Why don't you go back to China...
Jump to: Newest in thread
That was what I was faced with this morning on my commute to work. Sitting down minding my own business on the tube and a man standing in front of me says this while glaring at me...
After looking at him dumbfound not fully comprehending what he said he repeated it.
I had no come back, I wasn't really prepared for this at 8:30 in the morning and I was a stop away from where I needed to get off.
Like how do you even respond to that? No one around said a word they either stared at me or they "didn't hear" what was said.
Firstly, I'm Filipino (born and raised in London) and I've never been to China.
Secondly, even if I was Chinese that's such a hurtful and ignorant thing for him to say.
The media have thrown a lot of things out of proportion and I'm shaking my head at how fear have driven some people to lash out this way.
I see that the forums have opposing views I just wondered if you agree with what he did, if it was justified or was that out if line? |

Really, people still like that actually exist?! I cannot believe the ignorance and stupidity of some people in this day and age. But just looking at the state of current affairs I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. |

Firstly I must say how saddened and angered I am that you should have to put up with this kind of abuse by some ill informed bigot. It is a sad indictment of modern Britain and behaviour such as you faced is utterly deplorable and abhorrent.

Considering most of the best stuff is made in China and contributes to most of the worlds export trade i'd of told him where to go! I guarantee he's contributed fuck all to the world apart from negativity and a wasted vote on UKIP or something!! |

I hope this won't grind you down. Some people are arseholes. This is typical of the Fake News generation i.e too thick to get their facts straight. Hit him over the head with a heavy atlas...he might get the point. |

What a horrible thing to happen to you, totally unacceptable.
Sadly in this country there are a lot of people that believe all they read in The Sun and watch on the shockingly biased BBC news without question.
Then they feel entitled to share their bigoted opinion and abuse people and all because they are stupid and scared.

Wish id have been there !!!!! He'd of wished he had died on the way to his mothers womb ....... i experienced blatant racism in Calafornia face to face to a black lad from London i was talking to ..... living in America .... he had been Drafted into the US army back in the 80's. The perpetrator was my Brother in law by marriage whom my family were stopping with his family. Unlucky for him we were on a pier fishing .....so i looked at the Black lad and proceeded to throw the dumb american over the pier 30ft to the shoreline ....... well i thought the sand would break his fall ....... not both his legs ... Whoops !!! |

"You should have sneezed on him."
That made me laugh more than is probably appropriate in the circumstances!
If you follow @DMReporter on twitter it's easy to see where a lot of the bile and hatred comes from. People are slowly brainwashed and don't realise it. |

If I was in earshot of that I would have jumped to your defense, and have in similar situations before. Cannot stand racists and for others to pretend they did not hear is just disgraceful
You must have felt very alone and that is horrible x |

He probably wanted to say it and the virus was an excuse for him to 'justify' his racism.
I don't think what he said was justified at all. This country is openly going to shit now the government have made it possible. |

People like this have always been around under rocks. In the last few years (and I’d say from June 16, do the maths) they have been empowered and legitimised by the words and deeds of our so-called leaders.
We have a PM who has been openly insulting to black people, Muslim women, Turks, gay people, and politicians like him have stoked the innate prejudices of people in search of votes, knowing that it would create division and open racism that would work in their favour.
It’s shameful |

I'm not a Labour supporter but i agree with them. Boris is openly racist and he got voted in to run the country, also they used immigration control as a reason for why brexit should happen because racism.
It's not a coincidence that violent crime has gone up and hate crime too. |

I think is going away from the topic but no not really. No loyalty to any party. But interesting you said that. Have you ever been on the receiving end of racism? And how would you explain the increase in race-related incidents in the last 3 years? |

I'm going to be blunt here.
Racist or not he's just an attention seeking bully.
I know some people who hold racist opinions, and they are free to have their opinion. But even they would not behave like this.
So, no matter where you go or what you do in life. There is going to be a bully wanting to knock you down to their level. Why? Because they don't like the fact you are better than they are.
Bullies seem to believe that they get bigger the smaller they make you feel.
But bullies. Homophobic, racist, sexist, anti-semite, Muslim hating or whatever thing they want to hide behind to legitimise their cowardly acts. Only ever have the power you give them.
A comeback wasn't nessecary. You couldn't make him look more stupid than he made himself. |

