I always find bullying of service workers solely out of a sadistic thrill to be disgusting
It's a huge red flag too!

Well karma will come around, don't worry.
Hopefully exactly as disgusting as the freshly plucked pubic hairs, snot and jizz that surreptitiously ends up said abusive douchebag's food on a regular basis.

I took a girl to a restaurant and she pulled the same thing. Treated the wait staff like crap and was just nasty. I Did not finish the meal. I payed and told her I'm out. Find a ride home. And did it in front of the staff. Best thing I ever did.

I'm with you, Winston. During my nearly 20 years in China, many rich people warned me about poor people - that they would cheat me if I treated them fairly. I found quite the reverse. Most rich people I knew were always cheating - almost like a sport or pathological compulsion. And the poor - like bike repair guys would often do little things for free! One time I actually haggled with a bike repairman - except I was pushing the price up and he was pushing it down!!
ahahaha, I would have loved to hear that conversation. I'm sure you were blowing his mind when you wanted to pay more.
Pretty typical projection- the cutthroat cheaters assume that the rest of us are as cutthroat cheating as they are.

Because this is weird. Chinese people actually believe poor people are morally bad and rich people are nice and innocent....although u do kinda here similar rhetoric in the states but less obvious and no one will actually admit that when asked to think about it .but China literally think poor people are bad .
Rich Chinese find no value in the labor of poor . We know that the bargen culture is really high in China. Everything is negotiable but the Rich will actually think these poor people are bad because they even think to desire a fair shake . It's crazy ,and on top of all that no tip lol cuz they not a tipping culture well kinda .give a red packet with less than 1rmb lol

I am Tibetan and live in America. What I learn here is not matter how much money you have always respected the people who are handling your food. It's just common sense.
Imo, people handling your food can spit, pee, or even spike something poisonous if they wanted to spite you. Being rude achieves nothing but giving them a reason to do so

@@brittanycunningham787 Screw both of you. Unions made this country great and the destruction of Unions led to the mess we have. Why do you think we no longer have children working in mines and people no longer show up at the gates of a factory to see if they get to work and eat that day? Unions.
Damn straight. I worked at a Taco Bell in high school and there were three sisters they were older Hispanic ladies and they played zero games with peoples attitudes. And what they would do to the burritos of assholes almost makes you wish they just spit in it cause with saliva at least you can rest easy it’s basically water….but when you pop a zit into something, even though it’s minuscule in comparison to the amount of spit you could produce on command there is something about the solid nature of puss and compared to the more liquid state of saliva. And there is no knowing. At the drive through Mexican joint down the road from this Taco Bell I worked at they ended up on the news cause some employee was ejaculating into people burritos and yea that’s disgusting but I’ve wondered the past 10 years how that man was able to produce so much semen and how he got away with Uhm 😶 manufacturing(?) it.
Here in the Philippines, there was this Chinese woman who went viral and got into local news years ago due to what she did. In our country eating food at the platforms and inside a our metro trains is not allowed. The Chinese girl at the time was carrying and eating Taho(a warm Tofu like snack) while entering the platform. A guard told her it was not allowed, the Chinese girl in rage threw the Taho at the guard. To make the long story short, due to what she did she was deported and ban from entering the country.
@trumpisthemessiah7017actually most black people act polite. My son is 3 and loves to say hello to people the people who ignore him the most is white people. Most other races say hello back not the white adults or children
Good!!!
I'm guessing there is a very good reason for that rule: if food were allowed, some would accidently spill, and that would be food for rats so they'd be a bigger problem. (I have a relative in New York City. Rats are a big problem. Just look at Trump :-) )

@@MrYelly pure facts
I had a similar experience in Thailand while dating a girl from a wealthy family who was Thai-Chinese. She spoke perfect English and was beautiful, kind, and sweet (to me at least) and we got on great. She could have bought and sold me ten times over but it didn't seem to bother her and I really liked her until spending a few days in her hometown, Hat Yai. The way she treated people and her attitudes towards the poor really turned me off and it was embarrassing for me at times. We would pull up at a restaurant in her Mercedes and she would immediately get on the horn, demanding staff come outside and organise for other people to move their cars so we could park. She was just so abusive I couldn't believe it. One night we walked into a crowded bar and she started yelling at the staff, demanding they find a table for us and eventually a table full of locals were moved away so we could sit down; I was too embarrassed to make eye contact with anyone.
Another time she had to pick something up for her father from a local factory. She pulls up next to the security booth and started yelling at the guard, and eventually after several trips back and forth the guard had delivered a bunch of small packages. I asked her why not just bring it all at once and she told me that she only asked for the items one at a time because people like him are too stupid to remember two things at once.
The final nail in the coffin came when we were driving past some small rubber plantations. She explained to me that local farmers - at the time at least - were getting really good money for rubber and pointed out new houses they were living in and the nice cars they were driving. I thought that's great for the farmers, but it definitely wasn't an attitude shared by her. She explained to me how wrong it was that these, stupid, uneducated, lazy farm people could earn a good living, which made it difficult for her family to find enough workers for their factories, so they now had to offer better wages and conditions. She was utterly disgusted by these people making a good living. She really seemed to view them as human trash who only existed to benefit the wealthy.

That's the China I know. Humans are not humans unless you are rich, or you are only a human-ores.
What else can you expect in communist indoctrination. Where humans are just robots.
Bullying service people is really one of the most disgusting things someone can do, in my opinion. It really shows someone's character, how they treat someone that they have power over.
It's half the reason they have zero shame in re-using sewer oil etc getting one over on the gullible rich that visit them. that and lack of resources to get fresh of course but their delight when serving some asshat rotten food must give them pleasure lol

As an American I get so pissed seeing people mistreat others in the service industry. I don't work in it myself because I know what its like but I still respect them.
What if their service is lazy & they couldn’t careless?
@@Comeswoopfam Then there is a way to handle it in a professional manner. That still doesn't give anyone the right to be rude.
'i dont work in it myself because i know what its like' well consider yourself lucky then. That's called privilege. Most people working food service have no choice. Under capitalism you work or you die, no matter how demeaning/degrading the work is. The united states is nauseating. People wonder why so many amerikans snap and shoot up schools, it's the exact same reason chinese snap and stab school children. capitalism in every form will lead to this and worse levels of societal decay. once you're pushed around enough, you push back, much harder.
Service sector, blue collar and other physical work like emergency services and the military is probably the only type of work I have explicit respect for. Anything that's hard on the body deserves credit, bonus points if it's stressful on the mind as well, then you're an absolute machine for doing it.
Rude people everywhere, she crying because this not common, how stupid this guy is?🤭
China turned me into the worst possible version of myself when I lived there. You can't be nice. You just can't. The whole environment pushes you to disregard, and in my case, just despise everyone else. Hold a door for someone? As you said, everyone just takes advantage. You're the doorman now, and no one even thanks you. Need to get off the bus or the train because you're coming on your stop? No amount of polite asking will get anyone to move and inch. You have to start shoving people if you don't want to miss your stop. And that's just basic navigation. Never mind the constant scams people are trying to pull, or the terrible food safety.
Sounds dystopian. Add in cybernetic implants, and you have yourself a Cyberpunk dystopia. Just imagine, 1 billion people live like that. Crazy.
USSR was similar. Not at this extent but watching this video many memories came back.

