'Age old Western racism towards Chinese people lives on

Age-old Western Racism Towards Chinese People Lives On:

When we were seen as "Sick Men from East Asia", we were called The Peril.
When we strived to get stronger, we are called The Treat.

When we closed our doors to the world, you forced them open with drugs and guns.
When we finally embraced Free Trade, you blame us for taking away your jobs.

When we were falling apart, you marched in your troops and robbed us blind.
When we put the broken pieces back together again, "Free Tibet" you screamed, it was in invasion!

So, we tried Communism, you hated us for being Communists.
Then we learned from Capitalism, you haated us for being Capitalists.

When we were poor, you think we are dogs.
When we loan you cash, you blame us for your debts.

When we build our industries you blame us for blobal warming.
When we sell you goods you can afford, you blame us for dumping inferior products.

When we buy oil, you called that exploitation and assisting genocide.
Wen you fight for oil, you called that liberation of its People.

When we were lost in chaos and rampage, you wanted Rules of Law for us.
When we upload our law and order against violence, you called that Violating Human Rights.

"Why do you hate us so much?" We asked.
"No" You answsered, "We don't hate you."

Truth is were really don't hate you either, but do you understand us?
"Of course we do" You said, "We have BBC, CNN and AFPs."
