From the New York Times:
He was the elderly Oriental man who died in San Francisco when a black youth blitzed him from across the street last winter, which set off a period of concern about violence against old Asians, which diminished as it became apparent what race made up the majority of attackers.
His death helped awaken the nation to a rise in anti-Asian violence. For his grieving family, the reckoning hasn’t gone far enough.
By Jaeah Lee
Published Aug. 17, 2021For weeks, Monthanus Ratanapakdee urged her parents to please. stay inside. An uneasiness had hung over her ever since a mob descended on the Capitol early that month
Good start!
, though really, people had been acting crazy for a year. Throughout 2020, multiple strangers had come at her seemingly out of nowhere.
Strangers are obviously white. After all, whites make up the vast majority of the population in San Francisco.
That January, an old man yelled at her in Golden Gate Park — something about a virus and going back to her country — while she watched her sons, then 10 and 7, run in a playground. In February, two joggers, women, yelled something about germs at her older son as he played on a dock with a friend. In March, just before the country went into lockdown, a woman swung at Monthanus outside a hospital; she ducked the punch before running across the street. In November, another old man spat in her direction as her sons rode their scooters by the bay.
Obviously, Trump’s fault for talking about the China virus. After all, nobody ever heard of mentally ill people on the streets of San Francisco before.
When Monthanus talked about these incidents, how the outside world didn’t feel safe anymore, her father would ask, Is it really that bad? A petite 84-year-old with soft white hair, Vicha Ratanapakdee was a lifelong Buddhist, the kind of person who embraced the world with open arms.
… The footage is grainy and brief: A tall figure suddenly darts across a street and slams into a much smaller one; the smaller figure crumples onto the pavement and doesn’t get back up; the white baseball cap flutters to the ground, like a leaf falling from a tree.
Finally, in the 12th long paragraph, the author gets around to mentioning in passing the race of the killer:
Shortly after Vicha was pronounced dead, Monthanus’s phone rang. A homicide detective gave his condolences and said they were planning to charge the attack as a murder. Why would you call me when my father just died? Monthanus wondered at first, her mind thick with shock. She had learned small details about the suspect from her initial conversations with the police: male, 19 years old, African American.
But then back to racism, racism, racism:
Months before the country went into lockdown, Russell Jeung, a professor of Asian American studies at San Francisco State University, came down with a bad case of the flu. … But Jeung grew wary when a doctor asked him if he had recently been to China, and again when he learned that his relatives had been marooned at a hotel near the airport after being told they couldn’t board their flight back home. “Knowing what happened with SARS, how Asians were going to get shunned, harassed,” he says, referring to the 2003 outbreak, “I was just personally and sociologically alerted to racism.”
Jeung set up search alerts for “Asian American” and “discrimination.” The results confirmed his fears. In the United States and elsewhere, private schools asked their Chinese international students not to return for the spring semester; shopkeepers turned away customers who appeared Asian; Chinatowns emptied. In late January 2020, a man died outside a restaurant in Sydney after collapsing from a heart attack. “No one helped him because they thought he had Covid,” Jeung says. After reading about an Asian American teenager in the Los Angeles area who was hospitalized in February after being bullied about Covid, Jeung contacted colleagues at two advocacy groups in California. They asked the state attorney general’s office to help them track what they believed to be a growing number of episodes. “They said they didn’t have the capacity to track racism,” Jeung says. “So we created our own website.” (The California attorney general’s office collects data on hate crimes in the state but not other cases involving verbal harassment, for example, which often don’t constitute crimes.)
Within one week of the website’s start, Stop AAPI Hate received 673 reports of verbal and physical attacks, as well as other forms of harassment, like spitting, coughing and online threats. The submissions came from 31 states and the District of Columbia, with nearly half the reports originating in California and New York. “Even without much publicity, we have already received a strong response from the community, who want their voices heard,” Jeung wrote in the group’s first report. The number of submissions grew steadily throughout the year, reaching a total of 2,800 by the end of 2020. Then the flood came.
Two days after Vicha died, Eric created a GoFundMe page to raise money for the funeral, which included a photo of Vicha and a description of his assailant derived from a mix of facts and raw emotion: “A despicable 19-year-old thug that came to his neighborhood in a stolen vehicle and decided to prove how tough he was by brutalizing a senior citizen,” Eric wrote. “Now that Mr. Vicha Ratanapakdee has died of his injuries, prosecution for this murderous hate crime is the only path to justice and community safety.” Later, as more information trickled in, Eric changed “stolen vehicle” to “a car disabled by an earlier hit-and-run”; he also replaced “thug” with “adult male,” after watching an episode of “S.W.A.T.” in which a Black cop explained the word’s racist undertones to his partner. Eric, who grew up near San Jose, described himself as someone who never thought much about race during his upbringing. (His mother is Mexican, and he identifies as mixed race; strangers often assume he is white.)
He’s heartily sorry about racistly mischaracterizing the guy who murdered his father-in-law as a “thug.”
The next morning, Eric called the tip lines for several local news stations and left messages for reporters, inviting them to the Hall of Justice, where he and Monthanus were scheduled to meet with homicide detectives. That afternoon, the couple taped their first interview, with the KTVU reporter Evan Sernoffsky, near the courthouse steps. The segment ran with Vicha’s photo and the headline “Family of 84-Year-Old Killed in S.F. Believe Attack Was Racially Motivated.”
Vicha’s story joined a cluster of reports about attacks on Asian elders in four cities. Amanda Nguyen, a prominent activist, shared Sernoffsky’s report in a viral Instagram video, along with two others, one about a 64-year-old Vietnamese woman who was robbed in San Jose and another about a 61-year-old Filipino man whose face was slashed with a box cutter on the New York subway. “The mainstream media does not spotlight our stories enough,” Nguyen said into the camera, urging her vast following to share the story and tag CNN and MSNBC. “We matter, and racism is killing us.” When a video emerged showing a 91-year-old shoved to the ground in Chinatown in Oakland, Calif., the actors Daniel Dae Kim and Daniel Wu posted a \$25,000 reward for anyone who had more information on the suspect, tweeting, “Remember Vincent Chin,” who was beaten to death by two white men in Detroit in 1982.
Vincent Chin is the Emmett Till of Asians.
… Then, on March 16, a white gunman in the Atlanta area drove to several businesses and shot eight people to death. It was the deadliest mass shooting in the country in more than a year. Six of the victims — two women of Chinese descent, four women of Korean descent — worked at the businesses targeted by the gunman, an unequivocal sign for many of those watching that he acted out of hatred, misogyny and racism.
… In March, Jeung says, Stop AAPI Hate received roughly 2,800 reports, about the same number he received in all of 2020. “We don’t know how to attribute this rise in reporting,” he told me. He believes that the attacks on the elderly and the Atlanta shootings led more people to file reports. But he also suspects that the numbers reflect an animus that only deepened during lockdown. “It’s been a year of pent-up anger and frustration directed toward Asians,” he says. “There’s been a half-million deaths. People are grieving. I think a lot of that grief and anger and scapegoating continues to be directed toward Asians.”
Or blacks have been committing far more violent crimes and getting themselves killed in car crashes much more ever since the Racial Reckoning was declared.
New images have continued to surface on a weekly, sometimes daily, basis. Some assailants have yelled slurs while throwing a punch or slashing at their victims with a knife. Others have injured or killed people without saying a word. These stories have prompted continuous news coverage and social-media obsession, and beneath it all there lurks a desire to understand what is driving the attacks — and how, exactly, race is playing a role.
The day after Monthanus and Eric’s first TV appearance, San Francisco’s district attorney charged Antoine Watson, the 19-year-old accused of shoving Vicha to death, with murder and elder abuse. Watson, the court documents state, had been cited for “reckless driving, speeding and failure to stop at a stop sign” in the hours before the attack. One witness at the scene told officers that he saw “a Black male, 18 to 30 years old,” approach and “stand over” an elderly man lying on the ground. Another witness said he heard a voice yelling: “Why you looking at me? Why you looking at me?” and then “a crushing sound.”
Watson pleaded not guilty. His public defender, Sliman Nawabi, challenged the murder charge, arguing that Watson did not intend to kill Vicha. Nawabi described the incident as an “impulsive unmotivated assault” that resulted from the mental-health breakdown of a teenager. He told me that Watson lost his job and support structure during the pandemic; in addition to attending college classes and working at FedEx, he had previously gone to therapy and taken medication. At Watson’s bail hearing, Nawabi said he recognized “the racial overtones” of the case, but added, “This false narrative that this is a targeted attack on the Asian community or an elderly man is misleading and prejudicial.” He asked the court to order a neuropsychological evaluation and proposed releasing Watson to home confinement, where his family could look after him, along with requiring therapy and counseling, so that Watson wouldn’t become “another statistic in the criminal-justice world.”
… That week, on Feb. 4, the couple spoke with San Francisco’s district attorney, Chesa Boudin, on a call. A former public defender, Boudin was part of a new wave of progressive prosecutors who entered office the year before with the promise of reform. Monthanus and Eric voted for him. Now they wanted action. “We were like, ‘Is this a hate crime?’ He was like, ‘I can’t talk about this,’” Eric says. “It was just the way that he answered the question that made me feel like he didn’t really care about our emotions, about what we were asking about.”
Boudin, who couldn’t discuss the particulars of the case, understood where Eric and Monthanus were coming from. “Any time a family suffers a violent crime, a homicide in particular, there’s questions,” Boudin told me. “Why did this happen? How could it have been prevented? Often, the natural human response is to want someone to blame for the pain that you’re experiencing.”