@@evitarudzite2632 what happens when people don't see their individual actions as having any meaning
@@threegenders201 - if you are asking a question than RabaDeuce had the answer. There needs to a a whole system (government) change for this to turn around.
I work in the service industry in America, I clean carpets in high end office buildings, I'm in the offices of CEOs and executives every night, sometimes they work late and I run into them. I have had amazing conversations with these people. They make 10 times my salary and they ask me about myself, my hobbies, if I like my job, if my pay is enough, they want to know if my company treats it's people well, and they are always appreciative of my work. They always thank me and most of them shake my hand no matter how dirty it is. I never feel like I'm lesser. Most people in America view each other as equal even if they make more and drive a nicer car. I used to do outside sales at my company and would network and go to luncheons and dinner parties all the time with wealthy executives and they were always so nice to the waiters and restaurant staff, they always left huge tips. And these are the supposed evil capitalists that look down on the working class
@@ithecastic virtue signaling normally involves genuflecting around a group of like minded peers. These conversations happen later in the evening while the executive is working late and nobody else is around. Most of them started as entry level employees and slowly worked their way up. Also most of these people are Republicans so I doubt they do much virtue signaling
Few people appreciate this part of American culture.
Thank you for sharing ❤️
I've learned more from janitors etc all kinds of wisdom.
Maybe this happened once or twice but i dont buy this being a regular occurrence for you.
OMG! This is so true! My first visit to Shenzhen. My sister in law was nearly nine months pregnant at the time. We were waiting for the train to arrive. She told me, "Stand right there on the platform, and when the door opens you rush in and grab me a seat". At that moment I was actually standing at the platform, first in line thinking I got this. By the time the train pulled up, I was surrounded by pushing and shoving Chinese people of all genders and ages, pushing and jostling for position. Old ladies were trying to crowd me out. When the door finally did open up, it was tons worse than any Wal-mart Black Friday sale I had ever seen. I am not a small guy, yet those little people around me were friggin animals. They pushed me around like a little kid. And I didnt get a seat for her. Every person on that car (and it was packed full) noticed a pregnant women standing there, and could give two shits about.
So after that, on the next train ride back to Hong Kong, same thing going in. Only this time I was bad ass Dick Butkus. I pushed and elbowed a clear path for her and got her a seat.
I would hate to have to live my life that way.
So long China, I have never been back.
Damn, that's awfull 😢.was everything okay ? I mean, Her Baby ?
After all said and done, you behaved just like them. I'm not criticizing. I did the same in Hong Kong. I started nicely but it got too much.
@@dadangkkurniawan8442 Yes fine. 21 years old now, still living in Hong Kong.
@@talon310calif it's unfortunate where you have to act like the locals just to survive. Not a place to live for sure.
Their One Child policy and the accompanying "family planning by violence" has seen the rise of a couple of generations who dont see human life as valuable. That scares the shit out of me.
For a communist country, China has the worst social class related issues.
These are ALL Communist countries. Believe, I lived in one since birth until our Revolution.
You could find that same class thinking in communist Germany. There, it was less about money, but about your position in the party and who you knew. It's all about power.
Which is why people say they're not really communist at all, they're more like a State-Capitalism thing going on, where the government owns the means of production and pretends they're distributing wealth.
This is true. I've met people from other communist countries who would never dream of behaving that way.
That's what communism does, every time. Duh
I agree 100%. I married into a family in which my husband grew up sleeping in one bed with 5 people in a house with a single room. They were humble back then. Fast forward 13 years from 1990 to 2003. They were now nuevo rich. They suddenly felt just fine treating workers horribly. It was awful. I was so embarrassed traveling around with them. I kept thinking: Have you forgotten where you came from? I guess so.
That's what we call in french "parvenus" it's a word to qualify that exact behaviour. People who are happy to put down others once they themselves have success. And often, those who act like this have succeded out of luck, not because they have talent or worked hard. Those who have talent are often humble.
@@xminusone1 This is one of the few people I have seen who is more objective, analyzing people's experiences or mentality changes, rather than a specific race.
I think it is also how they were raised and how one has perspective of the world too. My family been through lots of up and down in my country. Then when we moved to the U.S. We started all over but we always stay humble and know our root. Funny enough, we never want to dress stand out or deman for expensive food and eat whatever convenient to the family. But even our own families there judge d us saying how come we are not fancy and not dressing well like they are. Said if it were them, they wouldn't eat what we eat 🤣. We just said we mind eating simple food bec we dont want to demand much and make it easy for people. Hah!
I have seen many poor people who have become suddenly rich forget their past. Probably they think money is most important to do what you want to do in life and so tried to make money by taking advantage of others so they still do not care or take into consideration for others. The problem here with Myanmar generals who are now taking the leadership positions are the same too. Since they are rankers rising from privates, when they get power they mistreat their own staff because this is how they were treated before becoming to that level. When they get top leadership role, they think they are small god or kings and want people to worship them.
@@jamperTotal in china it does. In Australia you can't tell the people worth 65 million from anyone else. I know several millionaires and some are relatives. One relative knows a guy worth at least 65 million likely more and said you'd never realise. There's actually PILES of stories here of people worth millions getting kicked out of BMW dealerships. One guy and his brother owned huge coal mines. They wouldn't let him sit in a small BMW and kicked him out basically calling him poor because of how he was dressed. His and his brothers mines were valued that year for tax reasons. 274 million dollars.
I work in aerospace and there was a young Chinese man who was living and working in Kansas that worked in our office. I still don't know how he was allowed to work there. Anyway, he was what we considered upper middle class and even he was incredibly pompous. He couldnt wait to brag about every little thing he felt was superior. He told me, completely unsolicited, that he'd never driven himself anywhere until he came to Kansas. He drove 150 miles to buy sandals at a luxury store in KC and never cooked his own meals. He was under the impression this was appealing behaviour to Americans.
Thats how large the gap are between the poor and the rich. Most of the time through nepotism, the rich get richer and the poor get more desperate. The ethical issues between the moral compass of the people is really low if you go higher in the pyramid and also to the lower pyramid. Human degenerations, it's accumulated through this conjunction. Low ethics will gave rise to that of a unlawful societies. Propaganda everywhere.. We are in war against the principalities of this world. War against the enemy of the humanity. War against the atrocities committed by Evil.
Our world right now are moving towards changes. Both toward the goodness of Humanity and Full control over the population via brainwashed deadbeat zombies. This is not a threat but something that had accumulated through the years.
It's now being pulled to the surface because we have internet and now the social media platforms are being repressed.
But..I believe in humanity. I believe we all will win against the Evil that are begin to show themselves causing hatred and trying to divide us all. I believe we all will made it.
People without God (or moral teachings) in their heart think "humans" with money and political connection is God... He expected you to think of him as superior by telling you he has money and connection.
@@ligbzd837 Same way people think about Elon Musk and Donald Trump in America

Here in Vegas I was working at a women's clothing store called Bebe in a tourist heavy area and was ringing up this Chinese tourist. Time to pay she threw the money in my face, I calmly picked up her money bill by bill and folded it neatly, walked to the entrance door and threw her money out into the crowd. Walked back up to her and told her she can leave now. Played out about as well as you think lol, manager wasn't in that day so amazingly I didn't get fired but it was a seasonal job so I was only there other week anyways lol.

