With all that happens in the world I always question how the US is supposedly the most racist country in the world...

The US is far from being racist in this world.

Now, something much more realistic ~ proportionately, per person, African-Americans each have more throw weight in nukes than the Chinese.

It is a mistake to view the Chinese as either civilized or powerful.

So the Chinese are acting like Democrats here in America. No surprise here.

Because foreigners speak our language, and most Americans don't speak theirs.

Sounds like the typical symptoms of the old "Middle Kingdon Syndrome".

China forgets manners

Sounds to me like a bunch of people on an internet forum lost their manners, not "China."

They have a lot of racists in their population. It goes way deep.

And they thought Mad Halfdull was good looking? Geez, the Chinese have really weird taste in women.

Anyone who doesn't think that the Chinese, Koreans and Japanese are not profoundly racist has not traveled much. Look at Tibet and the situation of the multitude of other minorities in China to begin with. Look as well at the immigration policies of Japan and Korea, particularly their citizenship requirements to see what they think.

Chinese people are allowed access to those forums if and only if they toe the official line.

It would appear racism is part of the official Chinese line.

Lighter skinned Chinese look down on darker Chinese. Always have. Same in India.

In fairness, this website isn't necessarily representative of "Chinese thinking on the matter generally." Any website permitting anyone with a 'net connection to post their bloviatings is going to get some moonbattery.

Of the 800 posters who weighed in on the issue, only 10% (80 people) posted anything "racist, sexist or both." (What % of the comments were merely "sexist" wasn't reported). Either way we're talking just a few people here. ....Hardly anything to get too exercised about.

Now if a gov't official made similar comments we'd have a story.

China forgets? Hello!

Han Chinese have a HUGE superiority complex, both in terms of race as well as the Chinese heritage.

Disgusting!

Doesn't matter what a bunch of chat-room warriors think. She's still the most powerful woman on the planet.

China is another place whose leaders are looking at the current wave of democratic sentiment with dismay. Tiananmen Square didn't end anything, and it did reveal an intense undercurrent of desire for freedom in the usually docile Chinese population. If the wave happens to crest there the earth will shake.

with Dr Rice calling it "unhelpful".

That's diplo-speak for "Fat chance, you dumb$#!ts. Are you crazy?"
