It's actually quite sickening to see this ignorance manifest itself like this. I'm not one of those idiots that says, "I don't see colour!", but I treat everyone the same. Everyone should. Shame we let disinformation divide us so.
Good that a Hong Kong brother is verifying this. Especially a breh who has and can move between both worlds easily. We are not just making this shyte up.
a thread about a poster slandering black folks is now about Chinese people and how great china isidk why I expected anything different
When I was a kid, all I knew about Mexico was Tequila, donkey sex shows (I still don't know if they're real or notI just asked her what about Mexico...she said "Drugs"
), burritos, tacos and ponchos. Oh and white people killing them and stealing California. Can't help but be ignorant to something way around the world sometimes 
fukk yeah breh. Communist party the greatest!!!1111!!!1111a thread about a poster slandering black folks is now about Chinese people and how great china is
What race did you think they were tho?When I was a kid, all I knew about Mexico was Tequila, donkey sex shows (I still don't know if they're real or not
GTA San Andreas was my first exposure to Mexicans
Latinos
Latino isn't a race tho......
That's the thing
sorry breh but its so miniscule its literally a drop in the lake. literally. most chinese folks havent even spoken to a westerner because westerners in china dont speak chinese. you might get some rich snobby kids that heard from their friends that went abroad or studied abroad but seriously? thats like the 1%, its almost like sayin us folks who have actually been to china can shape the way the american people view china as a nonthreat military. damn near impossible.
most of the ignorance comes from THEIR OWN media (which hardly covers intl news for obv reasons). but if it does, its usually about africa being poor and war torn...which it is.
but when you ask about actual AAs? most will say 'I dont know" or "they sing good" or "basketball".
here's a conversation I just had with my gf (btw, im the only black american she has ever met or even spoken too)
Me: Hey Im having a discussion online, I want to ask you something
Her: Yes?
Me: do you know what stereotype means? (proceeds to google the chinese translation)
Her: ting bu dong (chinese for I dont understand)
Me: *enters preconception, gets chinese translation*
Her: Ah yes, what about it?
Me: I'm going to give a country, and I want you to give me a one word preconception common among your average chinese
Her: Ok.
Me: Congo
Her: Poor
Me: Rwanda
Her: War
Me: France
Her: Romantic
Me: America
Her: Arrogant
Me: All Americans?
Her: Yes
Me: Hmmm ok, Black Americans
Her: Cool
Me: wtf?
Her: Yea! like Rappers!
Me:
She literally has nothing. nothing at all, when I told her american, she said arrogant, when I specified by skin color, she literally could only think of what she may have saw on tv.
The chinese are more about nationality than they are race. race is a bit of a hard concept for them to swallow because its 99% hans. For example when I ask her what race are mexicans....she draws a blank as if she never thought of it, then says red people? then I bring to her attention they speak spanish, so then she looks at me with a blank and says spanish people? she literally has no idea what a mestizo is, when I say we call them brown, she says "no you're brown, theyre a little bit more white".
when I ask her if she knows about the colonization and mixing of the natives, she says yes, so I ask her again, what are they? she responds "a little brown". :mjlolz:
nope, Im the 3rd. She was with a canadian and persian before me. Im not the first black person shes known, the persian dude had a friend Ben from Ghana, super cool at, I mean one of the friendliest happiest cats out here. He had a party last week and it was huge, had chinese, europeans, africans, muslims everybody was at that shyt. I had to work tho.
this is what I mean. IN china, its chinese vs foreigners, not so much race. its more about nationality.
I did, thats why she answered that way, nikka I dont think Im cool like a rapper, that was literally left field because Im more of a chilled out clean cut cat
She didnt separate them, I did. Thats the thing, here in China, I am American before Black. They differentiate me from Africans, this is how I know its not racial. Soon as they hear Im american, they think $. but if I say african, they think poor and war, yet my skin hasnt changed. If I say British, they think prestige, but if I say Russian, they think drunks and aggressive.
Americans are americans. even chinese americans are viewed as american before Chinese. they call them ABC here. They literally have a totally different stereotype for chinese americans.....
That was my main man @jadillac with the ashy ass thumbanyone remember that thread from SOHH when dude said "look what I found cleaning my basement" and it was the CD Life After Death and people were talking about his thumb was so ashy it looked like Life After Death
this thread reminds me of that
That was my main man @jadillac with the ashy ass thumb
Folks where saying his thumb resembled a salted sunflower seed
I was tasked to lead a small expedition to get him the fukk outta there and abandon the thread, but alas, we few were beaten back. The wolves had their way with him that day