I've seen this on the tube myself when i've been to london, sadly.
A group of moronic women were pretending to do a fake chinese accent and "bowing" to a guy in carriage i was in, last time i was there.
On a side note, I've taken to walking in london now, when i go & setting off an hour early or so, it's a very interesting place to walk around. Obviously this is not feasible if you need to be somewhere quickly/are travelling to work.
Like some other people have suggested, if you can report it, they might get the guy on camera.
-Don't let the fuckwits get you down.

Echoing the previous posters, I’m so sorry that you had to encounter that today, and that it has stuck with you as it has.
I’d like to put a different slant on it - I’ve noticed a few scenarios in the media/tv programmes where minor celebrities have confronted people who have trolled them with horrendous comments online, and the common thread seems to be that these trolls are deeply unhappy people, projecting onto others, and that they feel deep jealousy towards. You probably looked beautiful today. And you’ll be beautiful in all your Filipina (I don’t think that’s the spelling!) loveliness tomorrow too, but he will have to continue being eaten up by unhappiness.
Just my penny’s worth |

After looking at him dumbfound not fully comprehending what he said he repeated it.
I had no come back, I wasn't really prepared for this at 8:30 in the morning and I was a stop away from where I needed to get off.
Like how do you even respond to that? No one around said a word they either stared at me or they "didn't hear" what was said.
Firstly, I'm Filipino (born and raised in London) and I've never been to China.
Secondly, even if I was Chinese that's such a hurtful and ignorant thing for him to say.
The media have thrown a lot of things out of proportion and I'm shaking my head at how fear have driven some people to lash out this way.
I see that the forums have opposing views I just wondered if you agree with what he did, if it was justified or was that out if line?"
Out of line?? He was so far over the line you couldn't see him!! Such a shame this still goes on!! I thought our grandparents or great grandparents fought to stop this kind of racism/xenophobia? Just down right nasty!! I hope you're ok OP? |

What is really hard to believe is that a stranger on the Tube actually spoke to you! Seriously though he's an ignorant twat, we have both had similar comments but these people are a minority not worth worrying about |

It's really not something I've encountered too much in my life directly and not saying anything or having anything to say to him was really because I wasn't ready for something like that to happen.
Basically my armoury was empty...
The last crazy thing that happened to me on the tube was last summer but that's a different story all together.
I just feel like this situation has been blown out of proportion for some and their fear is an excuse to bring up their prejudices... another thread going on at the moment about the coronavirus and someone saying they are avoiding their local Chinese takeaway???? Like that's obviously so logical from an educated point of view... I'm just mad and upset about all of this... my brother in law is Chinese, my future nephew or nieces will be half Chinese but to ignorant people we all look the same. |

It wasn't justified and he was way out of order. He was also ignorant to assume you were Chinese.
Unfortunately there are lots of idiots around like him and I'm sorry for that happening, OP. |

"I'm going to be blunt here.
Racist or not he's just an attention seeking bully.
I know some people who hold racist opinions, and they are free to have their opinion. But even they would not behave like this.
So, no matter where you go or what you do in life. There is going to be a bully wanting to knock you down to their level. Why? Because they don't like the fact you are better than they are.
Bullies seem to believe that they get bigger the smaller they make you feel.
But bullies. Homophobic, racist, sexist, anti-semite, Muslim hating or whatever thing they want to hide behind to legitimise their cowardly acts. Only ever have the power you give them.
A comeback wasn't nessecary. You couldn't make him look more stupid than he made himself."

This is disgusting..... it has always been there but unfortunately Brexit has made people feel that it is more acceptable to say such things to and about people.

