Ah, I see what you mean.
For what it’s worth, I have seen an uptick in anti-WMAF sentiment from Asian women themselves on social media (primarily Substack, sometimes X). Unfortunately most of it comes from hyperwoke Asian women who decry WMAF relationships as complicity with colonialist cisheteropatriarchy (or whatever verbiage the kids these days are using). Even if said women actually apply their stated beliefs to their personal lives, I couldn’t fault a well-adjusted man for not wanting to date a Person of Hair Color.
Still, perhaps there is a bit of a whitepill here: if normie, not-especially-woke Asian women absorb enough messaging from social media that WMAF is cringe and “so 2010s”, perhaps their preferences will also change: women’s preferences are famously quite susceptible to social pressure, memes, and zeitgeist. Indeed, this tweet provides some evidence in favor of this thesis.
Then again, perhaps it’s more of a graypill than a whitepill; even if true, all it establishes is that Asian women are soulless statusmaxxers who will hop onto any bandwagon as long as it’s prestigious enough … and hop right off as soon as its fortunes change.

As far as I can tell, many Asian single women are found lacking in both cases
[emphasis mine]
Berkson’s paradox.
If they were hot (viz. slim, with no tattoos, weird piercings, or unnatural hair colors) and socially adept, they wouldn’t be single. Asian women are, statistically, very likely to be hot, ergo the single ones must necessarily be socially inept. Single white women, on the other hand, are very often not hot, hence they are paradoxically more socially adept on average.
I’m not entirely sure what you mean by this. Perhaps you mean that they are less vocal about what they want and expect the man in a relationship to Just Get It. I’d probably agree with this statement, and I’d hazard a guess that it’s downstream of East Asian conflict aversion.
But the flip side is that being extra vocal in the manner of white women need not necessarily be good intersex communication skills; it could just be being kind of bitchy.
As always with a straight man, how much shit he’s willing to take mostly boils down to how hot the woman in question is. On that front, an Asian woman’s juice is (on average) worth the squeeze far more than a white woman’s is, in the modern West.

This disturbance is amplified by the type and amount of Asian-American dating content available on social media (IYKYK)
ID, in fact, K; could you explain?

For some really advanced racism, you can even drill down into the specific romanization choice, which statistically implies a certain country of origin, which in turn hones the distribution of likely occupations.
Continuing with your example:
Xiu Ying Wang => ethnic Chinese from Singapore/Malaysia => probably an accountant or similar back office role in Australia or New Zealand
Xiuying Wang => mainland Chinese => probably came to the US for a PhD in STEM
Hsiu-Ying Wang => Taiwanese => most likely working in semiconductors, or perhaps traipsing around NYC or LA as a shiftless BPD art ho (Hsiu-Ying Ho?)

The stock price moves imply a difference of like Mao and Reagan.
Yeah, because it basically is. In recent decades, avowed socialists in Latin America who come to power “democratically” have a proven track record of ignoring property rights (esp. of foreigners), nationalizing businesses, and redistributing wealth to political insiders. The market is pricing in the (very reasonable, imo) likelihood that Lula will turn out to be another iteration of Chavez or Morales.

Dumber in the sense of describing reality less well? Or in the sense of serving political ends less effectively?

The Hasdics don't [sic] money to do all this the Amish don't either because they have a real community.
Gonna disagree with you on the Chasidim; they are well-documented welfare cheats all throughout the northeastern US.

the fact that he inspired the other Scott to write "Radicalizing the Romanceless."
pushes up glasses
Well actually, he inspired Scott (PBUH) to write “Untitled”, which came out a year or so after “Radicalizing the Romanceless”. Both absolute bangers, though.

The US never gets any credit for any of the great things we do (Covid vaccines being a recent example) but gets maximum blame for bad things.

She looks like "I am about to slip some gelsemine into your tea and then sit by your bedside mopping your brow and cooing reassuringly as you slowly succumb to its effects, in the best traditions of the Golden Age of British murder".
Indeed, sounds like something out of a story involving rather a different Holmes. Nominative determinism fails?

Buddy, the case is about filicide, not fratricide (or commutative groups)

In fact, we don’t even have to imagine: this exact situation happened in 2020 (Mike Adams, see links downthread)

shifter romances with heat cycles
I honestly thought you were talking about an automotive romance, involving an analysis of the thermodynamic (Carnot) cycle. Carry on.
Interesting proposal, a squad of goons operating in a legal gray area re: the state’s monopoly on violence, for the purpose of abetting the political fortunes of an avowed socialist. Pink-ertons, if you will.

I didn’t see this before I commented upthread that a reasonable cop in that situation could have decided that lethal force was necessary. If anything, the video from this angle only strengthens my previous claim: before, I thought that the cop who fired his gun did not know whether the suspect had a knife in his right hand, but could reasonably have feared that he did; now, I see that the cop did, in fact, know with certainty that the suspect was holding a knife.
AFAICT the only argument against the cop’s actions is that the suspect was already on the ground at the time shots were fired. This is true, but a knife-wielding maniac on the ground can still pose a deadly threat to those around him, particularly when the knife and the hand holding it have just wriggled free of an LEO’s grasp and when it is not clear that the knife-wielder was successfully tased. The fact that the suspect appeared to be on the ground at the precise moment of the shooting is not dispositive of anything: he had, a few seconds prior, forcefully regained full control of a deadly weapon, and thus an officer could reasonably fear that he would strike someone with it.
“Ho” is the Wade-Giles romanization of a Mandarin sound (“He” in Pinyin). Though it can also be a transliteration of Cantonese, as you said.
