I wouldn’t quote this YouTuber for everything, but he was born in South Africa and was a teenager when the country was still under apartheid: if he was horrified by the blatant racism when he was in China, I can’t imagine it was light or rare.

I’m not really surprised. And I’m scared that might be good business _in China_; whether the effort to go against that trend will pay off internationally remains to be seen.

Knew it was a serpentza link before I clicked on it. You can make your own conclusions but I don't really see him as anything more than a clickbaiter. He lives in the US now and has said that the US is the only society without true racism, if you want to get a sense of his biases.

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with calling that a silly bias unless I heard his explanation. Point taken though - I'm weary of this genre of content producer.
