I get that China has a SHITTY record on human rights, but hey.. if we're talking about surveillance states and you're not mentioning the Australian police using facial recognition without ANY accountability, or the NSW Police Force use of STMP (Suspect Target Management Plan - a predictive policing 'black list' that is meant to predict people becoming deviant and is literally 50% Indigenous people listed), then you might just be a racist.

"As we have always said, anti-Asian hate is not simply about interpersonal attacks, but also racist rhetoric and xenophobic and racist policies."

Now Texas Governor Abbot is on board with banning Chinese immigrants from buying homes?

“In recent weeks, eyes have turned to Texas Senate Bill 147, which would strip citizens of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea of the right to buy land or property, including homes. Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, has already said he will sign it if it passes.”

Not sorry for throwing down money and walking away from the social crowd at the bar tonight. Real cool of you to make my heritage a joke. I'm not laughing. Have fun with yourselves. #stopaapihate #asian #hapa #chinesenewyear

I wish there were more examples of #AsianAmericans speaking up other communities -- including in Asia, like #Tibetans, #Uyghurs, #HongKongers, etc, face repression.

We only seem to care when we're the target of #racism

Two mass shootings in three days involving the Asian community and The Wall Street Journal ran this photo of an Asian baby with this headline.

It’s been nearly 3 years of innocent members of our community being attacked or murdered and the xenophobia continues.

A huge fuck you to The Wall Street Journal. You clearly have traded journalistic credibility for clicks.

Targeting events like Lunar New Year events in Monterey Park is exactly the kind of terrorizing violence that, regardless of motivation, will still feel like a hate crime, intentional and targeted. Masking this as simply gun violence is part of the problem. #stopaapihate

I am so angry…about the absolute lack of remorse in her statement to police, by that smirk in her mugshot, by the blandness of the statements by officials to tell us that they will support the Asian community.

Saying we have your support is not enough. Show it.

Seriously, WTAF.

“An 18-year-old Indiana University student was stabbed multiple times in the head while riding a local bus in Bloomington, Ind., this past week.

The suspect told police she stabbed the victim because the victim was Chinese, adding that it "would be one less person to blow up our country.”
