This is the ugly side of the virus
I have seen this in the 80's, the Russians were spit on.
I have seen this after 9-11, anyone from the M.E region that looked "Moslem" got spit on
Now it's the Chinese
They always want to blame someone, I really worry about the safety of Chinese Americans. I think just like after 9-11
several of them will get killed. Unfortunately some people who are not Chinese ie Korean-Japanese
will get killed because they will get mistaken for Chinese.
This sucks big time, Chinese Americans try to stand strong it's not your fault your government and Xi Xinping sucks.
My country has a racism problem, in case you haven't noticed. Now I've been called a "communist" before
but nobody ever spit on me, I never feared for my life, and I am always refereed to as an American, without any hyphenations.
You can be a fifth generation and some are, from the 1848 Gold Rush but they will always be CHINESE-American, never just American.
Why do you ask, that title"American" without any hyphenations. is only reserved for white people.
What my dads Chinese American boss said stuck. My dad, "I know how you feel, I too am a foreigner." Him, You don't because you are white, all you have to do
is have a kid and your kid will be an American, our great, great, great grandchildren will still be Chinese American."
One word, perspective.
