Who are doing racist hate crimes?
There is nothing obvious about it.
The media narrative is that Trump’s use of the term “China Virus” or “Kung Flu” has led to attacks on ALL Asians.
I’ve never seen any evidence of this.
And what is disgusting is assuming any old lady anywhere — be she Japanese, Korean, Filipino, Vietnamese, etc— who get pushed or mugged is the result of “anti-Asian racism” fueled by criticism of China.
That somebody would push an old lady because of their dislike of the CCP, is unbelievable enough. But, now I’m supposed to believe some mysterious ‘racists’ are harassing Japanese people because they dislike the CCP...
Where’s is the evidence for this ‘obvious’ state of affairs?
It’s absurd on its face.
Their is more ‘racism’ against Chinese from Vietnamese populations for instance... and vice versa. Ditto for Japanese v. Korean and Chinese v Japanese.
The fabled ‘white supremacist’ out there certainly know the difference between the various ethnicities. Your fabled red-neck Bubba knows the difference between Chinese and Vietnamese and the rest... many of these red-necked bubbas come from families that fought in the Korean War, Vietnam war, have been stationed in Japan, and took R&R in Thailand.
It seems the only segment of society that lumps them all together are white liberals who blithely assume all “people with slanty eyes” are the same. Just as they do with all “brown” people.
