I don't think he specified if they were black.
However...I'm going to assume he has some prejudices against black Africans.

BTW Why would a white supremacist marry a Chinese woman and have half-asian kids? Doesn't that sound a bit illogical? Aren't you overreacting by quickly yanking out the supremacist card just because he points out issues in China?

It isn't illogical. Many White supremacists specifically seek out Asian women because they feel they are more docile, subservient and conservative. Also, many Asian women have some fucked up ingrained idea that Whites are better than other races, so the racist White men get off on this. This is why many conservative White men have specifically foreign Asian women spouses who barely understand American culture or speak English fluently. It's actually a meme, not some isolated case.

Happens all the time.

It's a fetish of some sort.

The Alt-Right’s Asian Fetish

By Audrea Lim

• Jan. 6, 2018

The white supremacists on the far right have “yellow fever” — an Asian woman fetish. It’s a confusing mix.

Andrew Anglin, the founder of the neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer, once posted a video of himself with a Filipina he called “my jailbait girlfriend,” the young couple flirting as they sauntered through a megamall in the Philippines. Richard Spencer, a white nationalist, has dated a series of Asian-American women, according to one of his ex-girlfriends. (Mr. Spencer insists that it was before he embraced white nationalism.)

The right-wing agitator Mike Cernovich, the writer John Derbyshire and an alt-right figure named Kyle Chapman (so notorious for swinging a lead-filled stick at Trump opponents at a protest in Berkeley, Calif., that he is now a meme) are all married to women of Asian descent. As a commenter wrote on an alt-right forum, “exclusively” dating Asian women is practically a “white-nationalist rite of passage.”

In November 2016, a photo of Tila Tequila giving a Nazi salute went viral. Ms. Tequila is the Vietnamese-American star of the short-lived MTV reality show “A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila,” and she was saluting at a dinner the night before the conference of Richard Spencer’s white-supremacist think tank, the National Policy Institute. At the conference, Mr. Spencer had reminded attendees that America was a “white country designed for ourselves and our posterity.”

Maybe it makes sense that the alt-right is so confused: On a neo-Nazi news site, a user asked advice on whether he could be a white nationalist if he slept with East Asian women, and he received dozens of spirited responses from both sides. But the white-supremacist Asian fetish is no contradiction.
It exists at the intersection of two popular racial myths. First is the idea of the “model minority,” in which Asian-Americans are painted as all hard-working, high-achieving and sufficiently well-behaved to assimilate. If Asians are the model minority — if that is how nonwhites can find acceptance in white America — then perhaps that opens the door to acceptance from white supremacists.

The second myth is that of the subservient, hypersexual Asian woman. The white-supremacist fetish combines those ideas and highlights a tension within the project of white supremacism as America grows more diverse — a reality that white nationalists condemn as “white genocide.” The new, ugly truth? Maintaining white power may require some compromises on white purity.
Was Tila Tequila at that white supremacist dinner just attempting, in some twisted way, to assimilate? Or to rebel against what was expected of her? I cringe at her antics, at her trying to be just one of the white-supremacist bros.But the photo also conjured up my memories of being a 14-year-old Asian girl in an overwhelmingly white school who wanted to be interesting, self-possessed and liked. Instinctively, I knew it meant distancing myself from the other Asian kids, especially the nerdy and studious ones. I knew I had succeeded when a friend remarked that I wasn’t really Asian, I was white, “because you’re cool.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/22/...on=CompanionColumn&contentCollection=Trending
As I skipped classes to smoke in the courtyard, read Baudelaire to seem the “interesting” kind of smart and attempted to distance myself from the stereotypes, I didn’t know that the idea I wanted to run from — of Asians as civilized, advanced and highly intelligent — had roots in white supremacy. But between the white supremacist Chris Cantwell’s tattoo of a Japanese character and the Charleston shooter Dylann Roof’s speculations that Asians “could be great allies of the white race,” there are echoes of history’s most infamous white nationalist.
“I have never regarded the Chinese or the Japanese as being inferior to ourselves,” Adolf Hitler said in 1945. “They belong to ancient civilizations, and I admit freely that their past history is superior to our own.”
In the United States, the model-minority myth grew from Asian-Americans’ mid-20th-century efforts to win civil rights, as the scholar Ellen D. Wu recounts in “The Color of Success.” Previously, Asian-Americans, many with humble roots in rural China, were considered degenerate, subject to lynchings, and forced to live in segregated neighborhoods and attend segregated schools under a regime of discriminatory laws and practices she has called a “cousin to Jim Crow.”
But, according to Professor Wu’s research, Chinese-Americans promoted themselves as hard-working, obedient, family-oriented and able to easily assimilate into American life — traits that are not uncommon in poor immigrant communities, where many have made enormous sacrifices to move to a foreign place.

