Nah. I still disagree. "Casual racism against Chinese people" has been a mainstay of America since the railroads were built. Probably before.

I mean Bugs Bunny comes to mind, what more casually racist and beloved character is there?

Those guys were all using coded language for decades. Many white kids pick up on that language and adopted it. All while Trump was donating to the Clintons and well before too.

The danger in attributing this all to Trump is that Trump is going to die one day, fascism in America won't die with him.
