Oh so that explains huge rise in anti asian racism? Like when people beat up Malaysians or Koreans because they look Chinese? FFS what is wrong with you racists?

There’s to my knowledge only been an increased anti-China sentiment, which is understandable since they’ve become the nazis of our century.

I don’t support anyone getting beaten up no matter what crimes they’ve committed, but I do support isolating China from the rest of the world until we see a positive regime change.

The racism towards Asians in general is overblown. I highly doubt that Malaysians, Koreans, etc. abroad have seen an increase in physical assaults compared to white/black people. If there has been for Chinese people then it’s also important to consider that they in democratic countries went out to have anti-democracy protests (and the Chinese were often very aggressive during these anti-democracy protests).