Like, for instance, the family of the 2 cops and security guard murdered by Chesa Boudin’s parents’ gang. Or the family of the state trooper murdered by his namesake, Joanne Chesimard aka Assata Shakur. It’s complicated, but not really.
If they voted for Boudin, this is what’s that religious term? Oh yeah, Karma.
Zero sympathy for these two.
They voted for the terrorist-progeny as their prosecutor. Guess what, he’s doing his job. You stack rank below the black thug.
And generally my response to Asian anti-white whining: “Then why are you here? Go home!”. Asians are lucky, they actually have more or less intact nations they can return to. (We white folks should be so lucky!) Think America’s racist … there’s the door.
What the NYT needs is an editor who can teach reporters and contributors how to come up with more credible narratives. But that would require editors (not to mention readers) with functioning BS detectors.
And this is war, and most people know what the first casualty of war is.
What a pack of lies starting with ” An uneasiness had hung over her ever since a mob descended on the Capitol early that month” . And now we have the Asian version of the ADL , Stop AAPI Hate .
“Remember Vincent Chin,” who was beaten to death by two white men in Detroit in 1982. ” What the hell while we’re remembering let’s remember Pearl Harbor . Oops , sorry .
"The uneasiness was hanging over her like the clouds on a dark and stormy night."
It should be euphemistic and culturally authentic, e.g. :
All that might just represent the record for signal to noise ratio for the week. Noise wins.
One pertinent fact in hundreds of words about “feelings” and mostly about Asian fear in white man lands. Are they aware there are many Asian lands where they would be safe from fear of whites (and death by blacks)?

