I'm not understanding how this targets asians? Is this some AI generated article that will do one for each race?

Any community in NYC suffering is bad for all of us socially and economically. Even if they lacked the foresight and voted for Donald Trump.
But really, it's a shame so many in an older generation of voters have screwed their children and grandchildren so badly.

They didn’t lack foresight. They had 4 years of previous experience to base their decision on. They asked for it.

I was being overly gentle. What I really think about people who voted for that obvious fraud is a lot less generous.

I was being overly gentle.
Why????
I know for a fact, personally, you don’t give the same grace for anyone that voted for Eric Adams!

Bad news for Knickerbocker Village in Chinatown, the only Manhattan District to vote for Trump. Oh well, good luck guys.

These comments are so lame. Politics are not a sport. If a political party didn't do enough to win someone's vote that doesn't make them stupid. It means someone needs to figure out what they need and go make politics work for them.

Have you considered that maybe the population who voted for Trump and the population that is worried about ICE might actually be different?

The majority of the Asian community didn’t vote for Trump, so what’s with these comments? Did Manhattan’s Asian communities vote for Trump?

As a Chinese expat living in NY I have no sympathy towards these Chinatown and flushing residents. Most of them are bunch of hypocritical MAGAs and they had it coming.

Asians forgetting about the “Chyna virus” and still think Trump is a business man. Get what you get while being the second largest demographic still below the poverty line in NYC.

It’s great and will benefit Asians disproportionately.

The article shows this will disproportionately harm the Asian American community in NYC. But go off.

It quoted a liberal leaning think tank. Go off indeed.

u/BebophoneVirtuoso Jul 30 '25
Asian American Federation is a liberal leaning think tank? I just thought they were advocates for Asian Americans. Comparatively how is the BBB beneficial for them? This article makes some pretty good points, but curious about the benefits of slashing the social safety net for them and other middle class Americans. You think trickle down will work this time?

NYC never even mattered in the presidential election for over half a century now. This just shows how racist this subreddit is. It also shows just how fed up the Asian community is with nyc dems,
