Ain't it sad! How an old Roman salute can become so preverted.
As long as no one is getting hurt, you have to accept people as they are. This is why imho, this is the greatest scene of Guy Ritchie's crimedy trilogy.

It's actually a full cycle of racism, which the government condones.No, but it does label you a Cultural Appropriator. Eat the food while wearing dreadlocks and you are also a racist
Racism #1. Customers who eat this Asian knock off food, and even go to lengths using pull apart cheap chopsticks they can barely hold, and thinking they are eating in China a tray of eggrolls and sweet and sour chicken, topped off by a fortune cookie. Add it up, and it's a bunch of non-Asians trying to take over Asian culture
Racism #2. Unauthentic Chinese food sold in food courts, often managed by Chinese people (Manchu Wok)..... so Chinese people not even being true to themselves and cooking real ethnic food. Racist to their own culture
Racism #3. Big corporations often own those fast food joints. And often run by White guys.... so telling the workers to make crap food that isn't authentic, and making them wear chop socky uniforms no Chinese person would wear overseas cooking food. Stereotyped image. Racist
Racism #4. Most of the people hired to work these places can barely speak English. You'd think with equal rights, these fast food counters would be staffed by white or black teenage highschoolers just as much as a broken english 50 year old lady. Racism to the extreme by purposely picking people who fit the "foreigner stereotype"
Racism #5. Big real estate developers own the mall and are their landlords. They condone it. So racism
Racism #6. Big corporations are taxed and must abide by government rules. The government condones all these chop socky "North Americanized Chinese Food" eateries as long as it passes health and safety checks and they pay their taxes like any other business. So they support racism
That's not racism, that's capitalism. Restaurants that serve watered down Asian food like Panda Express, Bourbon Street Grill (it's actually disguised Chinese food), Panda Express, Made In Japan and Mandarin exist to serve a particular clientele. I don't think people that frequent such places are so delusional to think that they are actually eating authentic Asian food.
Chinese people, when it has to do with earning a living, are very practical. One thing I learned about Chinese people is that, by and large, they don't have very many hang-ups. I've observed that most of the Chinese restaurants serving North American Chinese food, and the Chinese food franchises in malls are actually run by Chinese people. They know what us locals eat, and that's what they serve, because it brings in a living.
What they eat themselves will be real Chinese food, but they don't push their diets on us locals. They're not there to make a point.... only make money.
They generally are quite flattered when some of us show an interest in Chinese culture, and very impressed if you can say a few words in a Chinese language, or even put sentences together. China, being the largest(in population) country in the world, and a culture going back 5000 years, have the maturity to not feel threatened by other cultures, including so-called appropriation.
A couple of years ago, a North American Chinese food restaurant opened in Shanghai. They had to teach the local kitchen staff how to cook the food, as it was completely alien to them. Most of their patrons are local Chinese. Would that be appropriating North American culture? For Chinese people, Westeners adopting Chinese culture and dress means acceptance, and they are usually very happy about that.
Some people have too much time on their hands.
I agree. And that's why Asians seem pretty darn successful. You rarely see Asians getting caught up in racist cop/civilian fiascos, murders and bank robberies and any other dumb shit..... although when there's street race crashes..... got to admit.... there seems to be a half decent chance it's a Chinese guy racing. lol.
You rarely see Asians in the media aside from some token newscasters. There's hardly any Asian actors, athletes or musicians in western media/sports. Yet it doesn't seem that Chinese or Asian people in general really give a shit and prefer plugging away at school and jobs. I highly doubt very many westerners would work in a dirty restaurant scooping rice bowls and rudimentary tasks, but that old Chinese lady will do it. No doubt that's a shitty paid under the table job (there's no way she's getting a T4 slip at that job), but hey if it's a job to do and pays some cash, they'll do it.
I'll be the first to admit, I'd never do a job like that. And even if I was broke, I don't think I'd take a job that low to make a few bucks.
Nonsense, pull apart chop sticks are a Japanese product. The eating utensils of the middle/working classes. If you find tear away chopsticks in a Chinese eatery, don't eat there. They might be serving you Take Out Cat. What I learned from the Chinese - pay extra attention when parking in Pacific Mall!
I sent the second pic to my buddy Chun Sze, his reply: I want to fuck her! I shot back, what with your bun jiao jai? (sp)
Last time I visited Italy and went to Venice, the restaurants and shops were mostly owned and operated by Chinese. They did a pretty good job taking over. The food was very good. I think they mostly spoke Italian too. it was a little sad though to see such a take over.
The PRC has invested heavily in Italy, I never would have believed that both Milano soccer clubs would be owned by the Chinese. Internazionale is owned by Suning Commerce who also controls Amazon China.
If you went to Venice and didn't have the cicchetti, don't tell me!

I think the prayer hands was the offensive part not the dress itself. OR at least what some might have found offensive. It doesn't really bother me but I can see how some might find that offensive. I mean if they wore some sort of pochahontas dress and jumped around tomahawk chopping that'd be offside too.Latin gang signs and hootchie Buddhist prayer poses.
Just what's needed at a white prom.
I think it's hard to say for sure how many Asians work in media industry. Some may be working behind the scenes: camera techs, lighting, etc. etc. We also have Asian themed TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, musicians, athletes, etc.
Says nothing of the prayer hands, they're talking about the dress. Read the article.
Oh were you a guest at this year's Metropolitan Costume Institute Gala last night?I'm going to wear my new suit the next time I go see my ATF stripper.
I'll look cute too.

Entirely typical that a Chinese American man took offense while people in China saw it as a pretty young woman in an attractive traditional Chinese dress.
It's one thing to mock traditions of other cultures but quite another to dress one's self in the garb because it's beautiful and you want to look sexy. This is a clear case of the latter.
When social justice warriors condemn and push away ordinary people having innocent fun like this, they create a breeding ground for far-left and far-right extremism.

Sorry, we didn't get the directive from the motherland. We are all supposed to be alike.