2 experiences of dealing with Rich Chinese. My mother being assistant director at Eurotunnel and some high profile Chinese execs turning up - behaved like exclusive VIP and expecting nothing but Chinese food and be served. Me being assistant director for a summer school, and them rich Chinese kids and their assistants expecting full Chinese food catering and be treated like royalty - they had to be put back in their place, told they were students exactly like the other students, blend in if you don't like it, leave and go back to your country.
Years ago I went with a Chinese girlfriend to Sears to help her find some furniture but no one was manning that area so I had to go find someone to help. After a bit of a wait someone finally came and I thought great, now we can get on with ordering what she wanted, but instead my girlfriend proceeded to lecture this low level employee for 15 minutes about our having to wait and the store not having the area manned. It dawned on me that if she treated this person this way, it was only a matter of time before she did the same to me.
I don't get why some people can't just think that there may be a staff shortage or that staff are busy. It's not just some Chinese people, there's that bad and entitled behavior in every country. There's a video about what the Dutch think of Americans. And some people, including some Americans, stereotype Americans as rude too. Such as some American tourists expecting the world to know English. The reverse happens too. Some migrants to English speaking countries expected people to know their language too.

We saw a waitress crying the other night when my husband and I went out to eat. She didn’t want to tell us what happened but finally (after we bugged her) we found out that the rowdy guys that had been sitting close to us had skipped out on their bill plus they had harassed her the whole time they were there. She said her boss would take the cost of their meal out of her paycheck. My husband went and paid those guys check and gave her a tip on top of it. She was astonished that we did that but I have been a waitress when I was younger and in college. I hated it. It was the most thankless job I’ve ever had in my life. I know there are so many waiter’s and waitresses that are good at their job and love it but I absolutely hated it. We did that for the waitress because we wanted her to know that there are awful people in the world but there are also kind, decent people. I don’t care how much money I have I will never treat anyone less than. Not the janitor at the school and not the waitress in a sports bar. You should treat others with dignity unless they mistreat you or someone else. That lady crying at the car broke my heart. I wish I could give her a hug and tell her not everyone is hateful like that.

