    “this ethnic group with its own traditions and customs would gladly abandon their identity if given the opportunity to become American subjects”

    this is the whitest thing I’ve ever seen. Complete western brain. There are millions of Hmongic speakers and the Miao retain their culture and values, while also speaking Mandarin/Cantonese. They’re a recognized and protected ethnic group by the Chinese state and this is tyranny? Asking them to trade away their culture and language is freedom? Cool
