Africans and dark-skinned foreign workers have always been treated like shit in China. I know this because I always get mistaken as one whenever I'm there to visit family.

Just say you're not really a black person and that it's just blackface. Problem solved.
Fuck China

I don't even get the logic behind it. Are they trying to say that black people are more likely to get or have the virus?

That's a relevant question no matter when or what country you ask outside of Africa (and inside of Africa, looking at you SA).
It's not just South Africa, look at how Somalian refugees are treated in neighboring African countries. ICE-style raids and camps have been happening to Somali's for years. Rwandan genocide is another good example.

China, seeing the failures and evil going on in America, is racing to keep its "10 times worse than America" level up.

*deep sniff*

Yeah smells like racism.

Homogeneous countries usually have an issue with visible minorities.

It's not surprising, sadly.

This is the latest in a string of racist business practices targeting blacks during covid19
the only thing i've read about blacks and covid19 has been that blacks are more likely to be affected by quarantine than others (reported by various msm) and this. what string of racist businesses are you talking about?

Africans in Guangzhou are on edge, after many are left homeless amid rising xenophobia as China fights a second wave of coronavirus | CNN

The African community in Guangzhou is on edge after widespread accounts were shared on social media of people being left homeless this week, as they say China's warnings against imported coronavirus cases stoke anti-foreigner sentiment.

Chris Leslie, also from Nigeria, said he was abruptly evicted from his Guangzhou apartment on Thursday, despite not defaulting on his rent and having a valid contract. He had nowhere to sleep that night. "I will just hang out outside," he said. "It is so pathetic. In a country where people don't accept you and they criticize, this is just a bitter humiliation. The most important thing is having somewhere to sleep."
On Thursday, several volunteer groups emerged on WeChat, mostly populated by scores of other foreigners, rallying around the displaced Africans, organizing food, masks and sanitation products for those left wandering the streets of Guangzhou without a bed.
Katie Smith, an American living in Guangzhou with her Moroccan boyfriend, made two deliveries to newly homeless Africans on Thursday. Her name has been changed to protect her identity, as she, too, fears reprisal from local authorities.
"As we drove down the street we saw a lot of Africans walking around," said Smith. "The police came and said they couldn't stay there. They're not letting them gather in groups. So they're just walking up and down the streets with nowhere to go."

Meanwhile, on Thursday reports emerged from Africans in China that the crackdown on Africans is wider than Guangzhou. One Ghanaian family in Beijing, with no recent travel history or contact with Covid-19, reported that police came to their apartment in the early hours of Thursday morning and ordered them to leave. The Ghanaian embassy in Beijing confirmed that two Ghanaian nationals were currently seeking refuge there, but declined to comment. Africans in Chengdu and Fujian province also told CNN they had been visited by community officials.

You (and I mean people who downplay racism) are just inherently bad people and I wish you the worst in life. There's a whole fucking thread of info, dude.

Communism, ladies and gentleman. Communism.

This has nothing to do with communism. China has all but abandoned the tenants of Marxism since the 70s. This is racism and corruption - which isn't foreign to any economic or political system on the planet.

Privatization is not uncommon in China though corrupt party pick often pick winners and losers as often as they allow for free competition. collectivism and entitlements are increasingly sparse.

My friend is living in Shanghai for years now (she's white though) and even in such big city she couldn't eat in some places because she's not Chinese. It all started after coronavirus.

You'd think China would've learn from the racist bullshit that Asians have been facing since the outbreak.
China has (today in present tense) forced labour camps for Muslim Uyghurs and have crushed Tibetan dissent in the past

the CCP has enacted racist policies since Mao's Cultural Revolution.

They CCP have discriminated against linguist minorities, ethnic minorities and religious minorities harshly

Seriously fuck anyone who defends this racist ass country. If they didn't try to hide this bullshit and sweep it under the rug and kill off doctor's trying to blow the whistle the world wouldn't be going through this bullshit right now either most likely, or at least not on this scale.

No one has said anything racist. There is no "racist dogpile". A country being ethnically homogeneous does not excuse it from criticism of its perpetrated racism. It is no different from criticizing the racist culture of the US.

China's McDonald's are owned by China. You think McDonalds' anywhere else is refusing to serve minorities? That would be news to me. They don't have to worry about their racist leaders.
I think they would if they could yes.... Corporations have no morals...

You can rightfully take to task the abject racism on display here which is part of a much wider racism against Black folk in Chinese society without making some stupid quip about "Communism y'all"....

The contrast of people on the US trying to stop people from calling it the chinese virus because it can cause and has caused racist attacks
with China doing this is something my brain can't process
That's what worries me. I'm supposed to stand and hold hands and advocate for others but when it comes time for folks in China to be like "Nah, that's not cool to do to Black folks" I worry it'll be crickets. Historically, that's what happens.

Dunno how to really say this but there's a difference between a Chinese American in America and a Chinese person in China. You can absolutely condemn China's government, call upon it to ensure better standards and protection for foreigners and minorities while also condemning racist attacks against Asian-Americans in the U.S.

Fuck you china! Where was all this "concern for health" when you were caught with your dick in your hand when covid was spreading rampantly.
I hope Council of Jurists and the UN Human Rights Council make you pay for the damages and these human right violations.