I am so sorry about that. Well I am Chinese and Born in Britain. And unfortunately I’m just waiting for the moment to happen me.
But don’t let that put you down unfortunately there is a balance in this world there is good people when there is bad people.
But just look at this as tomorrow is another day and be thankful for your health

Not a nice thing to hear and in public too. The problem is human nature throws up a whole host of anomalies like that one. All cultures have their bigots who believe what they want to believe.
Don't take it personally, hold your head up high and be proud that you took the harrassment for the sake of others, you are a very brave lady. Hopefully he'll regret what he said when he realises how stupid he is.
For all he knows he could have been the cause of the epidemic.
Don't believe the hype.

Sadly, the whole Brexit thing has empowered racists; they believe they can now be this rude.
What a narrow minded comment"

I think this man is a twat, and am disappointed (but sadly not entirely surprised) that no one came to your defence.
Either because its London- and theres a different mentality to talking to strangers than there is up here, or for fear he would turn on them.
Sending hugs OP x |

There is no place where this could ever possibly be considered acceptable behaviour. We all come from somewhere ,as did our parents and theirs before and so on. Very very very few people are from where they think they are from and if traced far enough back we all come from the same place. We all have the right to just live our own lives. You are a stunningly beautiful and articulate person. Try ignore smaller minds. Hopefully evolution will out these throwbacks eventually |

"People like this have always been around under rocks. In the last few years (and I’d say from June 16, do the maths) they have been empowered and legitimised by the words and deeds of our so-called leaders.
We have a PM who has been openly insulting to black people, Muslim women, Turks, gay people, and politicians like him have stoked the innate prejudices of people in search of votes, knowing that it would create division and open racism that would work in their favour.
It’s shameful
Only a Labour supporter would write this dont listen to this Half witted drivel of a comment"
Which part of the post before yours did you disagree with? Feel free to provide evidence of Johnson not being racist/homophobic/xenophobic/misogynistic as I've seen plenty of evidence for him being all of the above. |

What point would that be?? Ah I know that she’s being racist towards anybody that’s not white? I’ve had that accusation too except I’m being racist to white guys because my preference is for black guys oh but apparently I’m also being racist to black guys as I’m just using them for sex lol at the end of the day it’s nobody else’s business who someone chooses to sleep with preferences when it comes to sex are very different to discriminating against others in real life non sexual situations |

What part do you think is incorrect. It would take you about 5 seconds to find Johnson's racist, sexist and homophobic comments.
He's even refused to apologise for them (the old 'take a joke' response), so apparently he's aware of them even if you're not. |

Disgusting behaviour. Not worth trying to reason with these scummy types. On the plus side, these morons will forget about the coronavirus soon enough and will resort to picking on brown people soon, or Muslim women wearing headscarf etc. |

I've not accused anyone of being racist - least of all the OP. My point Gemma, is that many (quite understandably) will draw their own conclusions from a blatant "NO BLACKS / ASIANS" comment on a profile - and there are plenty of those on here.
I was merely comparing the OP's comment on her profile with her dreadful experience on the tube, and inviting a civilised debate.
I fail to grasp how melanin matters in the slightest when choosing a sexual partner; you're either compatible with someone, or you're not. |

The OPs profile doesn’t state No Blacks/Asians though it states white guys only. Also what conclusions will people draw? I feel to grasp how it’s anyone else’s business who someone chooses as a sexual partner |

So completely out of line, such an idiot. We have no idea why someone could ever say such a hurtful and thoughtless thing, or why other people think it is acceptable to sit and say or do nothing. You are right to talk about it. X |

Like how do you even respond to that? No one around said a word they either stared at me or they "didn't hear" what was said.
Firstly, I'm Filipino (born and raised in London) and I've never been to China.
Secondly, even if I was Chinese that's such a hurtful and ignorant thing for him to say.
The media have thrown a lot of things out of proportion and I'm shaking my head at how fear have driven some people to lash out this way.
I see that the forums have opposing views I just wondered if you agree with what he did, if it was justified or was that out if line?
Are you telling me that's your first racist encounter? "
No it's not. When I was younger I got it a lot. In my recent adult history I could probably count them on my finger. |

