There are still a lot of poeple, mostly whites, believe that there is a racial hierarchy in this world with the whites at the very top and the Chinese should be no where near there!
Specifically, the 5-eyers should be the whitest of the whites, with western European following and then east Europeans, then the honourary whites such as the Japs and Hindians (still Aryans though dark)... etc China has a lot of work to do to overthrow that perception.