I agree with you 100%. I lived in China for 15 years and it sickened me to see the service workers treated poorly. I always engaged them. Loved speaking with them. Never saw them as less than me.
You're a good person, thanks
I always go by "no-one is below me and no-one is above me" meaning we are all equal and to treat everyone with respect and dignity
Agree 100%
It was a culture shock for me when I had to take a business trip to Shanghai and I saw the wealth gap and this mistreatment of people. I described it to friends as a high-tech 3rd world. Ferraris dodging bikes. 50 story buildings with entire sides covered in LCD panels running video and at the base, dirty toothless women with babies begging for money. And I am not talking about a couple. I am talking about hundreds of them and everywhere.
I was staying at a really nice hotel. I arrived late in the evening so I dumped my bags and went down to the bar. I sat at a table by myself and watched stunned as every table treated the waitress like absolute garbage. Half of the people there were from Japan so I thought maybe it was a racial thing. After a couple weeks there I realized it was a Class thing and what I had seen was local businessmen showing their clout in front of visiting businessmen from Japan. No matter where I went I saw people with money treating people 'below' them like dogs. Whether it was shopping or bars or restaurants, the more nicely someone was dressed, the more unbearable they were to anyone they were interacting with.
Treatment of others was bad as well. As was mentioned, it is almost a necessity to set aside a part of your humanity in order to function there. You have to push your way on or off subways or buses or you will never get anywhere. No holding doors for people. I held an elevator door for a woman and six more people pushed in. I had to take the next elevator and they didn't care. You have to be aggressive standing in line anywhere or people will just push in front of you.
It was really sad. I loved getting to see the old gardens and ancient temples. However, once my business there was done, there was never a place that I have been more happy to leave.
Dude the CCP has wrecked China by ripping out traditional Chinese spirituality and morality, which is actually extremely sophisticated and beautiful. I have studied Taoism and I love it, it is amazing. But the chinese communist party wants immoral greedy atheists who worship them/"the party". If you really do a deep dive, communism and cultural marxism has its roots in satanism. Satanism is a very real but occult/hidden spiritual movement and core tenet of it is "the ends jystify the means", ie: do what it takes to get what you want and also "radical selfishness". In addition, if life is meaningless, there is no karma and no god, what does it matter if you are a terrible person? You can be a total demon and there is no penalty so why not? I do not believe this and acrually god is real, karma is real and life has meaning ... but you see how this bad collective spiritual software creates such an animalistic "dog eat dog" society. To learn more see Mark Passio's detailled breakdowns of satanism teachings and mind control:
Dude it's bizarre. Asia is so materialistic these days and in China's case, straight up satanic. Meanwhile the West is - overall - becoming more spiritual in comparison and things like yoga, meditation, 'karma' and taoism have literally never been more popular. Much of this stuff originated in Asia, where it is increasingly being abandoned 🙄🤦♂️🤷♂️
Not surprised for a country that do not know God. The result is cruelty to fellow human and animal cruelty.
San Francisco is worse
@J Best Two things here -
First, You have completely missed the point of Winston's video and message. The message is that no matter one's perceived 'social class' or status, we should treat each other with respect and dignity. This has absolutely zero bearing on a so called 'maturity level' of an economy and/or anything to do with any type of 'wealth gap'. And nothing to do with country/nationality.
Second, You used this 'new growing economy' and needing time to close the 'gap' schtick as an excuse for the Chinese behavior depicted. And that is Lame. Not only that, you didn't stop there. You took it even a step further. Feeding-off that to roll tight into a 'whataboutism' aimed at the US.
You think you're slick and crafty, but you're not. Nice try Clown.
I have a close friend that married a woman that Immigrated to the USA from Japan. He was on a visit with her back to Japan and encountered Chinese tourists while shopping. Several of these tourists attempted to cut in a long line to pay for items. The Japanese shoppers were allowing it as if it was normal. My friend is a typical New Yorker from Staten Island. Needless to say, the Chinese tourists were placed back in line. His wife told him later this was a normal experience and that the average Japanese have an acute disdain for Chinese tourists. She also stated that it was very normal for the wealthier Chinese to come to Japan to shop because they were seeking items in Japan that could only be bought in China as counterfeits.
The difference between Japanese and Chinese people is night and day
I have seen worse behaviour with people from other cultural background especially from the West. There dressed inappropriately. Lots of drunkards fighting in the streets, threatening innocent bystanders and you don't feel safe without fearing getting mugged.
Mainland tourists are among the most least desired in the world.
@@carolflower8015 When I was a lowly shop girl, we had a group of Japanese men that would come in about twice a year. They would run me ragged, back and forth... and sometimes just stop in the middle of the store right in front of me, just to make me walk around them. They were terribly rude and quite sexist.
@@terfalicious As a foreigner in Japan I call BS on this
My Chinese wife kind of warned me of the lack of manners in China before I visited. It was astounding. For instance, one thing I didn't know at the time and it really hit home was that, If somebody stops in the street in the UK, people will politely queue behind them. It's a very British thing. Something Brits are proud of. But in China, Queue at your peril. They simply don't know the meaning. First come, first serve. Push, shove, i'm before you. I felt that no one was aware of or had any respect for anyone else around them.
The other thing was shouting "Foreigner!" (in chinese) at the top of their voices whenever I was spotted in a street. Something i've never experienced or ever done myself in any other country i've visited. Really strange and slightly annoying.
As for the "wealth is power" thing. I have seen that a lot in a few different places. People just act like dicks because what else have they got to worry about. But generally, it is curbed in the west as 3rd parties tend to step in and give them a good hiding for behaviour like that. No longer does the "Do you know who I am?" thing work with these people because they could potentially be eating fist before the sentence is over. Disrespecting people of lower financial standing is just disgusting and scummy. Maybe that doesn't happen in the east.
Reading your comment makes me not want to go to China
@@faye891 I once told my wife i'd be prepared to live in China when I retired. I've since redacted that statement. I was in North east China. Majority of Chinese people are good (I guess much like any other country) but I was married there and a policeman was assigned to me. I was never told this would happen. I found the food to be a real mixed bag. Building Health and safety was non-existent during construction. No international internet. Government personnel were A-holes and totally unhelpful. Zero wildlife. No modern headache tablets! The local pharmacy told me to drink an infusion of some herbal rubbish and if it didn't cure my headache in 10 days, return and try something else. I really expected a few thousand years of amazing history but it felt very eastern european. It was an amazing adventure but not one i'd care to repeat. It just felt like a huge backward step.
Ironically, they refer to their countrymen as "Da Jia" meaning big family.
@@sneakygloworm I will NEVER visit China until they start educating the children basic manners, overthrow the CCP that thrives on corruption and insatiable power grabbing, and all-for-myself mentality.
@@shsu7426 It's strange and sad isn't it. These problems probably start with children's education and stick with them their whole lives because they don't know any better. Without labelling (and being to harsh to the average Chinese citizen) one might call them Uncivilised. But I feel that is because they simply have next to zero outside influence so it ends up in a self sustaining loop of weird and awkward behaviour to many people outside, looking in. What I find very odd is that just across the water in Japan, the absolute polar opposite in social behaviour occurred. As far as manners and etiquette go, I found Japan to be the most advanced on the planet in that respect. And I truly felt that if I could, i'd move to Japan with all of it's cultural complexities. Kind of my soul-country.
My Chinese mother-in-law was amazed at the freedom our son had. She said in China, children are made to study dawn to dusk every day. And I can imagine it would mostly be false information about the west and how great Mao was. China is like the weird man that locks all the children in the cellar and tells them the world has ended.
I’m an American living in Thailand for the last 4-5 years. This is my second time living near Bangkok and I spent a year teaching in Seoul. Your videos are fascinating to me as I am a California licensed teacher who has taught online to Chinese students and been offered several very high paying positions in China. I’ve been intrigued, but always had a red flag in my mind about China. Thailand and Korea have similar cultural issues, many seem to be influenced by China. Yet, your stories make me really hesitant to consider China as a work option. Foreign teachers may not be paid as well here in Thailand, but the lifestyle seems much more laid back than the nonsense you describe happening in China. Being an immigrant is always a challenge and at times frustrating, no matter where you’re from or where you are, but China just seems to be a non-stop chore.
My sentiments EXACTLY!! I was going to teach in China, I mean complete with closing my business down at the end of the year and basically moving my whole world and life from US to China. This has completely changed my plans, because I know me, and between this and the spitting and the bumrushing masses, it's a no-go on that. My business and clients are happy that I am staying, though. I like my kindness, compassion, and lovely personality, I do not want it to change because I move to another country voluntarily. Hard pass. Good luck to you, though, teaching.
If I may ask, who site/resource did use to teach English online? I find myself in need of a job and I would also
like to see how I do in that specific role before making the move to another country to do that. Thank you for your time.
My friend told me an old Chinese woman walked up her driveway into her yard and picked tomatoes off her plants.
I saw one in Walmart take a whole ream of plastic bags off the register turnstile that the worker had just placed there and walk towards the exit. They had to run after her and stop her. It's like they're under the impression that their behavior is acceptable and if no one stops them they do what they want.
Hence why most public toilets don't have toilet rolls inside; you've got to take your own. And in some places, you've got to scan a QR code with your phone to get a limited supply from a dispenser.
I miss having Japanese tourists. Chinese tourists always litter, damage our local parks and let their children defecate in the street
That's literally it. They have no manners. They do not care about anyone else around them. I was just at the DMV in California two days ago and there was three lines to get in. A line for people with appointments, a line for no appointments, and a line for vehicle registrations only. Chinese mother and son came in and looked around.... And then just pushed their way all the way to the front of the line and the woman told the DMV person they were here for his driving test. The DMV lady told her Appointment? And she said no. The DMV person told her to go to the back of the blue line. The Chinese woman looked back, walked like three steps back with her son and just started trying to squeeze in the line and hahahahahahahah this sassy old black lady IMMEDIATELY said "UHHHHH HELLLLL NAAAAAAWWWW YOU GOTTA GO TO THE BACK, NOWWWWW!" and the Chinese lady just looked at her and turned back around BAHAHAHAHAH there's no way in hell that Chinese woman didn't know that what she was attempting to do was messed up, at the very least it should have been obvious to her, assuming she's been in this country for any length of time, HOW LINES WORK! I had no sympathy as she got yelled at by like ten different people because she wouldn't move and the DMV person finally had to intervene and went up to her and told her to get to the back of the blue line..... Well...... She saw the green line (vehicle registration) was WAAAY shorter so she got in that line. 😅 And at that moment the DMV person just looked over at the person in charge of registrations and told him DO NOT HELP THAT WOMAN SKIP THE LINE SHE'S PRETENDING TO BE DUMB OR SOMETHING 😂hahahahahahha had me dead and that's nothing, I recently went to Disneyland and in line for Space Mountain, a Chinese couple and their kids attempted to cut the line as well, just like nonchalantly trying to stand in front of people and they got yelled at, and then like ten minutes later the woman picks her kid up, PULLS HIS PANTS DOWN, AND SITS HIM ON A PLANTER AND THE KID STARTED TAKING A 💩 !!!!! BAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHHHHHAAAAA needless to say, another sassy black lady saved the day she immediately got out of line and went and got security who pulled the couple and their children out of line and had a Disney crew member who spoke Chinese showed up quickly and had a full blown screaming match with the woman, it was soooooo bad but so funny
The new-rich act like this in any country. There is an old saying: ''A suit suits well in 3-rd generation.''
So sad
Okay this makes COMPLETE sense to me. I used to work in a grocery store here in the UK, and Chinese students would very often just walk straight into me and genuinely make my job more difficult than it would already be for seemingly no reason. I wont lie, I felt guilty that I was stereotyping, but it was every single person who would shop in my store. This video contextualizes my experience perfectly
Never, absolutely never feel guilty for your own observations and conclusions (as long as they are valid).
My first exposure was a Turkish restaurant close to the Chinese embassy in Berlin. Sometimes you would see what I guess were embassy staff walk in, demanding to be able to inspect the grilled chickens just to then comment loudly in front of everyone that the quality was not to their standards and they left. When I was younger things like this puzzled me ... then I went to China... I have to add though that a two year stay in Hong Kong also taught me that you shouldn't really generalise. There were worlds in between Hong Kong and Shenzhen ....

