Your assertion was that these people cannot accept race neutral, they’ll only accept anti racism. With that framing, the perception of whether the list was racist does matter as it explains their motivation. Because they did perceive the li

Your assertions don’t really stack up with the known facts of the situation. It seems that there was at the very least one instance of behavior that employees perceived as outwardly racist (the names list) and were seeking to address issues

Property taxes wouldn’t rise for no reason, those people get to watch their personal wealth benefit from the housing scarcity surrounding them. Now if they bought at an extremely high price and are highly leveraged, they might now feel that

It’s not “dusting off historical documents” it’s official government policy on both sides of the straight that there’s “one China”. One could argue that the only reason why the ROC hasn’t declared independence is because they’d fear that it
