Nationalist comments, not racist.
- IfOnlyYouKnew 7y agoSee, that's the problem: "nationalism" is more about considering one's nation superior, which "racism" is about considering some other race/ethnicity/nationality inferior. As anyone willing to read the first paragraph on Wikipedia knows, "racism" includes ethnicity-based discrimination as well. But people will pretend not to know, meaning there really isn't a generally-accepted word for this concept. How convenient.
- decebalus1 7y agoChina has 56 ethnic groups. When you say something bad about China, you're talking about the nation. So if you want to play a card, it's either the nationalism or xenophobia card, but not the race card.
