It’s election season and, like clockwork, some conservatives are resorting to anti-Asian racism and anti-Chinese xenophobia as the Republican Party faces a potential shellacking in this year’s midterms.

The below campaign ad featuring Sen. Marsha Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican and gubernatorial candidate, in which she crushes fortune cookies while vowing to “hunt down” communists and “crack down on China,” is a prime example.

Some observers, while rebuking the racist video, noted that modern fortune cookies weren’t invented in China, but rather in the United States by Japanese immigrants.
