Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I know a couple of Vietnamese people who will say shit like “I’ll just tell people I’m not Chinese and hate them too.” They say it half jokingly, half seriously. I try to tell them that we’re all Chinese in the eyes of Americans, but they won’t listen to me. They genuinely think Americans can tell us apart and will listen to reason, as long as you can do it before they beat you or push you in front of a train. Worse are the cucks who are attached to south Vietnam and love america. They literally assassinated your president you clown. Some of the worse massacres were committed by Americans against south Vietnamese people. They do not see us as humans, and the anti Asian crime and sentiment are evidence of it. And no, charging a guy wont fix it. The foundations of this country is what made him do it.
I don’t mean to make a whole screed on a post about a family almost being murdered. But some people will look at news like this and just think they need to be One of The Good Ones and it won’t happen to them, which causes inaction and more incidents like this to happen.
I’m really troubled by the recent rise in anti-Chinese propaganda in the US because it means all Asian people will be increasingly threatened by violence like this
Big reason why I get kind of unhinged over rhetorically defending China