3 points 1 Asians vote solidly democrat. 2 Asians voted for Chesa Boudin not his law and order opponent. 3 the reasons blacks aren’t attacking Whites in San Francisco anymore is that there are so few left.
The census claims San Francisco is about 40 percent asian. It’s far far more than that. It’s not just the thousands of illegals who don’t fill out the census forms. Even 6th generation California Asians don’t fill out the census forms.

It shows a slightly higher chance of a positive culture for a given viral load. But knowing that the vaccinated tend to have a higher viral load when infected negates the entire argument.
The meaningful part of the graph is the slope of the line. And it shows a slope that is - not identical - but very close between the vaccinated and unvaccinated lines. Close enough that it doesn't seem like cause for celebration.
You also have to consider that the unvaccinated are more likely to be running around with active viral load and no symptoms. This makes them even more likely to be out in the community shedding virus around the vulnerable.
I'm not an anti-vaxxer but the polarization on this issue has made people unable to to think logically about things. I think the vaccine is nothing short of a miracle, but there are reasonable concerns to be had about the way it is being presented to the public.Replies: @HA, @V. Hickel

Incidentally, while acknowledging vast, absolutely critical differences in degree, one still must wonder:
Just how many times and places was being out between ~midnight and dawn ever that prudent for anyone, let alone a female or minor alone?
“Assata” is openly a hero to the BLM terrorists that the elites promote. Never forget these people want you dead. I’m hardly a fan of cops but when they celebrate killing white cops, they’re celebrating killing whites.
They do not care when Asian-Americans are killed, as the original post illustrates, or, for that matter, when innocent Blacks or Hispanics or killed. Just as long as the members of the ruling elite are safe in their elite enclaves.
Which is why Larry Elder just might be the next governor of California. We've had enough.

