Just wait for more crimes targeting asians to happen in the US.

In fact, we probably haven't even seen the worst of it yet, and it's gonna hit everyone who look 'asian'.
But why did you hit me? I am Hong Kongnese!! I am Taiwanese!! Etc..But according to the immortal words from one of America's foremost philosopher, Chris Tucker

Ppl on this sub still take fake news at face value, smh. SCMP is mostly fake news, or sourced from fake news. Clearly western fake news wants to spin this angle as Chinese aggressive against wanwanese, the shooter probably got into some bad arguments with some wanwanese ppl, nothing to do with China at all.
Fake news= disinformation and misinformation campaign. You know that, and I know that. Most people on this sub is aware of it but the news like this from SCMP are being spread and disseminated far and wide on purpose for a political goal. Which am assuming you are more than aware of and reasons why: Geopolitics.

What am doing or at least I think most of us here are doing is just being vigilant.

Yea I don't mean you, I was just disappointed the first 5 replies to this fake news in this thread were in agreement with the propaganda message instead of questioning it.

India is cancelling or having issues with a lot of military programs. I think this is a reflection of deep economic trouble in India.
Recently we had a "coal shortage" which was actually a failure to pay for coal and have adequate stock. And now we will have issues with wheat and perhaps other foodstuffs after the heat wave.

I doubt Russia would have issues supplying these helicopters if necessary. They did have issues with imports of helicopter engines from Ukraine like 8 years ago but they managed to put the VK-2500 engine, to replace Ukrainian helicopter engine imports, in serial production several years back.
do you think the helicopters operating in Ukraine will not need new engines. no one has managed this scale of operation after Vietnam war. the machines have more staying power in air as they using external fuel tanks. export is way down the priority now.
than there are other areas that need attention.

To be fair, a mass shooting where one person dies is hardly worth scrutiny in America, I'm surprised it even made the news. It's not even the biggest mass shooting of the week. There will be zero geopolitical consequences from this because it occurs on a nearly daily basis at this point. He didn't even bother write a manifesto, ffs.

If he killed more than we'd give the story more scrutiny.

If US can blame somebody for their stupid mistakes, theyll do.

That's nothing to what's coming. Republicans in 2024 will be the real shtstorm

If they don't put the Chinese in camps I would be extremely surprised

Here is another problem with their “China is indirectly responsible for the shooting”:

In this

, they noted that “Chou had also lived in Taiwan in his youth as was ‘not well received,’ which may have fueled his hatred of” Taiwan. Yet they claim that he “emigrated from China many years ago and lived in numerous cities around the country”.

Here is the catch though. Since he is 68 years old, assuming he is from mainland China, he wouldn’t be able to live in Taiwan in his youth since:
1. China kept their doors locked until 1979 ( he would have been 25 if he were lucky enough to immigrate out of China to the US).
2. The mainland and Taiwan didn’t allow people to travel between those two lands until 1987 (he would have been 34 by that time).
3. The age range for the youth is officially 15-24, but “youth” is commonly applied to teenagers and kids.

One can say that he may have been one of the Chinese who illegally ran to Hong Kong in the 60’s, but those people most likely (like 99.99%) would support Taiwan. Plus, Hong Kong was part of the UK as a colony. So, officially, he wouldn’t have “emigrated” from China to the US.

The only way to resolve this issue is that he moved from Taiwan to the mainland in his post youth years and then to the US, but that doesn’t suit their agenda.
