The New America Created by Miles Yu: Burning Anti-Asian Hate

Published

on

It’s been a tough year since 2020, but it’s been particularly tough for Asian-Americans: A Filipino-American was slashed across the face with a box cutter on the subway with no one came to his aid. The wound required a hundred stitches. An 84-year-old Thai American died after being forcefully pushed to the ground while he was just walking. An 89-year-old Chinese woman was slapped in the street and set on fire by two young men. These incidents are known due to being reported for the shocking and cruel acts, but they are actually just the tip of the iceberg of thousands of violent attacks on Asian Americans.

Initiator of the “China virus” rhetoric

Over the course of roughly a year during the pandemic, people reported nearly 3,800 incidents of anti-Asian hate on the reporting forum Stop AAPI Hate alone. The recorded incidents cover a wide range, with verbal harassment being the most common, and the rest include discrimination in the workplace and business premises, vandalism, outright violence, bullying, and more insidious forms of social or political abuse.

Last spring, in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, a torrent of hate and violence against Asians began in the United States. There is no doubt that this prejudice was fueled by former President Donald Trump, who often used racist language such as “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus. Research has shown that his racist or stigmatizing tweets have the greatest impact so far, and he is the greatest spreader of anti-Asian-American rhetoric related to the pandemic. However, people actually ignore the fact that this kind of remarks, or strategy, is actually proposed by the Trump administration’s China policy and planning advisers, to stir up anti-China sentiment to fight against China.

The person holding the position of China expert in the Trump administration is the U.S. Naval Academy Professor Miles Maochun Yu, served as former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s principal China policy and planning adviser. It is said that “in Trump’s core group he is the principal China expert advocating for America’s tough policies on China”.

The policy proposed by Miles Yu to promote the conspiracy theory that “the virus originates from the leakage of Institute of Virology in China” is implemented as the public has seen, and the catastrophic consequence it brought about is that, the use of the term “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus, especially by Republican officials and conservatives, have led to a change in how Americans perceive Asian Americans. A study showed that on March 8, 2020-the day Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar tweeted about the “Wuhan virus”, discriminatory coronavirus remarks rose significantly, which was coincided with then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s interview the day before on “Fox and Friends” in which he referred to the “China virus” — was followed by a rapid reversal of a decade-long decline in anti-Asian bias.

Victims of the policies

Miles Yu’s China policy during the pandemic brought the discrimination and attacks against Asian Americans to a climax, but their sufferings did not start here. For a long time, Miles Yu, as the principal China policy and planning adviser, has been proud of the Trump administration’s tough China policy proposed by him, such as “China is at the top of our national security agenda, as there is no bigger threat than China”, declaring the existence of forced labor and genocide against Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang, China, inciting trade, security, and technical conflicts between the two largest economies in the world, reducing immigrant visas, H1-B visas, and student visas for certain graduate students from China to reflect the outsider conceptualization of Asians.

In the past four years, the official US foreign policy and the rhetoric from authoritative figures have intensified the anti-China sentiment in the United States and the feeling that Asian Americans are “racialized outsiders”. Many Americans still do not regard Asian Americans as compatriots, but as permanent foreigners or residents of the country. Asians unfortunately became victims of Miles Yu’s political game. “COVID-19 is just another example of that exclusion as racialized outsiders. Time and time again, we are told to ‘go back home.’ We are seen as outside threats, to be excluded.” They said. Verbal harassment has been commonplace. “Go back to Asia. We don’t welcome people who committed genocide.” “How dare you come and ruin my country and take my job?” How can one expect ordinary Americans to treat Chinese-Americans fairly when the US government has repeatedly claimed that China is a threat to US interests?

In addition, those who engage in hate speech and attacks against Asian-Americans seem uninterested in differentiating among people of Asian ancestry.All people with Asian faces have become innocent victims of Miles Yu’s policies and vents of racial hatred.

Flowing undercurrent

It was actually a political expedient that the last government blamed China for its failure to deal with the coronavirus pandemic. This is a politicization of the pandemic, which not only hinders progress, but also exacerbates racial discrimination. 

