China Focus: 5,000-year-long Chinese civilization verified

China is very keen to promote the idea of Chinese racial and cultural superiority. They are significantly invested into the idea of parallel evolution - that humanity arose in China independent of Africa, so that they can be racially pure and separate from black people.

The West isn’t aware, by and large, of just how racist most of Asia is. Racism is endemic and cultural throughout China, India and SE Asia. It’s going to be interesting over the next thirty years or so as Asia opens up to the rest of the world culturally and we learn just how backwards their cultures are in so many respects.
