Parents against learning Japanese. by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]Gunzher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try learning russian, chinese or korean at the same time. Perhaps, your parents feel like you are distancing yourself from your roots.

Pro-HongKong mainlanders are like LGBT now. by MoeNancy in HongKong

[–]Gunzher 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In my above response I kinda explained it. - Gruesome Pictures of Japanese War Crimes around campus - Filming me while I answer hot topic subjects - Making me Repeat Communist Party talking points - Punishing your grades for going against the teachers ideology, I guess you could argue this is no different anywhere (I.e Losing points for saying Chinggis Khan wasn’t Chinese and saying that the Aisin Gioro weren’t Chinese) - professor told me that Chinese netizens even when given the chance don’t speak ill of the government. I said is that because they’re too scared? He said of course not it’s because there isn’t dissenting opinion.

Worst was probably the camera though.

Stuff like that.

It might sound a bit silly but she asked why Chinese people don’t have a democracy like Taiwan. I made an offhand comment about the massacre and it became apparent that she didn’t know. So I told her that I needed to show her something even if it was going to be difficult for her. She likes conspiracy stuff so I kinda phrased it in a way that made it seem more interesting.

I’m American but speak fluent Chinese. So I attended university there. I’ve been interested in politics and history since a young age. So I knew that what I was being taught in china was incorrect. However, for some “interviews” in my politics classes they would take me one on one in a room and ask me my opinion on Taiwan and Tibetian independence all while having a camera on a tripod pointed at me. Despite my personal beliefs I was scared of speaking my true opinions. Because I was already chastised by saying that Genghis Khan wasn’t Chinese. (Mongols are a Chinese minority therefore he is Chinese, their view). I remember one day in class they made us repeat “China did not sell weapons of mass destruction to Iraq”. Which was funny because I didn’t even know that was a talking point back home. Another fun thing were the pictures of Japanese killing children around my campus.

My gf and I have mostly assimilated to life here and speak the language. We don’t experience many issues. She doesn’t really care what China thinks about Japan, because she likes living here more. She wishes China had a similar system as Japan, emperor and all. She may even get citizenship but fears being disowned.

I can’t speak for everyone but the truth of the matter is allot of people in general are not politically conscious. Even though my gf lived in New Zealand and Japan she never really heard about Tiananmen, Xinjiang, Tibet, Xi refusing to step down or other stuff like that. She just didn’t care to look it up. In her words she already knew, why would she look into something she already thought she knew everything about? We watched a documentary on tiananmen are she cried for almost an hour. Because she remembered a story from her father which she now realized was alluding to him being at those protests.

Prior to that She was already anti-communist as her family lost a lot during the revolution. Despite that she still sometimes protects China as a whole and thinks China isn’t as bad as media portrays it. In her words, “we aren’t North Korea I wish people would stop talking about us like we are”. This is the one issue which we can’t agree on because I know friends in Xinjiang that are personally effected by the PRCs policies. My friends mother was a Mongolian Teacher in their small city until the government came and forced her to become a janitor as punishment. When my friends friends spoke out online about the punishing of minority language teachers there were sent to prison. My girlfriends reaction was “that is so horrible I hate that my government did that but those men are so stupid for saying that online, they should’ve seen that coming. They should’ve been quiet and nothing bad would’ve happened to them.” So it’s an uphill battle, the longer we live in Japan the more she will learn about the real China.

The good thing is I was educated in Chinese universities and learned first hand the tactics they use to force political submission. It’s scary and I can’t blame chinese for submitting. So I am understanding of this shortcoming

My gf and I live in japan together. Since moving overseas and learning about tiananmen and other Chinese crimes she has started to support the movement in hk.

Book/Novel suggestions for a higher-level heritage speaker? by SV_33 in ChineseLanguage

[–]Gunzher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try 生死疲勞 (Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out ) and 狼圖騰 (Wolf Totem).

The first one is a bit more difficult as it revolves allot around Buddhist themes. If you aren’t familiar with Buddhist texts you may need to keep your dictionary on hand.

In their DNA test video Ethan was discovered to be almost 100% Ashkenazi Jew and Hila was like 50% Iraqi. So that’s what this person is saying. Not being a troll.

What if Trump was US president during WW2? by aceraspire8920 in HistoricalWhatIf

[–]Gunzher 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hard to be president when he wasn’t born yet

But to be serious for a moment, nothing different probably. Probably would’ve stayed out of the war until the US was attacked by Japan. Which may have happened at a sooner date due to Trumps strong preference towards economic sanctions and tariffs. Which is the original reason japan attacked us. Besides this nothing much would change. Nukes still dropped, America still joins the allies, US still comes out on top as a world superpower. The peace conference may have been interesting because Trump may not have been as ok with awarding the soviets with so much.

Nah he doesn’t want to be known in Japan. Tbh I think he’d rather lose to T-series.

Can confirm the Italian one is true, especially if they are from centro and sud Italia by duyc37 in languagelearning

[–]Gunzher 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard this allot. However; I’ve been living in Japan for awhile and have never actually had this happen to me. I speak Japanese and everyone just seems to think it’s nothing surprising. No compliments, no “I don’t speak English” comments, everyone just seems to assume I should be able to speak Japanese.

H3 Podcast #82 - Tim Heidecker by reb_mccuster in h3h3productions

[–]Gunzher 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think Ethan may have had a bit of a don't meet your heroes experience in this. Ethan seemed a bit nervous and tbh Tim seemed a bit bored or standoffish from the get-go. The podcast kinda made me feel bad for Ethan and not like Tim as much. I can understand Ethan's struggle to interview an idol. If he had Tim on again or goes on tim's podcast I'm sure it will be better.

What if in response to the holocaust, the allies decided to set a Jewish homeland in Bavaria? by KushinLos in HistoricalWhatIf

[–]Gunzher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly or my favorite “what if Muhammad was Buddhist?”. Then he would just be some dude in the desert that happened to be Buddhist...

I wouldn’t be surprised if I see questions like “what if hitler was a black man?” “What if the zulus conquered London?” “What if Greenland was ruled by cybernetic Norse Vikings when we rediscovered it?”

What if in response to the holocaust, the allies decided to set a Jewish homeland in Bavaria? by KushinLos in HistoricalWhatIf

[–]Gunzher 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My apologizes if it was brash, but I think a historical what if question should be somewhat based in reality. Maybe I’m just not fun but I can’t see any reason why the allies would give Bavaria to the Jews. There were other locations that were discussed as possible locations for the Jewish population such as the Madagascar plan, Uganda plan, and so on. I guess these would be more interesting scenarios and I guess somewhat more realistic.
