being submissive to the Chinese

:bottom-speak: :xi-plz:

In fairness, that was explicitly the Yellow scare.

Weird that the Red scare didn’t involve so much paranoia about Communists fucking white women though. I wonder why :us-foreign-policy:

Yes.

Its the late 80s/early 90s Japan scare all over again. You can find so many movies from that era set in the future that have a quaint American business that’s being bought out or run by some shady Japanese cabal.

People were actually convinced that Japan was taking over the US. I guess with the Soviet Union dissolved, Americans needed some new bogeyman to be afraid of.
