Meanwhile the sinophobic media scratches it's head while trying to figure out where all this racism towards Asian-Americans came from.

If by “scratching it’s head” you mean the satanic glee of a murderer hanging around the crime scene going “wow I wonder who did this”, then yeah
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
Where are you from? Cause if you say US or any EU country then of fucking course only a Vietnamese who left the homeland to go live in a Western shithole would spew unhinged shit like that. Bootlickers who think life in South Vietnam was better when the US "came and improve people's lives".
I don’t think the average Vietnamese person from that era really cares too much about whether their lives were “improved” when the Americans occupied the country. Their views are usually colored more by their conditions after moving to the US, which are generally better than before they moved. The nationalism for the south is just because they dislike communism and because their lives are better in the US (after being bombed and occupied by them) which presents themselves as the saviors.
I still remember that story during the Covid lockdowns, some boomer lady started screaming racist sinophobic stuff against a couple in New York(?). The couple were Korean-Americans and it turns out the boomer lady works for Radio Free Asia.
Not surprising considering RFA generates so much sinophobia that surprise surprise, leads to more anti asian (ie. Not just Chinese people) racism in North America.
lmao so on brand
I also remember how they tried to frame the attacks on Asian Americans as black people being racist against Asians, but every time it was just a white person.
The racism beat for a Boston-based news outlet has got to be one of the most secure jobs in journalism.
Why would mark wahlberg do this
we simply can't know what was in his heart, and also calling him racist just because he's white makes you all the real racists actually
Perfect caricature of a racist dipshit boomer.
least racist American crackkker