By the height of the civil rights movement, America was already giving preferential treatment to educated, professional Asian immigrants, reinforcing the idea of Asians as pliable and studious. White politicians co-opted the myth, pointing to Asian-Americans as proof that the right kind of minority group could achieve the American dream.
Professor Wu found that just months before the release of the 1965 Moynihan Report, the widely influential policy paper that attributed black poverty to a degenerate black culture, its author, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, spoke at a gathering of intellectuals and policymakers about how Japanese- and Chinese-Americans, considered “colored” just 25 years earlier, were “rather astonishing.” “Am I wrong that they have ceased to be colored?” he asked.

In reality, Asians are rarely considered white, and the model-minority myth obscures the vast differences among Asian-Americans. What’s more, the myth helped to strengthen America’s white liberal order, which claims to uphold diversity while also being anti-black. It legitimizes white America’s power to determine who is “good” and to offer basic dignity and equal rights.

The model-minority myth exists alongside another dangerous and limiting idea — one that is consistent with the alt-right’s misogyny and core anti-feminist values. The main problem with white women, as many alt-right Asian fetishists have noted, is they’ve become too feminist. By contrast, Asian women are seen as naturally inclined to serve men sexually and are also thought of as slim, light-skinned and small, in adherence to Western norms of femininity.

These stereotypes have roots in America’s postwar military incursions into Asia. In Japan, a network of brothels permitted by American officials opened as United States troops began arriving in August 1945. The brothels employed tens of thousands of women until Gen. Douglas MacArthur declared them off limits in 1946.
In South Korea, an estimated 300,000 women were working in the sex trade by 1958 (after the end of the Korean War), with more than half employed in the “camptowns” around the American bases. Vietnam’s sex industry, centered largely on American bars, thrived during the Vietnam War. And the stereotype of docile Asian women persists. Nowhere is this more explicit than in sex ads and online pornography.
Tila Tequila — Playboy model, reality show star, aspiring rapper and one of a handful of female Asian-American celebrities — is often seen through this trope. Does she resent being typecast as the hot, horny Asian as much as I resented being seen as a “model minority”?
Yet after I was called “white” at age 14, it felt, paradoxically, like a compliment to be nicknamed Geisha Girl by another friend, a well-meaning gay white boy. This was not because I was delicate. But the nickname became our inside joke, and it symbolized the kind of femininity that attracted the boys I liked, but that I have never really possessed. Being in on the joke meant I was accepted. Since then, I have acted out in all manner of ways to dispel the “model minority” image. Still, I have never fully extinguished the belief that racking up an impressive lineup of achievements is the only way to gain respect.
The stereotypes that feed the Asian-woman fetish are not exclusive to the far right. They exist across the political spectrum and infect every aspect of life — not just the bedroom — and manifest themselves in figures as distant from America as the blond-haired, blue-eyed heroes and hypersexualized heroines of Japanese anime.

This fun-house mirror asks me to be smarter, nicer, prettier and more accomplished than my white counterparts for the same amount of respect, then floods my dating app inbox with messages that reek of Asian fetish. Thankfully, I’m not required to care or let it define me; for what it’s worth, I am even entitled to play up the stereotypes if I see something to be gained. Maybe this is where the Asian girlfriends of alt-right men stand. But none of us can escape the truth that the fun-house was built to justify systematic exploitation of everyone in this country who isn’t white. That’s important context. Otherwise, Richard Spencer’s comments could almost sound nice.

