‘Stop Asian hate’ tried to get resurrected by NBC News. After weeks of dying due to not fitting the narrative, there’s some brand-new study saying that most perpetrators of anti-Asian violence are white. The headline itself is a doozy and the data is even shoddier (via NBC News):
Janelle Wong, a professor of American Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park, released analysis last week that drew on previously published studies on anti-Asian bias. She found official crime statistics and other studies revealed more than three-quarters of offenders of anti-Asian hate crimes and incidents, from both before and during the pandemic, have been white, contrary to many of the images circulating online.
Wong told NBC Asian America that such dangerous misconceptions about who perpetrates anti-Asian hate incidents can have "long-term consequences for racial solidarity."
"The way that the media is covering and the way that people are understanding anti-Asian hate at this moment, in some ways, draws attention to these long-standing anti-Asian biases in U.S. society," Wong said. "But the racist kind of tropes that come along with it — especially that it's predominantly Black people attacking Asian Americans who are elderly — there's not really an empirical basis in that."
[…]
Other studies confirm the findings, Wong wrote. She pointed to separate research from the University of Michigan Virulent Hate Project, which examined media reports about anti-Asian incidents last year and found that upward of 75 percent of news stories identified perpetrators as male and white in instances of physical or verbal assault and harassment when the race of the perpetrator was confirmed. Wong said the numbers could even be an underestimate.
Wait, what?! First, this joke of a story says that we’re not really seeing black people physically assault Asians. There’s no “empirical basis,” and now the reason for this shoddy narrative revival exercise is because…the media says the perpetrators are white. The same media that’s been wrong about everything for years? Also, did you catch the real meaning behind this article? If we don’t do anything, racial solidarity could be at risk. So, lie your ass off about who’s committing Asian hate crimes so we can manufacture a false reality to make us feel better about race in America. That’s not healthy.
White committing most of the Asian hate crimes is not true. Not even close. Therefore, this narrative died weeks ago, as did the virtue signaling. The Left tried to blame white supremacy and Trump for the spike in Asian hate crimes. And then the people who were caught committing these crimes all turned out to be mostly nonwhite. In fact, the face of white supremacy regarding Asian hate crimes is quite black—literally. How many videos do we have to see, and the suspect not be a white person? It’s a pattern for a reason. It’s why CNN’s control room was puzzled at how to help Black Lives Matter because so many of the suspects of these Asian hate crimes were black.
It’s all a lie. Those people are really white or something. What a joke.
Just recently they said you “don’t have to be white to be a white supremacist”, I believe they said that to cover up for the fact that it was primarily blacks attacking Asians, not whites.
70% of Asians voted for Obama, twice!
Could be White Hispanics like George Zimmerman.
Attackers are trans White.
The real data is Asian Americans suffer little from hate crimes perpetrated by white citizens as the media,, in ramping up their latest fashionable false narrative against white citizens would have us believe. FBI statistics are that, in 2019, there were 7,314 hate crime incidents overall, according to the FBI, including 158 that were against people of Asian descent. 26% perpetuated by Caucasians for a total of approximately 40 hate crimes by Caucasians against the 17 million Asians Americans in the US. And those 40 transgressions included property hate crime and verbal insults, very few, if any, knockout game hate. Hardly an epidemic. The problem is not hate crimes by white citizens, but wholesale discrimination against them by liberal educational institutions who stereotype them in an effort to restrict their admissions.
Pretty tough keeping a narrative inflated when you can’t find any white people attacking anyone.
In my development, there is a white liberal’s house that has a sign with supporting BLM and about stopping Asian Hate. It hurts my head to know that kind of cognitive disconnect can exist in the world. Nearly every story in the media about an Asian getting beat up was from a person in a segment of the black community.
RE: Pretty tough keeping a narrative inflated when you can’t find any white people attacking anyone.
That’s why the narrative has been changed to verbal abuse. That way, we can have lots of anti-Asian “cases” to point to.
But do we have video proof of these?
I hope folks realize this whole phony Asian Hate movement was spun up by the Chinese Communist Party to divert attention from China and its spreading of the virus. Any time anyone criticizes the CCP, the response will be it’s racist Asian Hate.
Violence against Asians is exactly the same as violence against whites, and it’s committed by the same people (who cannot be named).
These “people”, these TRAITORS, have NO conscience, NO SOULS, NO GOODNESS, IN THEM!!!!
Note how they include verbal attacks along with physical attacks. A physical attack is an actual attack. A verbal attack may not have actually happened or may be misrepresented for political purposes. It does provide a way distort who is beating who...
“Crimes” is too specific a word to deal with. Throw the word “incident” in and you’ve got more room, at least a cubic light year (lyó) or two, to distort the truth with.
“...can have “long-term consequences for racial solidarity.”
This is similar to the solidarity that blacks and hispanics have—only in the racial hucksters’ minds. On the ground things are very different.
The left has this trait of repeating a fantasy over and over in the belief that it becomes true after a while. Like the idea that not all ‘birthing persons’ are women for example.
evil whites posing as black youth attacking Asians, don’t go to the videotape just believe
