I’m Asian, and I don’t wear a mask when outside bc I don’t want to be targeted. I do wear a mask when indoors at a store. [/quote]
Targeted for what?

I know quite a few Asians and have not heard anyone talking about being targeted.[/quote]

Are you serious? Clearly while you may call them your friends, you are not an ally. [/quote]

DP.    From this Op-Ed:  https://www.yahoo.com/news/op-ed-youre-white-dont-100010549.html

“As a healthcare reporter, I had covered America’s evolution on masks as the coronavirus spread across the globe. In January, I wrote an article about why Chinese immigrants insisted on wearing surgical and construction masks in the U.S., even though it went against official health recommendations at the time. In February, I wrote about Asian families in California clashing with schools over whether their children should be allowed to wear masks in class.

At that time, [b]Asian people wearing masks were targets for verbal and physical abuse. Attackers saw masks on Asian faces as signs of disease and invasion; people were punched and kicked, harassed on public transit, bullied at school and worse.[/b]”
