Previously: I'm at a frat party school in Southern California, and this is my previous post describing the school's leftist student organization. In addition to being busy healing my own trauma from the car accident these past few days, I've discovered that the "leader" of the organization (a second generation Chinese immigrant) and one of the Chinese students are posting a lot of anti-Chinese (shit like xinjiang prison camp) content in their group chat. The Chinese student introduced himself as being from mainland and not a green card holder, just an international student.Stuff like that is actually pretty common in US college, I don't get mad most of the time, ~~I just joke about how they're just jealous that we can drive a Mercedes go to party everyday without paying student loans~~! What really pisses me off about this is that this Chinese student is a queer who always shares that "living in China scares him", but the inaccurate anti-Chinese content he distributes puts more Chinese students in danger. Anti-Chinese sentiment is growing in the United States, and many Chinese students were racially attacked in the aftermath of the epidemic. The organization touts itself as being "for a better world," but at the same time it puts innocent international students at risk. I was losing patience with them and at the same time feeling scared, what if they were going to attack me(Psychologically and Physically)? Finally, if individuals from this organization(Probably nobody will) are reading this post, fuck u!You're all bunch of racist assholes!

I mean, what are you expecting in the western world, anyways?

Now relating to this, economic policy of the U.S, and to an extent, the West, influences thus heavily the migrant policy they have here...

Historically, they've taken cheap migrant labor, if not intelligentsia and some comprador bourgeoisie into their country, then during the Cold War, anti-communist reactionary diaspora, before synthesizing these policies so that they get the best of both worlds: a modern non-western Global South diaspora that are now likely pro-west if not anti-government to their own ethnic country, pro-liberalism, and ironically enough, probably pro-ancien regime...

That, and pro-western propaganda keeps seeping in around

It's a mixed hodge podge, and I guess one international Indian student of a working class background who directly hails from Kerela is different from an ethnic Indian whose parents were at least British collab-intelligentsia, if not comprador bourgeoisie in Kenya....

I suggest you ask SadArtemis, tankiedesantski, et other users who are of Chinese origins about their thoughts?
