So I read it...or at least some of it. Written by a self-described
NY Brit Expat, of the DKos community and not reviewed by staff (they
won't even put their stamp of approval on it) he/she/it says
The rise of and normalisation of the far-right has always meant the
increase in political attacks on those already oppressed in our
societies; attacks against people of colour, attacks against migrants
and foreigners, attacks against women’s rights and attacks against
LGBTQ+ are part and parcel of the propaganda of the far-right and
fascists. For obvious examples, take a look at Poland and Hungary,
take a look at some US states where the far-right is in control, like
Texas,
Now I'm going to venture a guess that this idiot has never been to or
lived in Texas. But I have family living in Texas and without going
into a lot of detail, they are people of color who fled Ca. for
Texas. They love it. They are living the American dream in Texas.
Some Brit expat living in NY should do Texans a favor....and stay in
NY.
Since the Lege is in session, we find a bill proposed to prevent Chinese real estate purchases in Texas ticks three of your boxes.\\
You fucking MORON!

If that's all we have to worry about is "political attacks" we can
all rest easy and live well.
In reality Texas is no different than Ca. except being far more
economically friendly.
Then again, I needed a tire replaced immediately and went into a
local hispanic owned tire shop and was told...they didn't have
anything for me. They only sold tires that Mexicans want. No knowing
I have a some spanish from my wife and our long time gardener I sat
quietly through a whole bunch of comments from the crew changing my
tire. I didn't give a crap what they said....but they intentionally
bent my wheel which really pissed me off.

I suspect they mean Chinese gov't.
But if you think selling property to every interest in the world is
going to help our own poor and impoverished, I think you're stupid
and a danger to the first time home buyer.

Kinda is, unless there's a sort of racism that doesn't include banning Chinese people from buying property.

Demand drive prices. Kind of basic.
Letting rich foreigners hold their wealth in US property is not good for anyone but current property owners. The rich getting richer while
new generations are locked out. And it is often of grossly disproportionate impact. Which makes your advocacy of Chinese investment....racist.

They are not US citizens you FUCKING IMBECILE
It is NOT racism.
People of Chinese ethnicity who are not citizens of those four nations can buy
land in the US.
And foreign nationals who are Filipinos, Japanese, Burmese, Vietnamese, etc. can buy land here.
It is very common that countries ban or restrict foreign nationals from owning real estate.
As an example, the Philippines does it. They are not racist against white people.
Nor do we have a law banning all foreign nationals from buying real estate.
Nor do we have a law banning all foreign nationals from buying real estate.
Just from countries that are doing us harm.
That is the criteria, not race, you stinking dimwit,
