Had to take a space out after the date.

African nationals in a city in China are being kicked out on the street for no reason. Restaurants are refusing to serve them. And police are monitoring them even after they test negative for corona. Despite the fact many of these African people have lived in that city for years.

Much worse treatment than the random assholes attacking asians in the US. This is the actual police and business owners systematically discriminating against black people while blaming them for corona. Also in related news, African nations have imposed a temporary ban on foreign nationals. Anyone wana call them racist like they did to Trump?

asians can be as bad as trump?

WHO WOULD HAVE GUESsssssssSED

Not just 'African Nationals'. I've heard even 'people of African descent' are at least getting refused service in restaurants.

All this racism over corona is getting out of hand. Ive seen dozens of stories about asians getting harassed, beaten, and having acid thrown on them (at least 10 of these vids ive seen feature gangs in urban areas jumping 1 person) and now this.

Just stop.

B-b-b-but only white people are racist!

Are we pretending the whole world isn't racist towards Africa?
Did you not see those French researchers that wanted to use Africa for their COVID vaccine tests?

It's not. Racisim is china has been a massive issue. Place is stupid prejudiced.

Asians are often overtly racist.

You can't talk about it on gfaqs though, mainly due to weebs. Don't see many cheebs though.

---

It's sad but the reality is black people are at the bottom of the social pole in every country and especially minority countries.

I'm not the least bit surprised by this it's terrible and cases like this exist throughout the world.

china has an awful government/leadership even worse than the trump admin which is saying a tremendous amount

Heard this a few days ago as well. Racism is everywhere of course, but not too surprised considering how homogeneous China and a lot of non western countries are. Unfortunately Africans get it the worst.

---

I totally believe this.
I've seen firsthand, how disgustingly racist some of those folks can be against blacks. They treat them like dogs.

Homogeneity. The reason why western white nerds love Japan. Maybe.

You'll certainly see a lot of 'racist to Japan' comments in threads about anime, lolis, or weebery.

You will also get Reported into the floor.

So the motivation for posting this wasnt to cast light on it, but to defend Trump. Nice.

That said, the travel ban is not a reason to call him racist.

Honestly I figured calling people that attended a rally organized by Jason Kessler and Richard Spencer "good people" was enough.

As an arab, I can tell you that I've seen TONS of arabs be racist towards other minorities (especially black people). I don't know why people like to pretend racism solely comes from white people, but it doesn't.

Agreed. People from all cultures are racist for sure

The US Embassy in China released a statement to african Americans over there telling them to basically watch their was over shit like this.

Black status is rising and will continue to rise imo. You see this everywhere in the US for example, black people and culture are widely emulated and considered cool. From music, beloved actors and entertainers, athletes, to everyday people like military men, politicians, working professionals. Their star is rising and its deserved. Plus many women love black men, and many men love thicc black women, thats a nice bonus.

Yea theyre shit. I will make a topic about their predatory loan system and trades to build infrastructure in Africa using chinese nationals sometime. Double dipping. Theyre ripping off Greece too.

Nah, DJT is a blurb at the end. Pointing out he is not the only one trying to impose bans but he got a lot of undeserved shit that endangered actual lives. Im raising awareness.

Fair.

So in the U.S. if youre Chinese you may get attacked by black people and in China if youre black you may lose your home, job, & get kicked out of the neighborhood.

Racism is its own virus that flourishes under a pandemic.

What is with conservatives and trying to deflect the criticism against them onto Asian countries?

Who is deflecting? Im making a topic for discussion citing real life issues. Thats what this board is for. Even if i were doing what you say, the ratio of anti US topics to those critical of China is very unbalanced, not sorry if i tip the scale a little.

A lot of people like black entertainers, athletes, our music, take elements from our various cultures etc but that has never stopped anti-black racism and sentiment, same with dating/marrying a black person.

Black Marines I've known have told me about this shit in Okinawa and S. Korea

And yet the Democrats (and rest of the world) are perfectly fine kissing China's ass while pretending Taiwan is a part of China.

Trump's stance on the one-China issue is probably the only reason why I respect him.

A place of predominantly English speakers, especially Americans, focusing on what happens in America?

Blowing my mind over here.

The Democrats are traitors to the Taiwanese people, sold out the American Workers by sending manufacturing base to China, and Clinton along with Diane Feinstein lobbied to get China into the WTO. And now we have a bigger problem with them stealing our IP and selling counter feit goods and bankrupting many US businesses along the way.

Now China's Belt & Road initiative is doing Debt Trap diplomacy everywhere they can get their hands into.

Yep. I wish people could acknowledge and accept this so we can move forward in figuring out how to solve it.

I agree but it will continue to get better. You will see more and more black people in the highest and all positions of society. Eradicating racism would be like eradicating sickness, it will always exist you just need to fight it how you can. Look how far weve come, Tupac said there wouldnt be a black president in the 90s. Now Obama is beloved and even right wingers liked Colin Powell in the early 2000s and tried to get him to run. Herman Cain was killing it until his mistress cucked him, and Ben Carson in 2016.

You could proly cite envy as the root of much modern white racism (***and other races, ive known latinos and native americans like this)towards blacks as well. Back when I believe it was more the sense of racial superiority, thats been flipped on its head. I think some asians feel more culturally superior to blacks like whites used to. They see them as second class citizens. I would be amazed to see significant political black leadership in China for example. But i am also talking out of my ass, maybe it exists. Im saying could you imagine a black Chairman in China?

I see posters defend China frequently on different subjects. Im talking about an international issue, if people dont care they dont have to post itt.

As long as the CCP is in power, nobody who isn't born in China and isn't of Han-Chinese heritage will gain any significant power.

I have no issue with calling out China for its well documented racism. What I do take issue with is using that as some sort of response to racism against Chinese people or Asian people in general. Which is precisely what you are trying to downplay when you make comments like: "Much worse treatment than the random assholes attacking asians in the US." As though to imply it's not worth discussing or is somehow less racist.

Thats fair. I didnt mean to say its not worth discussing or is less than, but i see how that looks like im downplaying it. And this topic did have those motivations of painting a bigger picture than the incessant harping on how shitty and racist America is. I was trying to compare actual government and systemic discrimination to random racist asshole citizens who cant be controlled.

is this supposed to be news? Chinese, Japanese, etc, all highly xenophobic and especially racist towards black people

i know this is a shocker to a lot of you but its possible to care about more than one thing at once, and the racism against the Chinese in America right now is a big issue

You generalized "all" asians (chinese Japanese etc) as being xenophobic and racist towards blacks. Thats not true.

Who said you can only care about one thing at a time? Neither of your first two statements make sense. As to your last point, if you read up on a majority of hate crimes against asians in the US, most of it is verbal attacks, racist words, stares, some people have been spit on, and a small minority have been physically assaulted. And in the US most of the violent attacks have made the news and disgusted average people.

Blacks in China are being denied services in businesses, evicted from their homes, forced house arrest while ethnic Chinese walk freely, some forced to sleep on the streets, starving. Harassed by police. Now both sides have ignorant racism involved but it is obvious to an open mind who is worse and both deserve to be talked about.

Holy Shit.

That's insane.
