ghuh!👏”
Be a proud maroccan🇲🇦
Year 9 and they still don’t know I’m not Asian….
It’s probably because she’s not a good person
wow she looks so much like jessica alba it’s crazy she’s gorgeous
Nah i don't see it lol
She doesn't have to be Asian, but she fits right in.
I’m Afro-Mexican. People always think I’m Asian or part Asian, lol.
Native southamerican does look asian, or pacific islander at least. I get told I look mix asian all the time
It’s that Indigenous Indian
@@ReaderViaNilMexicans are nowhere near close to South America.
@@easychang4261India is a sub continent in Asia
Don't worry, we're all Asian on the inside
Need more podcasts pls
She was also apparently too expensive for the OTV bank account. She bought a single bag of 7 cookies for $7
you forced this so hard
@@Misfirem not as hard as her forcing her young fans to feel broke
@@MakeMeAwesomeSauce1 blaming someone else because you felt broke?
logic not found
you can always buy $1 cookies at walmart, nobody force you to buy anything.
Pokimane won't go into your house and publicly shame you if you not buy her cookies
@@MakeMeAwesomeSauce1 still forcing. comedy isnt for everyone
@@Misfirem that last comment wasn't a joke. What is a joke is you defending such a stupid thing so blindly
Yea that kind of feeling, my friend invited me to her gathering (idk the name of it), it's all full of asian people like far east asian, hooo boy they did stare a lot.
For the first 10 minutes i tried so hard to be formal, quite and polite but this one dude stare hard at me unlike the others, so for the next 10 minutes i stare him down also while eating chicken skewer and some kind of dumpling. It's the most frustrating 40 minutes of my life bcs idk what to do, i dont want to create more awkwardness so after meeting her i asked her "permission" to get back home.
She kinda catch whats going on so she apologized and promise to treat me ice cream and milkshake on cafe near our dorm. God even while high i still hate to remember that memory.
Poki needs to get deplatformed
She can wear whatever shoes she wants to man
@@SophiaAstatine respect 😂😂😂
You're too poor to hangout with poki if you can't afford to buy cookie for 8$
Thats a very irrelevant and illogical statement
@@ilbro7874 how is it irrelevant or illogical lil bill? Are her cookies expensive? Did she say you a broke boy of you can't afford them? Where's your point.
I was one of the videographers for the Golden Gala event in nyc! She should’ve came! That would’ve been so cool to get to see her in person! Huge fan Pokimane!
There's something about Poki's soulless stare that gives her the vibes of a complete sociopath. She's like of like the SSSniperwolf of Twitch.
nah just chill the fuck out dont be a hater 😊
She certainly plays up the 'look at me im kawaii japanese' angle though
Speaking from my own experience as an asian american, we're not gate keeping people from our community, we're just awkward and shy most of the time and maybe some of us doesn't know how to make people feel included but it's not personal! Sometimes culture also does play a big role as well. For example i've never felt truly included because im too asian for my american friends and too white for my asian friends.
Ngl I deadass thought she was Korean till now
bro how shes full moroccan
@@blyyyy89omg really? I just thought she was a normal human being idk y she always cares about race
@@blyyyy89What you’re saying makes no sense. Clearly @Carmelo0054 didn’t know she is Moroccan, otherwise they wouldn’t have thought she was Korean. It’s like if you didn’t know me, assumed I was American and I responded « How could you think that I’m American ? I’m full French. »
@@AlphaKennyBody12 Guess Moroccan doesn't count as being a normal human being? Don't worry, everyone's got a little subconscious racism in them.
@@Wolta ??? Everyone is a normal human being the only time ur not normal is when u are diagnosed with a special condition, im someone whos not brainwashed in country politics and someone who prefers equality so i look at everyone with the same eyes and treat them like they do to me.
Litrally i dont care about race i dont mention race because its stupid and doesnt fucking matter
Why do people on the comment section act like they haven’t seen people who don’t look like their nationalities????? Like that happens.
Poki made it this long without being found out. 😔
It's crazy how she looks so Asian but is actually more African and less than 1% asian. She's the ichthyosaurus of the human world
“Ni…. gga, you ain’t funnyyuhhh 😩” - Pokimane
Lol so what I’m hearing is if u appeal to the Asian community then it’s very beneficial
Poki is racist af 😅
She’s from morroco no?
Yes
All I can say is she’s from a descent that has a particular reputation where I live
Small hat gang? Nose tribe? Rhymes with druish?
''They don't know i'm not Asian'' - Girl that looks like Cristine Reyes an asian actress
So she's saying she's also racist?
Golly Streamers are a part of a ton of groups.
Its wild you can make millions chilling just streaming with a couple of bros are gals. Then travel around gaming and going to event s to advertise your brand or merch. And boom millionaires at 34 or less.
It blows my mine eveytime because it would seem everyone should be able to do that but sadly only certain amount of people have the friemds capable enough to set up these massive plans and video ideas on big sets.
Im yapping lol
I forgot she isn’t Asian lmaooo, she’s Asian in our hearts
well she is arab who are originally from asia so i guess that would make her asian.
@@admar1208well geography wise she is North Africa but yeah kinda
Unironically, this is a good example of Liberal racism.
It's segregation and crazy. Nobody is saying anything.
They're unironically bringing back segregation lmao
That's understandable from Poki's point.
Yeah she needs a dna test, and if she got one, she needs a new one.
lol she did one and she looks like what she is
whats with the "oh no syd" comments?
Syd is the only non-asian in OTV?
@@LifeWatcher you got it right
She’s next if the are removing the non asians
I don't know who Syd is. I keep thinking they mean Sydsnap, but I don't know what she has to do with this.
@@PatLund Sydeon?
