Communism has just about ruined the Chinese.
And just outright killed most of the good ones. This is often what is left:

Chinese are progressing, slowly but steadily. Chinese in China call us such behavior in China too.
If you want to see Chinese public behavior of 50 years ago in practice today - go to India.
While it’s a word not often used these days, that behavior can be described as uncouth.
godless confucian scum that the Earth would be better rid of ... soon.
When I first heard the story, I knew the perps were immigrants.
As much as it sours me to have lived my life with Japan’s nativist centrism, and have despised the Japanese for what they did to every non-Japanese 80-100 years ago, things like this is why they will never truly open their doors.
I don’t want to say this is a lesson for us, but I cannot avoid the thought.
Well, so much for “eating your peas because there are starving people in Red China”.
This is the product of Karl Marx, that “white” guy that lived in Germany.
And is buried in London.
There’s an 80’s-era SNL skit in there: Mike Myers can be the angry McDonald’s manager. Chris Farley could be the Chinese man trying to buy 40 meals. Julia Sweeney could be an exasperated employee at the counter. Rob Schneider could be an employee overlooking the limit “for a consideration” in the background, passing meals to Phil Hartman, Nora Dunn, and Kevin Neelan—who sniff and nibble at the food but marvel over the cards. Jan Hooks and Victoria Jackson could be moms with a couple of kids each being turned away for various reasons, real or bogus.
Chinese: mainland or Taiwan? If I had to guess: Taiwan.
It's not from Confucius nor Buddha, any more than our feral behaviors are from Aristotle or Jesus. Both theirs and ours come from the same source, Maoist nihilism.
Yes.
When people today think of China, most don’t know much about it pre-Communism.
This is just like the H1-B Indian families at Costco with samples. They all run in front of people in the line and reach through every which way, and you don’t ever get one, because they come back. Even the illegals have better manners, but they have Western understanding Eastern cultures just apparently don’t provide.
Chinese and Vietnamese cultures appear to believe money equates to being closer to their god. They are a different concern.
When people today think of China, most don’t know much about it pre-Communism.
Just as few know about Pre-War Japan, and how things worked there. I myself, have just started trying to learn about what went on there from the end of WWI and Pearl Harbor, and it’s quite fascinating. But for some reason, while we all know about what happened in Germany, few know about what went on in Japan.
What’s your problem with Confucius?
I remember that. In my old neighborhood, it was more commonly shortened, as in “Ain’t ya got no couth?”
Why not just sell the phookin’ cards and don’t even include the food?
Seems like slam-dunk money maker.
But I guess Capitalism isn’t their ting . . .
The Chinese have been bad in Japan for a decade now. They come to do reselling, so they lug around a LOT of luggage everywhere they go, including mobilized luggage that they ride on.
Then they mob popular eateries where locals go with the tons of luggage with them, after which the establishment then bans all foreigners.
This time, they came for Pokemon cards, bought the happy meal or whatever with it, and just left the food behind.
The funniest thing they do is ride on rickshaws at popular locations and then stream it and send it back to their friends, saying, “hey look at my Japanese slave pulling me around.”
Only American live streamers are hated more than the Chinese.
I remember years ago when I went to Paris, I thought I accidently landed in Beijing.
