Wow, I was with you until this. I, for one, never even suspected your origin or nationality reading the blog post.
OK, re-reading it, there are a few hints (a Chinese proverb, your nickname, etc.). But nothing "obvious".
Probably not the explanation we are looking for here.
- huahaiy 5y agoNot my nickname, my name. It's good for you that you are not a racist (it's sad that such a normal thing has to be a compliment, but it is a compliment. Good for you.), but racists do look for these cues and make their judgement based on these. It's an unfortunate current state of affairs that we have to live with. Ignoring it does not make it going away though. If you don't like it, you got to call it out whenever you see it, which I hope you do, instead of being taken back by it, as you seems to be.
- huahaiy 5y agoBTW, you were with me? Where? Why do you have to use a throwaway account to say this, I am curious.
