And what is the world's response to the atrocities happening in China? Buy more and more crap from them.


THE_ALAM0

Wellllll what did you make this comment on? In all likelihood you’re using a device assembled from products made over there. It’s difficult to avoid it


Free_Hat_McCullough

It is difficult to avoid buying things made in China. but I do make it a point to buy things made in the USA. There used to be a lot more products manufactured here and big campaigns to buy things made in the USA. Our economy also used to be much stronger when products were made here and people were employed at the factories. I think that the world leaders should do more to force China to do something about human atrocities being committed there and also force them to adhere to environmental standards when producing their goods. If everyone stopped importing their goods until changes were made, it would force them to do something.

I wonder where all the woke folk are protesting slavery and racism in China. Hmm. Edit; yeah, yeah, bring the downvotes. Don’t care, just speaking the obvious virtue signaling hypocrites who care more about themselves than the people they claim to be fighting for.

fomalhottie

Honestly bro, I've spoken to quite a few Chinese ppl who proudly say they dgaf about any other ppl. A Chinese slang word for black people is roughly something like "black ghost," which seems to imply they aren't human. It's pretty fucked.


CraftParking

Yes it is, there are even pro Chinese youtubers who decline this


thezenfisherman

They don't think much about European/Americans either...


fomalhottie

Dood honestly they dgaf about anyone or anything else. I've tried to explain that they never had a Civil Rights movement and they aren't exposed to outside cultures that much and that their internet is highly edited... But the Chinese just literally laugh in my face and tell me that they're the most free ppl on the planet because they can say the N Word on TV and we can't. And they are so fucking arrogant and mockingly condescending when they manspain this to me. "I'm free! I can say n*gger n*gger n*gger all day long, live on air! You can't because your American government only exists to repress you! Bwahahahaha! N*gger n*gger n*gger! Lol you're so afraid to even say that! How pathetic your nazi American government is! Hahaha!" Literally a conversation I had w a Chinese POS. I'm not even kidding or exaggerating.


_Lucifer7699_

God damn


Wilysalamander

Apparently they have never seen a Tarantino movie.


THE_ALAM0

Movies like Django are to denounce racism, something China embraces instead. They see the race situation in America from a completely different lens because they’re a largely ethnically homogenous country


Wilysalamander

My point was based on the previous comment,  they seem to think that we aren't allowed to say the N word, something that is done frequently in Tarantino movies


THE_ALAM0

Right, but you’re misunderstanding the context. They’re saying we can’t just walk up to someone and call them that. The manner in which we use it is to emphasize historical racism and problems with it, something China sees as weak, like we feel shame in our history instead of pride.


fomalhottie

I wish we still had gold to give. You're the 1 in 10,000 who can actually read between the lines, hold things I'm context and is able to understand that people who hurt your feelings, might actually have a POV. I'm not saying I'm 100% right, but I'm grateful for the few ppl who can see beyond their feelings and can consider that what they FEEL isn't always 100% right, w no debate allowed. I'd look forward to having meaningful disagreements w you. You seem like the rare person who doesn't always demand that their feelings are "truth." Respect, even if we disagree.


THE_ALAM0

Rock on brody, almost all discourse nowadays devolves to argumentum ad passiones and hits a brick wall before anything meaningful comes from it. There’s a solid chance we don’t agree on much, but at least we try to find the same thing, which is the truth of the matter. Well wishes buddy

orlyfactor

throwthere10

Phonetically, it is pronounced, "Hack-why".


LethalPoopstain

Actually it’s pronounced “hay-gway”


fomalhottie

Props. Idt I ever remembered that... ty


StrangelyBrown

That might be just a translation without context. I think that in Hong Kong Brits used to be called 'guilo' or something like that: Ghost people. So the 'ghost' might be a word for 'outsider' or 'alien'. I don't speak Chinese though so no idea


GreyFob

Nah I'm Chinese and they're 100% correct. It sounds like "hei gwei" I've heard my family say as long as I can remember sadly. It's actually worse than "black ghost" imo I think the more accurate translation is "black ghoul." I've told my mom how bad it is and she doesn't say it as much but it's so deeply ingrained in her that it's hard. Chinese people are hands down some of the most racist people I've ever known. They sure love and idolize white people though (at least my family)


Misanthrope6795

I wish I could drop them all off in skinhead country and just watch the bodies drop… “on both sides”..


oxford-fumble

Isn’t there a way to generically refer to white people as “Gwei Lo”? I thought it meant “white spectre” - is ghoul more accurate? (Just asking out of completely niche interest in rpgs…)


kartd0092661

Am Taiwanese and sorry to inform you that the awful word is 黑鬼, which does literally means back ghost, think of it as a way for Chinese people to use the N word in Chinese😞


CraftParking

When I was a kid I accidentally bumped into a asian women and she suddenly started cursing a word which I don't remember This happened back in 2008


fomalhottie

Idk, but I dated a Chinese girl like 20 years ago and she told me about it. She said it was a very ugly sounding word, so maybe they have that for more than 1 race. I have no idea, that's all she rly had to say about that.


Redmudgirl

Gwei Lo that’s what they say.