I was married to a Thai-Chinese, and she had the same attitude. Needless to say, the marriage didn't last long.
This explains so much. I don’t know if you’ve ever been on a (European or American) cruise, but the Chinese guests will push past queues, jump in the elevator you’ve been waiting for, take waaaay too much food at the buffet etc. It’s deeply unpleasant.
LOL sounds just like the Russians I encountered at the Dead Sea in Israel.
I often go to Cancun. The Chinese people totally fill their plates with food overflowing and take like 5 desserts and their small children go to the buffet by themselves and do the same. Then after eating maybe 25% of what they take, they get up and walk out. It all goes in the trash. They are oblivious.
@@macc240038 It's like they forgot to teach the children right from wrong. Well, religion is banned in China, so...

A buddy of mine married a women from China. My buddy basically had to break her of that poor attitude she had towards service workers. It was seriously like he was breaking a wild horse. She had to learn a whole new mindset. It was a struggle for her but she eventually came around and she is a great person now.

I worked at Sydney Univercity where Chinese studentsfrom China are the majority of students & I have to say I was shocked at their bad behaviour, the level of rudeness was astounding.
Same as ubc and university of Toronto
And their lack of manners while eating!
I was in highschool and most of the female Chinese foreign exchange students were nice. Some of the Chinese boys though were rude and thought we were stupid. Not all of them, but some
These students by good chance are from the family like the one who was driving the Benz.
I've been told that a substantial amount of Chinese students in Australia are there because they couldn't get into a Beijing Uni and instead of being seen sending their child to a 'lesser' uni their wealthy parents send them to a foreign western uni which holds its own kind of prestige regardless of the uni itself.
So right with your comments. The amount of wealthy Chinese who have been buying up here and taking over suburbs and living life as if it was still China; absolute arrogance / pompousness of these people is overpowering the Aussie spirit of welcoming, tolerance and giving everybody a chance. We are losing our identity because of a lot of these rich immigrants coming here in hoardes continuing the horrendous behaviours from their cultural background (and not just the Chinese, I might add)....
Yeah same here in UK too, don't wanna sound bigot, but I guess we have a religious problem now, people from lslamic nations like Pakistan, North African and some Arab states come here with their ludicrous and backward mentality, ghetto-fying places, grooming little girls, making sure to degrade the Christian culture.
It's happening in Texas (The United States too) the Chinese buying our property.

I was working in Egypt about 4 or 5 years ago going to new dig sites to get archaeological experience for my under grad. While I had some time off I went to the valley of the kings to experience the gorgeous tombs cut into the rock. While I was there I saw a Chinese man reach up and pick some of the paint off the wall of a 3,000 year old tomb. I just about lost my mind. I dragged him out of the tomb threw him in the sand and started screaming at him about what he was doing. The guards came over and I explained to them and they kicked him out but the whole time it’s like this guy had no clue what he was doing wrong. HE WAS DESTROYING HISTORY and he said “I just wanted to know if it was real” it’s just unbelievable
Ironic how a chinese person wanted to know if something is "real", considering how their country fake all sort of shits 💀
Nice one.. Was a Paris Airport and these 2 Chinese suits deliberately jumped the queue bit by bit. We all watched as they rudely nipped in. But polite westerners observed but action at Airport security was not what the wise wanted. So. Observed them later at duty free with bags of fags and booze. Big smiles of triumph. I felt sorry for them. Seriously sorry. They also made me think about things a lot deeper. Thanks to the Chinese 😊

Yeah, Taiwan rules! I was raised in North America, but born in Taiwan. Went back to Taiwan as an adult for the first time since I was an infant a few years ago, and wow, such a great experience and the people are kind and definitely different than everything I read about people from mainland China.
Unfortunately, my grandma would act fairly entitled and would treat servers pretty horribly.
I was disappointed with how my Uncle treated people in China during his tourist trips, he was told due to the fact he has millions of dollars. That he can freely treat the civilians with the worst attitude, yet receive no consequences about it. He recorded videos of himself disrespecting rural villagers, elders, homeless people & shop owners, etc. I seen a side of him I wish I knew about a lot sooner, he bragged about how satisfying it was to assert his dominance. It's heartbreaking.

I live in Las Vegas and there were a group of chinese people in front of the Mirage Casino Hotel. They pushed themselves through to the fence where the volcano goes off (with flames )and just ignored me and my family like we were not even there. They seem to have no awareness of others and only cared about themselves.
Most of them are CCP agents, get ready when they take over America and our police force protects them over us. Americans will be arrested by their police so China is able to take us over. Look at Covid and cops arrest church goers and restaurant owners. Sad times.
Yeah, Chinese tourists are the absolute worst.
Yeah. Sounds about right. Tell you what, it’s even more likely for them to do that to their fellow Chinese people abroad, because it’s somewhat easier for them to push around fellow Chinese people than Americans.
I was at Flamingo hotel eating my fish & chips meal on a patio. It was pretty busy, and a group of Chinese tourists just surrounded my table and shout around each other about my order of food, how much does it cost, how soon will I leave, etc. They want a table, but they don’t dare to invade the space of any American tourists, they think I am an easier target and it’s easier this way to annoy me off so they can have my table.
So I finished my meal, and I intentionally spread the residues to the table and the ground. They grab my chair even before I left the table, and I watched from a distance of seagulls constantly bothering them by picking up residues 😂

From 1998 to 2001 I made several week to a couple months long trips to China for my job. I was testing software and computer systems that my company sold to Chinese oil companies and installed on site. The oil company execs had several banquets for us celebrating progress milestones during our work. I noticed the rude way waitresses and other low level workers were treated. The waitress were never thanked, even though they were very good at their jobs. I always said thank you in my best "cher shi" or "xi xer" Mandarin I could muster. I even spoke to them by their names when I could. I noticed the locals, especially the oil company officials, noticing my politeness. One of my American colleagues gave me a "stop that" look several times.
I could tell the waitresses appreciated it because they were more cheerful around me than they were around the Chinese. The oil co. employees attempted to take turns "being polite" with me by going one-on-one with the toasts, "Ganbei". I don't remember the name of the liquor, but it was clear and to me it tasted like kerosene. I turned my shot glass upside down so that it would only hold a small amount of liquor in the concave well on the bottom. They told the waitress to turn it over before filling it. They were trying to get me drunk. She filled only the bottom well as I asked. I had already witnessed this one-on-one trick being used to get my colleagues very drunk. I held my ground and did not buy into their game.
At the end of this particular banquet I spoke to one of the English speaking waitresses. I proposed a toast to the waitresses and cooks and invited all of the waitresses to participate (all at once). I took a full shot this time for them. The waitresses were very happy to have been included. To my surprise, and even more so to my colleagues' surprise, the Chinese (CCP members) oil company officials seemed to admire my gumption as they treated me with great respect later.
Good show!

