Of course not. It should be obvious to everybody that the Chinese do “fraud / copy other stuff without any guilty”.
So, Yumm, are you saying that other Europeans have this view of Chinese (smelly, dirty and generally unpleasant), or is this just your perception of them?
If it’s the former, perhaps you could find a way to work in your nationality when making casual conversation, such as “Oh? You have a dog? Well, when I was growing up in South Korea, I had a parakeet…”*
If it’s the latter, then I can see the frustration, but just because you feel that way about Chinese people doesn’t necessarily mean that they do as well. I have a friend who is Puerto Rican and one time someone asked if he was Dominican. I’d never seen him get so angry. He went off on a tirade, saying how Dominicans were lazy, trashy, etc. Of course, if you show any sign of weakness to teenage boys, you’d better believe we’re gonna call you Dominican from here on out.
*If you didn’t have a parakeet growing up, I really don’t know what to tell you.
I burning your kimchee!
No matter what evil the Chinese have perpetrated (and according to our OP, continue to wreak upon the planet), I just cannot hate a people who brung us dim sum.
Thanks for you reply.
But are you sure that many white people think negatively on Asians are not because of Chinese? Because there are many things that I can see similarities to Chinese people’s behavior ?
Yes, I’m sure. You yourself are an example of it.
I’m American born Korean and this thread has made me ashamed of that fact. Congratulations.
Oh, this is the Pit? Well, fuck. You’re also an asshole in addition to being a living, breathing Asian stereotype of the type you decry.
I can’t understand why you are annoyed unless you are Chinese.
Amen. Or fireworks. And pasta. Clocks, a compass, paper, the Grand Canal and kung fu movies.
Only the Indians have contributed more to world happiness. And that is just the Kama Sutra.
Which Korean city has the most promiscuity girls?
Well, we do all know what the Chinese did to our cokes.
Racism is bad, m’kay. Ass.
ETA: I should add my parents are the same kind of racists, too. I cut them a break because they sometimes act ashamed of it. That and they produced such a fine specimen of humanity as myself.
Comedy gold. “I can’t see why you’re annoyed by my racism unless you’re the group I’m being racist toward!”
It is true that a lot of Chinese people and Chinese culture embody the stereotypes that you make.
Japan and South Korea are richer and much more advanced in terms of technology and integration with the West. China is poorer, with a lot more people, so even their advances are tempered by the needs of 10 times more people than either Japan or Korea. When you compare a country that is lower on that index to one that is higher, then of course there will be shortcomings.
How do you balance the environment with over a billion people’s demands for energy for their use and products made in factories? When hundreds of millions of people still live in poverty, compared to hundreds of millions more in the middle class cities on the west coast, then you will have mass amounts of people who don’t give a crap about something like intellectual property. If a country is just poor, that is easier because they may not have the resources or audience for illegal DVDs. China has both people rich enough to mass produce it, and people poor enough to need it. I disagree that its a Chinese thing, something inherent within their culture, its more of an economic thing.
Even within your own culture, you admit that your artistic designs are looked upon lowly. Are you happy about that? Would you be happy if people said its because Japanese or Koreans don’t have an eye for art, that they are somehow deficient? If that hurts you, think of what you are saying about Chinese people based on meeting a few, when hundreds of millions of them are probably that way because they are simply poor.
And instead of staying in your own country, you abandon them to canoodle with the round-eyes of the West. Why live in Europe? Why not try to make Japan or Korea appreciate your art? Or maybe do better art that will be appreciated in your home country? You seem like a quitter, or someone who’s not good enough to make it at home so you leave it to find dumb people who think that you being Asian is some exotic fruit to be oooh’d and aaahh’d over. Get over yourself or get better, don’t blame genetics for your failings
You didn’t seem to get what I meant. Yes maybe I am racist but there is certain reason for it. I think Chinese people should change their behavior and some odd cultures. If they made a nice impression towards the world, I would never think in that racist way.
I have a life plan and its none of your business but I will definitely say I won’t stay in Europe for my whole life. I am staying here to learn more about the whole process of working environment and getting inspiration from various cultures. Oh! and Korean people aren’t that much interested in showing off arty things. I make money for people who want to show off their wealth and saying that white people are superior if you know what I mean.
Oh, I know. There’s always a good reason for racism, and it’s always the fault of the group being discriminated against! I’ve studied history.
Fuck, that made me laugh…
I want my country The Philippines to declare war on China.
Some are, some aren’t. How many Chinese people have you met? How many have you smelled?
Even better, Yum, you could say “Oh? You have a dog? I like dog very much. Especially fried.”
Yumm, you asked for our opinions and advice. In my opinion you’re a racist dolt who needs to learn English before attempting to post in English.
My advice to you Yummy - dummy.
I must have missed it, but other than your saying so, how are you not being racist?
Yours is like the textbook definition. By chance, do you also have a black friend?
So your problem is that they are generalizing an entire group of people.
Meanwhile, you have no problem with generalizing an entire group of people. :rolleyes:
This has to be a joke thread.
Anyway, I’m all for cracking on Chinese people. My fiance is Chinese, we’re in a mixed relationship, and we go back and forth all the time. But this thread is just silly and gets a 0.5/10.
