Tolerance for tolerance's sake eh? I don't think that endlessly and gratuiously chasing wealth is a healthy way to live, why should I change my opinion?

You referred to it as reprehensible. So you are basically saying that their culture is reprehensible (As the striving for wealth is well and truly part of Chinese culture).

That's fine to not like it your self... but to condemn others... That seems more than just intolerant, that is verging on bigoted.

I admit, my words may have come off stronger than I intended. I am not trying to condemn all of Chinese culture. I do think that some ways of living are better than others, and it should be fine to discuss these things. But I could have framed it more nicely, that is fair.
