CORRECTION: It is NOT "internalized" Sinomisia, if you are not Chinese. Only Chinese people have internalized Sinomisia. If you are not Chinese, you have anti-Chinese racism, anti-Asian racism, & Sinomisia. My intention in using the word "internalized" was to denote that we ALL learn racism and white supremacy (and other oppressions) in very insidious and oftentimes subconscious ways.

Maybe we can call it "indoctrinated" Sinomisia, instead.

note: i am not necessarily for or against any decisions that the Chinese government makes. i don't know everything about anything. that does not mean you can be anti-Chinese racist or Sinomisic!

* by the way, Sinomisia is the non-sanist word for "Sinophobia".

the suffix "-phobia" is inaccurate, minimizing, and sanist.

compare with: misogyny.

the roots are Greek: mīso-, miso-, "misein"
which all mean "to hate" in Greek.

that's why i use the words:

— Sinomisia or anti-Chinese sentiment, instead of "Sinophobia".
— transmisia or anti-transness, instead of "transphobia".
— queermisia or anti-queerness, instead of "homophobia"/"queerphobia".

... etc. ...

PLEASE DO NOT LET WESTERN MEDIA'S COVERAGE OF CHINA FEED YOUR:

— anti-China sentiment/Sinomisia

— OR anti-Chinese racism

— OR anti-Asian racism

(which are all different things, btw.)

in countries of the global minority,

WE ALL HAVE ANTI-CHINESE RACISM.

INCLUDING ME.

AND I AM CHINESE, & I WAS BORN IN CHINA, & I HAVE LIVED IN CHINA!

i LEARNED my subconscious anti-Chinese racism and Sinomisia from:

— living in usameriKKKa
— being bullied every. single. day. for being Chinese when i was a young child
— being s*x**lly harassed every. single. day. for being read as Chinese/Asian as an adult

— western media,
which actively creates, & violently propagates,
anti-Chinese racist & anti-Asian racist stereotypes, and actively propagates & promotes anti-Chinese racism & anti-Asian racism.

every. single. day.

... and i also LEARNED my internalized anti-Chinese racism and Sinomisia,
from just the CONSTANT, DAILY TRAUMA
i experience
living in the west
as a non-white person at all.

the goal of ALL western media* is to continue to uphold & bolster

violent
white supremacy,
western imperialism & settler-colonialism,
& capitalism.

and they succeed at it.

especially if we continue to participate

in upholding white supremacy,
western imperialism & settler-colonialism,
& capitalism,

in what we ourselves do, say, AND think —

whether we do so unconsciously, or not.

anti-China sentiment /Sinomisia

& anti-Chinese racism

is CAPITALIST

& IMMORAL.

please decouple the FACTS about what the Chinese government is doing,

from your own
ANTI-CHINESE RACISM
& SINOMISIA.

Always be learning
& unlearning every day!

thank you, Comrade 🫡
