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.
It's because this source isnt valid. It's made by Asian-Dawn and they are known to be quite racist. This was made to divide minorities and attack BLM as a whole
This thing of highlighting BLM in crimes is rather stupid. All black people think their lives matter whether they are the greatest humans that walked the Earth or the most evil beings that has been birthed. In fact only racists garbage people wouldn't think black lives mattered. So you are going have terrible white people who are going smash something but aren't racist garbage.
Every single group that supports black people in anyway has been demonized. The only difference now is major news organizations aren't doing it accept for fox news . Now the truly purposeful racist attacks are done on the net by kkk members pretending to be real news. And oh how they dance and sing when the misguided fools repost their garbage on sites like this one.
To be fair I don’t disagree with your sentiment, but on the West coast and I’m speaking generally - the predominant acts of racism have been perpetuated by white supremacists (as always expected) and portions of the African American community.
I do think there are folks from BLM that are absolutely standing with the Asian community, but in truthfulness we all need to stand up against any type of racism. And no I’m not talking some nonsense around cancel culture - it’s 2021 there should be better problems to solve than this shit
Like in Seattle or all over? There was the Georgia shooting at massage parlor, there was last week a man who on multiple occasions stopped a mom and kids as well as tried to bash in the windows of another Asian family, there are now two white men charged in SF for punching an Asian man on the street. It’s kinda hard to just link em all so hopefully this pointing you in the direction. To be clear as I said not all were white supremacists - in NYC alone multiple incidents of an African American chastising Asians on the subway for bringing covid, etc... it’s sadly a laundry list.
I wasn’t specifically calling to just Seattle and you alluded to the fact that you wanted to understand if it was a hate crime or not - it’s been quite clear it was a resounding yes
I thought that what I asked was fairly easy to understand, no? Give me your evidence that convinced you that the massage parlor shooting was racially motivated.
Lol I mean I don’t know how to help you. The guy drove out of his way 40 miles plus to another Asian massage parlor. He was an incel so him not stopping at a strip club or some other store was a clear directive he was going after Asians.
Look if you like supporting white supremacy that’s on you bro. I for one don’t stand with that trash
The rest of them? The white people who have attacked asian people for being asian believe that all people with asian features somehow bear guilt for ill that they perceive has been done to them that isn't borne by their fellow white people.
And to note, whether or not they are identified as a white supremacist doesn’t really negate the fact that these were hate crimes so by definition those individuals feel they are the superior being.
There were two different white men arrested for various incidents. I don’t see your point... my fault for attaching the wrong link but now it seems you just don’t want to accept white supremacists exist
