You'd most likely lose that bet telling the difference between a Han Chinese and Pure Korean, Japanese or else is not that difficult..but its not their appearance that I am bugged about, its the behavior.
Jap's= pissed off eyes SK/NK= fish eyes Viet cong= slant eyed/stretched eyes China= olive eyes in places/round in others Theres many more, Depending on reigion.
I can confirm that chinese of about my age regularly (or did when I was about 4, maybe they're better now, and a bit more with the times) spit blood and/or teeth into the sink, and then may or may not bother to even turn on the water. But the entire state of china is to be blamed on mao tse tung, the biggest fucker in world history. The party still has a stranglehold, but hopefully modernity will loosen it, eventually, and people will notice that the politburo wears no clothes, and not be too terrified to act on it. Ehh, the whole thing is sad.
I like the Chinese. They are all very funny characters and travel here in search of castles and and old forts. They try and communicate and are never seem to be rude. Political agendas I do not know about nor do their politics seem to affect or influence me in any way so I do not have a problem there either.
Have you been to China? I would suppose the tourists you are talking about are the filthy rich Chinese who more or less have been exposed to the rest of the world. Most Chinese cannot afford to travel abroad even to neighboring Asian countries, let alone to Europe or NA. Unfortunately their politics do influence me as I have to be in China often due to my job.
I agree. Mao fucked it all up, he should have been hanged with all the other Nazi criminals. But anyway he couldn't have done it alone, so the people who supported him and still support the communist party are also at fault..and a lot of Chinese do "respect" their party.
