Violence has Asian Americans questioning how far they have really come in their American journey (Barf)

Phil Yu was not surprised that a white gunman killed eight people, six of them Asian women, at Atlanta-area spas advertising their "Asian" or "international" staff.

The worst thought he had on Wednesday, the day after the massacre, was just that, he said — he had seen it coming.

“Being Asian in this country, no matter how long you’ve been here or how you got here, often feels like a constant negotiation of feeling unwelcome," said Yu, a blogger and commentator in Southern California who posts as Angry Asian Man.

Many Asian Americans are bristling with pain and fury, seeing the killings as a culmination of a steady drumbeat of racist attacks, with some people blaming them for the coronavirus pandemic because of its origins in China.

...

The mowing down of so many Asian women, at businesses known to employ Asian workers, was a racial targeting by its very circumstances, they said.

They feared for their parents, their grandparents, their friends, their children, themselves. They lamented that hard-won immigrant dreams had been tarnished by hate. Some Asian American women shared their experiences of being dehumanized and fetishized by white men.

...

Rep. Judy Chu (D-Monterey Park) is set to testify at a congressional hearing Thursday on the rise in hate crimes against people of Asian descent. ...

She laid the eight deaths directly at Trump’s feet, as did some other Asian Americans.

“President Trump clearly stoked the flames of xenophobia against AAPIs with his rhetoric,” Chu said Wednesday on Capitol Hill during the Democratic Caucus’ weekly press conference, by calling the virus "kung flu" and the "Wuhan virus," in addition to the "China virus."

“And what we saw yesterday is the result of that," she said.

The Asians I work with are normal people.

The Asians that end up in politics are gay libtards.

What is happening?

So why didn’t the shooter pick an Asian market or restaurant?

But it’s ok to refer to the CCP virus as:
UK variant
South African variant
Italian variant
Philippines variant
Los Angeles variant

And so on...

It was a bio-weapon made and manufactured in Communist China

“ The Asians that end up in politics are gay libtards.”

There are two kinds of people who become politicians. The majority of them are sociopaths. Those who are not sociopaths are psychopaths.

The deep state fears Asians are becoming too white.

They need to be agitated and convinced they are victims.

Yes, facts like most beat down attacks recently have come from the Amish sector and one from the neckbeard sector. Paint with too wide a brush splatters.

Orchestrated propaganda from Ministry of Truth.

It’s utter nonsense meant to sow discord, hatred and mistrust.

My daughter was at the park (Seattle area) and sent me a photo of a decal on the rear window of a car. It had a nice image of Chairman Mao with a bunch of Chinese characters below it.

I wonder if there is a way to translate the characters back into English? I’m guessing the words didn’t say “screw Mao”.

Their new talking point is that the anti-Asian sentiment is Trump’s fault.

Trump is in no way responsible or even connected to these acts, he (like most of us) does not like Chinese communism, and I would have to ask, who does, other than the members of the politburo perhaps? The reason for Chinese emigration to North America is largely a desire to escape communism.

As to angry Asian man feeling unwelcome, not sure why, anti-Asian sentiment seems pretty low as a thing, anti-communism remains fairly strong. I couldn’t care less if they are here or not as long as their arrival was legal and they have no connection to the PRC government.

Anti Asian violence is overwhelmingly black racism in the form of violence. But then again, since blacks commit the vast majority of crimes against other races then I guess that’s black racism as well so the only systemic racism in this country is black racism. Then again, since they commit the vast majority of crimes against blacks then that’s also anti-black racism on the part of blacks. They hate themselves and hate everyone else.

Am I mistaken or did this “Asian American” article focus solely on Chinese?

Well, they can return to their Chinese ‘journey’ and always go home. No one is keeping the crybaby whiners here.

And there is a third type: a malignant narcissist. Though not nearly quite as dangerous as a psychopath or a sociopath( perhaps the most dangerous type of all) malignant narcissists can be venal, devious, deceitful, grandiose and supremely convinced of their own over inflated sense of self worth and importance.

Barack Obama is a classic example of a malignant narcissist.

Phil Yu - F*** You, you racist creep.

Rep. Judy Chu - hardcore Red Chinese maoist communist since the 1980’s. See her documented record at www.keywiki.org under her page.

I live in a mixed neighborhood just outside of DC and nobody bothers the hardworking Chinese, Vietnamese or Korean residents.

I started working with the So. Vietnamese in 1970 when I went there as a journalist and then in 1975 as a member of an American-Vietnamese resettlement program. Been friends with a famed Kuomintang general, Bernie Yoh (SACO) from 1967 till he died when I was invited to his viewing. Went to the funeral/burial of another Vietnamese friend, Nguyen Ngoc Bich, one of the most famous So. Vietnamese diplomats, poets and teachers in the South. His brother was my interpreter in Nam.

The few deplorable anti-Asian incidents which have happened were done by ignorant people who blamed Asians for something done by other ethnics/people, and some of these aholes went to jail for it, where they deserved to be.

The Marxists in our country, re Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and Alinsky, have successfully created artificial divides between the races, ethnic groups, economic groups, educational groups, etc.

There is no place for “hate” on our side. That should be a monopoly of the “Left” and they must be exposed and made to pay a price for it.
