I hate that China vs US thing comes down to race things, like it’s us white americans vs those bad chinese. Even American companies are now bad since they dare to sell to chinese people and only care about profits but not the fragile white american ego. It’s especially visible on Hacker News, asian bashing is so common but I guess it’s mostly due to demographics (right wing white americans mostly lurk forums like these, just remember how BLM movement was discussed here). What a farce

i don't pretend to read everything on here but i have yet to see any "asian bashing". i have seen people raise their concerns about the CCP. i hope that's not what you are calling "asian bashing".
You realize many American are from Chinese decent.

Not selling to a citizen of China regardless of race (not all Chinese are from the same race) is much different than not selling to anyone who has a Chinese gene.

The nation state you think China and the US to be doesn't exist.

Most Chinese Americans are extreme right wing, and that includes ones who aren't specifically Taiwanese, or Fukienese Americans.
Voting D, and being very right wind doesn't preclude each other. This election was really an outlier.

As the article already mentions: "While Biden performed well among Asian Americans, the data suggest that Trump didn't lose support with the group, either."

Being right wing and voting D can happen. With Trump I'm sure many members of the Bush family voted D.

If the support didn't go down doesn't that mean the level of support hasn't changed? And this election wasn't an outlier for this group?
