We Shall Overcome .....

 Got caught up in reading this post. Even more fear. I wonder if this is almost strictly a phenomenon
of urban existence. Is this going on in the suburbs?

  Marin Independent Journal Story on Asian American Fear and Hate..

  To which I wrote a response under the name Wheeler in the comment section... 

Fanning the flames of hate?. We have a homeless crisis and a lot of the people
wandering the streets are mentally ill and angry. Then there is what seems to be
young ghetto thugs who feel they have someone to pick on. The constant stories
reinforcing fear is a barrage that may be fueling the ignorant and ill. Then you have the
young reporter who ties it all in with "then-president Donald Trump began using racist rhetoric
to describe the coronavirus." which seems to be the narrative... Is this Journalism or is this
everybody knows so I will repeat it. Calling Covid 19 The Chinese Virus, may have been rude,
unpolitic etc, as the President was. 'racist rhetoric' ?
The right Kind of Hate... is that what we must subscribe to in these
modern times? Directed to all you people who disagree with the Narrative of this current trend...
what once might have been 'Liberal' now its 'we mean business' ... Our side of the story or forget it.
