On the one hand I didn't want to post this because it kinda grossed me out and might ruin someone's day or something -- on the other hand, I "totally could see it being a thing in Asia", just because of the other powdered animal stuff; but wasn't aware of it being a thing, period, and I guess that would describe many people. And some of the sentences in that article are really quite something, oh my.
should add NSFL to that link.
im done with HN for the rest of the day.
> I "totally could see it being a thing in Asia", just because of the other powdered animal stuff; but wasn't aware of it being a thing [everywhere], period, and I guess that would describe many people
so I shared my, uhh, information, instead of just letting that stereotype kinda linger.
As far as it being a thing.. I'm pretty sure historically it's a really big thing. Protein is expensive for subsistence farmers. Too bad OP lost their lunch over it
Exactly that.
I only wrote that the corrupt Chinese elite exploit the people including taking prisoners organs, prostitution, all sorts of human rights abuse.
but somehow it's been derived to that removed comment which implied that I didn't view Mainland China unfavorably, please don't try to conflate it with sinophobia, I haven't made that case at all, it's just apalling behavior from the Communist party of China that pisses me off because it pains me to see what my Chinese friends go through.
Edit: oh nevermind, I can see the comment now. Shame on you.
I said I considered it possible because of the powdered animals stuff [0]. That's not even a statement about "what Asians eat", much less a generalizing one.

> It was a thinly veiled racism
I said I "totally could see it being a thing in Asia". Call that racism if you must, but there is nothing "veiled" here.
> I only wrote that the corrupt Chinese elite exploit the people including taking prisoners organs, prostitution, all sorts of human rights abuse
Yeah, and you put it like this
> the poor sick Chinese elite (they actually eat the fucking placenta for supposedly viagra effect jesus fucking christ im outta here never EVER gonna catch me going to China)
(anyone can turn on "showdead" and still see the comment, you know that, right?)
Sure, technically I guess "they" refers to the Chinese elite. Insofar I accept your correction. But still, way, I actually looked something up real quick that even you, who made the claim, apparently knew nothing about... and as I said, I only "shared what I found" because it refutes any stereotypes about only Asian or Chinese people doing that, heh.
Anyways, back to a vegan Alicia Silverstone eating her placenta; I find that by itself infinitely more fascinating than any of whatever this is.
