Remember those US soldiers that foiled a terrorist plot on a French train that Clint Eastwood made a movie about? Something like a year later after suffering severe injuries fighting the terrorist and holding him down, the main guy was in his hometown of Sacramento, CA where he was at a bar and he saw a Vietnamese man abusing his girlfriend. He chose to intervene and the abuser and his friends along with the girlfriend that he was abusing attacked him and he ended up in the hospital again with injuries he suffered. Because this guy was famous, the incident went international. The Vietnamese community in Sacramento then tried to claim the assailants were Chinese not Vietnamese. Even though some of them were arrested and their identities are "known" and are of public record, Vietnamese know they can try to blame it on Chinese because plenty of Americans don't know the difference and don't care and are racist and will use any excuse so they can hate. And the Vietnamese exploited this. And I hear a lot of Asian ethnicities do this to cover-up and by default lie and blame the Chinese for their people's actions.

Not that it really matters. Any Chinese family offshoots that stay in the West for more than a couple of generations turn into white washed hanjian anyways. The ones that stay in China will remain safe. The ones that have disowned their heritage or who have been disowned will be subject to hate crimes and racially motivated violence.

Out of curiosity, did they have anything to say regarding the Soviet liberators of the Northeast?

Also quite negative.

On an individual level, robberies and rapes by Soviet soldiers were common place despite severe punishment. My grandfather had a story of a woman that was sexually assaulted by a Soviet soldier. She was asked to identify her attacker from a lineup of Soviet soldiers, and the soldier she identified was immediately executed even though she wasn't even sure she identified the right person.

On a national policy level, the Soviets had a policy of taking industrial and infrastructure equipment and other valuable materials and shipping them back home. When the ROC/KMT government demanded a stop to this, the Soviets claimed these were due to looting by local Chinese residents and engineered incidents to demonstrate such "looting". One family friend/co-worker was a survivor of one such incident. People in her area were told that food and supplies were going to be distributed for free at a warehouse. After a large number of people gathered at the warehouse, the Soviets opened fire with machine guns. Both of her parents were killed. She (a child at the time) survived under the bodies of the adults around her but the trauma caused her to have recurring psychotic episodes throughout her life.

The Soviets and the other Allies stole equipment from the German and Japanese posessions as war reparations or loot. This is well known.

Yes,Russians stripped Manchuria to the bare walls after 1945 even though it really belonged to the Chinese-no hard power,no choices.-lesson learned

This is some sound logic.

Of course, the real enemy is Israel and the genocide they are committing.

The 3% "growth" in second quarter is mainly due to stockpile of commodities and goods by producers and sellers in response to the tariffs. The second half of 2025 will be worse than the first half probably.

Is Trump's math really so bad?

I recommend reading Carter J. Eckert, Park Chung Hee and Modern Korea: The Roots of Militarism 1866-1945 (Harvard University Press, 2016), pages 5, 73-86

The Korean collaborationist officers in the Japanese forces was neither a small group nor isolated from mainstream Korean society. The Korean officers in the Japanese forces were not simply mercenary quislings as they had to be nominated. Colonial Korean schools dutifully carried out their assignment to nominate large numbers of their best and brightest students to become officer cadets. Commissioned officers were highly respected in 1930s Korean society, who treated them with pride as heroes within the local community. Of the 2nd batch of top students in the Manchurian Military Academy who were considered good enough to join the Japanese Military Academy in Tokyo, half were Koreans (including future President Park Chung Hee). Indeed, the influence of pro-Japanese elements grew even larger after WW2. ROK Military Academy superintendent and later Minister of Defence Chong Naehyok was also a graduate of the JMA, and he made sure that South Koreans were trained according to the same mould. According to interviews decades after the war, the Japanese officers who had graduated from the Academy with Park Chung Hee felt that the IJA spirit was still preserved in the ROK army.

That is a sad irony because when the Imperial Korean Military (Military of the Korean Empire) was being disbanded one of the Generals literally killed himself because Korea is being annexed into Japan and his soldiers ended storming the armories to take their weapons and fought the Japanese army (battle of Namedaemun) and those soldiers ended leading the war for independence.

Joke’s on them. American racists can’t tell the difference between Sikhs and Muslims and good luck with them being able to tell Vietnamese apart from Chinese. Chances are they’ll just get brutally beaten together.

Not even I can tell Vietnamese, Chinese, and Koreans apart and I am ethnically Chinese so…

I've heard very similar stories from older relatives that grew up in the Northeast. Despite being officially communist, the USSR has never been a friend to the PRC. Soviet/Russian imperialism was just as brutal and harsh as Western or Japanese imperialism.
