?

that is not to say that people thought they were on the level of sub-saharans

They were incredibly poor. One of the poorest.

I mean, it wasn't far off.

yes, yes it was

Western depictions of Chinese back then was incredibly racist.

one region had civilization for thousands of years, the other did not

No, no it wasn't.

FDR, WW, TR?

Both did.

But China back then was despised using the same nonsense that you all despise Africans today.

Those stereotypes still apply to Africans for some reason

seatbelt concept

you have no idea what you're talking about, the Chinese had cities, literature, philosophy - they were understood to be a civilized people, its not comparable to what was observed in Africa

lol

The same racist, genetic determinist claims.

@Nerthulas I absolutely DO know what I'm talking about. I'm Chinese.

rope concept

"No dogs and Chinese allowed"

that means nothing 😂

What's the difference between Japan, Haiti & Iceland? They're all islands

the4y also had history that was written down

we're talking about western views of the Chinese and Africans respectively

Dude, you want to go head to head with me on the history of my own country?

if anything I would be less likely to trust you on this matter

Why?

its not the history of your country

its the history of my country

It quite literally is.

didn't know the West is a country now.

yes

the matter of what Europeans thought of Chinese vs Africans during the colonial period is absolutely a part of my country's history

lol

Chinese were not thought to be on the same level as Africans, that's ridiculous

As is what Europeans thought of Chinese a part of Chinese history.

I'm not saying they were.

that is what you said, yeah
