Also, as for your friends in the hotel industry that say Chinese people stole items. I highly doubt that all of them, even more than a small minority of them did the same thing. However, because they look different than you and speak a different language, it becomes salacious and sensational to say "look at that entire group of people we are better than" based on the actions of a few. That's what disgusts me about the whole thing. White people do something immoral and the reaction is "oh that person must be mentally ill" or some other justification that contains the action to the individual. Not white? Oh the entire ethnicity must be inferior. It's nothing more than racism and you know it. Although I suppose there is nothing anyone can do about it as the pervasive primal human tribal mindset is still wired to gain acceptance into the in-group and ostracize the out-group.
