Asians are now the fastest-growing ethnic group in California, according to new U.S. Census data.

"We are a community of immigrants and we are growing," said Mai Vang, Sacramento city's first Asian councilwoman. "When we look at our city services, are we truly meeting the needs of our community? Not just our Asian community, but our Black, our Latino; Indigenous. That's going to be really important."

"The surge of racism against Asians continues," said Dr. Russell Jeung, professor of Asian American Studies and co-founder of Stop AAPI Hate. "We've reached over 9,000 incidents of racism nationwide."

Jeung added that white nationalist sentiments are driving the attacks.

The attacks on Asians in Oakland's China Town are being carried out by white nationalists? Who knew?

Who the f@ is attacking Asians? I’ve never had an inclination to dislike them, and I don’t know any who do. This sounds like a “democrats don’t like high IQ minorities” issue more so than anything else.

Or is this a “protect the execrable chicoms issue? All commies should GTH sooner than later, doesn’t matter who they are or where they are from.

And Asians were another group that Trump either equaled or bettered his vote tally in 2020 versus 2016.

Scapegoating, part of their escalation toward genocide.

This is the same as the fake ‘islamaphobai’ that was claimed post 9/11.

It was created to shut people up and make them ashamed so they wouldn’t point the finger at the criminals.

China is probably pushing this fake asian attack story so they can continue their spying and invasion without consequence.

Is there really an increase attack on Asians ? Is it racially motivated ? Or are some groups trying to get victim points trying to claim racism ? Are they being attacked more than any other group?
I hate to break the news but diversity isn’t our strength and multiculturalism doesn’t work

[ealgeone]

Not just our Asian community, but our Black, our Latino; Indigenous.

********

ummmmm.....missed someone.

Yup, you can add one more. My Filipino wife took off to LA as soon as she had her green card in hand. So, she added one more to their numbers.

They are under attack by blacks but of course they’re too big of chickens**** to say that

Whacko world these fools live in

"said Dr. Russell Jeung, professor of Asian American Studies and co-founder of Stop AAPI Hate" Well to start with, anyone self identifying as some sort of hyphenated American proves they have no concept of being an American by placing their DIVIDED loyalty before American. I have zero problem with any AMERICAN of Asian origin but know any and all hyphenated-Americans will at best always be inferior Americans.

Jeung added that white nationalist sentiments are driving the attacks.

What this misinformation does is make Asians even more vulnerable to attacks - b/c it sure ain't "White Nationalists" that are attacking Asians.

Asian friends tell me Asians are very aware as to whom is doing the attacking, despite what their "leaders" and the likes of Gavin Newsom (may he go down in the recall - got my sample ballot yesterday) tell them.

[Bon of Babble]

Not just our Asian community, but our Black, our Latino; Indigenous. That's going to be really important.

For the White Community...nothing.

Once these racists and bigots get into positions of power in the statehouse, they're going to become even more vicious and vindictive toward the White Community.

Jeung added that white nationalist sentiments are driving the attacks.

Not whites themselves. Somehow the few white nationalists are telepathically controlling blacks and making them attack Asians

[butlerweave]

Chinese Communist Party Spies ?

[Let's Roll]

Right, the dims don’t like them because they are apparently immune to the racism of math.

[ridesthemiles]

Missed the ones PAYING the taxes.

Bingo! Correct!

Every news article I've seen about Asians being attacked, reveals that the attackers are blacks. Even from personal accounts from friends and relatives, are that attackers are blacks. You can analyze it in black and white. Same as blacks on whites. My wife is Chinese-American, and when she was younger got attacked and beaten by blacks, simply because she was Chinese. Same for her siblings, even recently.
