      If China had “American Values” in its foreign policy, it would have invaded or couped every western country by now.

      You have to consider that you can really only criticise a government according to its alignment with “American values” since any statistical comparison in terms of public trust, infrastructure, quality of life, employment and job security, communal housing and amenities, buying power, access to clean water and electricity, disease control, literacy and numeracy, access to secondary and tertiary education, belief in science, and optimism for the future would inevitably be skewed against the United States

    The same US liberals that virtue signal “Never again” are about to let it happen again.

    Using sacred Chinese cultural symbols in your sinophobic propaganda.

    Imagine how loud they would screech if China did this but with Jesus and… what the fuck do white people even have as cultural symbols other than that? Burgers? Like, actually their own symbols from beginning to end and not stolen from the colonized world.

    Maybe that’s why they keep trying to destroy other people’s culture and traditions. To make up for the fact that they barely have any of their own.

      The whole concept of whiteness is the destruction of unique cultural traditions in favor of class collaboration. There is Irish, Italian, Spanish, Germanic culture, etc. But they all get enveloped in the cultural cemetery that is “whiteness,” at least that’s the case in the US. You can see the same process starting within sects of the Latin American community as well.

      IMO we really ought to be encouraging white people to decolonize and re-engage with their ancestry in a way that reveals and teaches them how their cultures were devoured in service of the ruling class. Because the fascists are doing just that, but misleading them along the way (which is one reason I think there is such a heavy emphasis on Norse mythology in a lot of white nationalist symbology; white people are ignorantly reclaiming lost culture in service of capitalism rather than opposition to it).

        Excellent points. I’ve never really thought of the expansion of whiteness as a process of class collaboration but it makes sense.

        I have an inkling that even Irish and Southern Europeans have only been considered white for 20–30 years or so. I vaguely recall reading this somewhere but I forget where. I’m thinking Tariq Ali, but I could be wildly incorrect. From experience, though, even within my lifetime, I remember hearing anti-Irish jokes in school. Either way, hard to get Ireland and Greece to tank their economies in favour of Germany, France and Britain unless the decision-makers feel some kinship with their counterparts in the rest of the EU.

    Come on Sandra. There is nothing soft about this, nor does it fail in its “responsibility” to white supremacy.

    Racism against Chinese people and perpetuating stereotypes against Chinese people is not only allowed but encouraged on reddit with increasing frequency. I literally can’t read comments now on reddit outside of our communities, because it’s a coin toss whether I run into the most vile shit even on topics unrelated to Chinese people.

      Crimes registered as hate crimes against people that self-identify as Asian.

      With that said while I don’t have the numbers themselves, I would bet more than 90% of those crimes were targetting Chinese people, the media just rebrands it as “Asian” to not draw attention to that fact.

      I say targetting because the dipshits that attacked Asian people for being Chinese actually managed to attack Koreans or Japanese people sometimes.
