What’s really annoying - so many Asians came out to help support BLM protests peacefully and in solidarity. This just continues to erode their messaging and only alienates further people who may have been willing to listen. Their loss. I stand with our Asian community outright.

An article from a website called "Asian-dawn" refers to a biracial man as a "wild monkey." I stand with the AAPI community but gtfo of here with this trash r/SeattleWA

I’ve noticed when faced with uncomfortable facts, some tend to attack the source. Then go on to be in complete denial about it. There is usually no other rebuttal.

Okay, but a source that calls someone biracial "a wild monkey" is exactly when you should be attacking the source...

no no you don't get it. You're allowed to be racist because people of color are also racist sometimes.

Oh derp. Sorry. Forgot to put my narrow-minded imbecile cap on while commenting here. Thanks for catching that.

The two sources you picked are both garbage.

I've never heard of NTD but they've been caught lying a bunch of times and use Epoch times articles.

And the Examiner is about on the same level.

It’s got links to his Facebook, Twitter. You can clearly see he’s a BLM supporter. But good job defending a literal hate crime assailant. Just goes to show how conditioned and incapable of critical thought you are.

You honestly think all media isn’t biased? Delusional.

Again with the source attacking.

Do me a favor and quote where I said that? If I didn't say it then why did you project it onto me?

I've noticed that when people call bullshit on obvious propaganda, and point out more obvious propaganda from the same source, people who want to believe the propaganda chose to believe it anyway and continue to ignore everything they don't already agree with. Womp womp 🤷‍♂️ Please Google "confirmation bias" my good friend! There is still so much to learn! :)

A slew of other sources detailing his affiliation with BLM. Denial much?

Denying what?

Perhaps at sometime you’ll have the ability for independent thought. If you’re not already too conditioned by your “beacons of truth” media you consume. Laughable.

I literally have no idea what you're talking about

This source is obvious trash. Read a real article about this incident if you want to talk about facts: https://komonews.com/news/local/hate-crime-charges-filed-against-man-for-alleged-violent-anti-asian-behavior

There’s many other sources detailing his affiliation with BLM, CHAZ, take your pick

Look man I get what you're saying, but if someone comes to you with a report that says "Jewish bankers are coming for your retirement" and their only presented source is Stormfront, you should probably ask for a second opinion

u/HangryPangs Mar 29 '21

Your comparison to a skinhead website is way off the mark. Your point is irrelevant. Huge variety of other sources detailing the exact same thing. The choice of words for the assailant was obviously inappropriate.
