Yes, If your white male in East Asia, you will have a much easier life then your native friends. Much easier. I guess that's why I see bunch of white people praticing Eastern spirituality, Buddhism like David Carradine and some sh*t.. East Asians don't really practice much spirituality at all for real. Even if you have visited churches and temples in Korea, all those motherf*ckers care is about money! Money Money Money! Spirituality is just a show.Lucas88 wrote: ↑March 2nd, 2023, 2:47 pmYes, Asians are more lenient towards White foreigners. I lived in Japan in the early 2010s and that was exactly what I experienced. White foreigners who live in Japan are exempt from the strict rules and minutiae of Japanese social etiquette. They are simply not held to the same standards as Japanese and other Asian people and therefore enjoy certain privileges and freedoms within Japanese society.Natural_Born_Cynic wrote: ↑March 2nd, 2023, 10:49 amWell, everything is relative. If your not a native born Asian, you will never know. That's what I have experienced so far.
Asians maybe more lenient towards white foreigners but they are vicious towards each other and to the race they deemed "inferior" to them.
I am sorry, that's the truth whether you like it or not.
I don't hate East Asians but I don't particularly like them either. East Asians are perhaps the race with which I resonate the least. They just have a really alien vibe and strike me as cold, robotic and even NPC-like. They're the exact opposite of Mediterranean and Latin people with their passionate and soulful nature and their vivacious and free-spirited societies. I find it extremely difficult to relate to East Asian people and especially the Japanese. It's as though there's just no feeling between us and the interaction goes nowhere. I prefer most other races.
There are of course exceptions. I really get along with my Chinese acupuncturist Dr. Chen who's really awesome and with whom I have deep and intellectually stimulating conversations. We've even had conversations about the New World Order and the Jews!
As for the different Asian nationalities, I actually prefer the Chinese over the Japanese, even though this is certainly a minority opinion. Even though the Chinese have a reputation for being greedy and unscrupulous (and @MarcosZeitola believes that they are complete savages), they have a much more direct communication style and are easier to talk to while the Japanese have an indirect communication style and are usually totally fake since fakeness is baked into their social culture with the concept of honne and tatemae 本音建前. I also have admiration for certain aspects of ancient Chinese culture such as Qi Kung and Traditional Chinese Medicine. And, of course, hanzi 漢字 too which have their origin in China.
I tend to like Southeast Asians a lot more than East Asians. Southeast Asians are a completely different entity. They are more warm-blooded and passionate and more like Latinos in some regards. I have a positive view of Thais, Filipinos and Vietnamese.
Koreans are especially vicious, judgmental, and unforgiving towards each other. That's why even Koreans in K-town say "Don't trust them other Koreans over there because they are going to scam you." If your a native Korean living in Korea, you better have lot of money, be a good fighter (both physically and mentally), be very cunning, and be 6ft tall. A life of a native Korean is constant grinding and grueling competition from birth to death. Starting to kindergarten to the day that you hit six feet under. It's a very grim and deadly proposition if your born in S.Korea.
Koreans treat other Koreans like sh*t but the South East Asians are treated much worst, no less than dogs.
