well, here's the thing. Those idiots are just ignorant....just keep thinking that...they don't know what the hell they are talking about. Another thing is, it really depends on the area of where you are living in. Most likely, it's not that they hate China, but they are repeating what they have heard through the area that they are in. Let's say, in the middle of Eastern Kentucky, where it's like 98% Caucasian. They may have the tendency to make fun of asians over there because they have no exposure to the Asian culture. And let's say in the Bay Area, in California, where certain areas have 40% Asians, and really diverse. People are exposed to almost every kind of culture there and they most likely won't make fun of them in a hurtful manner.
Just don't hold grudges about it. Laugh to yourself that they will never get to know a great person like you. Laugh to yourself that they will never ever know the real Chinese culture and how ignorant they are. Laugh about thoughts about them walking in the middle of China and getting jumped. And shame on them to just jump to the conclusion to make fun of you and not to get to know the real you.

I think Chinese are not bad people. They have very nice nature. You shouldn't worry what people think about u. You should walk on way, such peoples are obstacles and you should try to remove them. What we eat it depends upon Lord’s wish. We can't eat a single bit without his permission. So why worry dear," If there is noise there’s cotton to put in ear. Those people are not less then those dogs who bark on elephant, but elephant never change his way...

The people at your school are ignorant.Most people fear China because it will soon over shadow the USA as a superpower.No one likes being number 2.
I myself would like to visit China.As I hear it is a beautiful country. With a rich and exciting history.

Take it easy and Laugh it off. Human nature is such that people always cut jokes on others to derive pleasure or show one up man ship. Just ignore and be friendly with others. Grouping brings forth mass psychology, where individual brains lose their ability to think normal.

It"s purely a racial discrimination, infact i came across terms like
Yellow Bast"" , Jaundice Breed and Dog Eaters being used on the chinese.
Maybe the Chinese should speak for themselve too, it is no time for rascism though.

I dont think they do - just a few ignoramuses. They are just teasing to get a reaction. Keep your sense of humour and find new people to hang out with.
PS: The Tianamin Square tragedy got you some bad press.....

I came across Chinese being hated all ard esp in the western nation, hopefully the situation gets better soon, maybe it"s typically due to their skin colour and feature

especially westerners, they are not used to another culture that easily
i bet there will be some racist answers here
but can't we just get along?

I think your question tells me you are still very "nationalistic". The taunts hurt only because you allow it to! Just treat it like water off a ducks back.
