We should make use of what is beneficial to us, while discarding the useless.
That's the contradiction of the West. They say they want to include everyone yet in practice they exclude mostly everyone else. In reality they want as much support as possible but mostly everyone else won't see a return. It's an elitist mentality of Western culture that liberals themselves can't escape. In San Francisco they saw it with District Attorney recall, the school board recall, and every other instant where the Democratic liberal establishment disregarded Asian voter concerns on thing that affected Asians.
When Republicans say they aren't racist and accept minorities into the party, that's only if minorities don't bring in their issues that concern them and instead only care about the general Republican agenda which are only white Republicans concerns that they care about. Recently someone objected in this forum to my warning for Asians not to so easily jump in and join the anti-woke crowd in the US. Yeah they want support but guess what? They not going to support you as much as they expect you for them. The US Congress supposedly has a bill to rebuke China over LGBQT rights. It'll probably pass if it hasn't already because it will be supported by the anti-woke crowd in Congress. Do you think it's because Republicans care about their rights in China. No. They want China destroyed by the very thing they think is destroying the US. It's very American that they want support from people they aren't willing to support themselves. That includes the Republican perspective how they want support from LBGQT in their anti-China legislation.
That's what's wrong with the US. They say they care about things when they really don't. That's why Roe v. Wade was overturned. People like Senator Susan Collins was upset that the now supreme court justice Brett Kavanaugh told her he wouldn't vote to overturn Roe v. Wade but then he did. The romanticism of Americans that you can trust them with their word when it's as simple as just lying that makes them so naïve about reality. Just like believing Americans want to include everyone when their culture works to exclude as many as they can because then what the have isn't so special if everyone has it.
I would endorse strong leanings towards any side in the overseas Asian community, as long as deep down everyone is aware that the only people that will have your back are your fellow Asians, and the only thing that will improve the lives of Asians both abroad and in our native countries is a strong, unified Asia.
And we all know the only country that can create a strong unified Asia.
