It's not about worse- it's about generalizations that don't hold up (your generalization, if you recall). There were plenty of non-progressive non-liberal bigots (and from what I recall Miller was not a liberal republican)- so your attempt, in my opinion, to make it about liberals and progressives is distorting history. I don't know why you want to distort it, and I don't really care- I was merely commenting upon the distortion, and that is all.

"Before Mao took over China, liberals and progressives demonized and stereotyped Asians (especially in the West). "

the above should really read:

Before Mao took over China, liberals and progressives, and conservatives- in fact most people in the US who had anything to say on the matter, demonized and stereotyped Asians (the same was true in Australia, and to a lesser extent, the UK).