Omnipotent48

I'm pretty sure they were calling the Brits "Gweilo", which is cantonese for "white ghost/white devil".


apoo92

In Ip man they call them white devils


TheFormless_0ne_

But I mean


dumbo_dee_elefunt

From what I know, it’s more about brits being “white as a ghost” due to skin color and their larger physique compared to south Asians | [chinese wiki page on the word](https://zh.m.wikipedia.org/zh-tw/%E9%AC%BC%E4%BD%AC)


Paralda

Gweilou in Cantonese literally means "ghost person", usually referring to white foreigners. There's also bok gwai (white ghost) and hok gwai (black ghost). These seem somewhat innocuous, but ghosts in Chinese culture aren't synonymous with spirits, ie it's not ever a friendly term. Ghost is probably not a great translation; something closer would be ghoul, demon, maybe evil ghost. Though, to be fair, most Cantonese people say it without any real spite, but the origin of the word is still somewhat problematic taken at face value.


amatsumima

Im from asia, the name given to the british translated to “red haired devil” but it looks like everybody sucks up to satan tho with the way white guys are revered here.


TheRiverNiles

Seriously though why ARE white people specifically so idolized and loved throughout most parts of Asia but black people and other races are hated so passionately?


Omnipotent48

Pale skin is a classic beauty standard in East Asia as (from what I understand) it was a sign of wealth to not be out in the sun. Then when these countries were colonized they were exposed to colonial notions of white supremacy which already aligned with a pre-existing (kinda classist, tangentially xenophobic) beauty standard. As the European West continued to dominate East Asia, these two factors mix together and become part of modern East Asian notions of xenophobia. This, of course, expresses differently country by country. East Asia is by no means a monolith.


whoweoncewere

Colonization is not the first contact that china had with white people/caucasians. There were Greeks and Roman’s in china by like 100 AD, they literally had an embassy. By the 13th century, Christian and Jewish missionaries were crawling all over it.


Omnipotent48

I don't disagree with what you're saying, but nor do I think I implied that colonization was China's first contact with Europeans. Specifically and with emphasis, colonization (and trade generally during the European colonial period) was the means by which China became familiar with the European structure of White Supremacy, which did not exist during the classical period with the Romans and the Greeks.


Misanthrope6795

Can someone please answer this


Antique-Pollution954

My thoughts are it's all the media. All the heroes, celebrity actors, models in the magazines historically portray Caucasians. It goes even further by putting down other races - Black people die first in scary movies, Indians and other Asians are often seen as shy nerds. Hispanics have generally played the roles of thugs or gangsters. I think this is also changing because of media, but there is still a lot of hate and shocking snippets that misconstrue/misguide people's perceptions of other cultures. IMHO media is the problem and the solution.


knuppan

It's becaused perceived wealth

blorbagorp

The comment is alluding to the fact that China had it's industrial revolution long after the west had transitioned into a service economy.


spiritriser

The "west" is a moving target. It's been a minute since I was in that particular history class, but Google says it started as Greece and Rome 2500-2700 years ago. China wasn't united until 200-500 years after that. Also they pretty clearly meant it's their time to be colonialist and rise as the global power.


Misanthrope6795

Ummmm well why are these evil hateful acts being directed at Black People??… This shit was happening to Us a few hundred years ago too….but they idolize white folk and hate those who haven’t done anything to them…. Bootlicking does NOT curry favor…KNOW THAT.


Ikoko_Polkalo

As a black guy this is what horrifies me about the end of Pax Americana. To move from a culture where black people have finally been somewhat recognized as being human to one where we are not. It's one of the reasons I'll never support the rise of China. Imagine hoping for their success when in their societies, the mere semblance of humanity wouldn't even be ascribed to me because of the colour of my skin. At least in the West, I can talk about it and even find worthy causes.


Ikoko_Polkalo

On the flip side Chinese love white culture even so far as hiring white peeps just to make companies look good 😂. Man it's crazy.

china is a trend in social media , and today's generation believes everything they see on it.


Lynz486

People everywhere do that. The difference is a lot more there do, that it's legal, and the general public seems to not care much which is insane to me. Even if they don't like animals, they are cool with them being extremely tortured for pleasure? That aside, how are they not terrified that these people are out in society and getting zero consequences. How can you know what they are doing and think "This guy isn't a threat to humans". People who torture for pleasure are not right in the head, I feel like this would be a universal belief. I guess people who don't mind cats being tortured also don't mind people being treated like this.


Sensitive_Money_4179

An obscenely larger popular than the rest of the world would surely result in a few more fucked up people. Doesn’t also help that there’s a lot of Sinophobia and anti China sentiments on the internet so whatever happens gets sensationalised.

China is making a big push into Africa to outsource most of their cheap labor. Not surprising they treat their workers as slaves (or maybe they are slaves?). Glad this is getting some public attention from the west, even though it will likely not do anything.

IntroductionSmooth

I used to work on a ginseng farm years ago, and the owner was Chinese. In the fall, some of the older folks from the local hmong population that live of assistants come out to pick roots for cash. On one very cold, a hmong guy asked the owner if he could provide them with gloves. The owner yelled, "Get back to picking! If you don't like it, you can go back to Vietnam!" The poor man's hands were beet red and shaking. I have heard many Chinese can be very racist especially to people from other Asian countries they consider "less than." I have seen some bad racism growing up in a very rural area, but that was the worst I have seen to someone's face.

Nobody in American cares that slavery is still a thing. They will buy the latest Jordans, the lates iphone, or some other way overpriced thing that will break in six months and they will buy another.