“There is something about the Asian girls,” he once said to Mother Jones. “They are cute. They are smart. They have a kind of thing going on.”

That's a completely stupid conclusion. I guess it is ok to completely ignore those with other non-white girlfriends/wives (like black women) as I guess it is just an aberration. Black fetishes, Brown fetishes, Red, green, blue etc..

It isn't illogical. Many White supremacists specifically seek out Asian women because they feel they are more docile, subservient and conservative. Also, many Asian women have some fucked up ingrained idea that Whites are better than other races, so the racist White men get off on this. This is why many conservative White men have specifically foreign Asian women spouses who barely understand American culture or speak English fluently. It's actually a meme, not some isolated case.

So somebody who wants to maintain the supremacy of their race is going the interracial kids route? Are you thinking this out clearly?? I think you aren't.

It is completely different with Black women, particularly African American women. Most Black women are very opinionated about race and resentful of White privilege and supremacy. So if a White man is dating a Black women, they are typically going to have to be pro-Black politically for the Black woman to be ok with the relationship.

On the other hand, many racist White men love Asian women because they feel like the women look up to them because of their race and especially if the woman is foreign, they have a special power over the woman. Serpentza is a perfect example of this. His wife looks very depressed in their more recent videos. She is clearly being emotionally abused.

Having interracial kids doesn't mean shit. White slave masters had interracial kids with their Black slaves. It doesn't change the fact that they are White supremacists. That is why many Hapas have some fucked up identity issues because they grew up with a racist White dad and a self hating Asian mom. You never heard of the old r/hapas board? Or Eurasiantiger? Or look up 4chan, even among Alt Right white kids, the racist White man self hating Asian woman coupling is a trope, it's a fucking meme.

Let me get this straight. A racist white supremacist dating a black woman is because he is actually pro-Black politically. Uh-huh. That sounds logical.

On the other hand, many racist White men love Asian women because they feel like the women look up to them because of their race and especially if the woman is foreign, they have a special power over the woman.

Is this due to white-worshipping or the super powers white people have with our pesky mind-control abilities that turn non-white people into unwitting zombies?

Having interracial kids doesn't mean shit. White slave masters had interracial kids with their Black slaves.

Yes, but you are forgetting they had white wives whose kids got all the inheritance...can't exactly do that these days with the "Asian slave girls" and their kids living in the basement.

That is why many Hapas have some fucked up identity issues because they grew up with a racist White dad and a self hating Asian mom.

LOL! Thanks for the simplistic analysis Doctor.

There have been hapas living happily for 100's of years. This isn't something unusual or unique. Sure some have problems.

Or look up 4chan, even among Alt Right white kids, the racist White man self hating Asian woman coupling is a trope, it's a fucking meme.

Yes, 4chan is a great source for accurate analysis of things. Plenty of rational non-opinionated everyday people there...or not.

To be honest, I think you have a good picture of the reality of things.

What you have said thus far is pretty much the way it is.

It's funny and interesting to see the opposing viewpoints though.

Straight up ignorance, or willful gaslighting.

And I hate to use "woke" terms because I am not in favor of any of that.

But it is what it is.

Asian-American women are sick of sexual stereotypes. Left, a 1930s-era ad from Shanghai depicting an exoticized Chinese woman. Right, an image from an Instagram account that puts white men with Asian fetishes on blast.
Lillian, a 20-something who lives in New York and Boston, is a single Asian American woman who actively dates. Needless to say, her Tinder inbox is a hot mess.
There are the inevitable “What is your nationality? and “What are you?” messages. And there are a ton of racially charged thirsty DMs: “I’ll eat your pussy like shrimp fried rice,” one says. “I want to try my first Asian woman.”
ADVERTISEMENT

