  • thoughts about nationalism/racism in novels

Sythcake corruption is real in all Nations. However, Chinese will always choose to side their own despite if it's a heinous criminal or a saint. I kinda salute them with this kind of trait, others will sell out their countrymen just to look cool.

      Soyboy if you ain't white, you ain't right. Amirite? This perception of beauty is dominant to Asian countries, even if the face seems bland, as long as the skin color is on the fairer side it will be perceived as beautiful. But this only proves the shallowness of a man, it doesn't really fall to the topic of racism. Lel.

          Soyboy Yeah..... I agree that Indians have their racist as well, but you will only find those in the illiterate people living in rural area and towards the people from Nigeria.
          The biggest problem here is the caste system not racism, but the media and entertainment agencies don't support it, nor will you find a writer who do the same. If anyone supports these kind of thinking and holds a position of power or is famous in someway, the media will tear it apart.

          bachingchung The novels I was talking about, are based in the world that used to be our world previously..... the countries ,landmarks etc the same.

          bachingchung YOu do know the same thing happened with Nazis, they didn't questioned their leaders... they just followed and supported them... and look where we are.

          bachingchung I thought it was true only in India...... well that show the media has changed us, though my preference has now become dark skin for the last few years, but watching some ads in my earlier days, I did feel the fairer people were more beautiful(Then I see some unhygenic ones....)

          Sythcake Nah!! here you are wrong... whenever there are novels with other countries in the.... you will always find them evil and the chinese government super genius, smart and supportive even if they don't like the MC..... go and read "Am I God"

                      UnhingedTaboo nah it's true in every nation in Asia. China, Japan, Korea etc. The main reason is, it's usually perceived as a symbol of wealth, coz' you don't do hard labor. I don't discriminate though, the aforementioned countries' women usually have petite bodies and plump assets so I don't really mind. Japanese Ganguro girls' well toned skin is really hot. insert ahegao face

                          UnhingedTaboo you will only find those in the illiterate people living in rural area and towards the people from Nigeria.

                          I'd disagree somewhat. It's not directed at just some 'Africans', nor is it limited to illiterate people living in rural areas. It is really prevalent among even the university students that never confronted the things they'd been taught by the family and the society over decades. And it's not hard to test. Just keep the idea in your mind next time you go about your life, you'll find out. It's not always the biggest and most overt things that hurt us. And because people don't think it that big of a problem makes the problem this problematic. You can never confront a problem if people don't see it as a problem.

                              Soyboy Then as I said, if it's subtle... then OK..... even I may have show racism even without knowing it, as the definition of racism of people is different for different people.

                              Just a shot story though......... my paternal uncle(Chacha) was slapped by a Rajput(of a certain village) for just following the orders and showing impartiality toward him... do you know what happened??
                              That Rajput asshole is in jail for the next 6 months!!

                              Edit: That rajput was an illiterate, wasting away what he inherited from his parents...!!

                                  Honestly, I don't really care about it that much unless it gets totally out of hand. Pretty much any Hollywood movie is filled with western propaganda and American elitism. It's not like they're doing it to stroke their own dicks, it's just that it's what resonates the most with their target audience. It's the same with webnovels, just a different country and culture.

                                  Nationalism and racism is a big turn off for me when in comes to novels, especially when it is a massive amount that will drag the novel and change the character. Just little bits is fine but when shit hits the fan, it's discriminating and purely disgusting. Legit, if you've read Shura's wrath over 400 chapters, you will understand what I mean.

                                  Nationalism and racism is just wish fulfillment for these authors, it's absolutely horrendous.

                                  So if you wanna read good novels, get rid of Shura's wrath from your list cause that novel will piss you off.

                                  I am afraid that the new batch of novels in 2018 will bring racist comments towards USA, trump in particular😂😂
                                  Racism towards Japan also remains evergreen

                                    bachingchung No, there are companies which bottle air from Canada & others to sell in China. One such company, Vitality Air, is even expanding to other countries.

                                        Pizza there's no way for an ordinary bottle to handle compressed oxygen. In fact, that's really dangerous, that's too volatile to be sold commercially.
