Both of my elderly Asian parents were assulted today by a black woman. My mother is currently in really bad shape heading to the hospital in an ambulance. I'm really pissed at the black community for not calling out their own racist bullshit.

This amazing kid illustrates the issue way better than I ever can.

https://youtu.be/FSOB6iDBGTs about how he took the red pill.
The line "they're playing the victim while being the bully" pretty much sums up things in the super left anandtech poli forum.

Of course his most viewed video with 4 million views.

This has me thinking back to the days of Linsanity, when initially several black NBA players made racial jokes at Lin(of course they all later apologized).
The Lin incidents weren't a surprise to me. It's from my own life experienced that I noticed that society largely crucifies racist behavior towards Blacks and Latinos but Asians were still fair game.

Now Elderly Asians are getting targeted by what appears to be predominately Black males. Don't write this off to just right wing Fox News propaganda etc...
Most elderly Asians I know (all over 70 and can barely speak English) are now extremely cautious around Blacks. Their news source are all Chinese and Vietnamese.
And I don't know why the media is trying to hard to hide this. Each one of these, when the perpetrator is black, there is no mention of the attackers race or even a picture in the vast majority of the news article.
The one case recently I can find in which a White Female scream some Anti-Asian racist rant, her face is splattered all over the article including the preview article link.

In New York City, where anti-Asian hate crime soared nearly nine-fold in 2020 over the year before, only two of the 20 people arrested last year in connection with these attacks were white, according to New York Police Department data analyzed by the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism. Eleven were African Americans, six were white Hispanics and one was a Black Hispanic."


Guy who tried to help and was attack is Korean

I suspect for the same reasons some of the blacks don't like Jews. Both Jews and Asians have a large mercantile population throughout the world for different historical reasons. They have one thing in common with blacks as they were marginalized and many of their businesses were in the black community. Whether legitimate or not, some view them as exploiting them. Not saying it's right, just why some of this was preexisting before COVID, and COVID caused extreme inconveniences for everyone, and people tend to look for targets for their misfortunes.

I thought it was the white MAGA folks who were assaulting Asian Americans because trump started that "China virus" aka "kung flu" shit. At least that's what they are saying. What did I miss?

OP, you got some statistics to back up the twitter article?

Just go on youtube and search for "elderly asian attacked"
You can try to pin this on MAGA crowd, but each one of these attacks are at the heart of the biggest liberal cities and the attackers sure don't look like your typical Trump supporters. I don't see this coming from Texas, Tenn, or any other red states.

It is and always is evil racist white people in KKK outfits with MAGA hats on. They do every racist act that is humanly possible.

People of other races, demographics, or countries aren't capable of racism.

Of course you did - because you like to use feelings instead of facts.


Here's a T-shirt for you to buy little buddy:

As much as a conversation as to why OP wants to make it about " blacks" would be entertaining, this has already been explained.

Advocates attributed the rise of anti-Asian hate in the US in part to former President Donald Trump, who repeatedly referred to the coronavirus as the "China virus" and "kung flu" during the pandemic. In some reported hate incidents, perpetrators repeated the former President's language.

Answer this question and be honest if that's possible.

Are you upset about Asians being targeted because of their race

or

Are you creaming your pants because you found some Asian people attacked and the perp was black?

Now be honest.

If this thread is your evidence racism is an equal problem from the left and the right you are a galaxy away from the truth. That's like saying because we have Oprah that proves this country treats blacks and white equally.

Son, you have a lot to learn

So you're claiming the vast majority of these attackers who are "Blacks" in big liberal cities that hates Trump(NY, LA, SF, Oakland) are doing so because of Trump?

Yes, he really is caught up in this kind of cult-like logic of stupidity.

It takes a special kind of stupidity to get to that level.

What do you think contributes to the attacks on Asian American's by predominantly black males in big cities? Could it be the harsh rhetoric of the former president? Or do you think black Antifa had a meeting and said let's go attack some Asians.

You do know that exit polls estimate Trump got 19% of the black male vote this go around and close to 5% of the black female vote. Let's take a city considered to be really liberal, New York City. Demographics show a population of 2 million African Americans according to the 2010 census, let's say about half male and half female, and if 25% voting age blacks voted for Trump, that loosely translates to a lot of Trump supporters out of that 2 million. So that's a lot of black folks that supported Trump and listen to what he says. You act like there are no black Trump supporters in a city just cause they are big and vote blue when in fact there are a lot when you look at the numbers of a densely populated area.

You are just clueless is the problem.

oh look a moron comforting a moron. As I broke it down in my post above, you have to be clueless to just assume every black person in big cities don't like Trump.

Right, so your wild accusation is that Trump had ~6% of the black vote - and that 6% is whom you're accusing of performing these acts. Not just that - but also someone that actually pays much attention to politics to even hear and see Trump speeches on top of that.

We get it, you're slow and have a problem with math.

Funny, nobody has EVER made that claim except you. In fact I've said the opposite. Try harder

If they vote for him then yeah, they pay attention to him. Could you possibly get even more stupid?

Again, please stop with the high school level name callings.

Did someone interview all those black suspects and get confirmation that they were following Trump's marching orders?

But lets for the sake of argument go with your assumption it's due to Trump's rhetoric, why is it only Blacks are committing the crimes?
Trump has a larger supporter base with white males, but I'm not seeing all these videos of white males attacking eldering Asians.
As a matter of fact, I don't know a single elderly Asian who feels threatened in a white neighborhood.

Folks here aren't capable of having a valid debate/discussion in anything remotely revolving around race unless it's simply to proclaim how they are victims of white oppression and that is the Trump card (har har) for ending the discussion.. It's just one of those topics that they can't handle. Thus they prefer to just pull out a race card or something along those lines in an attempt to steer the conversation into "You're racist" instead of addressing a problem.

Goodluck though.