Sure, sexually explicit messages and unsolicited dick pics are par for the course for women on dating apps, but for women of color, including Asian women, it’s almost always significantly worse.
“Most of my single white friends receive only a taste of what I get on Tinder,” said Lillian, who asked that her last name be withheld for privacy reasons.
“No man has ever opened with how white women are so ‘exotic’ or opened with an assumption about how white vaginas are different from other vaginas,” she told HuffPost. “None of these messages have the same intense preoccupation with race.”
Those creepy-crawly experiences on dating apps led Lillian to create The Fleshlight Chronicles, an Instagram account where she showcases the worst offenders on Tinder and other apps. She posts screenshots of their messages alongside photos of herself looking stoic, fierce and totally over it.
ADVERTISEMENT

Lillian also invites her 21,000 followers to share the racist DMs they’ve received. She posts those, too.

The point of the project is clear: If you’re going to lazily fetishize Asian women, they’re not going to sit back and take it. They’re going to reclaim the experience and laugh at you, very publicly.
“We are not here to satiate your sexual curiosity,” Lillian said. “We are not passive objects. We have our own inner lives. We marvel and we create. We work through shit with our families. Asian Americans are filled with small idiosyncrasies, just like any other human ― though we shouldn’t have to convince anyone of that.”
Lillian’s story in many ways captures the dating landscape for Asian American women today. While Asian men are at a disadvantage dating ― one OkCupid study from 2014 found that Asian men have a harder time with online dating than people of any other race, and it’s not uncommon for Asian men to see the words “no Asians” on peoples’ profiles ― Asian women deal with the reverse problem: rampant fetishization and objectification, on- and offline.
ADVERTISEMENT

It’s become even more problematic lately, given the fixation on Asian women among members of the American far right. As writer Audrea Lim pointed out in a recent New York Times opinion piece, figures from Richard Spencer to Andrew Anglin, the founder of the neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer, have touted their Asian girlfriends or partners at one point or another.
If that seems like a case of literal strange bedfellows for a white nationalist, consider the supposed twin appeal of Asian women: They’ve got the subservient, hyper-sexual “love you long time” stereotype going for them, and they’re part of the quiet, hardworking “model minority.” For white supremacists, that’s a dream woman incarnate.

“Asians are not a monolith, but a lot of men will claim to be into Asian women when really they only mean light-skinned East Asian women.”
- Christine Liwag Dixon, Filipino American writer

“The main problem with white women is they’ve become too feminist” for the far right, Lim writes. “By contrast, Asian women are seen as naturally inclined to serve men sexually and are also thought of as slim, light-skinned and small, in adherence to Western norms of femininity.”
Indeed, not all Asian women are equal in the eyes of the fetishizer.
“Asians are not a monolith, but a lot of men will claim to be into Asian women when really they only mean light-skinned East Asian women,” Christine Liwag Dixon, a Filipino American writer in New York, told HuffPost.
“It’s like they completely forget that other Asians exist. I’ve even heard men say that Asian women are the most attractive in the world, while also saying that they aren’t attracted to Indian or Thai women,” she said. “There are Asians with curly hair. Many Asians have dark skin.”
The history of fetishizing Asian women
“Yellow fever” is, of course, nothing new.
It’s been a thing since at least the late 1800s, when the first Victorian men visited port cities in Japan and became transfixed by geishas. French writer Pierre Loti’s incredibly popular 1887 novel “Madame Chrysanthème” (later adapted into Puccini’s famous opera, “Madame Butterfly”) cemented the image of Asian women as doll-like, subservient objects of lust.
In the U.S., an interesting trend in immigration led to more prurient ideas about Asian femininity. While Chinese immigrant laborers began arriving in droves in the second half of the 19th century ― especially on the West Coast ― Chinese women stayed in Asia

