RE: F*** Off Foreigners (Chinese Rap Video) - REACTION
Sure, there really are some pretty idiotic stupid foreigners in China, but that track didn't come across very well at all; despite one of my Chinese friends insisting that the lyrics were greatly misunderstood.
He also seems to begrudge former English teachers becoming entrepreneurs in China. There's a fair few foreigners in Chengdu that fit into category, it's a city that really to attract the creative types; there's said to be some people living there who came over as lost backpackers and ended up staying for over 10 years.
This is bizarre because if someone was indeed teaching English in China simply due to a lack of other opportunities back home (which sadly, happens), then surely they should be applauded for following a path of self-improvement and creating new opportunities for themselves and others?
Of course, people like this Fat Shady guy seem to believe that when a foreigner enjoys any real degree of success in China, it will have been without any doubt the result of exploitation or stealing something from the Chinese people. The fact that many Chinese people no longer tend to feel inferior at the side of foreigners and feel no need to place novelty value upon them is a good thing; but this outburst of anger and frustration towards foreigners is a step in the wrong direction.