In my black-averse White separatist region, you can take a walk, walk a poodle, hell, leash a canary and walk THAT. Since there are no blacks within the couple of thousands square miles around us, walk to your heart’s content, 24/7. The solution is to get AWAY from the real danger, blacks. Admitting that simple truth will set you free. You have to get away.
So, there's pretty much NO crime. I love it. No black people either--well maybe 10 or so, but they are well-aware of how this place works. All my neighbors seem to have cameras mounted outside, too--even the druggies, so no one gets away with anything.
How things should be, I suppose, except for the cameras. Kinda don't like that, but hey, if the government can spy on everything, why not?
So inclined, I could walk around here at any time of night and not worry. I don't, because I can barely see, and we have some ferocious deer around here, among other critters. But other people do with no problem. I've been here since 2019, and I think there's been one murder. Domestic dispute is my understanding.
Oddly, the place is FULL of ex-cons. I guess they all headed for whiteyville after experiencing the joys of diversity. No trouble at all, and everyone knows who they are and what they did, so that keeps them on their toes. No perves, mostly imprisoned just for fighting, drugs, DUIs, and one arsonist whacked-out veteran of the Forever Wars.
That’s good news, but sadly there is still no vaccine effective against gonorrhea nor the Malaysian Goo nor the Miranda Du Mekong Delta Variant.

Those were really quite funny.
Do you notice how nonwhite senior citizens are always referred to as “elders,” implying some sort of special wisdom and painting a picture of younger people visiting them to bow, pay respects, and ask for wisdom or conflict resolution per the ancient ways. This is so even if they are just fixed-incomers who watch TV all day and who don’t even get visits from family members.
Whites are “seniors” at best, grumpy old jerk-asses who need to die or get with the woke program at worst.

The killer came to the neighborhood in a stolen vehicle. Driver or passenger? Earlier that day, he had been cited for speeding and running a stop sign. In the stolen vehicle?

LOL. And I really mean it.
I came across an explanation on the net for why names for black Americans keep changing. Every 10 years they get a new name. Because it takes about 10 years for people to create bad associations for the name. Then they need a change.
New name, same associations. (Think of it: Negro/Afro-American/black (nothing else, lower case b)/African-American/Black with the capital b.)
I sense a parallel with the crime names, but faster. Thug is now black, so use brute. Soon brute will be black, so a new word will be needed.
Personally, I always thought thug was perfect but we’ll need a new one. Bob Grant used to call thugs “scum.”

Mr Scott is 100% correct. We are nought but meat and tasty snacks to these predators.
They still get the infection and spread it and sometimes get sick and die from it. Vaccines themselves carry risks as well. The bottom line is that everyone will get this virus and either recover or die. Even if every person were vaccinated, animals still carry the virus and can mutate it. So a focus treatments rather than vaccines that don’t work is the only way out. This is no longer a pandemic. The sars-cov-2 virus is endemic and here to stay.

Good advice for men and women both. Men have a much bigger rate of being victims of street crime because they are more likely to be out and about alone at night. Black robbers cruise around bar club restaurant areas looking for victims. usually men walking alone to and from their cars parked in the street.
Yes they did. He’s a 5th generation Russian Jew communist terrorist. Parents of Ellis Island great grandfather were Russian Jew revolutionaries back in the 1890s. Courageously bombed train stations and local government offices.
Adoptive Mother bombed S.F. Park Police Station killing one cop blinding another and 50 years later son gets elected county prosecutor.
S.F. Asians are democrats. Voted for him. No sympathy.
Axiom #1 –African Americans are never morally responsible for any criminal behavior.
Give them that one and all else follows.
Chicago news papers now use the word youngsters to describe the savage black packs hunting robbing beating and injuring Whites in the most expensive and upscale parts of the city, Miracle mile, Lakeview Gold Coast .
“She had learned small details about the suspect from her initial conversations with the police: male, 19 years old, African American.”
Fascinating how the objective description of the assailant turns out to be a “small detail” (and therefore irrelevant) when that person is black. It is amazing how journalistic standards have crumbled, even at the once mighty New York Times.
chesa boudin may be subjected to a recall petition. Voters just didn’t understand “restorative justice” when it comes to murder and mayhem. Can’t restore a life or replace your blinded eye. But, it is San Francisco, where a young woman walking with her dad, although they are White, can be shot and killed and the murderer aquitted of all charges. He had claimed he was shooting at some seals, had that been true the obama administration would have come down with both feet. White women, Asian women, not so much and biden is obama II. Factories used to have signage: ‘This plant has worked___days without an accident.” Put these signs up in SF…”This neighborhood has gone___days without an Asian being beaten.” Stay safe. Cross the street. Avoid danger.

