No. I am less worried about anti USA sentiment in China. Have you seen any LaoWai yelled at or punched up in China? Some Americans really took actions on Chinese here

It depends on how you define racist but for sure people in China and most of East Asia think black people are dirty and stupid. That’s not arguable to anyone who knows the region. I mean, they think white people are dumb, uncultured, and Easy marks. That said, what happened at

I’m not excusing this behavior from Chinese (or anyone) but it’s a lot easier to be “racist” in a homogenous country and if you travel abroad you will notice that America is one of the least “racist” countries in the world.

I feel you, but at the same time I wouldn’t be surprised if there was big community transmission amongst chinas black population and China, without compunction for fear of being accused of being racist, just decided to quarantine blacks. It’s not racist sentiment here necessarily

Our news is trash too. Just in a different way. Wild Wild West is apt.
