Spy in my econ class

[Anonymous]

At Purdue, there were stories of Chinese students ratting out dissident views of other Chinese students to political types back home; causing government pressure on the families of the insufficiently loyal students.

Not sure if this was the same situation, but here is an article with that dynamic: https://www.purdueexponent.org/campus/article_a751c68a-5f68-11ec-80ee-7fa14a244c0a.html

Their reach is terrifying. But, I've found that Chinese nationals are always scared of big brother and tend to not disclose anything to foreigners, which makes this so sad. I can absolutely see wanting to be honest with other Chinese students in a foreign university setting.

Spies infiltrate high society. Lots of Chinese students at Sandy Spring Friends School. Some could be future spies. Lots of Russia s come to the US to have babies to make them US citizens. No one stops this.

So could the American kids at Sandy Springs or kids of any other ethnic background. I find your post to be really ignorant and offensive.

Asian Americans experience enough "othering." They really do not need you to doubt the allegiance of your young children's classmates for God's sake.

Okay. So Russian kids then. It’s a fact that Russians and Chinese people come to the US to have babies and get citizenship. Why do YOU think they do this?

The Russians sent a very young man to the US to be a spy. Are you saying China would never do this and would wait until the person is 18?

He went from a library card and birth certificate on up and almost got his US passport.

Russia usually kills their spies if they defect but this one told Russia he had AIDS back in the 90s and they assumed he died, and they were scared of getting AIDS. The US let him stay because he gave them info.

What is the book?

Can be found on his website. He kept the name taken from the grave of a dead boy in Adelphi, MD. Russian spies search cemeteries to find the names of dead children to use for spies—at least, they once did.

They have anchor babies to have opportunities for a better life and to possibly have a way out of their home countries if push came to shove. Not to breed future spies, you xenophobic idiot.

- signed, former immigration officer who hates the anchor baby phenomenon, but is at least based in reality

OPTION 1: Non-citizen parent has child in United States so the child can have a better life as an American citizen.

OPTION 2: Non-citizen parent has child in United States as part of a long-game plot to have the child spy on the U.S. in favor of the home country.

It takes a special mind to seize on Option 2 as the more likely.