Dude, people are intubated because they cannot breath. People who cannot breath cannot speak.
Intubation is pretty nasty, so before that starts the patient is deeply sedated via anesthesia. They don’t talk, either.
So you’re saying that people who can’t breath, who have just been given anesthesia, are asking for a vaccine?
Dude, you’re really late to the party with this particular example of gaslighting. Just because it’s in the papers doesn’t make it true, especially now when the ‘papers’ are all about lying on some topics.
Ironic headline from three decades back by Black! Chicago Tribune columnist.
Desiderius, that seems like pretty motivated reasoning to interpret that chart in that way.
It shows a slightly higher chance of a positive culture for a given viral load. But knowing that the vaccinated tend to have a higher viral load when infected negates the entire argument.
The meaningful part of the graph is the slope of the line. And it shows a slope that is – not identical – but very close between the vaccinated and unvaccinated lines. Close enough that it doesn’t seem like cause for celebration.
You also have to consider that the unvaccinated are more likely to be running around with active viral load and no symptoms. This makes them even more likely to be out in the community shedding virus around the vulnerable.
I’m not an anti-vaxxer but the polarization on this issue has made people unable to to think logically about things. I think the vaccine is nothing short of a miracle, but there are reasonable concerns to be had about the way it is being presented to the public.
Where are you seeing that they have a "higher viral load"? The "vaccinated" graph is always lower than the "unvaccinated" in terms of "probability of culture positivity" Furthermore, to the extent the vaccinated have a shorter and milder disease progression, they're going to be doing a lot less infecting."The meaningful part of the graph is the slope of the line. And it shows a slope that is – not identical – but very close between the vaccinated and unvaccinated lines."The slopes seem substantially different to me, and I fail to see why slope is more meaningful than the fact that "vaxxed" is everywhere shallower and lower than the "unvaxxed". Moreover, the above point about how many days a vaxxed COVID case sheds vs. one who is vaccinated remains:"You also have to consider that the unvaccinated are more likely to be running around with active viral load and no symptoms. This makes them even more likely to be out in the community shedding virus around the vulnerable."I see your point there -- to the extent the unvaxxed are more likely to be exhaling into ventilators or else packed away in morgues not exhaling at all, then the vaxxed are in that sense more dangerous, but back when there were no vaccines, things were far gloomier. Again, the excess deaths graph that the CDC has been throughout COVID serves as a useful benchmark. The post-vaccine behavior still shows a bit of an elevation relative to the last couple of years displayed in the graph, but the overall US death rate -- despite the delta surge -- has been just about normal for several months, so whatever COVID is killing among the unvaxxed is not enough to exceed whatever reduction in deaths the delays in elective surgery or the cancelled vacation trips are causing. That may change once we get into the flu season, but it's hard to argue against the notion that so far at least, we're in a far better place.

San Francisco is only 5% black and the entire Bay Area region perhaps 3%. Yet almost every case cited involved a black attacker. Given that those true and important facts managed to appear in such a high-profile NYT story on anti-Asian racial violence, I don’t think it’s fair to criticize the (Asian) writer too much for also including some extensive covering PC verbiage.
Watson is a white name, isn’t it? Case closed.
Reminds me that when I last visited San Francisco some years ago, I was mock charged by a chubby black student in his 20s. I suppose I must have looked at him a bit too long as we passed each other in the street? Well, it never got very serious but still seemed a bit odd.