Traditional Chinese cultural and filial values played a part in this, but so did fear of racism. As xenophobic immigration laws like the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 were being passed, many Chinese men feared bringing their wives abroad given the racial violence they were subjected to.
The only women who did make it across? Young women from poor families who left their homes and took the only work they could as prostitutes, said Robin Zheng, an assistant professor of philosophy at Yale-NUS College in Singapore and the author of the paper “Why Yellow Fever Isn’t Flattering: A Case Against Racial Fetishes.”
“This in turn generated the perception of Asian women as morally degenerate but also sexually alluring, which was used to justify the passing of legislative barriers that made the immigration of Asian women nearly impossible and only served to further exacerbate the low numbers of Asian women,” Zheng told HuffPost.
Even as Asian women were seen as sexually wanton, Asian men came to be thought of as desexualized or feminized ― “human oddities in the minds of whites,” as cultural studies professor Chiung Hwang Chen wrote in a 1996 academic paper.
Early Hollywood movies did the rest of the work. Asian women in 1930s films (most notably the American-born Anna May Wong) were depicted as exotic femme fatales, weaponizing their sexuality to the detriment of the men around them. Asian men, meanwhile, were cast as scheming, effete villains in silk tunics, intent on bringing down the strong, capable white protagonists.
When the U.S. gained a military presence in Asia beginning in World War II, soldiers visited sex workers and more hackneyed stereotypes about Asian womanhood sprouted up. (Think: the Vietnamese prostitute shouting “me love you long time, me sucky sucky” in broken English to GIs in “Full Metal Jacket” and longstanding racist jokes about Asian women possessing sideways vaginas.)

There’s a difference between having a type and having a fetish. Here’s how to look for red flags.
Obviously, genuine love matches do happen between Asian women and non-Asian men, from the GIs who brought home Korean war brides in the 1950s to couples meeting on Hinge and other dating apps today.
But one would hope that any interracial match is built less on a fetish and having a rigid physical “type,” and more on loving the individual person.
“It’s totally OK to have a ‘type’ when it comes to dating or sex, but I think you need to be wary of when that type veers off into exclusively entering relationships with people of a certain race,” said Katerina Jeng, co-founder of the Asian American magazine Slantd.
“When you project the same kind of personality, behavior, and values across an entire ethnic group and don’t see nuanced human [beings], that’s a racial fetish,” she said.

Jeng is happily partnered now, but in her single days, she and her friends developed a funny, fast-and-loose litmus test for Asian fetishes.
“Scroll through his Instagram. If he’s following and liking photos of hordes of Asian women, it’s a yellow-fever red flag for sure,” she said, only half joking.
“Besides that, I would straight-up just ask him about his past dating history to see if he has a fetish for Asian women, and ask for his rationale behind his choices,” she said. “If you feel he was genuinely interested in these women for who they are as humans and not for their race, he’s probably good to go.”
And if an Asian woman does decide to date a white dude, you shouldn’t assume she had no agency in the matter ― or that she’s a race traitor.
One of the more unfortunate side effects of Asian American men’s legitimate frustration with racist dating experiences is an Asian American men’s rights activist movement intent on harassing Asian women who date or marry non-Asian men. Operating from a scarcity mindset, the harassers expect women of Asian descent to date exclusively within their race, and they attack those who marry outside and raise multiracial families. As a piece on The Cut recently highlighted, in the minds of so-called “MRAsians,” there are far too many “white-worshipping” “self-hating Asian females” who date with a “colonial mentality.”
Their concern is that Asian women are dismissive of the stereotypes Asian men face while dating ― that they’re unsexy, too nerdy or not masculine enough ― but the women we spoke to all saw the fetishizing of Asian women and the emasculation of Asian men as twin problems endemic to living in a predominantly white society.
Sometimes these women fall in love with Asian men. Sometimes they fall in love with white guys, just as an Asian guy might fall for a white woman. That needs to be OK, said Lillian, the Fleshlight Chronicles creator.
“Sometimes we have friends and partners who love, respect, and honor us. People who just happen to be white,” she said. “We are not all desperate for whiteness ― to be loved by it, to be used by it, to become it. Don’t assume an Asian woman is dying to date a white man.”

Asian Fetishization IS white supremacy
by IRENE CHO
On Tuesday, March 16th, the tragic news broken that eight people were shot and killed by a white male son of a Baptist preacher terrorist.
Right out the gate, we saw police working in favor of whiteness and white supremacy, claiming they weren’t sure if the heinous violence was racially motivated.