Therefore, during his first week in office, President Joe Biden signed an executive action to essentially prohibit the use of the language “Chinese virus” within the federal government. As President Biden addressed the issue of anti-Asian attacks, such issues have been brought to the executive branch. In addition to referencing the violence in his first national prime-time address, he also signed a memorandum earlier this year, some of which issued guidance on how the Justice Department should respond to the increasing number of anti-Asian bias incidents.

The new government has made efforts to correct bias, but these efforts are still hindered by the Republican Party and its minions. Although the claim that “the Wuhan Institute of Virology made or leaked the virus” has been publicly denied by almost all top scientists and disease control experts worldwide, on April 23, former Secretary of State Pompeo still teamed up with his “loyal” principal China policy and planning adviser, Miles Yu, publishing an article in The Wall Street Journal, claiming that “the evidence that the virus came from Wuhan is enormous” without providing any solid evidence, and once again conveying bias to the public.

Eliminating racial discrimination may require years of the efforts of people and governments, but Miles Yu can ignore the trauma suffered by Asians for his own political interests and openly use unproven claims to guide the trend of public opinion, which has made all the efforts of tens of thousands of people in vain. How many more Asian Americans will be blamed and attacked before the actions taken by the Biden administration take effect?

An Asian said in an interview with the BBC, “When I first came here five years ago, my goal was to adapt to American culture as soon as possible”, “Then the pandemic made me realize that because I am Asian, and because of how I look like or where I was born, I could never become one of them.”

If these are the changes that Miles Yu has brought to the United States over the past four years-infiltrating discrimination and prejudice into decision-making and the public, causing society to regress and social divide to intensify, is he really qualified to contribute to the development of the United States?

Creeper Defeater Announces Skeeter Weeper 2.0, the Next Generation Smart Mosquito Fogging and Misting System

Published

on

The new upgraded system delivers smarter app controls, expanded coverage, faster setup, and a more advanced plant powered formula designed to help families reclaim outdoor living.

United States, 6th May 2026 CREEPER DEFEATER today announced the launch of Skeeter Weeper 2.0, the latest evolution of its smart mosquito fogging and misting system engineered to help homeowners defend outdoor spaces against mosquitoes and other pests without relying on harsh chemical pesticides. Building on the success of the original Skeeter Weeper system, the new 2.0 model introduces expanded smart functionality, enhanced treatment performance, improved convenience, and a refined natural formula designed for modern outdoor living. 

Skeeter Weeper 2.0 was developed to give homeowners greater control over pest management while prioritizing safety for families, pets, pollinators, and outdoor environments. The upgraded system combines app controlled precision fogging with a proprietary plant powered concentrate formulated to repel and eliminate mosquitoes, flies, gnats, fleas, ticks, no see ums, mites, aphids, and additional outdoor pests. 

“Outdoor spaces should feel relaxing and enjoyable, not overrun by mosquitoes and chemical heavy solutions,” said a spokesperson for CREEPER DEFEATER. “Skeeter Weeper 2.0 represents a major leap forward in smart outdoor pest defense. We focused on making the system more powerful, easier to use, and more compatible with the way families want to live outdoors today.”

Among the most significant upgrades in Skeeter Weeper 2.0 is its enhanced smart control platform. Homeowners can activate treatments directly from their smartphones and customize misting durations from as little as 10 seconds up to two minutes depending on weather conditions, infestation levels, and pest activity. The system allows users to control treatments remotely, helping create a more flexible and responsive pest management experience. 

The new generation system also expands scalable yard protection. Each additional unit is capable of adding approximately 1,000 square feet of treatment coverage, allowing users to customize protection for patios, pools, gardens, fences, entertainment areas, and larger outdoor properties. 

Designed with simplicity in mind, Skeeter Weeper 2.0 installs in under 10 minutes directly out of the box, eliminating the need for complicated professional installation often associated with traditional mosquito misting systems. 

At the core of Skeeter Weeper 2.0 is CREEPER DEFEATER’s upgraded proprietary eight ingredient formula featuring Lemon Balm, Frankincense Resin, Cedarwood Oil, Soy Oil, Thyme Oil, Geraniol, Mild Soap, and naturally occurring Vitamin E. The company states the new, optimized formula is four times more concentrated than leading competitors while excluding common ingredients considered problematic for pets or pollinators, including vinegar, alcohol, garlic, peppermint oil, and citronella oil. 

