RACIAL DISCRIMINATION OR CULTURAL CLASH? (final version, with politics and religion addressed)
 
It's a thin line between racial discrimination and cultural clash.  And it's a hard choice between racism and morality.  When the bleeding-hearts of the Western liberals lump everything into the simplistic notion of human rights, they are secretively trashing morality and culture in favor of the rules of the jungle.  Such rules naturally lead to the justification of arms buildup to protect the associated rights of freedom, democracy, equality, religion and all the other survival tools for a predatory society.

Culturally oriented people, like the Chinese and Muslims, are often demonized for being racists while defending their culture.  This distraction often provides a free pass for the supremacists' attitudes of the West to run amok in perpetrating camouflaged discrimination and stereotyping.  Adding in the self-righteousness of the Christians, tactically poised behind superior weaponry and over hijacked morality, the culturalists have become easy preys in both the verbal and killing wars.

This is one area in the struggle between the East and the West that the East must cut its losses.  And the East must  be ready to pay a high price.  The goal should be, as the Chinese saying goes, doing everything just to save the roots.

The Easterners should first admit that they are racists.  This is necessary to preserve, at all cost, their root culture of ancestral lineage.  And it comes in handy when defending against the liberal scum culture of the West, that has been the roots of many cultural clashes around the world that were conveniently condemned as racial discriminations or ethnic conflicts.  Now, the infamous term, Chinese characteristics, should mean just exactly that China is against human rights, democracy, freedom, equality and religion.  When playing hardball, humility only buys you hypocrisy.

Also, the Easterners should make clear to the West that they would always choose culture over progress.  This should be demonstrated first through deemphasizing the capitalistic system, and finally volunteering a unilateral demilitarization.  But the whole strategy does not have to be an all pain and no gain proposition.  Such a scorch-earth retreat would unite people of a common culture.  This provides a united front for culturalists against the materialists.  Now, we have, at least, a 50-50 chance of saving the world.

Chinese culture revolves around breeding.  But it's more important for us humans to learn there is really no such thing as being either a superior or a inferior breed, or a race, or even a species for that matter.  There is something here we could learn from our four-legged best friends.  Dogs owe their survival to breeding, but no one can say which breed is superior.  And each breed seems to love being itself best.

The world has overreacted to maddog Hitler's racist overkill.  The real problem is the predatory nature of the modern society, which makes it much easier to spot a racist than an oppressor.  Expecting everybody to take sides, of either on that of the liberal scums or, the secret symbol of ultra-conservativism, Hitler, is giving us all a distorted perspective of the human experience.

The two-party system in Amercan democracy is an effective machine for distortion.  First, it's not "party", but "partying".  The rich and powerful are having themselves a ball in which they divide up the turf over the mass of little people who have either the word "liberal" or "conservative" branded on their foreheads through saturation propagandaing.  Just looking at the kind of leaders of these partying parties would give you an idea of how distorted the situation is.  The last big party they called elecltion had an alcoholic-turned-Christian with a record losing-record in business ventures, pitting against a Jew-turned-Catholic gigolo with a peace record that matches his war record.  How in hell are their followers
even going to have time noticing anything as trivial as races and cultures? 

Politics is a santuary for human trash.

While politics brand the head, religion brands the heart.  And whereas politicians only talk the talk, religionists walk and walk.  We are all used to politicians' broken promises, but no one can predict what a religionist going to do next.  This happens because he follows the will of somebody named God.
  An unafflicted person may laugh at politicians, but he could only pray for mercy with the religionists.    When religious superstition takes hold of our lives, we may all go to heaven after death, but hell can break loose when we are alive.

Religion gives rights to its faithfuls to tell God to tell them what to do.

Since for one race to like another, it must like itself first.  So, racial rivalry would always exist.  This is healthy as long as culture steps in to prevent discrimination.  Being genetic, differences in racial favorites, such as emotion, intelligence and fun, is Nature's way.  Accepting this fact forms the basis of a harmonious society.  Harmony must allow for accommodating such Nature's inevitables as racism, sexism and classism.  Humans may be the top dog amount living things, but we are still only guests to Nature.

Harmony and peace, not justice and equality, should be the goal.   Justice and equality suggest a struggle. The new message to mankind should be that the struggle is over. The struggle is a dead end. A blind alley. A deception. It leads to never ending struggles. It leads to discontent toward one's fellow men and one's own existence.

Discrimination and blacks seem to come in the same thought.  Historical mistreatment of the blacks is a curse on humanity that people of the world must all share.  A century of discrimination needs time to heal.  China has tried, and suffered, but failed, yet persisted, in helping with this healing process.  Certain amount of culture pre-education is probably preferred over reeducation in many of the incidents in China regarding the black foreign students.

To avoid any unnecessary racial discrimination, China needs to set up an equivalent TOEFL on culture for foreign students wishing to enter Chinese universities.  The least the students need to be tested is the knowledge of the 100 culturally prioritized Chinese characters in the proposed, yet still defunct, universal language.  Anyway, one big obstacle to cultural understanding in the world is the Westerners' persistently unabashed ignorance of the Chinese language.

If there is such a thing as disposable culture, the West has it.  The Westerners have done their part in causing it all on this matter of the blacks and need to just keep their mouths shut whatever the evidences on its many unfortunate consequences.  The world needs to catch its breath.  The Westerners really should let the blacks' wound heal first, before start on the muslims.

In dealing with races and culture, the world has no choice but to realize that avoiding the issues is a road to hell.  Just look what happened when America led Britain and Israel to walk out the UN's World Conference Against Racism one weeks before 911.  And now they are telling us it's a matter of not whether, but when.
