Just because everyone in China is at least as racist as Donald Trump doesn't mean we can be racist toward Chinese/Asians. Being not as bad as China or not as bad as Trump shouldn't be the bar we're aiming for.

i like how singling out behaviors of specific cultural/ethnic groups is racist now. like talking about or thinking about the world through ethnic or racial divisions is Bad even if not explicitly through the intent to otherize despite the fact that it's probably how most of the world perceives the world around them its given me a weird perspective on this stuff being from a family of proud eastern europeans in america who consider themselves culturally and ethnically different and yet 'slav' is just 'white.' made worse by the fact that everyone just thinks i'm a jew instead

When people ask I refuse to be called Chinese. I always redirect them to Hong Konger. I did confuse the hell of of some people when I referred to myself as a "British Chinese" once. that was good for a laugh.

like today I went to swim for working out and two...I would guess 10-12 year olds followed me into the locker room and one of them was like "the foreigner will shower maybe we can have a look" and they awkwardly stood at the shower while I changed and I just ignored them because why ever bother. I had an old man scream in my face when I was changing clothes HALLLOUUUU after I finished my work out. I had a girl in my apartment complex, after I held the elevator door for her, tell me she didn't want to take this elevator. And a grandma and her granddaughter got up and moved seats when I sat down next to them on the bus. All of this happened to me...not in the past year, not in the past month...in the past 24 hours. Should I start a hash tag? No, I came home to my wife and kid and ignored it like an adult, tho I did mock it on WeChat in one group I'm a part of, and mock it here on somethingawful. Welcome to a day in the life of TGA, the long blond hair, blue eyed foreigner who understands Chinese. Today was worse than most...but not by much

Haier how long is your nose? I mean by chinese standards? Also I find the mongolian woman stories interesting because I cant tell if she has self awarness or not. The whole "sorry I called you a poopy head I dont know how to deal with my emotions, very well" "its okay in time you will learn how to deal with them" "thank you poopy head also you have a japanese penis" Its like you must have lost face just for forgiving her or something.

If the Mongol hadn't been crazy I would have gladly called it quits on trying to find a girlfriend or new girl and been satisfied with her. I am annoyed I now have scrounge around for someone sane and start all over. I may always post about talking to and dating a lot of women, but it's tiring as hell and I just want one decent woman to be with and to call it quits on the rest until I leave this country. I doubt it's going to happen. I will keep posting my crazy lady stories until I self-ban myself later.

What if you're good at math because you worked hard? No appreciation. Haier posted:TCM actually has a face reading category and for noses on men it directly correlates nose to penis size. What about crooked noses? And I wonder how much that has to do with the dick size stereotypes.

The thing about actual racism in America is that some of it is from minorities on other minorities and you get a discount on the national racometer for that because it's a part of their culture and therefore you should respect it. If it weren't for the first/second gen Asian populations, the trodden upon Italianos, and the proud Puerto Ricans I don't know if I would have ever heard the word "friend of the family" in NYC, outside of hip hop or rap lyrics I mean.

Are you black? If yes then you would have heard the word friend of the family a lot regardless of where you live. If you're white then shut the gently caress up.

White people going someplace like china is often their first taste of 24/7 racism directed towards them. North America is probably the least racist place in the world, but that experience foreigners feel in China is actually how a lot of people born and raised in our wonderful multi-cultural continent feel every day to some degree. It's not even always the big overt hateful things, it's the constant never ending little reminders that you're seen as an outsider, an other. But I don't think anyone comes out of a situation like being a foreigner in china thinking "drat minorities back home better shut up about their so-called racist treatment after what I've seen in china!" I'd hope the reverse was true, it should give them an insight as to how many people back home are treated. I'm sure all the expat goons posting ridiculous china stories here would just as quickly make fun of ridiculous idiots back home as well, and not do something as silly as try to minimize the brutal racism many people in their home countries face after experiencing some minor annoyance level racism in china.

Don't treat the dog-whistle like it's human, it'll get bad ideas. It's amazing enough that it figured out how to repeat what it heard on the 24 hour news for the better part of a year, lets just give it kudos for that.

Just stay out of the country if you see all the above as a negative instead of a country that's changing and improving itself after so many foreign powers ravaged it in recent time. But of course you are going to stay while taking advantage of the place and milking for all its worth like many others have done.
