Funny enough, amongst the diaspora Chinese reactions to this whole XHS episode, Melissa Chen's isn't even the most indicative of how warped their mindset is since its the typical minstrel Asian ala Uncle Roger and Ken Jeong act we have been all too familiar with for the past 3 decades.Wow I had no idea that those bitches with Chinese surnames working for Western MSM can get this low...

The other end of the spectrum, is seeing numerous Chinese diaspora likening the app's name to "Mao's little redbook" and thus surprised at how "ostensibly Communist" the app is. The thing is, since my Chinese and understanding of modern Chinese history isn't the best, I too initially thought so as well until people rightly pointed out "little red book" was the English nickname given to a text that in the Chinese language was known as "Quotations from Chairman Mao" and nothing else. In fact, knowing the situation back then, literally calling such a sacred book something as diminutive as a "little red book" would have been a swift invitation to get your guts stomped out by the Red Guards. Point being, the app's name has nothing to do with that book.
I'm glad I learned of this. However, when it comes to most of these diaspora Chinese making these claims, their reaction to being corrected is to double down and even outright proclaim that they are more knowledgeable of Chinese history than most Chinese. Like not imply, outright say verhabitm, "Yes the app is based on that book, yes that's what the book was called, yes I know more about Chinese history than you!" Being racist to yourself to please White people is of course degrading, but it is behavior that could be logically explained. For a diaspora Chinese in an Anglo country, I don't where any of those lot come up with the cojones to think they're intellectually superior to those back in the motherland.
