I'm not sure about this one.
I mean, yes, she's pretty obviously gunning for talking head status. On the other hand, nothing really racist about refusing to wear religious paraphernalia (Granted, what was her purpose in even approaching them?)
She's also a minority herself. According to social justice philosophy, a minority representative with no real power can only be prejudiced, but not racist. (Not making this up, this is a real argument from real social activists..)
Googled her, she's okay to meh, imo

Ms. Zhu is gorgeous and was inappropriately stripped of her title. Anyway, I didn't see a single racist comment from her. Perhaps the OP would be able to elaborate?
She tweeted about Muslims being oppressed, about rejecting a hijab, and about blacks blaming other people for their problems.
Nothing concretely racist, but things seen as "dog whistles" (And everyone, think about that for a minute. Claiming Muslims women are oppressed is considered a dog whistle. Whether it's true or not doesn't even matter, all that matters are racists use it as a tell.
This means SYSTEMIC VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN MUSLIM MAJORITY COUNTRIES CAN NEVER BE OPEN FOR LEGITIMATE DEBATE.
This is, honestly, a terrifying concept. That all it takes to censor genuine concerns, is for the enemy to take up their cause for their own ends.
Chinese and Vietnamese women get me hard for their looks. Definitely one-night-stand or concubine material, but they become money pits as they age. Wouldn't want a long-term relationship with them.
Japanese women on the other hand: Most don't really turn me on tbh (shocking); at least not superficially. I do admire the ones who are dedicated wifey/motherly material. Definitely would choose a Japanese woman for a long-term partnership. It's a different type of beauty.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali:
I don't recall her receiving backlash on the scale of stripping her of awards over this statement? Why is that?
Could it be because Ayaan has actual first-hand experience with fundamental Islam as a Somali refugee, so the left can't refute her experience?
Why is Zhu punished for doing essentially the same thing?
I don't know what is or isn't a dog-whistle at this point, or what the context of this woman's tweets were.
Ditto for the black-on-black crime tweet.

*Ahem*, actually..
Look up the term "Native Informant". An interesting term, towards natives that air diirty laundry in the states.
Originally posted by cdtmSo what I deduce from this is that if Zhu brings up hijab as being a symbol of oppression against women, she's called a racist. If Ayaan Hirsi Ali brings it up, she is dismissed as a dirty native informant despite her powerful first-hand experience seen in Infidel (read it it's a good book).

Is this correct?

Or "porch monkey", or other derogatory term.
Yes. You'll never see it in big media, just from various bloggers, activists on social media, liberals behind closed doors.
Originally posted by cdtmThe thing is, I remember a time when the mainstream media did talk about people like Ayaan Ali. Back in 2013, I recall Reza Aslan being on CNN where he was belittled by the Anchors Don Lemon and Poppy Harlow where--believe it or not--they were BACKING UP Bill Maher of all people, and his belief that Islam oppresses women.

The original clip was deleted, but I found this commentary incorporating it:
What changed since then? Don and Poppy flip-flop with the times I guess? Not being able to think for themselves, but rather proponents of what's trending for the time?

Only thing I can guess, is heavy investment by certain lobby groups. Saudi's are one of the richest representatives of Islam in the world, it would be easy for them to invest in various businesses so that they have a place on the board, or funnel money to politicians for their own interests.
I mean, money talks, everyone knows it, so I'm not saying anything except the obvious.
