Context: The post was about how Tiktok was promoting minors sexualizing themselves for men and grooming them for sex work and etc (which I completely agree with). There was a sinophobic comment on the post though for no god damn reason. Everything that’s related to China somehow has an evil plot to it and how they’re trying to sabotage the west. This is yellow peril in the 21st century, and this is a horrific thing to promote. If circumstances were different and ripe, they would be thinking that Jews or other POC are responsible for societies’ woes.
Bold of you to assume they don’t.
Exactly that. Right now, the enemy du jour are Russian and Chinese folk-- but I guarantee you, if China and Russia were to “go back to sleep” as I hear anglos putting it all the time, that enemy du jour would become Black and Mexican folk just like it was between the 90s and early 00s.
Bigots are occasionally good at multitasking.
A fair point to raise; it’s more like an aggro table.
It was also Muslims, and still is depending on geography and political motives. Apparently, the empire is concerned about the Muslims in China, but step over the border and suddenly they are evil again.