Thank you for those excerpted 3 paragraphs, Mr. Unz. I like your expression “extensive covering PC verbiage”, but man is this extensive! I am trying to see where your excerpts fit in with all the BS that Mr. Sailer shows us. I’ll tell you that I will almost NEVER click on the NY Times. I did this time to try to reconcile what you wrote here with the post. Sorry, they want me to make an account so F that. (I believe you, of course.)
To me, Steve’s point is that the writer does every thing he* can to make this into an article about racism, which we all know means “White people BAD”, no matter what the facts are, even when a few are given. I know, you, me, Steve, and every commenter but Corvinus, if we had read the whole article, would dig out those facts and make the conclusion that “yes, no duh, black people commit most of the violence, and that goes against all races, Orientals not excluded”.
Do you think the average NY Times reader would come to the same conclusion? I bet 95% of them, even of the ones that read the entire article, will get out of this: “White people bad. Poor Oriental people. More money for programs. More re-education.”
Yeah, good on the guy for sticking in some facts, but he sure went hard-out stupid with all the rest. I mean, the one paragraph up there that starts with: “Jeung set up search alerts for “Asian American” and “discrimination.” has just SO much bullshit, one lie after another. I don’t know where to start with that. So much stupidity and so little time!
PS: Note that the writer never comes up with any proposed solution with the words “black people” in it, not even a euphemism.

How far can an old man spit? The details matter, or it’s just simple bullshit. Come to think of it, if anyone is going to be good at spitting, the chances are he (or she, of course!) is Oriental, OK, Chinese.

That’s correct. In the UK there was a brand of aftershave called “Brut”, and the celebrity advertising it was a popular boxer, Henry Cooper.
More and more bad things are happening in the U.S. Some are unable to find any reasons why. Others blame straight white males.
Fact: the fewer white straight males as a proportion of the population, the more bad things happen. This implies that as white straight males are reduced in number, the magic of each remaining one increases such that their aggregate evil magic is even higher.
The baddest time will be when few of them are left. But when every last one is gone, everything will be good again.

Same here. Gotta put up with howling drunks and methheads staggering around at three a.m., serious firework wars on the 4th of July (competitions, more like), but nobody gets attacked unless they deserve it (other than general Redneck mayhem such as bar fights, etc.), like for spitting on someone or getting caught stealing a bicycle. Then they get the shit stomped out of them, and mostly leave town because the gossip grapevine around here is FEARSOME.
So, there’s pretty much NO crime. I love it. No black people either–well maybe 10 or so, but they are well-aware of how this place works. All my neighbors seem to have cameras mounted outside, too–even the druggies, so no one gets away with anything.
How things should be, I suppose, except for the cameras. Kinda don’t like that, but hey, if the government can spy on everything, why not?
So inclined, I could walk around here at any time of night and not worry. I don’t, because I can barely see, and we have some ferocious deer around here, among other critters. But other people do with no problem. I’ve been here since 2019, and I think there’s been one murder. Domestic dispute is my understanding.
Oddly, the place is FULL of ex-cons. I guess they all headed for whiteyville after experiencing the joys of diversity.

I see. So if he was simply visiting his kin, as was explained to me by my Thai wife, its simply too fucking bad that he was murdered. I really don’t care which nationality or ethnicity of the gentleman who was murdered but the bastard responsible deserves a bullet to the head. Such evil stupidity doesn’t warrant forgiveness.

“You liars were claiming two weeks a year and a half ago. “
Was I really? A year and a half you say? Was this about the same time as “you” were claiming it was just the flu or praising the so-called experts assuring us that 10K was all this thing would ever kill so that whatever it was that we were supposed to be doing to flatten the curve was something you weren’t going to bother with? Now that’s what I call lying, given what’s happened in the year and half since, but strangely enough, that seems to have slipped your mind.

And the ultimate point of my comment was that as far as the killing was concerned, COVID seems to be pretty well spent, delta variants notwithstanding. I don’t know whether it’s over for good, but to the extent that even good news like that — and note we were able to reach that point without the “supply chain” ever collapsing or whatever else it was you were screaming about all the while you were accusing others of fearmongering — was not enough to forestall yet another one of your incessant conniptions, don’t complain to others about their demands never being enough. You and your crybaby friends need to look in the mirror for that, though you’ll probably want to wipe away your salty little tears first.

A huge segment of the population of Thailand is of recent Chinese ancestry, and genetic investigations have revealed that a large percentage of supposedly native Thai people actually possess ancient Indian ancestry. Besides this mixed background of the majority “Thai” population, Thailand also has a great number of ethnolinguistic minorities, some closely related with the Thais (e.g. Lao and Lanna people) and others not so closely related in an ethnolinguistic sense (e.g. Mon, Khmer, Lawa, Mal, Bru, Karen, Hmong).

