None of it matters at all, it's never been about race specifically, it's about power and control and insecurity. These are the factors that turn people into murderers. Race is always just a convenient decoy they can point at.
Race is connected just in that most of these fucksticks are deeply insecure about someone of another race being more exotic and attractive to their girlfriends, and that sexual insecurity just manifests as this bottomless well of hate and anger, because that's the only kind of emotion they think they can have as men.
But really, through all of history the people who persecute the people of different races or ethnicities have often also taken advantage of or been deeply attracted to those people as well, and it becomes this toxic well of shame and hate. Stephen Miller is jewish. Vance has to apologize for his wife being Hindu. The leader of the Proud Boys was hispanic. Don't try to make any of it make sense, just understand that these are not thinking people, if they could think through their problems we wouldn't be in this mess to begin with.
Sure it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. But as an Asian living in the west myself it's just weird to me that so many of these Asian women in the west are so self hating that they rather be in a relationship with a racist piece of shit as long as he's white than be with a normal stand up guy who is non-white and they especially don't want to be with anyone who is of their own ethnicity.
People broadly don't think social issues are going to effect them personally and are real good at making excuses for stability and comfort. It's not that American Asian women are broadly "self hating" in fact it's usually the exact opposite, they are very strong, prideful people which is where the meme comes from making fun of incels for thinking asian women are submissive.
I don't know what brings a couple like this together, I'm sure it's complicated, but I have strong feeling that she's filipina, and if I know anything it's that she is haaaaating this media attention and social shaming, and as a result is making this dude's life hell. It's not nearly enough but I do delight in the fact that they're both suffering together on this front.
