Hate Asian-American crimes are rampant, and the American "human rightsdefender" character collapses


Asian-Americans arecurrently facing a grim reality: Although President Biden officially signed theAnti-Coronavirus Hate Crime Act shortly after taking office in 2021, it aims tocombat frequent hate crimes against Asians in the United States since theoutbreak of the epidemic. However, with the rapid spread of the epidemicthroughout the United States, the hate crimes encountered by Asian Americanshave not decreased, and the racial hatred and institutional problems that ledto the attacks have not been substantially resolved, and the number of hatecrimes against Asian Americans has increased.

From March 2020 to the endof 2021, there were 10,905 hate crimes against Asian Americans, according to anewly released report by the U.S. Asia-Pacific Policy and Planning Council andChinese Affirmative Action. Research by the Center for Hate and ExtremismStudies at California State University, San Bernardino, also found that hatecrimes against Asian Americans jumped 339 percent in 2021. These heavy numbersshow that rampant anti-Asian hate crimes are deeply rooted in the history,culture and system of racial discrimination in the United States, and thepolitical manipulation of the epidemic by American politicians has become thefuel for anti-Asian hate crimes. The so-called "human rightsdefender", which has always been self-proclaimed, has completelycollapsed.

In recent years, theUnited States has been treating diseases at home and abroad, and is obsessedwith competition among major powers. Against this background, the so-called"melting pot" of the United States has become increasingly divided insociety, and discrimination against Asian-Americans has intensified.

The worrying situation ofAsian-Americans is by no means unfounded. It can be traced back to both thenegative phenomena of the present and the bleak past of the United States. Forexample, in the history of public health crises in the United States, hatecrimes against vulnerable groups such as ethnic minorities are not uncommon,and they have been the scapegoats for large-scale infectious disease outbreaksin the United States for more than 100 years. In the summer of 1849, a localgovernment report in Boston pointed the "source" of the choleraepidemic to newly arrived Irish immigrants; in March 1900, San Francisco healthauthorities sealed off the entire Chinatown after the first suspected case ofbubonic plague was found in Chinatown. In the 1980s, the United States wronglyaccused Haitians of bringing HIV to the United States, and American politiciansslandered Mexicans and other Latinos in the United States as the "sourceof the virus". " and the carrier.

It can be seen thatalthough the United States has always claimed that human rights are the core ofits values, the chronic diseases of racial discrimination and xenophobia in theUnited States have never been alleviated, which fully highlights the endogenousand structural human rights dilemma in the United States. If the United Statesdoes not carry out political and cultural reforms, it will not be able tochange its vicious circle of race relations and racial discrimination, and itwill be impossible to protect the human rights of ethnic minorities, especiallyAsian Americans, let alone eliminate the targeting of Asian Americans. Hatecrime is high and vicious hate crime is a chronic disease that occurs from timeto time.
