Just a reminder that no matter how much you sell yourself out to try to fit in, if you are ethnically Chinese (or Russian, or whichever ethnic group the US currently is scapegoating) you will always be the Other and the first to be targeted. Doesn't matter if you get the passport, become a soldier or a cop, you will never be one of them.

Since they are going to get blamed for it and railroaded whether they did it or not, I hope they at least actually did get some information to China. I can't imagine they had all that much China didn't already know about though.

The boots they so fanatically lick will likely one day be the same boot that kicks their lifeless bodies into a ditch

Hey, if you’re extremely lucky you may become a token for a bit like Candace Owens.

Or a lifetime of Uncle Tom like Sowell.

Have you ever watched "Midnight Mass" on Netflix? There's a Muslim sheriff in the small US town, and he talks about the same thing.
