¡ª¡ªAsians do not to allow themselves to be pushed around
by ¡°The Yan Limeng¡±

Recently, there havebeen frequent attacks againstAsians, especially vulnerableAsians in the United States.On March 17th, avideo of 76-year-old AsianwomanXie Xiaozhen beingpunched in the eye by awhite man caused alot of media and public attention. Infact, in Januarythis year, a91-year-old man in Oakland's Chinatownwas pushed to the ground and accused of contractingCOVID-19; MSN News reported on March 15 that Nancy Tang, an 83-year-old Asianwoman, was spat on, punched and called a"Chinese virus"by awhite middle-aged manin Plains; and NBC News reportedthat some people in the U.S. had launched an online challenge ¡°slap Asians¡± to incite random attacksby teenagers on Public Transportationin San Francisco.It is specifically targeted at Asian seniors and women. On the 19th, a58-year-oldAsian woman was harassed by several youngpeople on abus. With the spread of the COVID-19,more and more such incidentsfollow. The nongovernmentalorganization ¡°Stop AAPI Hate¡± received 2,800 reports in 2020, of which about240 involved physical assault. Since last year, when AAPI Emergency ResponseNetwork began tracking hate incidents directly linked to the COVID-19 disease,more than 3,000 reports have been received. Asian-Americans being spat, beaten, cut and even thrown chemicals.

"Asian=virus"is not an innate belief, it is aman-made misunderstandingand asource of discrimination and violence against the Asian community.

In an interview with The New York Times, White House press secretary JenPsaki said the previous administration'saccusation that the new virus was "Wuhanvirus"had led to inaccurateand unfair perceptionsof the Asian-Americancommunity had increasedthe threat to Asian-Americans.Dr Ben Embarek, head of the WHO Groupon COVID-19 Traceability, stated on behalf of WHO that the origin of COVID-19has not been identified. The "Wuhan Virus" stigma is just apolitician Bannon's attempt to get votes and distract attention from the Trumpadministration's failure to control the epidemic.

As thenumber of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the United States continued to riselast year, Bannon was looking for excuses to blame for the failure to controlthe epidemic. and Guo Wengui, Bannon'slongtime friend and illegal tycoon,is also frustrated that he can¡¯t find away to concoct Chinesecrimes and gain asylum from far-right groupsin the United States from deportation. As aresult, years of close alliancesled the two men to work together.They conduct Yan Limeng, a femalescholar at the University of Hong Kong to accept a YouTube interview withLuther to launch a conspiracy theory that the origin of the COVID-19 is a"chemical and biological weapon of the Communist Party of China."However, YanLiMeng's research experienceof COVID-19has been rejected by her mentor Mr. Keiji Fukuda, Dean of the Hong Kong UniversitySchool of Public Health, and declared thatYan's comments wererumors. YanLi meng, Guo Wengui, and Bannon's conspiracy theoriesabout the COVID-19werealso exposed by the New York Times. But the rumor that "the epidemic came from Asia"spreadwidely in American like avirus, causing misunderstandingsofthe Asian-American community in white Americansociety. Many Asians heard that tauntduring that time:

"It was Asians who caused the COVID-19."

"The outbreak of COVID-19is Asian¡¯sfault."

"Asians should go back to their place."...

The idea of "Asian=virus"has been misguided intoall segments of American society,and violence againstAsian-American groups, especiallythe elderly and women, has become frequent.The United Statesis afree, equal, fraternity society.Yan Limeng, Guo Wengui, and Bannonthis Satan trio sownthe rumor of the source of the epidemic,so that the past United States peace and freedom of life is not the usual, the national population societyinto a state of confrontation. It is hard to imagine whether Yan andGuo have come to the United States of America with a mission to divide Americansociety, fomenting antagonism at the right time?



The Asian community is no longer silent!Joined thegroup to seek warmth, actively save itself and fight for rights

In fact, as early as two years ago, awell-knownpastor, lawyer and scholar Mr. Zhang XunexposedGuo Wengui's falsenature in his personal Twitter,YouTube, and reminded netizensdo not trust Guo Wengui's tricksrepeatedly. But many netizens ignoredMr. Zhang's good intentions. Recently,the well-meaningAsian communityhas ceased to be silent on hatred, violence, epidemicrumors. There are enthusiastic netizens to launch acrowdfundingcampaign for Xie Xiaozhen grannymedical expenses. Thereare well-known Chinese-Americanlawyers launched the "National ChineseFederation for Rights Protection"for allChinese-American in the United States who suffering fromracial discrimination and hate attacks litigation.Marches with the theme 'Stop Asian Hate' were held across the United States, withthe banner"ASIAN IS NOT VIRUS, IS",to defend the reputationof the Asian community as not avirus, prominent politician.New York City mayor, Chinese-Americancandidate Yang An¡¯ze took the initiative toattend the "StopAsian Hate" rally, streetspeeches called for an end to hatred ofAsian Americans.The kind-hearted and cash-strapped grannyXie Xiaozhen gave back to the Asian community the millions of dollars shereceived from online crowdfunding, hopes that the Asian community would uniteto resist the stigma of Asian is a virus, fight against racism, and fight forthe equal rights of the Asian community in the American society.
