The question: Why the increase in violence against Asians?
The lazy mind answer: Someone called a virus the Wuhan flu..............

Trump has unleashed the ugliness that has always been part of this country but had been shamed into the darkness. Now the hate has gone mainstream into the open and is being espoused by his followers, hate on minorities, hate on women,
it's not going to end unless we all reject it.

Michigan GOP leader calls top Democrats ‘witches,’ jokes about assassination of Republicans

The head of the Michigan GOP came under fire Friday for calling three female Democratic leaders “witches” to be burned “at the stake” and for mentioning “assassination” as an option for how to oust two Republican congressmen who voted to impeach former president Donald Trump.
State GOP Chairman Ron Weiser’s rhetoric, which was captured on video this week, was rebuked by Michigan Democrats as “sexist” and “dangerous” and led members of the University of Michigan Board of Regents to call for his resignation from the governing board. Included in Weiser’s “three witches” comment was Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D), the target of a foiled kidnapping plot last year amid virulent criticism from her political opponents.

Openly reject leaders that incite violence against others, or we lose everything we once thought we stood for.
