Apparently, in China a “white monkey” is an ethnically non-Chinese foreigner (any ethnicity, any skin color, any nationality) who does a job that requires no skill other than being a foreigner. A lot of advertisements… and a lot of propaganda. Some supremely bizarre stuff here (the Hiddleston ad for vitamins is slack-jawed cringeworthy), and some downright racist stuff. Africans who are welcoming Chinese industries to come in and stripmine their countries should probably take note.
The rates of pay described seem to generally be pretty awful, making me wonder why foreigners would sign on. And there’s one guy (at 8:17) who pretended – let’s hope he’s pretending – to be a US military guy who is turning on the US in favor of China. That’s the sort of thing that cancel culture would be better aimed at rather than some edgelord 15 year old playing video games.
