Ever notice it's only westerners who talk about this **** like it's a magical transformation of light and soul?
Talk about escapism by *******izing someone else's culture...
It's not just westerners. CYMAC? Any number of Asian MA instructors who moved West and exploited it? Kung fu Movies? The Boxers? It's kind of a tradition, someone more educated could go on about this, but "we didn't start the fire."
