I hope this means less Sinophonia and not copying the government’s authoritarianism lol
I wanna highlight this:
“Appreciation does not erase the racism that many Chinese people grew up with,” said Elise Zeng, 28, from Brooklyn, New York. A video she posted critiquing the social media phenomenon was liked by more than 36,000 people.
She recalls how during the COVID-19 pandemic she was afraid for her parents stepping out of the house because they heard about people getting attacked just walking down the street. At the time, many Asians reported being assaulted or verbally abused by people who blamed East Asians for the spread of the virus.
“Those experiences don’t just disappear because Chinese culture is suddenly cool and trendy,” she said.
I really hope my future children can go through school in the west without ever being called “ching chong” or kids do the racist “pull their eyes back” bullshit…
But like… the reality is: Obama being president for 8 years didn’t prevent George Floyd from getting murdered by a white cop.
It’s an SCP. The containment procedure is to livestream his location at all times and make it legal for everyone to beat him up.
