    Normalizing talking positively about China is honestly one of the important things that we can do right now.

      My friend’s girlfriend is Chinese and when I first met her we talked about China for a bit and she later told him that she wasn’t used to people talking positively about China. He told me she sometimes lies about her ethnicity to avoid people being racist. made me want to punch a wall

        My sister can pass for Japanese. She doesn’t dissuade people from thinking this, as natives are not well loved where she lives. It’s a hellhole.

        (She also has taken a sharp turn towards fascism, and claims there’s no racism there while simultaneously doing this… But that’s another story).
