then you must be spending majority of time confronting chinese everywhere, consequently trashing your own travel. i just ignore unless they affect me directly.
Well, I don't usually stay at resorts where there are trashy tourists. But I do inconvenience myself when Chinese behave like assholes at the airport or on airplanes or on streets, both in HK and abroad. Can't stand those hysterical women who scream around at 110db each time they don't get what they want.
i stayed at an expensive above-water cottage in maldives and guess what, a chinese group gathered next door at 11pm and started their enjoyment, which totally trashed my enjoyment..called the reception multiple times but took a long while to have it fixed
Those kind of experiences are shared in this region every single day. Oh well,...there is a reason I don't share any good locations and experiences when traveling in Japan (have family there and am there 4 times a year and lived there for over 10). I happily let the Chinese tourists stay at the few run down hot springs and inns. Every Japanese stays far away from those places and so do I. But should Chinese tour groups dare to try other places I have often witnessed that they are made felt very poorly by Japanese,and that for good reason.
When even the kindest people on earth lose their shit over misbehaving Chinese then I think there is a lot of truth to the accusations:
And here a few more tasty examples:

Let me put my two cents in here. As someone who has done business with China for about 13 years and in academic setting has taught classes with majority chinese students this is what I found:
1. Most will never accept responsibility for something they did wrong and provide any excuse or lie to deny responsibility (business). There is this air of superiority which I love in Bruce Lee but hate in my everyday dealings.
2. There is a sense of entitlement because most tourist and students who go overseas are wealthier than most nowadays (or relatively so) and you get that entitlement.
3. They treat everything like a Chinatown market where you are supposed to fight and haggle over prices for everything. So even in business and in university they feel they can just debate and argue rather than accept responsibility or the price/grade they are given. the put more effort into arguing for the higher grade then they will in actually studying.
4. Current crop of younger business people and students studying abroad are not the finest as before and many just want the reward (tourism or degree) with minimal work or effort.
5.. Newer generation does not have same work ethic and drive as our generation and it is reflecting on the wealthy ones that can travel to U.S. for school or anywhere for tourism.
6. Finally there is little to no respect for personal space. If they are walking 3 or 4 in a group in the middle of the sidewalk, they will not yield or turn off if you are coming. they will literally walk into you so long as you move and not them. They just walk like they own all the space and in lines they will stand right behind you almost touching you even when there is room to be normally spaced.
7. They don't have the forced politeness of the Japanese. They basically have no filter that alerts them when they are being rude/disrespectful at times and say whatever or treat you in whatever way. the language also is more direct and abrupt then SPanish or Japanese (i have studied all 3) and it conveys in the manner they interact with people. (This does not apply to the 3 billion all living there but a growing part of the popualtion).
Any way just some fun facts from personal business and social interactions/observations over the years. I noticed this change more and more in last 5 to 10 years.

I see the new method of dealing with ass rapings in a thread is to talk about absolutely unrelated issues to the original thread topic. @GRULSTMRNN @blueraincap
