Reverse racism in China and to a less extent Japan. Only really exists for white people. Better pay and more attention just for being white but it get old really quick. I’ve actually found that it’s city people who are more annoying about it. When I got to the countryside I find them more kind. With all the things wrong with America, I am thankful for it not being an ethnostate.
That's just called racism.
And from what I hear it's not exclusive to white people. Friends have told me they're racist against black people too.
Well, many Chinese and Japanese plainly consider all non-Asians (and many Asians) savages. Racism is normalized there. Hierarchical centralized clan-based societies and thus certain lack of agility in social ties and traditions.
I mean, they are not much more racist that Middle-Eastern people. Just the Middle-East is (I know this may sound funny) socially more progressive in many places.
It’s it really reverse racism when the majority is shitting on the racial minority?
Is “reverse racism” ever a thing anywhere anyway? Racism is racism.
Honestly, my alarm bells start going off when people use that phrase.
Correct. Racism is racism. That said, it’s usually meant to call out situations where a minority group shitting on a majority group, which is not what is happening here.
This is humanity’s old classic - the majority shitting on the minority.
Same here, I'm hoping it's just ignorance.
I'd call it reverse racism cuz the majority is actually upholding a minority. In china they literally hire Caucasian people to "look good" (whatever that means)
Just like in Russia nobles would hire French and German servants to look good. Like an expensive horse.
Isn't racism just discriminating against people because of their race? I don't majority/minority makes a difference for the definition.
Fair thinking, but I think "reverse racism" gets you understood better but that might be only me
