Zhang Chenchen further defined the word "baizuo" with the definition "People who only care about topics such as immigration, minorities, LGBT and the environment" and have no sense of real problems in the real world;
They are hypocritical humanitarians who advocate for peace and equality only to satisfy their own feeling of moral superiority; they are obsessed with political correctness to the extent that they tolerate backwards Islamic values for the sake of multiculturalism;
They believe in the welfare state that benefits only the idle and the free riders; they are the ignorant and arrogant westerners who pity the rest of the world and think they are saviours.
Baizuo is used as an insult amongst Chinese netizens.
Those Chinese get it.
Baizuo literally means "white leftists" i.e.) entitled, phony, condescending leftists, who actually are very selfish.
Great definition.
Of course his outrage might have been more effective if he didn't tweet things like this only a couple months ago.
AWESOME!!
Thanks!
