This is not true. In my experience, most Chinese Americans who immigrated before the 21st century are very political, you just don’t really hear about it cause we don’t really talk about it outside our community. The Chinese community in America has traditionally always been strongly anti communist and pro ROC. It’s why even today, you’ll still see more ROC flags than communist flags in Chinatown (you’ll probably see extra amounts of them rn since double ten day is coming up). I’ve grown up and lived in different Chinese communities across the country and this has always been the case. You can see this in our media too (created and published by Chinese in America), it’s overwhelmingly anti CCP and pro democracy

Of course, things are kind of shifting now. The CCP is trying to influence the politics in our overseas communities by doing things like setting up organizations like this, funding family/hometown associations, and paying people to set up pro communist rallies (there were lots of these in 2019 during the HK protests). They’re also definitely surveilling us, a friend of my dads got a phone call from the Chinese police asking for tips about a political post he shared online (even though this guy is an American citizen, lives in Brooklyn, and immigrated over 30 years ago). I see more communist flags in the Chinatowns with new immigrants now, but I would say most of the Chinese community in this country are still strongly anti CCP
