The Chinese are some of the most openly racist people in the world, but are the first to scream racism even for the slightest perceived slights. Anyone remember the washing machine ad where a dirty black man gets put into the washing machine and a clean non-black comes out? How about the recent reports of Chinese company workers in Kenya openly calling their black workers monkeys? But, a Chinese woman eating pizza with chopsticks is so much worse, right? The pot calling the kettle black! > **[Dolce & Gabbana has a big China problem after ad causes outrage](https://edition.cnn.com/2018/11/23/business/dg-in-china-intl/index.html)** > > Dolce & Gabbana is facing a major crisis in China where top e-commerce sites are dumping its products over accusations of racism. ---

Chinese have one standard for them and another standard for everyone else. ---

This is a pretty interesting documentary about a chinese laoban trying to build a few roads in the Congo.

i was told the main thing they are pissed off about is a leaked conversation of the boss calling chinese people shit and stinky or something like that. which would make sense, i don’t see chinese people getting too riled up over the advert, other than using a girl which chinese would consider ‘countryside’ looking. but it is pretty hypocritical especially as the chinese company’s never seem to apologize after they do the same. ---

I’ll just modify that a bit. Asians have one standard for them and another for everyone else. China is just the worst offender. Tbf Westerners aren’t any better. Check the Canada Reddit site when a topic with Chinese comes up. They just don’t openly say what they think. ---

These designers biggest consumers are the Chinese. Most of them are owned by the Chinese now. In Italy, the stores all speak Chinese with so many Chinese tourists that come for shopping designer good in Italy. And you can see the stuff they put out have been tailored to chinese taste, lost of red color and patterns that Chinese people like. Ugly imo. But they are buying so. ---

It was like this for me where I went to University. I suspect there has been immediate change there, given that from what I have seen (increased Chinese character presence in advertisements, etc.) these businesses are wise enough to notice. ---

That ad was such a waste of opportunity. Chinese like to say they invented pizza and cannoli, well, show both ping and steamed buns and pizza side by side. Make friends not enemies. But I guess that if in their heart they hate the people who buy their stuff they will stir towards this stuff. Yeah, the Chinese are racist, but poking fun at them will not make brownie points but rather unleash the insecurities and voy, can they hold a grudge. ---

If one sells overpriced shite to people one considers vulgar and inferior, best to keep one’s mouth shut. ---

I really appreciate his design style but I think he should watch his mouth. I remember a scandal from a year back when he called Selena Gomez “ugly” publicly on Instagram. It’s just those things where if you are a designer of that caliber you cannot do. This is way worse and wouldn’t be surprised if China will not allow his brand to sell over there anymore, especially because rich Chinese people are the only ones who can afford it these days. ---

There’s a big issue with how some people in the fashion industry treat women and/or East Asians. It’s the anorexic elephant in the room. It’s almost as if some of these gay chaps might be misogynistic, but surely that couldn’t be the case. ---

Basically this. It’s not the ad they care about but the remarks that they are pissed about. If those were truly said by the guy I wouldn’t blame the mainlanders for being upset and boycotting the brand. ---

The excuse is his account was hacked, rather than he had a revealing Prima Donna moment. Is “China Ignorant Dirty Smelling Mafia” Italian? It sounds Chinese to me. [Next page](https://tw.forumosa.com/t/chinese-claim-dolce-gabbana-racist/174679.md?page=2)
