Anti-Asian sentiments in the UK?

Lately I've been seeing more and more accounts of discrimination and racially-fuelled violence against Asians, especially East and Southeast Asians, in the UK due to the coronavirus. Frankly, I'm a little hesitant to move to the UK for uni because of this. Are these instances of racism as widespread as the media makes it seem? Have you experienced or witnessed anything like this?

Good. Stay at home, we are in a pandemic. International migration isn’t sustainable and Britain must return to being 98% Anglo Saxon.

Do you plan on killing all the non-whites then?

Some sort of repatriation process. Nobody criticises the Japanese for upholding their immigration policy.

It’s what they want. They identify more strongly with their own ethno-cult. The future is in Asia anyway, not here. Nationalism has never been more trendy, people in these times just want to protect their own kind. Globalisation has ended.

No. I've not seen *any* racism towards Asians in current times. Even if people appear racist, they don't mean it... they are just reacting to what the media has told them.

The common saying is " if someone told you to jump off a bridge would u?" Springs to mind there , just because the media is telling you something it doesn't mean you have to believe it nor follow or react to it . People are capable of independent thought and still consciously choose to believe and react to what the media says about south east Asians when clearly what the media usually says isn't true if people even bothered to speak to even a handful of us they'd see just that .

Also btw I'm mixed race between Welsh and Chinese and was born in Wales but I tend to identify more with my Chinese side due to the environment in which I was brought up in school and outside of school since a young age where people identified me as Chinese via jokes and stereotypes and from when I've spoke to other bame people in my area and beyond who were also born here we all kidna feel the UK is inherently racist and we don't feel welcomed here nor fully part of the wider community and that has only been aggravated more due to the coronavirus and People further alienating south east Asians from their communities with their racism .


P.S I'm also only 17 and so this isn't even something that happened 30 or 40 years ago is happening in today's society which isn't great

In wake of the coronavirus, it’s completely unfounded, racist and ignorant. This ignorance is why Europe is now the epicentre of the outbreak

You're right about one thing.
Globalisation is on a life support.
I can't see it surviving.

I dont know, people like buying cheap tat too much to make any serious reverses overly plausible.

America is now yes

It is incredibly selfish of you to even think about flying to Europe during a pandemic. If anything the west needs a total moratorium on immigration as well as financial repatriation for foreigners already here, pretty much indefinitely.
