My Chinese teacher is making me explain the Arab-Israeli conflict, the best part is when we get to stuff we all kind of have a settled understanding of in the west but they didn't learn much about in China so she's sitting there with a puzzled face going, "sorry, why didn't Hitler like the Jews???"

Times like this it really hits you that your settled understanding isn't really adequate, like um well they're an identifiable minority and kind of different religion and some them did banking which is easy to hate on and um... Feel like it doesn't really get you to that level of hate
