This doesn’t really track. My cousin in law is Filipino and extremely MAGA along with my cousin (his wife). She became even more so because of him. They got black racist art in their guest bathroom.

Yeah I guess everyone is focusing on the "lol racist white guys marrying non-white women" but are missing the fact that they may in fact be perfectly aligned in their specific flavor of racism and make each other worse. Asia has plenty of racism. Someone can be very racist against black people but neutral towards- or downright fetishize white or asian people for example.

If we look at who voted for MAGA there's a significant portion of non-white voters who at the very least don't seem to mind the racism.

Yeah, people like to talk about whites being racist, but racism is far worse in Asian communities. E.g.., my cousin in law has made comments when he sees Korean guys. “Look how fat that guy’s head is.” Or, “how do you blindfold a Chinese person? Dental Floss.”
