#antiasian — Public Fediverse posts

I bought some frozen sticky rice wraps from Fairway Market; they're made in Vancouver. Made a quick vid about how I'm unapologetic about eating & using #MSG & how fears of it was based on #AntiAsian #AntiChinese #racism & not solid #FoodScience.

"If the science doesn’t support MSG as a dietary villain, why did so many people come to loathe and fear it? The answer lies not in biology, but in bias. The very name “Chinese Restaurant Syndrome” points to the misconception’s insidious core: it singled out Chinese cuisine (and by extension, Chinese people) as suspect. This framing tapped into old Western prejudices portraying Asian food as unhygienic, exotic, or untrustworthy. As Korean-American chef David Chang observes, avoidance of MSG became “a cultural construct” – essentially a socially accepted excuse to distrust foreign cooking under the guise of health concerns. In plainer terms, it was ignorance and xenophobia masquerading as wellness"

[ #AntiAsian #violence is tremendously intertwined with the #fetishization of #AsianIdentity. Fetishization of #Asian people in the US shows itself in #misogynistic #stereotypes, the #ModelMinorityMyth, and at its worst, racially-driven violence. These phenomena, in turn, can cause #RacialTrauma and deeply affect #MentalHealth.

In this article, I would like to discuss how fetishization can drive Anti-Asian sentiments, hate, and violence.]

@specked @TruthSandwich This is the contact information of the CIA. Do you want to report me or yourself? You are "scaring" me. 🤣 #racism #bullying #joke #IDF #israel #gaza #palesitinians #cia #fail #funny #racist #nazism #judeonazism #bully #antiasian #antichinese #hate #hatecrime https://www.cia.gov/report-information/

@TruthSandwich @specked Why are supporters of #israel mostly #farright #antiAsian #racists You can be #racist against #palestinians and be supported by the media. But your #racism against #asians and #chinese is unacceptable by today's standard. #judeoNazism is #racism. Please do not be act against all other #races. We all know that #holocaust was real. So, please do not do it to #palestinians. A Jewish life has the same value as a Palestinian's life, no more, no less. Please respect #humanity
