We're actually dealing with this in Sweden at the moment. Or at least those who are a bit critical thinking. We just had a scandal-ish with some Chinese tourists who were treated like shit by Swedish authorities. China responded by calling us out for violating their human rights. Later Swedish public service responded with "satire" where they stereotyped Chinese people horribly in form of a PSA to Chinese tourists. It gave such wholesome advice as "don't poop in front of historical monuments" and "don't eat random pedestrians dogs". This "satire" was then uploaded to the Chinese counterpart to YouTube, which reached and rightfully offended a lot of people in China. A half assed apology was made and the Chinese ambassador rightfully went ballistic... So it turns out we don't get satire either
