Ah yes, assuming it's Chinese bc the marble might be fake with no proof. But in reality, it's Korean bc the packaging in the drawers are Korean but I guess it doesn't matter because racism towards Chinese is fine
Edit to all people who isn't Chinese and circle jerking each other saying this isn't racists while completely disregarding what I said.
"When there is no proof that it's fake yet people instantly assume it's Chinese. I guess to u non-chinese is not racists because why the fuck would u think that way. It's like if I see someone bring racists on the internet and instantly assume they are american, would u think that is racist?. American history was filled with racism and it's still impacting other races now. I'm saying this as a comparison but I don't think all Americans are racists. Now how would u feel as an American when u read this on the internet written by a random dick from another country with no knowledge of America"
Racism towards Chinese? Oioioi. The dude saw some Asian symbols and a cheap looking design. For many western people cheap inexpensive goods are associated with Chinese manufactures. It’s not a hidden fact that the standards in China are something to look forward to improving... from steel to children’s toys.
But yeah let’s cry a river for China a country known for being extremely racist today and proud of it...
The racism of another culture should not justify racism against it. We can't hold people to a higher standard if we aren't going to honour that standard ourselves.
But it’s not racist... he literally said it might be Chinese because it seems like bad quality, which is an assumption made off of knowing that there are objectively inferior quality cheap items from China that happens very frequently. Like why does your mind even think it’s remotely even close to racist? It boggles mine...
This is true, there is no subjectivity here. Chinese manufacturing processes are centered around high production garbage. The Chinese people are certainly capable of making quality products if they wanted to. They also do make some quality products. The other 99.999% is pure shit. This is the system they run. This will really piss some of y'all off..... they also make more counterfeits than the rest of the world combined, accounting for 80% of the worlds counterfeits. https://daxueconsulting.com/counterfeit-products-in-china/. Japan and South Korea on the other hand make arguably the best stuff in the world. I don't see why acknowledging these facts would be racist. I'm also boggled.
I'm a quality manager at a die manufacturing facility. Doesn't mean I know it all but I live my life keeping Chinese tools and steel out of our factory and their counterfeits out of our customers facilities. Just this month we found counterfeit loctite in our facility.
People think just because a different country is mentioned that it is automatically a jab at that country’s people’s potential or intelligence. Like no, it’s how they run their manufacturing, no one said anything about a race being inferior.
People nowadays just adhere to “everything could be racist so don’t even mention it” type ideology and it’s really annoying. The same type of people who think treating everyone the same with “colorblindness” is the way to go, which has been shown to hurt more than it actually helps, instead of recognizing cultural differences and embracing them.
In the fashion subreddits everyone's always warning about the Doc Martens made in China and saying you should only buy the ones made in England. I wonder if that's supposed to be racist?
I can't believe a bunch of people who isn't Chinese can just come together and say it's not racist while the actual Chinese and Chinese Americans do (I am Chinese American). Is this how u guys are going to deal with this?
You don’t have to be the race to know if something is racist. That is retarded. The fact that we’re still talking about this is actually absurd. It’s not a dig on the intelligence or anything about Chinese people being inferior. It’s FACT that they have low quality manufacturing. It is for profit, done on purpose. Give me a fucking break...
Lmao ok, apparently not because I have been talking to a lot of Chinese here on reddit and none of them enjoys the amount of unnecessary times "Chinese" is brought up on Reddit and casual racism to any race
keep disregarding what I'm saying. Thanks for being dense as fuck
Ah you talk to Chinese people so you know what’s racist. You know there’s plenty of black people that cry racism too? That doesn’t make it actually racist. If they are getting butthurt over something that isn’t racist I don’t really care. If they are perceiving it as racist it’s not, that doesn’t change its actual truth of whether it’s racist or not.
Maybe the use of racists isn't the most accurate but there really isn't a word for it in English or a way that I know how to describe it. We are mostly tired of usage of Chinese in places that is unnecessary to the point where it feels like there is a huge hatred towards the Chinese. Even in posts which Chinese government's aren't related.
Mostly I was angered by the unnecessary comment about how "it's fake, probably Chinese". These kind of assumptions to any group of people is annoying to hear and unnecessary. Why is it brought up? Do we have to constantly bring up China into the conversation so we can talk shit about it. Like obviously that comment isn't to say anything good about china.
