Comment on Why do I almost never see people flying drones?

I flew it for like a few months then I keep crashing it, or like have it gone too far and never been able to retrieve it… etc…
(Not a fpv, but I still fly around for fun, not really doing much photography lol)
And I kinda ran out of funds for this hobby…
I have a DJI Mini… something (3 or 4 idk) that’s still fuctional I think… but nah, don’t feel like it…
the novelty died…
I also never seen a drone irl before I got one… lol…
I sometimes didnt feel like going to the park and so I flew it in my front yard, then the kids across the street got so annoyed with me and accused me of “spying on them”… and I’m no sure if they meant it as in the “you’re a creep” type of way, or like the… um…
“You’re a Chinese working for the CCP spying on our country” type of way… 🤦♂️
This is deep blue Philly…
Now we have orange fuckface in office
DJI banned(? only applies to new ones I think? still…)
Trade war and politics stufff…
Lile I always imagined people are just very sinophobic for some reason after the “new sheriff in town”
Like I imagine white guy is just in a “red scare” mode in their brain…
Or maybe am I just paranoid and imagining things?
Paired with my depression…
Meh…
I’ll just do other stuff lile writing… which I’ve still been procrastinating for like months… (I like to imagine myself being a writer but the not actually concenstrate enough to do it lmao)

you’re not that far off. there’s this white man paranoia thing that oozes from fox and all the rest. it’s part of their white christian nationalism trap.
theyve been brainwashed but let’s face it, they’re adults and it’s partially voluntary for them. I mean… you have to want to be a racist shit head asshole. and this country bumpkin bullshit ass country with all these dumb ass hillbilly Christians just crave to be victims that they can then shoot and feel good about.
they don’t have red scare, it’s anything that’s not white, scare.
/I’m white so maybe I’m lying too I can’t tell anymore.

Tbf I also had black kids in school used the term “ching chong” against me…
Idk why is there just so much casual racism that’s acceptable against Asians, I mean like… its almost universally ragarded as unacceptable to be racist against black people, but the same standard isn’t applied to racism against Asians… cuz society is like “Model Minority” and "White Adjacent"¹ so Asians get to be made a joke of
Idk why… I could get bullied IN FRONT OF OTHER ASIAN KIDS and they will not stand up for me… 😭
Where solidarity?
(¹Very “white adjacent” iNdEeD… so much so that ahem Covid Anti-Asian hatecrimes… ahem)