I experienced some of this nonsense at Shanhai (ShangXi?) airport pre-departure gate. One of the children of the family in front of me had gone back to get a drink from a vending machine. The rest of the family got through, but the guard wouldn't allow the child through. The cutoff time was 12:00 and the child had arrived back at 12:01. The father was saying "Look, you can let him through. Otherwise it is a disaster for us. One of us will have to stay back with him, and we will have to rebook flights. For what? What is served?". And the guard stepped onto the raised kiosk so he was towering over the man and shouted at him: "I am the boss! You do not talk back to me!" It was a horrible situation, and the family was visibly struck by this cruel and needless ego-trip. I felt like a jew en-route to a concentration camp. Never again will I route any flight via China. I will not be a part of their sad power-play drama. Something is deeply wrong in that culture.
When you're raised in a dog eat Dog environment, you'll take every opportunity to step on the weaker. It's sad but that's the culture they're raised in.

I used to go regularly to a Chinese warehouse/store here in the UK ,and the staff were very nice and polite. Slowly over the years I saw a shift in the Chinese staffs attitude towards the English customers (Their business was mostly wholesale to take- away restaurants) So I stopped going. But recently a friend asked about it as she had never been, so I took her and OMG I have never felt so uncomfortable. We were totally ignored at the fish counter until we just gave up and moved away, then my friend asked another staff member a question and he gave a very curt and unhelpful reply...then called out very loudly (In Chinese) to another member of staff who looked at us and burst out laughing. It was horrendous and I will NEVER, NEVER step foot in that place again.........even if I was starving!!
Same thing happened to me and a friend from Germany in San Fran. We went for a bite to in in a small local restaurant. We walked in and a few workers were sitting at a table chopping food others walking around. No one acknowledged us at all. Not to say, 'we are not open, or we are on lunch please come back'. Nothing. They just looked at us like we were ghost or a look of hostility. I was so embarrassed. My German friend brings it up all the time. I should have yelped a bad review but to be honest I was in shock, and still am.

I love that you included the video where the Chinese tourists were removed from the hotel. I live in Sweden and read about the incident. Swedish people know absolutely nothing abut China. It wouldn't surprise me if half the population doesn't even know it's not a democracy. When swedish people saw the unruly people rejected from the hotel, they figured they might have been drunk or mentally ill and thought nothing of it. When the CCP warned citizens of traveling to sweden, the swedish people was so confused. Such a culture shock.
Most do know how bad China is. The approval, rating and trust in China is at its lowest point ever. The official China/CCP BS is not liked by Swedes. The Confucius institutes were closed by Sweden, hardly any kids want to learn Mandarin in school anymore, there’s countless of articles in the media almost daily since many years about all the shit and threats China is doing. China and it’s embassy in Stockholm has threatened Swedish journalists and that is a matter of national security. The case of Gui Minhai (Chinese: 桂民海), the Chinese-born Swedish book publisher and writer who was kidnapped in Thailand by the CCP in 2015 and is kept in some dungeon in China, is an other huge beef Sweden has with China.
Even the police in the short clip were laughing because the Chinese people acted so ridiculous, the Chinese turned up the wrong day and the hotel or hostel had to call the police because they refused to leave.
Acting like a filthy Mongol barbarian is rewarded in China.
Yea not exaggerating at all.. I remember that incident very clearly and we had a good laugh about it for a month. Most people know about China, it's just that swedes are lazy and don't wanna be bothered by that dump. The incident was covered on svenska nyheter aswell where they ran an analysis on what was going on. Before that there were talks about whether we should include Taiwan on their maps or not and that was also a joke for a while. Stop generalizing.
The policemen in that clip should have just left the Chinese on the street and not give them any more attention.
Swedish people are so friendly. I used to date a Swedish lady. Even police officers are so friendly. Haha some stunning pretty hot female police officers in Sweden. You almost feel “lucky” to get handcuffed by hot Swedish police. 😂😂😂
You should travel to Taiwan. I find Taiwanese people are also very friendly. I think it is the long term bully and suppression by communist CCP that’s why rich Chinese are so rude. Because you need to be rude and bully to become rich in China. You only need to put up a fake smile to your boss to get promoted. Seriously it is a pyramid scam. You need to bully and push your competitors out to reach to the top of pyramid.
I was in the Louvre in 2019, and a bunch of Chinese Karens were simply running from on painting to another, taking selfies, without taking anything in. Not even reading the tiny plaque about the art piece, and all of a sudden. One of them farted, and this frenchman and I, just looked at one another horrified, and she just went about her way, after letting gas. It was a loud fart too, btw. Like, really loud.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Here in New Zealand, Chinese tourists are ubiquitous, talking unbearably loudly, shoving themselves and their cameras in front of everyone, no courtesy at all. In the blueberry picking farms, they have to put signs in Mandarin telling them not to stand on the toilet seat when they relieve themselves. I remember news articles about them getting off a tour bus in the middle of a neighbourhood, walking down a private driveway, and taking a big steaming dump in someone's garden bed. Unbelievable.
This was definitely something I experienced in China. Especially as a foreigner, they assume you have money...and certainly by comparison, even as a broke college student, I did...
I experienced a lot of friendly, and genuinely kind service, especially buying street food and produce. But the staggering poverty is everywhere.

What impossible don't you know our glorious leader xi jinpoo declared there was no poverty in China

This is why as Chinese-American, I always try to be as kind and polite as possible to anyone up front, so they don't assume I'm the same kind of rude, badly educated(in etiquette), loud and annoying tourist group that gives all Chinese people a bad rep.
Sorry to say it's a simular situation here in Australia with a lot of the Chinese nationals. I'm a tradie and fell in to working for a lot of Chinese, many of them were horrible and argue the price so I ended up just refusing the work, it wasn't worth the pain for me and my staff.

I have caught on multiple occasions while working in my field, Indians vandalizing their utility meters to get free services. It never works and they always talk down to you. I have ran across my fair share of nice ones though.
I'm Chinese but not from China, my great grandfather is and was told very humble, well mannered and treat people around very nice. He is middle class and migrated from China perhaps has changes his mindset of the culture here. Or prolly people 50 yrs ago was more kinder 🤷🏻♀️

You have solved a mystery that has haunted me for over a decade.
I live near Yellowstone national park, very popular among the chinese, and whenever we travel and stay at nearby hotels there inevitably are Chinese tourists staying as well. I have had chinese vacationers steal Belgian waffles many times at the free continental breakfasts. I had just assumed they're super rude people without western boundaries. I go through the trouble of filling a cup with batter and pouring it in the waffle iron only to have someone swoop in and take my waffle as the timer goes off, and before I can retrieve it. Has happened dozens of times and had me perplexed, it even became a joke among family and friends.
its fucking insane
Wow so did they see you pouring the syrup or whatever on your waffle.bwfore warming it up? That's wild
That clearly explains ' Vultures '
This makes me sad. I guess you have to stand there and guard your waffle, LOL. Have never heard of this before. Chinese people (both living in the U.S., in Taiwan, and PRC) have always been very decent and kind, in my experience.
Why didn't you knock it out of their hand? You could have then yelled, "Pick that up right now!" The look on their face would have been priceless!

