Discrimination against Foreigners in China

[Redline5]

Well actually no. Sammy T was spot on in his observation. The Chinese are racist as a population and the degree of that racism is in proportion to the colour of another's skin. Frequently on dating sites Chinese ladies will quite clearly state: 'no blacks'.

Do you know of any inter-racial marriage between a black and a Chinese?

Furthermore their racism tends to be covert as opposed to overt as in the example you gave.

I have a Chinese gf (I am caucasian) and she hates anyone with a skin colour which is not fair, but she will only admit this if she is pressed to offer an opinion.

The Chinese genuinely believe that they are the most superior race. I still love the Chinese though.

Actually truth be told, I know of 2 couples that are Asian / Black.

Glad Asians in America don't get targeted because of their race.

Oh wait. They ARE

Round eyes are targeted to be charged more.

Chinese do put a premium on skin color. Absolutely: "look (girl pulls down top) white!"

White best ergo converse black not-good

Asian students hunted down and pulled out of class and beaten, and the school looked the other way denying anything was racist.

I guess if everyone denies it, then it doesn't exist in America

No formal hate groups in China? Did you ever hear of The Boxers? They all wore red scarves to identify themselves as a group, and their sole goal was to kill all non-Chinese in the country. Granted, the foreigners had taken advantage of China for far too long, but this was truly a bloody period in China's history. One could argue that the KKK wear sheets to hide their faces because they are ashamed of their behavior, and do not want NORMAL Americans to know who they are. The Boxers wore red scarves because they were proud of their quest. China is so xenophobic that their greatest 'wonder' was a huge wall to keep all non-Chinese out!

In today's China there is no need for formal hate groups because the entire populous is racist. I have lived worked and lived in China for nearly 20 years and I have never met a single Chinese male who liked the Japanese, said "bygones should be bygones" about Taiwan, or had anything positive to say about anyone with dark skin (even Chinese with darker skin are looked down upon). The Chinese are racist against EVERYONE who is not Han Chinese. Beijinger do not like people for Xiangjian or Tibet. Even non-Han will not marry someone from outside their ethnic group.

American's racist past is truly an embracement, and the individuals in bed sheets are backwards hillbillies. On the other hand, America is the melting pot of the world. When I am in a shopping mall in Los Angeles I see people from every nationality shopping and living together. When I go to a shopping mall here in Beijing all I see are Chinese (and yes, I have been in Asia long enough to tell the subtle differences between the various ethnic groups).

Don't get me wrong – I love the Chinese people and their culture, but no matter how long I live in China, or how much I accept the culture, I will never be accepted as 'Chinese'. Even if I were to revoke my citizenship (which I would never do) I might be a curiosity, but not Chinese. The only way to be Chinese is to have Chinese parents. When someone is born in American, they become an American in every way. When someone moves to America and accepts citizenship, they are treated as citizens. Hell, most people living illegally in America are treated as citizens!

Sorry for the rant, but a Chinese calling America raist is like the pot calling the kettle black!

Are there actrive boxers in China now? NO! ARe their active white supremacists in the US now, YES!

During the time of the Boxer rebellion, European colonial powers were bring in opium to sell, and enforced it with armed forces.

Thats like the Chinese government saying hey, we're going to sell crack in America, and you can't do anything about it, cause will will crush your local forces with our army.

Unfortunately China's government and military was too weak to stop it.

If you want to open up the history books, lets not forget about the Nazi's or the early American settler's giveing away "free" blankets to the native Indians (smallpox included)

When was the last time you saw a foriener beaten because of his race in China?

I see all the time in the US.

Here's one story.

http://www.wsbtv.com/news/28002147/detail.html

And just 2 weeks ago, my friend was leaving someone's house after haviong dinner (now this is in NYC! Staten Island to be exact)

And as he was walking to his car which was a few blocks away.

I car pulls up and 4 whites guys start yelling slurs at Hi and calling his chink.

He ignore them, and they proceed to say, :"hey we're talint to you chink, don't walk away"

They get out and 1 or 2 were holding some club or metal bar.

Lucky for him my friend is a US Customs agent, yes, he's packing a. 45!

He identifies himself and pulls out his gun.

And the crackers jump in their car and drive away.

If he didn't have his gun with him, he obviously would've gotten a beating or killed!

Hmmm. When seen that in China.

So not's not the pot calling the kettle black

From all practical view Civil Right Act of 1965 had the major impact on asians in USA. Few limted asian quotes were approved prior to it.

American media & Govt better learn to be "nice to the Chinese" in the future to avoid situations for all Americans. Wikileak is not helping with the situation. Who in his mind in the State Dept would generate such a negative memo about world leaders. Limited private conversation reporting is something missing at the State Dept.

Perhaps a small reminder of The Chinese Exclusion Act was a United States federal law signed by Chester A. Arthur on May 8, 1882, following revisions made in 1880 to the Burlingame Treaty of 1868. Those revisions allowed the U.S. to suspend immigration, and Congress subsequently acted quickly to implement the suspension of Chinese immigration, a ban that was intended to last 10 years. This law was repealed by the Magnuson Act not until December 17, 1943.

If you talk to Chinese people who lived in Shanghai during the 30's and 40's they will tell you that there were signs in what is now The Bund that read 'No Dogs or Chinese allowed'. These memories created a attitude which has not totally been erased. Many Chinese have gone past this -- but not all. By some we are tolerated, no more. You can confirm this view of laowei or help change it. Up to you.

Looks like a sign I seen in a Bruce Lee movie called "The Chinese Connection" or "Fist of Fury" as it was called in Hong Kong.

Justy 2 cents

Racism in China is nothing like racism in the US and elsewhere there are no formal hate groups in China. No one dressed in white bed sheets will set up s burning cross in your front yard in the middle of the night.

With black folks in China, it is not what I like to call racism but profiling.

Majority of black customers are known in Asia for:
not paying hookers after sex
been extremely disrespectful
violent
see a hooker as a fulthy animal

Most of these guys come out of Africa, where too many of them treat their women like dirty animals. It is a "cultural phenomenon".

Interesting ranking!!

Who was doing the polling?

Was it an "American / Northern European White?"

For I would have thought that at the very top of the ranking, the overseas Chinese should be, and then the Hong Kong/Singapore/Malaysian Chinese BEFORE everyone else.

Far as I know, Chinese WG's are wary of Whites/Blacks precisely because of, as you mention, the size problem. Plus they don't much enjoy the periods of silence whilst doing it with guys who don't speak the lingo.

And let's NOT even get into discussions about different smell, hairiness, STD, kinkiness, demands, length of time required etc of foreigners that is perpetuated in the Chinese WG's world!!

SEAJ

I could imagine they adjust their top ranking to the person they are talking to.
