If it's about water conservation, then you can skip the beer. It reminds me of a while ago some Chinese entrepreneur thought selling bottled water from the Yangtze River was going to sell in the world when all you hear in the West is they think Chinese rivers are filled with pollution. Westerners and Chinese make the mistake thinking the other thinks just like them and that's where the failure in communication happens.
There was a woman named Rose Pak who was the voice of San Francisco's Chinatown. When animal rights activists were attacking Chinatown for the sale of live animals for food, her go to defense was it was cultural as if that was a universally seen excuse. There are plenty of things Americans hate that is "culturally" foreign to Americans. That doesn't deter them from wanting to stop it. I was involved in that battle and I wrote several editorials to an English language Asian-American newspaper that the animals rights activists were using to shame the Chinese community for this. They weren't nice and to the point of being racist so I returned it. I wrote what they did was just their racism and made points to how it was racist because they had no problem with Fisherman's Wharf throwing live crabs in vats of boiling water or with other ethnic communities in San Francisco selling the very same live animals for food.
The law they wanted only targeted Chinatown. I asked questions no one else was asking. I exposed a columnist, who was a self-proclaimed animal rights activist, for this very newspaper who was a supporter in banning the practice, where he would be a regular substitute for radio talk show hosts and then when someone famous, like comedian Joan Rivers, in the US makes fun of Filipinos eating dogs, he would be a bitch and go on these radio talk shows advocating eating dogs to be legalized. The editor of the newspaper called me and asked if this was true and I said yes and to ask him. After my editorial was published, the guy went off in an undisciplined rant in his column. Up until then, the animals rights activists had an exclusive narrative of the issue to the general public. Then a journalist for the San Francisco Chronicle confronted the leader of this movement and happened to ask him the very questions I was asking in my editorials because of course it was too beneath him to answer me. The guy lost it and spilled the beans that the Democratic establishment of San Francisco told him not to include any other communities in this law he was pushing because then he wouldn't get support. Soon after the push for this law ended. Can I take credit? I can't confirm it but the editor of the newspaper thinks it was because of me. The newspaper even had to inform me I got death threats and the newspaper's office would be fire bombed if they didn't cease publishing my editorials. And remember that's the side that believes in freedom of speech and people's right to an opinion...
And some Asians have told me I'm too aggressive... It worked because that's how you play the game. Rose Pak continually using the "It's cultural!" excuse didn't do anything except maybe enforce foreign beliefs that Chinese culture is backward and disgusting. Some Chinese I come across seek to have even racists like them. They think racists are just mistaken and if they just got to know Chinese, they'll like Chinese. That mentality only enforces racists' belief that they're superior and more important because they don't look to get along with other races because they're not worth it to them. While others seek peaceful co-existence with racists, I want them destroyed. That's how my writings come across because if they're seeking to punish people for practices they don't approve of and then someone like me exposes them as hypocrites for doing it themselves or not having a problem when someone else does it, what does that mean by their own logic? They should be punished in whatever manner they wanted to punish you for it. If they were about fairness and equality in the world, that's what's rightfully to be demanded. A lot of Americans don't see themselves as hypocrites because no one is telling them that. When China brought up Australia's war crimes in Afghanistan, they were incensed that China brought it up because... it was true. When the Chinese told Blinken in Alaska about the US's human rights crimes centered around the George Floyd murder by US police, Blinken had to bother calling the UN human rights council to send in a someone to investigate the US. That doesn't usually happen because no one in a position dares to call the US out on their hypocrisy right when they're guilty. Some Chinese think that's wrong to do because emotions are raw and it might get Americans angry. That's the perfect time to do it because they're in the spotlight already where every other time can ignore it.

Keep up the good work, slowly and steadily it will inspire others to do the same and call out the BS
Now, that's some quality sh*t, on par with the above Fox News.
Britain should seize Indo-Pacific moment to reclaim its global standing
- Collins Chong Yew Keat, University of Malaya
@Sardaukar20 Damn are Malaysians brainwashed, your Malaysian compatriot wrote this letter and sent it to the SCMP.
Hopefully this Collins Chong Yew Keat guy is not a professor at this university. Is he still hooked on opium from 200 years ago?
We got a lot bananas here.