I'm Kenyan, and we've had many Chinese relocate here to build these many projects they are doing all over Africa.
Talk of open discrimination!!
Some time back, some managers were deported after cases of violence against the African workers (captured on camera caning workers for being "late")...
Another establishment was closed temporarily after open cases of racism against any black customer were confirmed (no entry for blacks, literally in the middle of Nairobi).
Then some would walk around like we owe them a lap dance for getting noticed by them!!! They are rude and act like they own the president himself!! And treating their workers like the gum beneath their shoes!!
The nice ones are the "poor" ones, maybe because they understand how wrong this entitlement is.

those who gravitate towards spearheading a venture like those, yet treat you this bad, don't have anyone's best interests in mind. Many live in a bubble of self granted superiority, because of their political image. Unless it's their insecurities showing, they are just psychopaths, and you bet there are many there. It's perfect for a "small dictator", to go into uncharted territory like yours, and try to blow smoke up his superiors, slantering your people and giving blame, yet doing the worst he can on his own to others, pretending he's upholding a "you still at the bottom, you need to work up to me/us" mindset, when all he's doing is shifting blame and awarenenss from those dealing with him by trivializing and talking over problems and doubt about his fellow Chinese's conscience, it's a delusion you have to feed, like any.
A tactic which he'd have used everyday at home, and now he can try to be seen as a couragerous conqueror and "enterpreneur"- a-la any other dictator "trying to make a change", by strangling the others and their opportuinities by manipulation. Where we see inequality and bullying, asia sees incompetence and "ideas over people- by those who deserve to decide"- yet never living up to their own skeletons at home and the fears of their own culture, and of their family.
The let-up and kick they get from being powerful enables their deranged cruel behaviour, and the people take it out of fear, yet you can always talk these things out- ultimately, there are capable, empathetic people at most of the highest positions, and where there aren't, there also aren't any real issues, as the issue makers also don't have cover, and are protected mainly by their mouths. You can alwys push on them, and phase them out, and there is ultimately the ultimate limits of shit taking in the matter of public justice.
Here in Ireland one of the easiest ways to get chucked out of a restaurant or pub is by being rude to serving staff.
Same here in Finland. A 6 month or 12 month ban can also be given.

That explains a lot of my college years…I wondered a lot why the Chinese exchange students were such assholes to everyone around campus and intentionally broke things in front of janitorial staff. The Chinese students born in the US were very embarrassed because some people associated them with the exchange students.
Did u mean international students? The exchange students at my college were really great ppl, but the international students were jerks
12:07 I've been to a few different countries and I agree, it's the local humble people that showed me time and time again we are the same.
Actually that rings true in my experience. I took a Chinese friend to nice, hip restaurant in New York to show her an authentic local spot. She had a very expensive camera she wanted to show off, and started taking pics of people, got up and totally invaded their privacy. When a waitress politely told her to stop, she all but screamed at her, like yelling at a dog, insisting she can do what she wants. Pretty embarrassing! Luckily it was not a date. I was just helping a friend out, who had this person visiting from China…
Thats when its ok to berate them back in public.

I'm sure you can guess that during my 10 years living and working in China I came across multiple examples of this It is endemic. I also noticed that it was mostly practiced among the nouveau rich classes or by those who wished to give the impression that they had money. My students at the university were at first astounded when I explained that the two most important words in English are
" Please & Thankyou" as they are hardly used in Chinese and are especially missing when talking to someone considered inferior in status to one's self.

The supermarket where I lived once had corn on sale at a very low price. They had to have been losing money on it. When I walked into the supermarket, I immediately saw a large crowd of Chinese people surrounding a large box of corn. They were pealing the husks off and throwing them on the floor. That was so that the corn weighed less and they saved a few pennies. It was such a disgusting site, that I just left the supermarket and went to another one.
The price for that behavior in a western country is that everyone will see you as that outcast village idiot. And it's definitely not worth the price of a few corn husks. That a group of ordinary Chinese are shamelessly trying to save a few pennies in that way is scary.
@@larsjonasson2959 They were ripping through the corn like it had gold in it...

I was in Tokyo for the Golden Holiday Season. Before that, I was amazed with the level of hospitality, kindness and overall respect. People would literally gift me an umbrella when it rained and others would come run after me and hand it back, when I left it on the subway seat. All of that changed when the Chinese tourists arrived to celebrate for that one week. It was such a contrast. All of a sudden people bumping into me, cutting lines, shouting at waitresses. Puking on the train station on a regular basis. One would even try to start a fight with me because I jumped out of the way when they spit in front of me on the pedestrial. It was horrible. I made the same experience at the Milano fair event. They would push you aside, go into backstage areas as they pleased, threw all their trash on the ground and shamelesly took apart the kitchen furnitures on display. Then they took pictures of the insides, prosumably to copy the items for cheap. So rude. So rude.
Another story from my home town Berlin: I used to go to this Chinese restaurant late at night and sometimes it was full, sometimes empty. Nevertheless, the owner would always serve us gladly and kindly. They had this VIP section that was always empty. The kind of room where they have mirrors and those spinning dining tables for big bowls in the middle. Until one night there was Chinese costumers there. They would literally wreck up the place and throw at each other with drinks. Every 20 minutes or so you would hear a glass being thrown to the ground and through the slit of the sliding doors I could also see spitting on the floor going on. As the owner had always been kind to us, we asked if he needed any assistence throwing them out, to which he responded with a smile on his face and said: "Oh no, I don't mind the few bucks on glasses and the cleaning. They spend so much money on these stupidly overpriced bottles on the top shelf!" He meant the ones that no one ever orders, but you can always see 'em and wonder who the hell orders them. Moet Champagne, Henessy, Grey Goose Vodka, in those huge bottles. "They are buying it to impress each other and I make a fortune, so I really don't care."

We spent 3 months in Wuxi building a manufacturing facility. We stayed in the International Hotel which was very nice. We witnessed a HUGE range of difference in how people treated the staff based on their nationalities. We were always kind, patient, talked to the staff, joked with them and eventually we had a core group that would attend to us solely. When we left, we had the entire wait staff gather around us, shake our hands, take pictures, and wish us well and it wasn't because we did anything different, I believe it was because we treated them well and respected them. I was proud to leave a good impact as an American.

Glad they felt respected and appreciated that day because of you!
In fact, many dark sides are not shown in the official media. They are indeed better for foreign enterprises, because China’s labor is cheap, and they do not strike. Working overtime without extra pay is normal. Foreigners are comfortable in China for this reason, but if it is Chinese people working, the position is reversed.

When I arrived in China I would always be carefull when exiting a subway train (i'm a big guy and I am conscious of the space I use) but after a while I have had enough of rude people who would not let me go out before trying to enter the train so I started to just push back like a football player !

