This Asuka is a Nazi, I think that would change the backstory for it a little.
I don't see any proof that she is a nazi here. She could just be part of some armed force for all we know; just because she is dressed in black and has a red armband doesn't mean she is part of a specific political party.

also...would this count as racist?
Why would it? There is no injurious or violent act against a racial group here so no need for such adjective here.
