Story time. When my brother worked for a multinational in China, they had one of those awful corporate "rally the troops" kind of meetings. When one of the bosses asked the workers, "What are the three things you need to be successful in this company?", one brave soul replied "white man suit". The bosses were shook and stumbled over their well rehearsed platitudes for a while after that.
I lived in HK for a short while and became familiar with there electoral system and the average workers perception while living there. I was working as a chef helping my partner at the times family out in one of there resturaunts, so had time to speak to people.
Most of the workers where making 2-3 usd a hour, when asked how high there rents where it was usually above 1.5k usd a month; most people working I knew worked 60-70 hour work weeks and lived in coffin homes with no kitchen or bathrooms, just a bed.
Anyway, for the longest time the largest chamber of the HK legislative was non-elected, and put in place to represent the colanial powers interests. This board is made up of mostly white people.
When libs try to tell me about HK and cite HK free press, a derivative of RFA I point out the same contradiction, most of the people who own that news orgs are outsiders representing colonial interests.
This is the owner of HK free press lmao
I feel like there's hope. When I was in China before COVID and the trade war there were so many KKKrakas in advertisements and billboards. I went back after the lockdowns for a week and didn't spot a single whitey in any ads. Maybe the tide is turning.
What does that supposed to mean?
They are hired for being white. Also known as 'white monkey' type work.

Well that's not at all a disparaging name
99% chance that the biggest sinophobes are the token Asian Americans.
Self-hatin' yakubian devils...
