Thank you for the clarity and pointing out the REAL issue of this ABC/Kimmel incident : It is not just racism against the Chinese. It is against ALL PEOPLE.

However, I’ve read a number of Chinese criticisms of Kimmel prefaced thus: “AS A CHINESE, (I feel Kimmel did wrong, is offensive to the Chinese, is being racist … etc. etc.)”

This facile preface — “as a Chinese, etc etc, etc,” — implies that the ABC/Kimmel incident is just a Chinese concern. So if I were not Chinese, I can just ignore the issue? or shrug?

But racial hatred is a issue that concerns ALL RACES.
.
Perhaps this preface “AS A CHINESE, etc etc etc…” is just a facile way to write English, and does not indicate the commentators’ belief that that the racism and ill-will of ABC & Kimmel are a Chinese issue only. I hope this explains the usage of “as a Chinese” in the comments.

Thank you again for your informative website. I agree with your opinion on this issue. All things considered Mr. Obama should have spoken out about it given the importance of US & Chinese relations.
