A serious question to all liberals, progressives, leftists who blame anti-Asian sentiment/actions on "white supremacy" (enemy, suspect)

[Sprawling_Homeowner]

The left, which speaks often if not always about "systemic racism" in the United States, which has members who agreed with (and participated in) the defacing and destruction of statues of historical figures on grounds the persons those images portrayed were bigots, which denounces police brutality against people of color (even when the facts show it was not a case of police brutality), and which aggressively condemned language that targeted China for Sars-cov-2 on grounds it was racist, speaks and acts as the moral defender of the oppressed.

So, if you, C-D poster, are a liberal, a leftist, a progressive, and if you denounce and oppose racism against people of color: what is your reaction to the fact that many attacks against Americans of Asian ancestry and Asian immigrants living in the U.S. have been perpetrated by nonwhites, including Hispanics and oftentimes by blacks?

If it had been a white young man beating up an Asian young man in the NYC subway, or a bulky, large white man kicking and pushing and pummeling a 65-year-old Asian woman on her way to church, or two white teenagers carjacking the Uber vehicle of a 66-year-old Asian immigrant man who then died, or white young men pushing elderly Asians to the ground and in some cases killing them, you leftists would protest "white supremacy."

If the victims were black and not Asian, you would be blocking intersections and shouting "no justice, no peace!"

But when it's Hispanics and blacks doing this to Asians - why are you silent? Where are your demonstrations, where are your signs, where are your protests?

It's ironic, furthermore, that black CONSERVATIVES are speaking out. You however are as quiet as a graveyard at midnight.

The leftist is just like everyone else, motivated by self-interest. They don't love minorities, they hate the system. White-Supremacy just means "the system". Which is why any race or ethnicity can be a white-supremacist.

There are leftists who will give a half-hearted condemnation of violence against Asians, but they can't go too far because they need to keep blacks as allies against their true enemy.

Leftists are hypocrites. And they've latched on to the "white bogeyman" trope with full force. Nothing can shake their conviction that everything is the fault of white racism and white supremacy. Related to this, they see blacks as perpetual victims of white racism who are incapable of being racist themselves.

As for Asians, the leftists don't care about them one bit, once they've gotten their votes. It mystifies me why so many Asians support the political party that works against their own interests, and actively coddles the very groups who are verbally and physically attacking them.

I never understood the way Asian-Americans vote for the party which supports institutionalized discrimination at the university level against their children.

But I know that white supremacists will use this to their advantage.

Also, this is why we didn't want trump to keep saying "China virus" because idiots think it's a green light to see anyone that looks chinese as an enemy.

It's another administration now, and besides, there were plenty of black-on-Asian crimes before the pandemic. The left was as silent as ..... a graveyard at midnight.

The victim's race is immediately described, but despite a photograph showing the perpetrator was black, the same notification describes the perpetrator as 'an individual.'

[Sprawling_Homeowner]

The victims are:...


The perpetrators are:...


These perpetrators don't look too white to me. So much for your disgusting and shameless lie of "white supremacy" being behind the attacks against Asians in the United States, leftists.

We know what is going on OP but we are not allowed to say it out loud.



When it comes to the Liberal Left if not for Double Standards they wouldn't have any standards at all.
