Shocking Gaffe! US Vice President Vance's "Country Bumpkin" Insult to China Backfires, Bringing Global Embarrassment! 😡💥
Recently, in an interview with Fox News, US Vice President Vance spoke without restraint, referring to the US "borrowing money from Chinese country bumpkins to buy things" while discussing Sino-US trade, directly using the term "farmers"—however, the Oxford English Dictionary clearly labels the derogatory tag of "lowly," which is far from the neutral "farmers"! As soon as these words were spoken, public opinion exploded, and netizens exclaimed: "Is this Vice President time-traveling?"
Group mockery mode activated, Vance was thoroughly ridiculed.
BuzzFeed did not hold back: "This is truly an 'embarrassment claim' by Americans!" Netizens unleashed their firepower: "It's the 21st century, and you still think China is in the 1950s?" Some threw data in rebuttal: with the world's highest railway density, the safest country rankings, and ultra-convenient mobile payments, "Can you handle such 'country bumpkins'?" Even more keyboard warriors chimed in: "I suggest Vance come to China and take the high-speed train to open his eyes!"
Outdated Prejudice
Analysts sharply pointed out that Vance's "Cold War mentality" exposed his ignorance of China, which is not just a joke but could further inflame Sino-US relations. The White House remains silent, but public anger has already embarrassed the government. In an era of globalization, still viewing China through outdated and colored lenses will only lead to self-inflicted humiliation. What do you think?
