Why not just say, nearly all Trump voters think Chinese Americans are a threat. We all know who that 25% is.
Thought exactly this when I read the headline.
Given how anti china a lot of Dems are... I wouldn't be so sure that 25% is just republicans. How many Dems fell for the 'secret Chinese police stations capturing us citizens' nonsense from a few years ago?
There's a very distinct difference between anti-China and anti-Chinese.
Blurring that line is what the Republicans rely on to pass their bullshit. It is the same as the Israeli government blurring the line between their actions and general anti-Semitism.
No, there really isn’t, considering even anonymous western polling has found the Chinese people support their government in numbers unheard of in the west. That’s just a cope bigots tell themselves to justify being anti-Chinese.
On the other hand, the majority of Israelis support the continuation of the ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza and the West Bank, and their and their governments conflation of Israel with Jewishness is indeed dangerous and causes more danger for Jewish persons the world around.
I love Chinese culture and food and history. I have more than a few Chinese friends, from both Taiwan and the mainland. I have a couple of friends and coworkers from Hong Kong who I knew while they had to watch the PRC steamrolling the city from afar and tried to help their friends and family coordinate and escape before the crackdowns made that infeasible, and it was heartbreaking to see. I think it’s a goddamn travesty what the Chinese people have had to put up with for literal centuries - imperialism, followed by brutal military occupation, folllowed by a brutal civil war, followed by an authoritarian takeover by the PRC and a shocking number of extremely destructive and counterproductive policies enacted by Mao and his successors.
But sure; “I hate Chinese people”, because you don’t appear to have one whit of understanding of cultural nuance.
Stop spouting lemmygrad dogma. It’s so tiring. And nobody buys it.
Dude, your talking to a tankie, just downvote and move on, you're not going to get any reasonable discussion from them.
Oh, I know; every once in a while I enjoy rhetorically skewering them though.
Oh man appealing to your friends to say you’re not racist, so original. Would you say you have black friends with a straight face? I too have Chinese friends, and my wife is from the mainland, I don’t use them to justify my stances.
So you're saying you hate china and are racist towards them because of it?
Lmao quite the opposite. I respect the Chinese people so much that I actually listen to them instead of infantilizing them by saying “I love Chinese people but hate the Chinese government”, as if the Chinese government isn’t made up of Chinese people and supported by an overwhelming majority of the Chinese people.
Those are your words, not theirs. An incorrect interpretation of what was said
Are you being serious right now? Is this really the rhetorical hill you want to die on?
.ml
Ok buddy
Found the racist.
"Racism is recognizing when the PRC does something bad"?
Anyone can be cured of liberalism before it decays into fascism.
Tankie dweeb.
Liberals appointed Hitler, liberals are currently fully supporting trump by approving all of his appointments (and many of his bills).
Liberals are the only people in history to bring fascists to power.
I don't know - how many?
oh shit i forgot about that, did anything happen with that? news agencies all stopped reporting about it mid-2023
The two people arrested were freed after charges were dropped and the doh never spoke a word about it or made any additional arrests. Additionally no other country made arrests, despite it he ng alleged by the US doj and tabloids that this is a global phenomena.
Unsurprising, unfortunately. This remains a deeply racist country.
Compared to what? Fascistic MAGA seditionists?
and polls taken from boomers, and red areas of course.
ABOUT OUR METHODOLOGY: To ensure representative accuracy, we ask only people still using landlines what they think. If a woman picks up, we ask for her husband or try again later. We are fully committed to keeping our data untainted by any female histrionics.
Fucking morons afraid of thier own shadow
Also guaranteed that anyone east of Turkey may be considered Chinese to these people (because thousands of years of migration means there are ethnic groups far from the usual consideration of east asian yet lineage to the land tracing back centuries to over a millennium to the region that could be mistaken visually for east asian). Also what should not be a surprise to anyone is that if Chinese people face discrimination, so will Taiwanese people
Racists have a hard time differentiating. My daughter in law is Burmese, not Chinese. Do the racists care? Nope.
Honestly, if you're gonna dedicate your life to being an absolutely hateful piece of shit, take some pride, hone your craft. A good racist should be able to at least be able to get the highlights of your 23 and me profile right. The best car guys can call out the make, model, year, and trim package from a revving engine. I want to see a racist hear a foreign accent and exclaim "Oh! That's an '81 Vietnamese-Laotian bisexual... nope wait... pansexual! ... Gettem boys!"
Literally the first federal immigration law in the US was the Asian Exclusion Act which explicitly was written to keep Chinese immigrants from challenging white dominance.
Huh, only 25 percent, I would have thought it be around 40.
At any rate, just a reminder to Asian American brethern and other POC, 2A is a right that applies to all Americans and you know that these racist fucks are all over 2A like White on rice.
They're trying to line up the next minority to be sent to the Salvadoran torture prisons.
The transexual atheist Chinese-Americans are extra scary.
they're honestly very friendly if you're able to communicate with autistic people well
These people have no place in this country. The US has always been a melting pot, it is its most valuable feature imo.
If you don't like that, then you should fucking leave. Good riddance.
Maybe it's always been melting pot, but it threw Japanese Americans into concentration camps during our grandparents lifetimes. This shit is a time honored American tradition too.
Yeah, doing a thing once (and later having the Supreme Court reverse their original ruling, and have the government formally apologize) does not make for a "time honored American tradition."
But yes, I'm aware that the US has done (and continues to do) awful shit.
If Americans discriminated so hard against Chinese Americans - it’d probably hit all east/southeast Asians - to the point that they were excluded from defense/security, that would decimate defense/security product development
I’m sure they found them a threat since Covid.
Are Indians even included in these metrics, the rise in Indian hate speech on online platforms is surreal these days
I'm surprised it's not more than 50%.
