I’m originally from the UK but I’m now in Canada and I hover around some groups of people from the UK online and in person and I swear the Brits are the most whiny people to ever move anywhere. These people genuinely move to places and expect it to be exactly like the UK and when it’s not they shit on the country. Idk if it’s some leftover colonial mindset or something that hasn’t been removed from their psyche?
I’ve heard people complain that there’s no British cream (like the standard whipping cream which exists but is called something different) in stores, British bread, British seasonings, very specific type of curry called the brimingham balti which I don’t think I’ve seen outside of northern England. Amongst many other things and it’s absolutely mind blowing
Genuinely makes me embarassed to be in anyway related to these people. Anyone else get absolutely sick of your old countries people?
Simple, you only browse expat forums for whites in nonwhite countries.
Where I’m from, UK. Black and Muslim communities will work together to push for more rights and better treatment. But white people in Asia don’t do this.
But like you’ve said, you’re comparing how whites in asia act online to how blacks and muslims act in public (specifically when they’re organizing and campaigning for more rights and better treatment)
Try browsing chinese-language subreddits sometime, most of their vitriol is directed at other Chinese based on class, regional discrimination, immigration status, or political differences.
Or heck, even videos of the fights that have broken out between Hong Kong and mainland students in western campuses and cities
What rights and good treatment are white people in Asia missing?