I worked on a constrction site for a luxury resort off the coast of Australia. The catering was provided as we couldn't leave the island, dozens of Chinese workers were on the project doing the dry-lining. They were ultimately forced to have to eat last because any time they would be allowed to go to the buffet before other workers they would pile their plates so high with food & then never even eat half of it & waste it for everyone else. They would spit indoors and throw litter where ever they fancied; on the floor or straight into the ocean. Once a sea turtle swam into the bay and whilst everyone else was looking on in amazement, the first thing the Chinese workers did was hurl large rocks at it to try and kill it. I honestly don't know how a vast proportion of such a huge race can be such disgraceful human beings.

I remember years ago I was on a flight to Korea on China Air and the flight attendant in my aisle was extremely hostile to me. I was really young and had never experienced treatment like that in America so I thought maybe it was something I did wrong. Whenever they would pass out the food or blankets that came with our flight I was the only one she skipped over. It was so bad that I couldn't hold back my tears. Eventually there was another passenger on the flight who noticed this as well so they got upset and complained on my behalf. Afterwards they sent a different flight attendant to serve me because the first one flat out refused.

My husband saw this behavior first-hand when he was a supervisor in a mfg plant. About 6 people on his crew were from China. The rest were from other countries. He realized early on that there seemed to be some kind of social pecking order in that group of Chinese men. If one of them had a "better" lunch than the self-appointed top man, he'd make them trade lunches. At a Christmas party where there was a spin the wheel for prizes game, everyone got a spin, and if liked their prize better, demanded that they give it to him. I learned from my aunt, who married a Chinese man, that this is how their culture is structured. Now, her husband wasn't like that having grown up in the USA, but several of his family members from China did still practice this social pecking order. Apparently, they did not have much status, so felt compelled to give in when demands were made of them. My aunt was fiercely independent and didn't tolerate it when approached. They took a lot of heat from that community because they "didn't know their place". My husband and I have known many immigrants from many countries, and a lot of them....even if this sort of culture existed in their previous country...once in the USA, everyone was on an even playing field socially.
Actually, this is pretty common behavior worldwide. Very few countries behave differently. South America, Africa, Asia, etc… oddly, this very same behavior is typical primate behavior. Chimps and other apes behave in a similar fashion. Not saying that these humans are chimps. But for the most part, a base level of respect in not a common cultural practice in nature or worldwide.
@@shaunpearce6846 In modern western culture it's not called a pecking order, but rather bullying, and everyone usually wants to see the bully eventually put in their place. Being the best in some way shouldn't mean hurting those around you to stay on top. It should be about merit and reciprocity, and then those lesser than you will treat you as a leader because they know you have their back, too. That way the rising tide lifts all the ships. You don't have to sink your neighbors to catch the wave.
As to in nature, I think you have a very over simplified understanding of animal hierarchies. Social animals are usually more collaborative than that, or else the ones they bullied eventually conspire against them.
Straight up gangster mentality, bully the weak but behave like a dog in front of the strong.

That broke my heart! I want to help her pick it up! Poor lady is trying to make a living. I experienced rude customers when I worked in retail, many moons ago, and it hardened me. If I saw this I would say something in her defense...I cannot stand bullies!
Sounds like Singapore
I have never met a China Chinese who speaks Japanese. The chinese people who speaks Japanese are in TAIWAN. In China, the Japanese culture is scorned upon. Why would they even learn the language? Those blue license plates are from Szechuan China right next to HongKong and is the most Capitalistic state in China. One could argue that it is Capitalism that has produced such horrible people because capitalism produces huge income gaps.
@@marvelcomiks8078 I’m pretty sure although any form of media and entertainment is censored a good bit just to say the least, during my experience in china, anime was and probably still is popular to some degree.
Not to mention, yes, bigotry and some form of xenophobia does affect stuff, japan’s stuff isn’t necessarily frowned on by all.
And yes, i am aware anime isn’t really the only thing japan has to offer, just using it as an example
Totally understand You Winston. Completely agree for every word You said🎯🎯🎯 Pozdrav from Serbia
my stepfather was a minor english nobleman.
he taught me many old school things , such as "respect those that serve you", "you cannot give orders until you know how to follow them", and my bench mark : "if you cannot perform a task, you have no right to direct others in such a task".
respect was all important. he took the classical view that we of the ruling class were protectors and 'fathers' of the lower orders.
he also taught me that middle class people were worthless by example, the nouveaux riches were invariably the worst behaved towards the working class, he found this reprehensible.
Your stepfather is/was a gentleman. A different breed that is disappearing these days. Just my grandfather. People like this understand what it is to be noble at heart.
The english nobles back in the days were apparently different tho, i mean how does that approach fit with the highland clearances and the land grabs of commumal lands in england and wales? English Gentry was also responsible for starting the farming with slaves in the southern US stuff right? Nobles everywhere called themselves bluebloods because they thought of them selves as better and a different breed than the commoners. But it is nice your stepfather seemingly tried to be better.
@@holgerlinke98 Most nobles were gentlemen and the US slave trade was mostly (99%)Africans selling other Africans into slavery, then 90% of the time shipped by Jewish traders to be sold in the US where a disproportionate number of those buying slaves were black themselves. Plus slavery in the US system only started when an indentured black tried to escape and the man who held his indentureship petitioned the courts to punish the man by making him his slave. That man was himself a black from Angola. Wrong on all counts by the whites, jews and blacks involved in the barbaric trade.
That's a respectful way of thinking. Too respectful. It limits what we might otherwise be able to help in for the sake of respecting another.
Yes my uncle always said, assess people by how they treat those in a weaker position than themselves. That is their true character.
This explains a lot. Having grown up in the San Francisco Bay Area, I observed this type of behavior from those who appeared to be first generation Chinese immigrants. The problem is, the rudeness is contagious and really makes hanging out in public around there a drag.
Where I grew up (near Beijing), it was the "cool" thing to do to be rude to servers. I remember going to restaurants and my grandparents pointing at servers "if you don't study you'll end up as one of them!" Not so proud to say, I was a "cool kid" by that definition. I was the rudest to servers for everyone who knows me, and servers didn't dare to do anything to irritate me. At that time, it gave me a taste of what a CCP official was like, and I fucking loved the feeling of privilege. Also, by being rude to servers, I felt as if I were better than them, and it eased my deepest fear that one day I would become one of them.
It's been 9 years since I left China. Took me at least 5 years living in the US to unlearn many bad habits that I picked up in mainland. The irony is that while living in China, I myself was a victim of abuse, and my experience of being abused fueled my desire to be an abuser.
thank you for sharing !
Yeah, pretty common that abusers were abused themselves.
The most important thing is to give people a chance to grow and better themselves.
Our upbringing may shape us but don't let it define you. It takes a real man to not only admit ones mistakes but also to improve upon oneself with the lessons learned.
no wonder taiwan is so abused by china
at least u can learn and change, i see many mainlanders in my city who behave horribly still
This video explains so much. I’ve been puzzled for years about various Chinese people I’ve known and it’s always seemed like they are from one of two completely different families. Either they treat underlings like absolute garbage, or they are the nicest people I know. I think now I understand why. Thanks for the insight.
