Reply to comment by bbqcornnuts312 in Jewish communities brace as white supremacists plan Feb. 25 ‘Day of Hate’ by Souperplex

It’s the same thing with anti-Asian hate. Thousands of Asian Americans being viciously attacked and nobody cares. But if there’s some way to blame it on White Supremacy and by association, the right, then the issue hits the front page. Nobody actually cares about the victims unless it can be weaponized to further their own sociopolitical interests and agenda.

Except the vast majority of anti-Asian hate crimes were perpetrated by white people. So it definitely is apt to call it a case of white supremacy.

You people sometimes…

Yeah, no.

I've lived in New York my whole life and have been attacked many, many times for my race. I don't recall ever it being a White person violently attacking me. I've hundreds of Asian American family members and friends who live in New York, and they all have similar experiences.

Of course you'd dismiss the above as just anecdotes, so let's use the cold, hard statistics.

White Americans make up 76% of the US population and are responsible for 24% of the crimes committed against Asian Americans every year. Black Americans make up 13% of the US population and are responsible for 27% of the crimes committed against Asian Americans every year. Adjusted for percentage of population, that means Black Americans, compared to Whites, are 6.5x more likely to attack Asians.

Interesting note: Asian Americans commit less than 10 crimes per year against Black Americans. It is such a rare occurrence that they cannot even reliably record a number for it in crime statistics. This makes the ratio of crimes committed against each other between the two groups to be anywhere from 5,000 to 50,000. That is to say for every one crime Asian Americans commit against Black Americans, there are 5,000-50,000 crimes committed in return.

Beg to differ.

But what else can I suspect from someone who defends Kyle rittenhouse

Let's see. Should I trust the official US Department of Justice Statistics, or should I trust a Google Document from an obviously biased source using extremely limited set of data to reach the conclusion they already wanted? And why is physical violence limited to "spitting, coughing, and sneezing"? Why does the "research" purposely omit all the incidents of Asian Americans being brutally attacked and even killed? This is absolute garbage.

I guess nobody taught you confirmation or selection bias in school. Idiots like you can even believe the earth is flat. And you'll Google until you find an article by some hack journalist that agrees with you.

Is that the 'study' where they looked at news sources that identified the race of the perpetrator and skipped those that didn't? So, for example, there were 100 articles on hate crime attacks with 10 mentioning white and 1 mentioning black, they'd say whites are 10x more likely to commit hate crime, while ignoring 89% of the articles.

It's also the study that compared "shunning" to actual, criminal assault.

It's political propaganda meant to misdirect from the political actors enabling criminals to torment people, without consequence.
