This is horrific. It should be noted that these “isolated, unrelated” brutal attacks on Asians began early in the pandemic—directly due to right-wing anti-Asian hate rhetoric. We stopped talking about it as people got distracted by the elections; the actual attacks never paused.



The fact that MEET THE PRESS couldn’t find an Asian American to speak on “Asians being politically silenced / rendered invisible in the media and thus made vulnerable to bigoted rhetoric and violent attack” speaks for itself They should’ve just aired a yellow square for an hour
