- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

There's a pretty clear delineation from racism and ethnic prejudice. One is a classification system used to loosely categorize people by general region and skin tone. The other is actually based on ethnic groups, and tends to actually be based on historical context.
Defined under the social construct of racism, a Han Chinese person and a Manchurian are the same "race", they're just Asian or "yellow".
Ethnic prejudice is often just as bad as racism, but is generally based on actual historical context instead of a defunct "science", that was only created to justify slavery.
Lol, you do realize that you are the one demanding the globe to view ethnic conflict through the lens of race "science "?
Ok but seems like a distinction without a difference. Neither racism, nor ethnic racism, have anything to do with video games.
You heard him as an Asian he can't be racist to other Asians... It's hard for our western minds to comprehend. 😆 This fucking guy.
Is it so hard for you to understand that racial science was never established as an inherent truth in most of the world? That it's only the west who utilize the word Asian to describe the majority of the world's population.
Ethnic and religious conflict, and nationalism lead different groups into the same type of ethnic prejudices, but that is inherently different from racism within the study of social sciences.
