    Racism is where you blatantly paint an entire race pejoratively, spreading factually false stereotypes just because of their race.

      It’s nothing to do with race and everything to do with ideology. I have close friends whose parents survived the cultural revolution. They would tell you the same thing.

          Nope. I’m not racist, and fuck you for even suggesting it!

          You’re doing the same shit people do to defend the government of Israel! Accusing anyone who criticizes the country of being an anti-Semite.

            You are not criticizing the county, you are typecasting and criticizing the people of that country. And you are criticizing them because they are Chinese. Your comment was aimed at all Chinese citizens in China, typecasting them as all behaving in the same derogatory fashion, because they are Chinese. You obviously consider all Chinese citizens in China as inhumane murderers who put their own interests above the sanctity of a human life. Really? Every person in China would kill an innocent victim by running over them again and again to make sure they are dead? Exactly what is that supposed to say about a Chinese person? Your comment was nothing more than a typical racist joke. Does your racist ‘joke’ have anything to do with your display moniker?

            Yes I would also call someone an anti-Semite who says ‘All Jews want to exterminate the Palestinians just because Jews hate Palestinians’ just as I would call an Israeli or anyone else racist for saying ‘The only good Palestinian is a dead Palestinian’.

              You ought to educate yourself on the difference between the general and the universal. A society can have serious ideological, legal, and social problems without those issues reflecting on the people or their culture.

              I think this is too sophisticated an argument for someone like you, though, so I won’t waste any further time on you. You think everything in black and white terms, ready to pounce on anyone you think is the other team. Good day!

                if someone hits you with their car by accident, they’ll stop and run you over to finish you off,

                That is a deliberate condemnation of the Chinese peoples themselves. That is not an ideological statement, that is a statement clearly portraying the Chinese as homicidal maniacs who have no more moral scruples but to ‘finish you off’ for their own gain if you were hurt. It is a targeted racist ‘joke’. That is not ‘too sophisticated’. it is blatant.
