The U.S. Is Seeing a Massive Spike in Anti-Asian Hate Crimes

Last week’s viral video of a 91-year-old man being shoved to the ground in Oakland’s Chinatown is the latest in a growing number of racist attacks.

We create the other so we can avoid feeling worthless by calling them that. When you see a racist you are looking at a person who can't live quietly with his or her inferiority complex. No need to dwell on pay back. They are already deeply inwardly miserable and can't feel the joy of being. Have faith that everything we were told about how worthless we are is a lie. Do what you can to let go of the deeply emotional pain being put down creates and the unconscious scars that it leaves. The God within us who loves us without reservation isn't dead only deeply hidden. Trust if you can because life and our inner being is the source of all that is good.

Saw that on the news a couple days ago.
Or maybe it was the Daily Show.
Who knows....

Daily Show is actually more on top of current events than many news outlets.

A clear indicator of how fucking stupid the average American is. What the fuck does a person's ever so slight genetic code effect anything but appearance traits. Being a red head is another genetic trait of a small portion of the population. Or blue eyes, or curly hair, or baldness.

To hating someone because their skin is different is as stupid as hating someone because their hair is red, or have blue eyes, or go bald. Litterally we do that today. Why else to women seek big boobs if nature didn't provide, or men try all sorts of often comical measures to hide the fact they have lost their hair.

Hate crimes against Asian Americans: What the numbers show, and don't - Poynter

Data show an increase in anti-Asian hate during the pandemic. But the numbers are likely a small fraction of actual incidents.

www.poynter.org

The FBI’s hate crime data shows that anti-Asian hate crimes declined in the late 1990s and started to climb in recent years. In 2019, there were 7,314 hate crime incidents overall, according to the FBI, including 158 that were against people of Asian descent. The FBI will release 2020 hate crime figures later this year.

Massive, doubtful, Trump related and accelerated, without question. High altitude shit splatters and there's no doubt that Trump is shit.

When I saw the thread title, I was going to post something about how full of hate, self-loathing, and insecurities one must be to carry out hate by attacking someone because of their skin color or other physical attributes.

But your comment is very succinct and spot on.

Everything that has been publicly available shows the majority has been comitted by people that are black.

So unless you're willing to show me how black people are rampant Trump voters.... you''reeeeeeeee... officially full of shit.

Nice try, toolbag.

But nice try stereotyping like a racist.

You say not to stereotype people then you stereotype all black people. You are horrific.

The fact is not all black people are political or Democrats. And the only major political party who had a cult leader that encouraged lowbrow anti Asian rhetoric was guess who, your cult leader. And the only party that lives to demonize foreign looking people is your party.

It doesn't matter who are the perps, the increase in anti Asian hate crime since the pandemic was only inspired by the GQP.

Take ownership of your racist party

n0b0dy's entire schtick is to come onto these forums, scream as hysterically as possible at what he sees in the mirror, before shitting off to another thread to do the same thing.

So, I mean, it's kinda his thing. I'd mention that he's clearly also a misogynist and is a danger to women, but I won't.

I cant believe the white supremacist are attacking Asians Americans and Pacific Islanders. BIPOC lives matter!

 

[rommelrommel]

It's happening in Canada too.

A fair number the assailants are drug addicted/mentally unwell people, but also just a lot of assholes picking on older people in particular.

I guess Democrats really listened to Trump because it seems like the average Democrat voter is Asian hatin'.

The average Republican voter commits treason to overthrow the government using your logic, shit-for-brains.

Maybe lay off sniffing the gasoline you've hoarded.

Please point to that in the article?

Here is what I found in your article:

it does show that Google searches found spikes for racist terms such as “China virus” and “Kung Flu” spiked throughout 2020. Trump used those terms multiple times that year — including “China virus” as recently as a March 16 interview on Fox News, although there was nothing in his interview to indicate that he knew about the shootings that took place that evening in Georgia.

“Presidential statements have correlated both to increases and decreases in hate crime,” said Brian Levin, director of the center which wrote the report. “It is notable that on March 23, (2020), when President Trump refrained from ethnic terms relating to the virus for a day and spoke of tolerance, there were no anti-Asian hate crimes in NYC in what otherwise was a historically bad month for hate crime.”

Dudes like you are so fucking irritating, they post shit they haven’t read and make a claim that is opposite of what their own fucking link says
Stop being lazy and read the fucking links you post
Stop being so blatantly partisan that you assume an article says something about democrats or progressives and it fucking doesn’t.

I don't see it in the article either? I do know that brainwashing makes people see what they are told is there.

That is why I say that people don't believe what they see but see what they believe.

For some reason, these trolls never seem to be able to figure it out that their own logic of cherrypicking bad actors as the "average Democrat" requires that neo-nazis chanting "Heil Trump" must be the average Republican. If one actually uses logic, that is.

In the video that was posted a while back, the assailant was clearly mentally ill. This is P&N and that was a case of news. The current atmosphere of hatred and intolerance contributes to these things, but the lack of help for those who need it is a constant.
