As an international students from mainland, i don't really expect people here to all out pro-China. But if you are as woke as you think you are and you know that western propaganda is harmful to asian communities in general, I would expect that people here should be able to see through the propaganda and form their own point of views. If you still can't accept what Chinese or Chinese government are doing after finishing your own research, I am fine with whatever opinions you have. But what i can't accept is on one hand, you are decrying the harmful western propaganda toward asians, on the other hand, you will accept all the western propaganda about China.
Also, i believe the rise of China definitely has an influence over asian identity. China is the biggest country in Asian and had been the most dominant power in Asia for really long time. Thus, its influence over other Asian identities should also be strong. Therefore, the rise of China is basically how Asians with asian cultures are cultivating their own point of view, their own ways of lives in modern societies, which are largely influenced by western cultures and values. At the end of day, the success of China tells other Asians that there is nothing wrong being Asians and you don't have to reject your own cultures to succeed in modern societies.

I do not agree with your post, in particular your second paragraph. On one hand, sure it's great to see an Asian country rise above, but China also has imperialist influences. It uses its influences in a very similar manner as US imperialism and its rise can also signal tension in other Asian countries. Like the original post claims, it's much more complex than white v Asian; Asian colonialism and imperialism towards other Asian countries is just as threatening as other forms of colonialism and imperialism. So it's natural for other countries to feel just as threatened by China as the US. I do not agree with some HK protesters attempting to side with former colonizers or the US, but that doesn't mean that I don't think HK people should have claims over their own government. It doesn't have to be between US/Britain or the CCP. I believe neither should also be a viable option.

IMO, I find it's really disgusting is that every whites (not those in HK), because all their knowledge of it is watch western news, is to side the disgusting cockroaches. So, how do you educate a non-HK "democracy" supporter about the whole thing, they are so naive
One liberal guy, I pinned him down on the floor because of his naive views (crying police brutality). As that result, I was banned from that social group (though I really couldn't about being at anymore)
There is this sexpat streamer, who only being there for a year. His full time job now is streaming protests and airing his anti-China views. He even has the gall to defend rioters for their actions, whether it's destroying properties, claiming that they are "fighting oppressive forces" and it seems every one of these WM journalists are all the same too
Now you know why this protest is a breeding ground for any anti-white movement and I grown hating liberals because of this.

My honest "impartial" opinion, China (CCP) has been using this event as a prop for nationalism sensation since average mainlander already has some bitter feeling about Hong Kong. Western (mostly US) media was using this as a distraction from current domestic political fiasco and almost certainly side with "peaceful protesters". At the end of day, it is the average Hong Kong people have to suffer. Your view on this issue is exactly where you ass sit at.
I have great sympathy to the average Hong Kong people, but this has no good ending for them. Meanwhile, the greatest hypocrisy on Reddit I have personally witness:
(1) Predict "Tiananmen 2.0 tank roll in bloodbath" since June, and four months later, all they can grasp is just a couple of suicides with hearsay. Two people were shot, one by rubber and the other by live ammo, and the latter video clearly not supporting protester's cause therefore even the protesters quietly played down the video.
(2) The "harvest organ" propagated by Fa Lun Gong (China Tribunal) is dialed to the max level in the last couple of days, and mixed with "concentration camp", "Tibet". I bet you give average Redditor a map and they can't point out HK, Taiwan, Xinjiang, Tibet using their fat fingers.
(3) The used-to-be subtle racist comment towards Asian/Chinese is now walking in the broad daylight, even the "eat dog" comment from D&C is now justified as CCP manipulating people to boycott.
On the other note, I think the whole NBA thing is blew out of proportion on the CCP side, absolutely unnecessary and a lose-lose for everyone.

I'm Chinese-American and was born in the states. I have been called every racial slur in the book "Chink, gook, communist, wumao, 50 cent army, dog eater, slant,etc" even by other Asians, because I support the Hong Kong Police and rule of law. These rioters are violent, and this whole riot wasn't even necessary but is being encouraged by white people(with ulterior motives) who are racist af against Chinese. These white people support burning down the whole city, but are AGAINST giving these rioters UK,Australian,American passports and citizenship. The irony is hilarious, and the motive becomes so obvious. Hong Kong is just a pawn for westerners to hold back and attack China.
