I've personally witnessed very similar sentiments, but the xenophobia's usually more veiled (I live not too far) (Thanks for numbering the tweets PPJ, makes it quite a bit easier to quote the right one)

https://twitter.com/TeddyDief/status/926306608711393280 Anybody see this? I checked his account and caught it, refreshed a few seconds later to see it back at 41m or whatever. But apparently others are seeing it lower, 10k, and climbing, as though it's being repopulated. Maybe someone's continuing to gently caress with his account? edit: whoop nope 4,026.

Woah it's at 5.5k for me. It might just be some wonky system backend that happens when you basically have to repopulate an account that was temporarily deleted/banned.

Also Japan is dealing with its own issues of Far-Right politics as far as I'm aware.

The GOP is following the historically already well traveled trail of a national conservative movement or consensus party backsliding into identitarian nativism as it radicalizes. No matter who the original targets were, it never, ever stops at that target, at that race, at that identity or sexual alignment or religion. Asians are not white. Asians will be targeted and denigrated, even given their "model minority" status and how earlier phases of identitarianism will point to Asians and say "well this is why we hate the blacks and latinos, is because they can't behave themselves like these good coloreds." It always, always progresses to how you were good and all and you behaved all nice-like, but at the end of the day, you're not us. Sorry. This is actually an interesting element of the progression of american conservatism into nativism -- not but a few decades ago, Asians were spectrum agnostic, some were conservative. Nope. One extra generation of having to deal with republican apologism for racism and the practical effects of the discrimination and othering it produces, Asians ran screaming to progressivism to join every other nonwhite race group. The GOP turbodunked all their nonwhite identity in one generation.

Your hierarchy of who racists hate the most is only as accurate as the most recent Fox News/Breitbart/RWM talking point and scapegoat. China is becoming a bigger and bigger boogieman and tons of tech folks never got over the Indian outsourcing meme, so you probably shouldn't get too comfortable with that model minority concept. After all, before 9/11, most of America considered Middle Easterners as part of that same demographic.

PhazonLink posted:So what would these atomz be used for? Selling to russia? Trump has said he's in favor of expanding our nuclear arsenal. I don't know if the amount of uranium being mined is a potential limiting factor to that, but I'd guess not. According to the article, uranium mines aren't even profitable at the moment, no new mines would be opened for quite a while, so it's not even a sloppy blowjob to industry, it's just a "gently caress you" to environmentalists and people who believe government regulations can be a positive thing.
