Here's the data - https://www.city-journal.org/anti-asian-violence-separating-truth-from-narrative

Let's see how you try to spin and hide facts, since you people don't think of Asians as worthy of being defended.

> The data indicate just how misleading the narrative of white-on-Asian violence really is. While black perpetrators account for 27.5 percent of violent attacks against Asians, Asians commit less than 0.1 percent of violent attacks against blacks, indicating little role for proximity. Most violent attacks against individuals of a particular racial group are committed by other members of that group—except for Asians, where a plurality is committed by blacks. In fact, blacks are responsible for 305 percent more violent crime against Asians than neighborhood demographics would predict, while whites and Hispanics commit significantly fewer attacks against Asians than would be expected.

Literally no one is saying asians arent worthy of being defended. So often these sorts of stories are totally blown out of proportion and capitalized upon by conservatives and/or racists trying to rile people up. The link you posted is interesting if true- unfortunately articles published by right wing think tanks are rarely accurate.

Right wing think tanks are absolute garbage.

But that doesn't mean far lefties can also be absolute garbage.

Yeah sure but theres basically no far left in this country at all, let alone far left think tanks influencing policy and manipulating huge swaths of the country. There are however well funded and well coordinated far right organizations doing all of those things at an unprecedented scale.
