Boba Liberalism

What is Boba Liberalism, and why do we keep hearing people accuse others of being a "boba liberal" on social media? For our season finale, Neha comes back to the show for an authentic discussion around the perils of cultural awakening, the dangers of consumerism, and becoming a politically conscious Asian American. We also talk about the Desi equivalent of Boba Liberalism (which we dub "Chai Liberalism"), and the negative effects this term often has when it's used as an insult in Asian liberal spaces.
