The tweet is wrong, and your suggestion that the Biden administration is hiding Asian crime victimization stats in order to maintain its 2020 voting coalition is inflammatory and unsubstantiated.
Burry cites the Criminal Victimization report from 2019 [0] and 2020 [1]. Each of these reports contains a table with victimization by type of crime and demographics of victim (table 9 for 2019 and table 6 for 2020), and each includes "Asian" as a demographic category.
The 2018 report contains the same table (table 9), also with "Asian" as a category.
The CV reports are summaries of the National Crime Victimization Survey, which is just a big pile of data. People are free to analyze it themselves [3].
I don't know what Burry is screenshotting here. The images look like the CV reports, but the table numbers don't match. They don't even match his link. Regardless, this seems spurious; there's no evidence of an effort to bury anything.

- cuteboy19 4y agoYou are looking at the wrong tables and PDFs. Burry is pointing at cv18 table14 vs cv19 table16 in the photos. Note that this has the race of both the victim and the offender. Additionally, Burry is citing that victim vs offender race table itself missing in cv20 which btw is an even more grave omission.
- camgunz 4y agoOh I see. That's super confusing. Regardless, there are other tables that contain stats on Asian victimization in the reports, including 2020. These are just reports; they're not meant to be longitudinal across years.
