  • Mucahid Aniki funny how westerners try to justify the absolute savage behaviour backpackers portray when they visit vietnam. those guys are racist without any regards towards the local culture, hence they have paid for this trip so they should be able to do whatever.

  • Mucahid Aniki a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another. -> " I dont care what other people think of me, since I am having a holiday. In my own country I do care" , so in other words, you care less what Vietnamese think than that people from your country think, or to rephrase it more logically, you regard the attitudes of your own people to be more important than the other. why?

  • Jake Catlett No, this guy probably would do exactly this in his own country. In his own country he most likely doesn't have to worry about people wanting him to be injured or jailed because they disagree with his appearance. I see no racism whatsoever from his appearance, but I detect heaps of hatred and intolerance coming from people in this thread towards him.

  • Mucahid Aniki Gay pride is legalized obscenity on the street. Many gays don't approve of it, but it in any case they have reason to do so. This is just a jackass with a complete disregard of the local population. He has a holiday, and everyone should know that. I def. think that the amount of backpackers behaving inappropriately in Vietnam is way bigger than San Francisco.

So Id rather not have those guys in the country I love so much  Jonathan it is racism for real. Those people have no regard for the country they are in, how else would you like to label it? Why in Holland, where I am from, I never meet these kinds of Borats?

  • Jake Catlett Well, come on then... Give the Vietnamese more credit than to assume that they're going to look at one idiot and then believe that he/she represents all foreigners. If they do, then they're ignorant as well. It's like people worrying that that Joey Arnold/Oatmeal fool is going to give us a bad name. The Vietnamese are smart enough to know the difference between foreign culture and an idiot.

    Racism is when you say one race is superior to another, usually your own. That's just not what this is. It's just not.

  • Mucahid Aniki Trust me, i had Vietnamese friends asking me why foreigners don't like to take a shower and wear shitty clothes, because the only foreigners they see are either backpackers or on TV. Maybe in Saigon its different, but especially in the smaller cities, people are constantly seeing those douchebags.

Do I have to be tolerant and say, well that is his "lifestyle"? The staff of the restaurant was really too sweet for that guy. Id kick him out of my restaurant.

  • Jonathan Barlow The local people that make generalizations about "foreigners" (does that mean white people?) are actually being more racist.

    Imagine if I said "Why do Asians wear shitty clothes and don't take showers?" Wouldn't you conisder that racist?

    If something is racist when a white person says it, then it must also be racist when a non-white person says it.

  • Mucahid Aniki If Asians would come enmasse to Holland, being unclean, wearing shitty clothes, and have a complete lack of understanding or regards to the locals, I wouldn't find it an unreasonable question. Hence, I am not very fond of British tourists in Amsterdam either. The fact that they ask it to me, instead of automatically assuming that it is the case, shows that they have been willing to consult others before they made up their opinion. As opposed to those two-week backpackers who think that they can tell me something about how the Vietnamese culture really is. Jake, I do see the connection: both of them dont care about what the Vietnamese think, they behave like that, because they feel they are able to, as opposed to what is acceptable in their own countries.

I can't make up much out of that photo, so I am trying to link it up with my own experiences.  anyway im going to sleep guys, chuc ngu ngon

  • Jake Catlett I see what Jonathan is trying to say. Let's put it in a different context - Chinese people in America have a bad reputation for spitting in public and pushing to the front of the line at stores and on public transportation. This is totally unacceptable in our country. Are they racist because they don't behave the ways the locals expect them to? We find it offensive, rude, inconsiderate... but it's not 'racist'. Just ignorant.

  • Jonathan Barlow It's an interesting perspective anyway Mucahid, and I know some western tourists look down on the local people and feel they can get away with doing whatever they want, and some of them might be racist in that respect.

    But this is a very far fetched a    nalysis for one guy in a speedo.

    Racism is a serious issue and I think we need to be careful not to overuse the term. It's being used so much nowadays that it's beginning to lose all significance. It's to the point now where a guy is called racist just because he wore a speedo in public once.

    So the next time you say someone is racist what are we supposed to think? Does that mean he supports enslavement and genocide of all non-whites, or does it mean he just wore a speedo once? See what I mean? No one is going to take racism seriously anymore if we start calling everything we don't agree with racism.
