@shtupurgnamakit I can't remember the exact details, but I had a discussion with one of the CM's about Mental Health awareness about a year ago. I know they are supportive of Mental Health but can't remember the exact details and don't want to accidentally say something that's inaccurate.

I personally make frequent donations to a US Mental Health nonprofit that provides mental health services to those who have difficulty accessing mental health care.

@B3ntar Agreed, it would be a brilliant badge to have, my younger brother is also autistic.

@Lord_Scorpion34 Thanks for explaining that, I was also confused when the stop asian hate badge sprung up. In the UK its not really much of an issue either.

@Lord_Scorpion34 I was shocked that there were a lot of violent reactions against the BLM and stop asian badge here in the forums. I was not aware that supporting abused communities in the USA was something political? I know that Japanese people has some sort xenophobia (especially the older citizens) and some Filipinos are racists but not as a big of an issue compared to the States.

  @Cheese9Man There is always some sort of hate everywhere. Either racial or religious. In USA it's worse because it's both.
  
  People will blame Asians for virus, but then the same people will go on to hold church gatherings. Like bruh? I am not from USA, but that's what it looks like to me.
