Great! Finally China can be as shallow and self-centered as the west. Can't wait to see chinese people posing with their friends "having fun" or pretending to eat sushi for that extra cultural and intellectual status.
- ryanmerket 13y agoYou know they already have social networks, right?
- MichaelTieso 13y ago"eating sushi"? - wrong country...
- kezz 13y agoEating sushi because it's not local, ie. exotic. Since facebook was introduced it's one of the ways to promote yourself and your supposed extraordinary lifestyle online.
- KMag 13y agoThe GP may have been pointing out that many people in China still have hard feelings over WWII atrocities. I have a Japanese friend who pretended to be Korean when she was living in Beijing because of the hostility she experienced. I think the most blatant hostility she experienced was when her cover was blown because her mother (who can only understand Japanese) called while she was in a cab. The cabbie heard my friend speaking Japanese, and because of that pulled over and made my friend get out.
- apostate 13y agoTake a trip to China and you will find just as much self-centered behavior as anywhere else, especially if you want to see the concepts of "standing in line" and "right-of-way" challenged.
