Chinese aren't racists. Nor do they seek to invade America. An ocean of difference.

No, the Chinese are not particularly racist, although they are not immune from it. The Nazi's didn't try to invade American either. But the parallel is the unrealistic arrogant juvenile jingoistic nationalism of an emerging power. It worries me because folks that deal with Chinese tell me it is a common attitude - an arrogant belief that China will inherit the earth as the dominant power, and a refusal to deal with nuance and an understanding that in the end the good life is not about any of that. It is all fools gold.