Unfortunately since This whole Brexit thing the racist and ihmorantbhave started to come out of the woodwork.
It seems to have made.it legitimate for these pondlife to be more.open.about their racism.
I am.mixed.race and I find I get more and more of this now than.i did three years ago.
Its always been there but sadly more out in the open |

People like that are the worst, he was completely in the wrong. I'm sorry that happened to you OP.
My 10yr old Grandson is half Chinese and he has been told by other kids at his school to F off back to China, He was born in the U.K. as were his parents,his fathers parents were born in Hong Kong when it was under British Rule.he has never been to Hong Kong. How does one explain to him and his 5 yr old sister the negative attitudes of some people."
Sadly it's nothing new. In the 60s there was a documentary about sicko cell anaemia, a heridary condition that affects black and Mediterranean people.
Day after it was aired white friends wouldn't play with us and were scared because their parents told them not to play with us in case we infected them. |

It’s absolutely disgraceful behaviour and also same from the people around too!! I would’ve had to defend you as idiots like that need showing up for what they are!!
Sorry you had to put up with such disgusting behaviour and hopefully you don’t bump into another bad mannered uneducated idiot like him again x |

First of all, I am glad that u r safe, the idiot might have been one of the violent kind. Second of all why oh why did not anybody on the train say anything ? that is way disgusting. This kind of attitude towards any person is wrong , he had no idea where you were from, you did well not to respond. Thank you or sharing this bad experience and I really hope it never happens again not just to you but to anybody. |

Who, in their right mind could possibly agree with this ignorant oaf's abhorrent, bigoted views; but your "preference" for white people only does raise an interesting point...
What point would that be?? Ah I know that she’s being racist towards anybody that’s not white? I’ve had that accusation too except I’m being racist to white guys because my preference is for black guys oh but apparently I’m also being racist to black guys as I’m just using them for sex lol at the end of the day it’s nobody else’s business who someone chooses to sleep with preferences when it comes to sex are very different to discriminating against others in real life non sexual situations
I've not accused anyone of being racist - least of all the OP. My point Gemma, is that many (quite understandably) will draw their own conclusions from a blatant "NO BLACKS / ASIANS" comment on a profile - and there are plenty of those on here.
I was merely comparing the OP's comment on her profile with her dreadful experience on the tube, and inviting a civilised debate.
I fail to grasp how melanin matters in the slightest when choosing a sexual partner; you're either compatible with someone, or you're not.
The OPs profile doesn’t state No Blacks/Asians though it states white guys only. Also what conclusions will people draw? I feel to grasp how it’s anyone else’s business who someone chooses as a sexual partner "
Just because my sexual attraction and therefore preference is predominantly for White men doesn't mean I hate Asian or Black men. I think there is a difference between attraction and tolerance. I don't have to explain myself on this site but I don't go around telling people I don't like Black or Asian people but attraction is attraction and who's to say I haven't been with some black and Asian men?? |

Firstly sorry you got a loser on the train, secondly I love your profile and don't worry about the losers wanting you to fuck people you are not attracted to.
Soon it will be illegal to have preferences, enjoy while you still have choice

I am so sorry to read what you went through this morning on the tube in London one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world.Last week at work one of my colleagues refused to see a man at her desk because he was Chinese looking and her words were I don’t know where he has been.Why my government department employ such arse holes I don’t know |

That's just disgusting and ignorant behaviour... personally in your situation I'd have pretended to sneeze on him but then I have an evil streak
But I have witnessed some horrible comments on the underground towards others.. I wouldnt have stayed quiet had I heard something but.. will say I tend to be in my own world when travelling or have headphones in x |

"I think the message should have been Don't let anyone out of China once this was known about.
Containment is the only way.
Yeah yeah I know its almost impossible "
& not at all helpful or even relevant to this post. The OP isn’t Chinese, it is down to ignorance, xenophobia and racism. None of which should be acceptable in any country. |

Have you thought of this as a hate crime? Might be worth reporting. |

Absolutely disgusting behaviour, racist ignorant and utterly indefensible. I am so sorry you were abused like that and not one person came to your defense. If i was there, i would have. If you want to live in a society where this doesn't happen, you must stand up against it. Xx |
