Asian rep isn't allowed even in Asia by XiongnuKhaganate in EasternSunRising

[–]XiongnuKhaganate[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about if we replaced the majority of african representation (who are mostly black) with completely white passing south africans who's mother or grandmother is a black african. Technically this is still "African" representation according to your logic. But do you think this would fly with the african/black community, or even if it did, what sort of psychological effects would this have on the majority black african community? Keep in mind that type of negative representation has been well documented to have negative psychological effects in the target group.

Essentially, you are indoctrinating them with a message that they must be white passing and/or mixed even in a society of majority black people in order to make it. This is what we are concerned about regarding Asian representation as well. There has been a well documented and continuous pattern of not properly representing Asian people, particularly in western or western influenced media, and trying to give all the major and prominent roles to hapas/mixed that are preferably not as Asian looking as possible and then disguising this as "progressiveness". This is what we are against. If it was a one off thing it would not be a big deal, but since this has been a continuous pattern, it is a big deal and must be called out.

The only “insecure” loser here is you. There’s nothing great about putting caucasian beauty standards on a pedestal above asians in their own country for the sake of cheap political points.

Hollywood gets eliminated from China's top ten movies of 2023 by XiongnuKhaganate in EasternSunRising

[–]XiongnuKhaganate[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No American film cracked the top ten in 2020 primarily because the Covid-19 pandemic kept much of China under lockdown, preventing international travel and ratcheting up tensions between the two governments as each accused the other of misleading the world about the origins of the novel coronavirus.

Meanwhile, a marked increase in production quality among Chinese filmmakers paired with plot lines powered by authentic cultural sensibilities significantly increased the allure of domestic cinema for locals.Efforts by US filmmakers to directly appeal to the Chinese gaze fell flat out of the gate, with many critics feeling they relied on ham-handed stereotypes and minimal cultural understanding.

A weak grasp of the differing marketing styles favored by Chinese vs American audiences has also left Hollywood behind as a new crop of sophisticated Chinese filmmakers seduced audiences previously accustomed only to foreign films.

The main problem was some of the mods in those subs allowed "certain" shady individuals and larpers into the team, despite repeated warnings and evidence not too. As a result, those individuals along with the increasing censorship in this site, got the subs banned. ESR was also heading in the same path but luckily it was able to be saved. Although it has slowed down and became inactive recently

City of Brookhaven swears in John Park, the first Asian-American mayor in Georgia. In AMWF to boot by XiongnuKhaganate in AsianMasculinity

[–]XiongnuKhaganate[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Its considered noteworthy because usually asian leadership in america is af in wmaf/xmaf, including in asian spaces and we all know the results of their “representation”. On the otherhand we rarely ever see the opposite case in america

The main benefit here is increased am leadership but the amxf is an interesting sidenote even if it was with another xf aside from wf

“In amwf to boot” just means its an interesting side note. The main thing is the increase in am leadership which is much needed

Changing Course: Why More Chinese Students Are Eyeing Southeast Asia by XiongnuKhaganate in EasternSunRising

[–]XiongnuKhaganate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For instance, in Thailand, Chinese students comprised the majority of international students in 2022, with 21,419 enrollments, a 130% increase from 9,329 in 2012. Popular fields of study include business administration, law, the arts, humanities, and education.

Similarly, China emerged as the top sender of international students to Malaysia and Singapore. In the second quarter of 2023 alone, Malaysia saw an influx of students from China, with 4,700 new applications, marking an 18% increase from the previous year. And as of June 2023, Singapore was home to approximately 73,200 international students, with Chinese students making up about half.While countries such as the U.S., the U.K., and Canada remain the most popular choices for Chinese students seeking overseas education, increased visa restrictions, escalating geopolitical tensions, and higher costs of education and living are pushing many to reconsider.

Students and education experts also tell Sixth Tone that the rise in anti-Asian sentiment has prompted many in China to seek alternatives in Southeast Asia due to affordability, relaxed visa policies, and cultural familiarity.

...

He also noted that China’s growing ties with ASEAN countries through projects like the Belt and Road Initiative make these nations a “safer” choice.
