Living in China

Oh, this is a gas! I've known about Men Without Hats for ages (because of their trademark hit, 'The Safety Dance,' but never knew until today, that they recorded this song.  With snappy lyrics like, "What did the Chairman want?  A great big wall they could all watch Occidentals on," how can anyone possibly go wrong?

But... is it a "racist" song?  Oh my!  I sincerely doubt that, all you hypocritical, race mongering, guilt tripping bastards out there.  Just waiting to pounce, aren't we?  The modern INQUISITION is the constant, wholly undemocratic threat that people live under, that they will be ruined in society for being labeled "racist."  It's the 21st century equivalent of the Scarlet Letter.

But seriously, you should hear what people in China say in their own language(s) about white AND black folks.  They don't even have much nice to say about other yellow people!  If anything, they're actually much harder on their Japanese, Taiwanese and Korean counterparts in the region than they are on other "foreign devils."  Especially the Japanese.  They REALLY hate them, of course.

And most Chinese don't mean most of it maliciously, in fact.  It's just how they refer to people outside their "middle country" borders.  Either way, the word "racism" is a relatively recent addition to the English language, and believe me, very few people around the world that us extra careful Western folks bend over backwards to not offend, are actually doing much to pay us the same respect in return.  And true to freedom deprived, communist style, imperialistic form, they don't even have the luxury of being able to vote Republican OR Democrat!  So chew on that for a while, why don't ya?

But don't just take my word for it.  If you're not already familiar with the YouTube channel, China Uncensored, have a look at the following highly informative video.  Just remember though, that those "demonic" Japanese deserve every bit of the seven decades (and counting) of outright slander that they continue (as an entire "race") to endure.  Well... don't they?  Ah, hate!  Use it or abuse it, I guess....
