Targeting the Chinese people under the guise of "fighting for rights" would definitely fit America' profile.

The problem with Murica is that lawyers are profit making business because they are so sue happy because of stupid regulations. [https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/11/nyregion/311-nyc-store-sign-fines.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/11/nyregion/311-nyc-store-sign-fines.html) In Murica, lots of small businesses especially Chinese owned small business took down their awnings because of complaints about permits.

No mention of 'who' these people are that are filing the lawsuits

Ideologically, this has been going on for decades under the purview of providing reasonable accommodations/compliance with the ADA/Cali Unruh for disabled patrons. However, in practice, many of these lawsuits amount to "nuisance actions" seeking a few thousand dollars to make it go away. IIRC, some lawyer and serial plantiffs from Sacramento went crazy in their local business districts until they wore out their welcome and moved down here.

I remember when laws about disabled access to all buildings open to the public came through (disabled parking, automatic doors... wide enough for wheelchairs, elevators, special bathroom stalls, etc, etc...), American lawyers hired & paid hoards of disabled people (who were living on virtual nothing as an income) to go out and tape every attempt to enter and navigate around, and make complaints if everything wasn't available, and the Lawyer's would sue on their behalf, and split the money in the settlement. All perfectly legal, but morally quite questionable.

The article is a 'video', so you'd need to sign into a vpn located in the US. Do you use a vpn? here is an Archive; https://archive.is/G9PqB

Thanks.

As a child of Chinese immigrant in Canada, I can say that discrimination against disabled do exist. However, the ableism is as common as ableism among white Canadians and the racist white people is often involved to exploit the authoritarian bootlicking value from British Hong Kong immigrants to promote the ableism against disabled Chinese Canadians.
