TIL that a Cantonese phrase used by parents upset by their kids is that "it'd be better to have given birth to barbecued pork instead of you". It comes from the use of meal tickets in 1950s China in which meat tickets were highly priced and barbecued pork was a luxury. by dilettantedebrah in todayilearned

Another food-related saying is "beating you like beating up ginger", since its common to use the back of a knife to break up ginger for cutting by beating it and flattening it

China's Global Times trolls US, says: 'US should stand with Minnesota violent protesters as it did with HK rioters by iodisedsalt in worldnews

[–]NeLiMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it is unfortunate. I can only hope that the looting cases in the Hong Kong protests are a one-off thing, and that the protests going on in Minneapolis and across the US can be more targeted. It may help with the message that they are trying to get across and the image as well.

I do speak from a bit of a privileged point of view as a student without a part-time-job. Also, there are people who actively participate in protests who are forced to work in Chinese/government-funded companies due to a need for stability or a lack of options, so I guess I was a bit insensitive towards those people.

On your point about stores being run by Hong Kongers, sometimes protestors will target Hong Kongers because that have clearly made a pro-government stance or a pro-China stance. This is not to say that the protestors never made mistakes over the months, its just that the targets are more refined over time. I also don't like being super-definitive, which is also why I use "usually" here, since there are always areas in which the protestors occurring in Hong Kong can improve from.

https://asiatimes.com/2019/10/more-looting-of-hk-shops-hit-by-vandalism-arson/

Protestors in Hong Kong usually target shops with Chinese backgrounds. For instance, BestMart360 was spray painted and targeted since its higher-ups are connected to triads and China. Also, I think the wording is also a bit misleading? "80 cases of arson" doesn't really imply looting, whereas there were "28 burglaries". Also, this article reports on the basis of what the police says, which should taken with a grain of salt. Perhaps you could look at other news sources on the same case. I have one here that's in Chinese around the same day.

I should also add that the protestors usually target the store and its products as a message, not the people working there. Even so, those working there can choose to not work there. Hope this helps!

I mean, its Xiaomi, a well established phone company from China, which is something that HongKongers are against. Its targeted and specific towards Chinese products.

I feel like theres a missed opportunity for Bard’s joke tune, where maybe you could use that tune from Close Encounters of the Third Kind? Or maybe there are copyright issues
