@crimperman @abolisyonista And I can offer a small but concrete, significant illustration of the difference: in the States, all during COVID, they had Trump idiotically ranting “Chyna virus, Chyna virus, Chyna virus”; here we had a murderously incompetent Tory government that did not, however, ever stoop to racializing the pandemic. In the States that hostility produced a wave of physical assaults on Asian people, women especially, where that has not been an issue here.
