Notes

The DNC’s account just used a pinching finger emoji to mock Hung Cao, Trump’s acting Navy Secretary - a Vietnamese American - in a post that carries an unmistakable double meaning about Asian men’s bodies.

Anti-Asian stereotypes don’t get a pass just because they come from the left.

This is a trope with a long, ugly history. Imagine this aimed at a Black or Latino Trump appointee. The outrage would be immediate and justified.

Asian Americans are not fair game for racist “dunks.” Not from the right, not from the resistance.

The person running this strategy is Paulina Mangubat @paulinavevo.bsky.social, a Filipina American woman. She and the DNC needs to answer for this - we’re waiting.

Billions will die, but billionaires will be fine. They shouldn’t be.
