So "yellow fever" is basically a modernized version of "orientalism", only more specific
I find this statement to be very loaded and interesting:
"This extends to stripping entire nations of humanity and leads to many people simply expecting certain actions or behaviors on the world stage as congruent with the behavior of the "other".
Racism is a double-edged knife. No, scratch that. It's a ninja star. So many ways to cut, dehumanize, degrade, antagonize, exploit. Also so many ways to celebrate, honor, embrace (but I suppose it's called patriotism or nationalism in this case).
Whatever the chosen term, it's the all too common behavior of humans to divide themselves based on something that could really bring us together, help us build ourselves to be stronger and more united.
The truth is, there is no "other".
We're all human, we are all connected (energetically) and we all bleed when cut. End of story.
Thank you, Cannon Fodder, for bring that to light.
