    Racism is a part of it, they’re not the communist party of China, they’re the Chinese Communist (party), playing up the yellow peril and the red threat at once and then dropping off with the party part at the end which they couldn’t care less about. It centers and racializes it. We’re not just fighting commies, we’re fighting Chinese commies.

      I definitely think racism is a big part of it, but now I wonder if they do the same to other communist parties.
