Okay, but if how close I am to the CCP is seen as a function of how I look and where I’m from, then what the fuck am I supposed to do? Walk around in white-face with a big American flag and tell people I’m from Kansas?
The problem is that people are inferring political beliefs from how people look or their race or their nationality.
Regarding Japan, the narrative was different, but the sentiments were similar. Vincent Chin was murdered for being Japanese (although he was Chinese) and his murderers only got a $3000 fine.
