I have been a food blogger for a little over a year now. I have a whole lot of great recipes that I try to share with you, but today, I want to share with you a recipe I recently got from shanghai daily.
Shanghai daily is a culinary site that focuses on Chinese Cuisine in general and the recipes used in it. The site is definitely not a fan of the Chinese government, so this recipe is probably going to be viewed by many as a little racist. I’m not sure what’s going on here, but I think it’s because the author is Chinese.
What I found really interesting (and quite disturbing) about the article is that it uses the word “Chinese” throughout the article, but only in the last three sentences, and only one of those sentences. So it’s clear that the author is not, in fact, Chinese. But in the process, the author also uses a number of other words that may be considered racist in a western context, like “Chinese culture”.
This article is an example of the “you can’t say racist things in a western context” problem. It’s so obvious that the author is not Chinese that it’s easy to miss what it really is. For the record, I’m not sure why anyone would be offended at the use of the word Chinese, but I’m not going to argue about it.
The author is using the word ‘Chinese’ with the intent of being racist. Not racist in the sense that it has racist connotations, but racist in the sense that it is used to describe a group of people that are not actually Chinese. However, the word itself is used without any racist connotations, and it is used by others who have the same intent. This is why its easy to overlook the racist connotations.
I’ve seen Chinese written as “shanghai” with the intent to be racist or not, and I’ve seen it written with the intent to not be racist, but I’ve never seen it written in any other form other than that. The term is used by other people who have the same intent as it is used by the author, so the author writing this doesn’t even realize he is doing something racist.
So shanghai daily is the slang term for a conga line for racist white hipsters in a racist way.
I read that term and thought to myself, “well, what the hell?” Then I went to the link and realized that this is the worst kind of racist in this world.I read the article to see the comments, and some people seem to think that someone who calls themselves a racist isnt really a racist. As it turns out, this is the case.
The article claims that the term shanghai daily was coined by a black girl in New York when she visited a bar called shanghai. The description of this place was pretty accurate. In fact it was also called “Shanghai” for a reason. This is also where I found my first reference to the term “white hipster” by a member of the white hipster community.
For many people of course, I have never been called a white hipster. But when I was a kid I was pretty sure I was, and I also had a few other close friends that were white hipsters. But I really have no idea about the term itself. I think it means the same thing as hipster.