There was a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine back in the 1980's comparing murder rates in Seattle vs. Vancouver. The lead, one Arthur Kellerman, concluded that Vancouver's lower murder rate was mainly due to Canadian gun laws vs. US / Washington gun laws. In that report it was obvious that the largest minority in Vancouver was Chinese and other East Asians, while the largest minority in Seattle was African-Americans. This paper glided right past this report, even though from the data presented the white murder rate in both cities was essentially the same. I'm pretty sure that Noticing the last fact was even then a crimethink.
Personally, I recall walking back to a hotel late at night in Zurich one time. A Swiss city where every guy over 18 had a fully automatic weapon in his closet.

“how is a “vaccine” that has killed thousands and sickened countless others, while failing to prevent the disease ‘miraculous’?”
It didn’t fail to prevent deaths and ICU visits — at least, not if one goes through the trouble and (zero) expense of actually taking it. Again, one only needs to look at the CDC excess death toll graph I linked to earlier to see some clear evidence of that. Even if all those “thousands” that the vaccine allegedly killed were true (which it isn’t, just like the allegations of “crisis actors” pretending to be nurses and doctors in those completely empty hospitals weren’t true), the number of COVID deaths the vaccine is preventing is evidently far greater. I mean, seat belts kill thousands, too — sometimes they trap you, sometimes they strangle you, or whatever. That doesn’t mean the odds of you surviving the next trip are better, but only if you make the effort to strap one on. The ones still doing the dying and ventilator huffing for the most part didn’t bother with actually taking the vaccine, so stop blaming them on the vaccine.
To be fair, I wouldn’t claim this was all that miraculous either. I’d say it’s actually a lot like the regular flu vaccine, which is pretty lame some years too, and each year they have to formulate a new batch to keep track of the latest variants. But even on those years when the regular flu vaccine is weak, it will still (just like the COVID vaccine) “reduce severity of illness in people who get vaccinated but still get sick.” So at least in that very limited sense, COVID kinda IS like the flu, at least a little. I.e. the just-a-flu bros finally got one right, kinda, and it only took them a year and a half. So let’s all give a slow handclap to the just-a-flu bros — there’s something for everyone to be pleased about at this point, if they’d only stop shaking their little fists in the air long enough to see it.
Prevent deaths is a pretty strong claim. You are asserting that not one person who received any of the Pfizer drug has died of COVID-19? There are people in Israel who disagree.
Now, isn't it more of a "treatment", than a "vaccine"? Given that treatments exist which also reduce the probability of serious illness and death, such as Remdesivir and Ivermectin, and given the known decline in efficacy of the Pfizer drug, does it make sense to continue to employ a leaky vaccine? A leaky vaccine that continues to cause bad side effects, such as death? For example, it appears that more people under 30 have died from the vaccines than from SARS-2, is that acceptable to you?
By the way, how does "gain of function" work?
To be fair, I wouldn’t claim this was all that miraculous either.
What led you to this remarkable change of opinion? Was it Pfizer admitting that efficacy drops every month? Or something else?

@92 InnerCynic: Nowhere did I suggest the sub-Saharan killer “warranted” forgiveness – I’m the last to offer such to an alien and animalistic sub-species. I’m simply noting that all these Asians being preyed upon by blacks wouldn’t be subject to such predatory behavior if they had remained in their own countries. Unlike Sailer’s right-liberal commentariat, I am not traumatized by media hectoring that Whites are somehow responsible for Asian immigrants’ health, safety, and self esteem. Regardless of individual character or perceived virtue, I want no non-White colonizers and invaders. Whereas you, having married one, obviously have different priorities.
@97 ueljang: I have visited Thailand (and enjoyed it) and a friend’s wife is Thai. But unlike most here, I can separate personal or individual relationships from what is best for my race and nation. And Asian immigration is a net negative for Whites. As I have no divided loyalties and believe that preferring one’s own is natural, I refuse to apologize for such belief, particularly to those who have chosen to miscegenate and, to justify their own personal choices, conflate individuals with national policy to sooth their own consciences.

Murder is murder regardless of color or nation of origin. I respect your opinion with regards to what you see going on within this nation because I’m not blind. There is something extremely odd going on and has been so seemingly under the radar for quite some time. As far as the women thing its been curious. My own German mother told me as a teen not to consider marrying a German girl because she said they were “selfish” and I’d do better to look East and find someone more traditional. Now that came as quite a surprise coming from her mouth before I’d ever even met anyone. Mom? What would make you say that? This coming from a woman who experienced allied bombing in Germany. Sadly cancer took her before I could plumb the depths of her reasoning.
