Race is always relevent to racists

  I was trying to have no presumption about their intent or implication, perhaps there was something frequent in Hmong culture that was relevant... However, sadly the Hmong are a highly discriminated group (at least my experience in VN), I volunteered at an orphanage for Hmong children and many didn't want them just because of their ethnicity

    I can definitely understand giving the benefit of the doubt in most situations, its usually the best move to foster trust and empathy between parties. When I consider the statement by the OP, I don't know what the reason for including race/nationality could possibly be that isn't malicious. It adds literally no extra context besides the insinuation that 'these people aren't the same as me' ('me' being the OP) Maybe someone else has a different perspective and they can explain how they see the statement and how it might not be a purely ingroup/outgroup exclusion/racism thing

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menace_of_Destruction https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menace_of_Destruction You can't have a conversation online anymore. If I mention this stuff to people in town, they take it seriously. Just because someone worse exists in the world doesn't make bad people good.

        You could gave said they were in a specific gang, but instead you said they were Hmong
