blacks have been attacking asians since before COVID

there is no evidence it increased due to COVID

asians are less likely to be the victim of assault than any other race in the US, with the most likely attacker being another asian, and second most likely being black. the liberals desperately wanted to push a "white people attacking asians over COVID" narrative, just like they tried to push after 9/11.

"stop asian hate" was a "the summer of the shark" example of how if you focus enough attention on a rare event, you can make people think it is far more common than it really is.