It’s insane to me that the Sheriff just casually says “He was fed up, at the end of his rope…yesterday was a really bad day for him and this is what he did" about the killer pic.twitter.com/fNFMrvfoST

It even came to the point that during the press conference, the sheriff made a statement that the murderer was simply having a “bad day” and that his motivation wasn’t race-related but actually because he was a sex addict and wanted to squash his lust.
But it’s really important for those who are tempted to buy into this narrative being spun that
-this was a unique incident,
-the white terrorist man (not kid) had a “bad day,”
-that he was a good Christian boy and son of a Baptist pastor therefore this is not normal,
-that this isn’t about racial hate but sex addiction,
-that this isn’t about racial hate but mental health issues,
You need to understand – fetishization IS racism. It IS white supremacy. It IS hate. It IS violence against Asian women.
Some, including the police and media, will try to say this wasn’t a race crime because of the terrorist’s confession of being a sex addict. But IT ABSOLUTELY WAS. He fetishized Asian women. He didn’t target random massage parlors or ones that were employed by white women. No, he intentionally targeted parlors he had been to in which he was serviced by Asian women.
Listen, I understand your initial confusion. It took me a long time to dig in and understand this too because really, how can liking something be wrong, right? How can exotification and fetishization be wrong when something is being glorified and celebrated? I didn’t understand until I started doing the work to unpack what it actually all meant.
Here’s the thing, we see this in white supremacy – the perpetual othering in its twisted fantasizing and exotification.
We see in white supremacy the belief that Asian women are subservient and obedient to do their bidding; to be controlled.
We see in white supremacy – white people obsessed and fascinated by black people’s hair and even worse, believing they have a right to just reach out and touch a stranger’s hair as if they own them or they’re to be petted.
We see in white supremacy the commodification of foods and cultures and the belief that everything exists for the pleasure and enjoyment of white people.
No, these aren’t celebrations. It’s white supremacy. It’s othering. It’s hatred decorated as love or celebration or obsession or fetishization.
And it’s wrong.
On top of it all, it is becoming clear that the terrorist is a Christian, the son of a Baptist pastor. He was raised in his white conservative church environment.
He was raised in purity culture. He was taught that sex and sexual feelings are evil. He was taught that women are the cause of all his problems. He was taught to be ashamed even as he was taught to objectify women.
What we need to continually understand and dismantle is the direct correlation that exists between white Christianity and white supremacy, along with the core tenets of patriarchy and misogyny that keep the two intertwined.
Now some will at this point bring in an argument of how Asian women tend to marry white men and so if white men are so terrible, why do they do that? However, that is an entirely different, complicated issue of assimilation and the absolute need to decolonize the way the world has been taught to elevate and center whiteness.
It has NOTHING to do with the fetishization – Asian women are not fetishizing white men. There is no power going from a colonizer to the colonized.
And the issue with white Christianity is its toxic worship of power, and how it does everything possible to maintain that power. We saw this in the 2016 and 2020 elections, as well as the storming of the capital to overthrow the government.
We will see how the media continues to spin this in the coming hours and days, as we know because the terrorist is a young white man and white supremacy in this country will protect him at all costs.
I don’t believe, after 4 years of a white supremacist racist administration and after an entire year of Trump screaming Chinavirus and Kung Flu, that justice will be served.
Yet I still ever hold onto hope because otherwise, I would be losing my soul and humanity to white supremacy and its hate it wishes to spread and poison everywhere.
This is what I carry today.

So many straws out there in cyberspace!

Racist white males who hate Asians, especially Asian men, hunt self hating Asian woman to exploit. Of course, the white supremacist hamawhatever (has an Asian woman and a white male in his profile picture) and jerks off whenver a natural disaster hits Chinese people would gaslight you and tell you it's "all in your head". There are literally thousands of examples of these white racist psychopaths who pretend their "love is color blind" while spewing anti Asian hate at the same time.

Ya, hamaracist, racist white males are totally not racist monsters. All these reports are just "totally not real".
