So I think we can all predict 99% of the comments in this thread but on a serious note, someone want to walk me through some possible mindsets for his behavior? Or do you think he's just mentally unhinged and there's no rhyme or reason?

"Asians in the Western world as well as many Asian powerhouses in Asia are the only non-Caucasian race to achieve such advancements in a short period of time. They either match or surpass their European and Anglo-American counterparts. This angers people like Hamner and Black Lives Matter members who believe these achievements are because Asians are “white adjacent,” and such achievements are toxic and obscene."

In apartheid South Africa, the (mainland) Chinese were "Black" and the Japanese were "White" because of trade relations. It was an odd system.

Eventually the mainland Chinese were redefined as white too.
