Fears rise that Beijing is stoking mistrust of foreigners as part of the government’s attempt to rebuild a reputation tarnished by the coronavirus crisis

Over the past few weeks, as Chinese health officials reported new “imported” coronavirus cases almost every day, foreigners living in the country have noticed a change. They have been turned away from restaurants, shops, gyms and hotels, subjected to further screening, yelled at by locals and avoided in public spaces.

Chinese people are so selfish and stupid. China put this virus into the world. China is responsible for the people dying in Italy and Spain. Anything they should fear is the Chinese authority and the people responsible for the outbreak not the foreigners who got it from them.

Who's racist now?

La xenófobia debería parar de parte de cualquier persona. Por que no hay excusa para ser asi de cruel solo por ser ignorante. 😢

Xenophobia is everywhere, Asian people are discriminated in Western, and White people are discriminated in Eastern, We should cut all these madness off

oh no not xenophobia

Boycott China's Olympic Games 2022.

An eye for an eye

It is a common theme: When a large crisis occurs, put a blame on others. Remember BlackDeath in Middle Ages and 9/11/01. In Middle Ages, Jews and cats were blamed. After 9/11, Muslims were discriminated against. This is unfortunate, but it always happened. COVID19

Xenophobia?! The Chinese keep bringing new lethal viruses because of their unsafe sanitary habits when handling animals(swine flu, avian flu, bat flu). Go ahead, hug them, contract a virus and die. I prefer life!

Ha ha reverse racism. What goes around comes around.

To be fair, the amount of horror people with blue eyes have inflicted on this world.. I'll much rather jump back than be taken onto a boat or targeted by a drone strike

And yet in the western world we allow these bat eaters to steal our technology, infect our people, and harm our society. Can Trump order a 9066 for them? We need it now!

They need to focus on improving their markets

Tit for tat. Now the Chinese will avoid British restaurants, and spray foreigners with Febreez.

Just further proof multiculturalism FAILS EVERY TIME.

Poetic justice I guess

So Chinese will be leaving en masse from Europe, Canada and the U.S. now. Right?

Fjordman1 Good. How about we all stay in our own God damn countries.

Sorry Guardian, this is problematic and should not be published. Only white British and American people are xenophobic. Got that?

Bullshit. People are pissed off at the corrupt and evil CCP for unleashing a global plague. It’s not xenophobia

Xristos10818751 This is incredible propaganda. China already has an entrenched superiority/racist culture. The fact is they're about to face unprecedented global hatred and backlash against COVID-19, CCP and Chinese lying & spying culture in general. Expect our Leftists to be on their side. 😉

👐

The Chinese government spread the disinformation that the virus actually come from abroad and many Chinese believed this. So they become xenophobic

There are some disgusting human beings out there.

Have you heard the US president speak?

Well deserved! They eat and cook every single mammal, fish and insect they see!!! Of course these modern viruses come from there!!!

Fake news!!

Xenofobia can go both ways,you know? It's not a westerners attribute only.

CCP,are experts in propaganda.The rules about having more than 1 child were written all over villages on walls & people feared not obeying would have it's consequences.With COVID-19 the new propaganda is to fear foreigners as 'they brought it'.Brain washing to control.

Can u British imagine how shit your country is without China?

people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones? fake lefty paper should highlight UK xenophobia more

Loooool fair enough ..

Authoritarians would weaponize Covid-19 to sow tribal hatred, to distract the people from their deadly incompetence, to keep themselves in power.

This is mental, anti white racism in the Guardian, I can't believe it. Next stop the white farmers in Africa. They wouldn't go there, would they?

Yeah, most other people feel the same about the Chinese coronaVirus

The Chinese have many great qualities but thinking for themselves is not one of them. HiveMind.

Put it down to the Trump Effect

The majority of humans are morons, regardless of where they live. There have also been cases of racism against far-eastern-looking people in the West.

How fucking crazy. These people are so barbaric.

Wow, way to make a sansational headline, just you know Chinese people are much much more friendly to foreigners than you lots

Caucasians complaining of discrimination? 👀👀👀

Those guys who blame everyone that call the virus to WuhanVirus is racism , where are they now? jeremylin WHO Robert Redfield BruceAylward

Wait there’s xenophobia in non-western countries? Is this the guardian I’m reading? 😳 I need help sorting this out intersectionally: who is the victim here?

The Chinese authorities do a good job of brainwashing their citizens into believing pretty much anything they want them to.

It’s dislike of the communists in charge not the citizens of China. They are the first to suffer under CCP rule.

Can't think why, you'll probably find its directed to the totalitarian Chinese government, not its people

Seems fair as Chinese people are being discriminated against in other countries, especially in the UK.

The Guardian is beyond fake news. This bunch of lesbian writers really are the enemy of the people.

It doesn't feel good, right? 😂😂😂

Britain plans coronavirus ‘reckoning’ with China which could become ‘pariah state’THE BRITISH Government is planning a 'reckoning' with China over its handling of the coronavirus outbreak, with warnings the country could become a 'pariah state' unless it alters its behaviour. China may yet become a more ‘Western’ Nation, when Xi is FORCED to stop Human Rights abuses (especially to millions of Uighur in the North West of China). Some ‘good’ may come of this Covid-19 Pandemic. Xi is obviously lying about numbers of Chinese deaths - AND Uighur deaths!
