That's another one bunbun, my number was actually saved through my ex gf's friend under the name bunbun lol

Bunbun = the last character of Philippines in Chinese. Fay Loot Bun. It was not intended to be offensive word. I do find Fay Yung (Philippines Maid, official name HK govt to name these helpers) makes them lower class than bunbun, imo

The word gwei in gweilo means foreign invaders in China back in 19th century. We called Japanese gwei as well. It does not mean you are a ghost from hell.

My white frds and colleagues in Hk all call themselves gweilo, only find offensive if people say sei gweilo.

No Worries, just let her know: "in dog fights and sex, it's not the size of dog that matters, it's the size of the fight in the dog"

the most ironic stereotype I find is the driving one, people associate poor driving with something that seems to be inherently chinese, like there is some measurable intrinsic genetic link that chinese people are born with that makes them poor drivers

most people that make these general assumptions have never even set foot in china where the average driver has hyper awareness and road navigating dexterity - as a baseline to not crash let alone get from point a to b

if you give a bunch of house wives and old people +300hp cars with a N sticker - that is a receipe for disaster regardless of their ethnicity

the # of skilled drivers in china probably engulf the entire population of north america

This is truth. however ignorance prevail especially in small town mindset places such as Vancouver. Driving in Vancouver is too oversimplified and straightforward. so that tends to "dumb down" the average drivers here in vancouver. I always find driving in Richmond very safe and according to ICBC data, Richmond has one of the lowest car accident rate per capita.
Stubborn locals sees one unexpected maneuver and then generalize all chinese as bad drivers is placing prejudice against Chinese. It is an act of modern day racism that's very much tolerated by mainstream. and This is wrong.

Firstly I very much disagree with your classification of ethnic Chinese. There is only one China. I encourage all to stop placing words such as "mainland" prior to China. China is one. One China. Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, Taiwan, a majority of South China Sea islands are all part of China.

Hong Kong people are 100% Chinese. 90% of Taiwan is also Chinese. We are all descendants of Yan and Huang, this is in our blood. We are descendants of Huaxia civilization. One of the oldest great civilizations thats thriving for 6000 years. We are deeply influenced by Confucian ideology. We are cultured, we are mannered, and we are definitely highly educated.

Our civilization has been subject to invaders and intruders since beginning. The Great Wall was built to protect us from northern nomadics and barbarics, but not to invade. All we want is harmony and stable society. We differentiate ourselves from the barbarians.

China is not rising. If you examine history, up until just 400 years ago, China's economy, technology, and society was number one in the world. But since then we have fallen off our path because of both internal and external reasons. However, it is in our will to make our country prosperous again. Stop western imperialist from separating us and getting taken advantage of. This was the dream of Chongzhen last Emperor of Ming dynasty (1600AD) to see China flourish in the world again.

Step by step, we are just getting back to track to where we should be. China rise peacefully in harmony as one.

How do you keep going on and on and on? You're like a broken record.

I guess we should not differentiate humans since we all descend from a common ancestor eh?

We differentiate the mainland Chinese to others as many from mainland are uncultured in the Western traditions and rude because of the lack of formal education.

As a resident in Richmond, it terrifies me driving everyday. The hyper awareness, i disagree with, as every other block you travel someone is honking in aggravation. Being in China's taxi's again terrifies me as rules are mere suggestions and the enforcement of said rules are random.

Again not ALL Chinese are bad drivers, just an overwhelming portion.

If China ever declared war on Canada, I would fight for Canada. Hell, I'd sooner support 'Murica than China.

i think you're mixing up race and ethnicity. ethnicity includes sociocultural factors. don't tell me that hong kong has the same social values and culture as someone deep into the provinces of "mainland" china.

the different "terms placed prior to china" are to specify different ethnicities within the "race" of chinese people based on how the billion person population of china has evolved into many different types of microcultures/societies.

China is ethnically diverse. we already have white russians around 100k population, some lived China for hundreds of years already. They all proudly call themselves Chinese. White Kazakhs, jews, euroasians, arabics, even Nigerians all live in China, as long as they have permanent residence status, and accept Chinese society, then they are Chinese.

Even if you ban9 them, they'll just sign up with another account or with another IP.

You know the State has a huge budget to financially support mindless propaganda operations, right?

But the saddest thing of all is, in addition to these hired idiots, there are actually real life idiots that believe in this "China = biggest and best" bullshxt... :facepalm:
