    Anyways, one would be a fool to have a discussion with inherently racist people of China more so the CCP paid 50 centers. Nazis 2.0.

    Hey, look! Indian racists that hate racists! Now I've seen everything! I guess it's only racism when other people do it to you and not when you do it to other people.

    I can't help it. I have to call people out for being hypocrites.

    I have to say, I peruse a lot of pro-Chinese forums, but I've never seen nearly as much racism on any of them as I have on this one forum alone. I'm not saying this to get under anyone's skin. I'm just sharing my observation.

    The racism is so bad here that some of the members here don't even think of foreign-born Chinese as citizens of the nation they were born, raised, and educated in. They can't see past the skin colour.

    I'm sure this goes without saying, but the most reasonable and least racist (often almost not at all racist) Indians I have ever known were all foreign-born, raised, and educated.

    I agree with the thought. But it does not translate into action. Most schools today are not for education. They mostly do brain washing. Its applicable in both China and India. It is even more applicable in the west as they invented the current system of education.

    Currently the schools promote only those type of students who may benefit the economy.

    If cleverness was the determinate for IQ, Chinese would register as brain-dead.

    It's not being patronizing to call someone out on their racism and hypocrisy. In fact, Armand2REP did a great job of showing how much of it there is here. It's not just the racism either. It's a complete ignorance or, at the very least, denial of what constitutes racism. If it's not racist to generalize an entire ethnic group as "brain dead", then you guys are living in the twilight zone.

    Please direct your attention to Exhibit A.

    Monkey see, monkey do. Not a far cry from what racist Americans/Europeans would historically say or think about Africans.

    I don't know how you were raised and educated, but I was never taught that racism is the appropriate response to racism. On the contrary, I was raised and educated to believe that doing so was precisely the worst kind of reaction to have. It only feeds the fire.

    In fact, I'll have you know that I've been bombarded with, even personally targeted, by this forum's racism since the first day I started posting and lurking here. It's really not even subtle at all. It's right there, out in the open for everyone to see.

    Your fellow Chinese.

    That was what i was hinting at, since racist tendencies are ingrained into the Chinese school of thought they find posts like those normal if coming from their own countrymen.

    You just proved my point. Now go run to the dictionary again.

    Oh! btw,

    Oh yes. I totally forgot. You must believe that racism is the correct way to respond to racism. I'm sure that doesn't feed the fire and propagate the behavior at all.

    Also, it's nice of you to clarify that the saying doesn't have racist origins. Unfortunately, it doesn't change the fact that it's racist to apply it to an entire ethnic group.

    If you really want to stamp out this problem of racism, you can start by dealing with people as individuals instead of classifying entire ethnic groups as having trait A, trait B, or trait C.

    It is sad to see what a LITTLE white man's saying causing so much racist exchange between people of two BIG countries. If the PISA result was not officially announced, why care?
