Asian Racial Hate Crime Increasing!

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-56937299

Asian hate crime is increasing rapidly during the pandemic, people of Chinese origin are being blamed for the virus! This inexcusable nastiness was started by that evil psycho, Trump. Racists are the scum of the earth and should be treated as such.

I think that's in the US not here. There was a spike of discrimination here against Chinese people at the start of the pandemic, but that was a year ago.

Yes, I remember that too, Annie.
I don't doubt it will be transferred to Indian people now.

Another crap report from the BBC. Months out of date - probably over a year.

Initially there was fear about Chinese people in the UK but that very soon subsided. It wasn't based on race though it was based on common sense because of the frequency of which catering staff and their families travel to visit China and Covid is originating in Wuhan. On that basis your mini-rant against the very best POTUS that America has had for years is nonsense.

As for racial awareness, it has its place.

Trump still believes and behaves like he is POTUS. Delusional people do not make good presidents. (my opinion only. No debate required )

Better than senile old farts like Greasy Feely Old Joe though.