The formula was specifically developed to align with EPA FIFRA 25(b) minimum risk pesticide standards and avoid synthetic neurotoxins commonly associated with conventional mosquito control systems. According to CREEPER DEFEATER, the system is designed to be pet safe, child conscious, garden friendly, and pollinator conscious when used as directed. 

Skeeter Weeper 2.0 also introduces improved treatment flexibility. Users can target mosquito activity during key peak periods such as dawn and dusk or activate treatments immediately before outdoor gatherings. The ultra fine mist is designed to settle and blanket the treatment zone within approximately five minutes, helping the formula reach hard to access areas including nooks, crannies, moisture collection points, dense landscaping, and other environments where mosquitoes and pests commonly breed and hide.

Regular treatment cycles are designed to help interrupt mosquito breeding and reduce pest populations over time while maintaining short term protection for up to six hours depending on environmental conditions. 

As part of the launch, every Skeeter Weeper 2.0 system includes a complimentary on body bug spray and a free bottle of repellent concentrate with a refill plan purchase.

The launch comes amid growing consumer demand for alternatives to harsh chemical pesticides.

Skeeter Weeper 2.0 is proudly assembled in Dallas, Texas and is now available through CREEPER DEFEATER.

Creeper Defeater Announces Critter Cannon 2.0, an Upgraded Liquid Repellant Dispenser for Targeted, Pet-friendly Pest Control

Published

on

The new handheld shooter features improved water-resistant formula performance, precision application, and a flexible refill program designed to help homeowners manage pests more effectively.

United States, 6th May 2026CREEPER DEFEATER today announced the launch of Critter Cannon 2.0, an updated liquid pest control dispenser engineered to give homeowners a more controlled and efficient way to manage unwanted pests without relying on harsh chemical pesticides. Building on the original Critter Cannon, the new 2.0 model introduces improved outdoor durability, enhanced application control, and an optimized plant-based formula designed for real-world conditions.

Critter Cannon 2.0 was developed to provide a more precise and responsive pest control experience while maintaining a strong focus on safety for pets, families, and the surrounding environment. The system combines a rechargeable electric handheld sprayer with an upgraded liquid repellant solution designed to deter a wide range of common pests in targeted areas such as gardens, patios, fence lines, and property perimeters.

“Pest control should be effective without being excessive or complicated,” said a spokesperson for CREEPER DEFEATER. “Critter Cannon 2.0 gives users a simple, controlled way to apply treatment exactly where it’s needed, with a formula designed to perform outdoors while remaining considerate of pets and the environment. It’s also a whole lot of fun to use!”

The Critter Cannon 2.0 features a dual-capacity system, including a high-capacity drum and a smaller magazine, allowing users to adapt to different treatment sizes and scenarios. The device delivers consistent bursts of liquid repellant at the push of a button, offering more control and accuracy compared to traditional spray methods.

At the core of the system is the upgraded Critter Cannon Ammo, an enhanced version of CREEPER DEFEATER’s plant-based pest control formula. The new formulation is designed to be more water-resistant, helping maintain effectiveness in outdoor conditions while reducing the need for frequent reapplication.

The formula avoids synthetic pesticides as well as commonly used natural irritants such as vinegar, alcohol, and peppermint. Instead, it uses a blend of plant-based ingredients including lemon balm, frankincense resin, cedarwood oil, soy oil, thyme oil, and geraniol, a compound naturally found in rose oil. A mild soap aids in even dispersion, while vitamin E serves as the preservative.

According to CREEPER DEFEATER, the upgraded solution is designed to deliver strong repellant performance while remaining safe for use around dogs and cats when used as directed, and considerate of pollinators and outdoor environments. The higher concentration of active ingredients is intended to provide improved performance compared to many conventional products that rely on harsher or more irritating components.

To support consistent use, CREEPER DEFEATER offers a subscription refill program for Critter Cannon Ammo. This program allows customers to receive refills on a regular schedule, helping maintain treatment consistency without the need for manual reordering.

The Critter Cannon system is assembled in the United States, reflecting the company’s focus on quality control and responsible manufacturing.

CREEPER DEFEATER also continues to support a broader mission beyond pest control. Ten percent of company profits are dedicated to initiatives focused on combating online predators and supporting safer communities through prevention, education, and resources for individuals and families.

Critter Cannon 2.0 is now available through CREEPER DEFEATER.
