@roboluvsunicorn @ChrisRinvesting @chowtato Because foreigners still get called gweilo, heigui and the likes so you think it is normal in the same way a peasant from the 17th century elsewhere would see no issue calling any other ethnicity a slur

@ChrisRinvesting @roboluvsunicorn @chowtato He will defend that one too for sure, probably: “It is just a color description and 鬼 is tongue in cheek term of endearment”

It is like asking a 17th-century slaver if using the infamous n-word is bad

@chowtato @enne7499 The noodles are $2 worth, the marketing to make hipster NPC feel special and exotic on the other hand is quite well-done

@roboluvsunicorn @ChrisRinvesting @chowtato “laowai” is the equivalent of how Mexicans use “gringo”. Not exactly an insult but carries the idea of a naive bumbling imbecile who could not ever comprehend how things work around here, which usually is also accurate.

“waiguoren” is the neutral term

[554654 @GlidingMonkey]

@roboluvsunicorn @ChrisRinvesting @chowtato More like calling someone a “white devil”

@zmbnski @marclou Squatting is just about 1000x more widespread in China than Eastern Europe. Not to mention the specific squatting position differs. As for the guy, he is foreignclowning as we would call that

@szybszygradient @Girdriz @Yugopnik Taxes are low in Bulgaria especially because social security maxes out at ~$500/mo and income tax is flat. So the more you make, the more your total effective tax / social rate tends to 7.5-10%. To be compared against more than 60-70% in many EU countries for the same income type
