This is the unfortunate truth that pushes me away from protesting. I wanna be out there, but my mom has definitely expressed that she doesn't want me to and that people like us get thrown in jail and have our lives ruined. I did my part by voting at least. I guess living is a form a protest for me now.
Where do Asians fit in on this? 🤔
(Pretty sure I can't be at a protest right now, it's immediate "CCP Spy" false accusations)
Honestly, it would be great to see asian folks protest en masse. I have no idea how to put this without sounding ridiculously offensive, but it's... more of a subversion of the stereotype. Like, racist folks that I've seen use asian slurs don't really expect widespread civil disobedience like they do from (say) African Americans.
The other part is that 'asian' is a umbrella term for a wildly diverse collection of people which, again, a lot of folks are ignorant of.
MAGA folks can scream 'communist' on Twitter, sure, but I think that would backfire when directed to to a pile of Indian Americans, Korean Americans, Vietnamese Americans, Taiwanese Americans, and so on.
...But yeah. Again, I hate sounding so shallow, but if you look han chinese and are protesting pretty much alone, its seems more scary than being pasty-faced white.
Top: Old Hippies And Stupid Leftists You Can Ignore
Bottom: AAAAAAH!! SHOOT THEM! SHOOT THEM!!
Oooo haven't seen this one. Nice.
The “white hippies” are doing what allies should do.
Like the white woman who put a Mexican flag sticker on her car.
I wish I could do this, but I'm part of a mixed family, most entered the US this generation. I don't want an extra target if they are in the car with me.
That’s why people who don’t have those risk factors should do it, so you and people in similar circumstances can keep the people you love safe.
I personally feel like black people took the hit during BLM pretty hard, it's time for us whities to step up. Hippies or not.
I recently watched a document on Woodstock 99. At the end it turned into a full blown riot. They destroyed, burned down or stole everything that they could. When the police showed up they told them to disperse. It was a nu metal festival full of white teenagers. Imagine what would happen if that was a hip hop festival.
The liberal mind virus strikes again.
PS: I'm criticizing from the left, put down your pitchforks.
