Growing up in Nova Scotia, we didn't have sunday shopping until the mid 2000s. Religious people claimed that by having things open on sundays, it meant that people were further from god and therefor families would collapse. That was a serious argument I heard.

The maritimes were abandoned by capital like the Rust Belt, so there's a whole gamut of psychos from there, some of them Nazi, some of them better. You can buy a mansion in Halifax for the fraction of the price of a Vancouver or Toronto condo

You also find racist immigrants too. I've met a lot of rich people of Chinese and Indian backgrounds that loving hate black people and muslims, plus they really, really REALLY hate gay and trans people a lot.

We got WeChuds in the Bay Area too. They're a force in local politics, they get pandered to and used and everything. See for example the lovely and sadly unfinished tale of Josephine Zhao.

The south-Asian conservative immigrants don't have a cute name yet to my knowledge.

i read a poll that said Indian-Americans are the biggest supporters of the democrats of all the major Asian-American groups and it's not all that close. something like 75%. national geography probably has to do with a lot of that since you've got a lot of them in the NYC metro area, particularly NJ

Chinese-Americans are pretty all over the place politically but they do tend to be racist. there's a neighborhood in South Brooklyn that used to be exclusively Italians but has given way to Chinese and Russians in the past couple decades. the faces have changed there but the anti-black racism is the same

I think part of it might have a bit to do with how much supremacism is baked into Chinese culture in the general sense. The old "Middle Kingdom" thing. Which is lacking in regards to South Asia for the most part.

Also South Asian Americans are more likely to get racism from both being brown, and idiots just assuming they're Muslim Middle Easterners (particularly Sikh males), so I have no doubt that plays a role in not warming up to the GOP.

Basically overall the Chinese Americans are more likely to end up on the right side of "the line", even if they'll never be accepted as white like the Italians and Russians. And like those two, once you get enough leeway from the mainstream culture you might just go bugfuck racist to try and solidify the deal and prove your place. Story of large segments of Italian/Irish/White Ethnic America right there.

Asian Americans as a group support Dems over Repubs at about a 2:1 ratio so I kind of think the recent posts are barking up the wrong tree, even if there are a significant number of chuds within the group.

We already know from 2008-2016 that republicans will never be able to pivot away from white supremacy, even though all they need is a slight modification to keep like 90% of their hatreds.

Of course. But the series of posts here seemed to be painting a picture that Chinese and other Asian Americans tended to be racist and/or anti gay/LGBT on the average which is very much not the case and I wanted to try and correct that impression.

yeah, I think she yelled at her driver because she thought they were a Muslim and in response they just banned her entirely.

It's certainly worth emphasizing.

We're talking about a case where axes of identity are being used to divide the left; obviously, fostering a stereotype won't help to solve the problem.

Are there organized terf events where they try to intimidate people or give a talk about taking away the rights of trans people? I get that the far right is viciously anti-trans, as is the right generally, but does the liberal terf contingent do anything other than on an individual basis?

Not so much in the US. But for some reason TERF bullshit is big in England.

All you need to know is that she ratted out a hacker group that was loving with the feds to the FBI, is in general a nasty piece of poo poo, and has been accused of having raped someone. It's loving bizarre that she's accepted by any leftists at all.

Angie and Peter did a huge long chat about this just yesterday

All I know is a bunch of LeftTubers are on Angie's side and she says she did nothing besides say " I know and like Peter." She has no relation to the accused apart from that person being one of her many Patrons.

For that Angie got her PayPal hacked and frozen and was accused of being a rapist.
