I was just making a point about bawang's moral equivalency argument that racism in China is not as bad because the Chinese didn't participate in the transatlantic slave trade.
Beyond that I don't really understand what exactly you guys are addressing with your own moral equivalency, maybe b-wizzy can oblige you in that discussion.
racism in china is not as bad because the chinese did not participate in the transatlantic slave trade.
in high school my black friend get fukin flash backs like a war vet with ptsd. i experienced it too, even a simple word leaves a powerful echo in your mind, you suddenly see the face of everyone that called you that name, and all their voices. im trying to make you understand that.
when a minority calls another minority a name, we feel nothing. when a white person calls you a name, it carries power. it resonates like a gunshot. some people get so enraged they dont eat and sleep. its that powerful. and to compare that to ignorancce in china is rediculous.

No, just using your post as a jumping off point. My comment was not addressed directly to you or anything you have said, but to the conversation in general.
There is no moral equivalency, but there is a socio-cultural narcissism involved in judging past cultures for their perceived moral failings against today moral standards.
Today's narcissist, holier-than-thou judges will also be judged by the holier-than-thou narcissists of the future!
Human beings do bad things, no one is better or worse than anyone else in the long run. Today's judges happily kill the unborn and are now trying to kill off the those who are too expensive to keep alive, and they think they won't be judged by future generations for this?
What goes around comes around!

The same goes for all peoples friend, the Chinese were, historically, just as, or more cruel than early white settlers of America. I am unaffected by what my forefathers did or didn't do.
The past is the past!
Qin was a bad, bad man. He unified China, but he did it against the will of the people. He killed millions of people and enslaved the entire populace to his view of the way things SHOULD be! They remain under a semblance of servitude to this day.
Be sure to share that history with your family village as well, when you have the time to visit them.

I was on the metro earlier, deep in meditation, when a ruffian came over and started causing trouble. He started pushing me with his bag, steadily increasing the force until it became very annoying. When I turned to him, before I could ask him to stop, he immediately started hurling abuse like a scoundrel. I performed a basic chin na - carotid artery strike combination and sent him to sleep. The rest of my journey was very peaceful, and passersby hailed me as a hero - Warrior Man
