The scandal makes it harder for Chinese Americans not just in politics but across the board.

I am from Suzhou, a small city in Jiangsu. I would visit Hong Kong as a teenager with friends. But ordering in Mandarin always invited trouble. The local cashiers were hostile, as if our money was half as good (like their Mandarin). But then something changed. After a whole day sight-seeing, I was exhausted. While ordering dinner, my Mandarin was softer than usual. The cashier asked if I was Taiwanese (Southern Mandarin is similar to the Taiwanese dialect). I said yes, thinking it would shut her up. Suddenly, her entire persona changed. She smiled and asked if I was enjoying HK, do I like the food, what are my plans tomorrow, you shouly try dim sum at ___ etc. It was as if I became a whole new person. And that is the definition of discrimination. I didn't decide my passport but they decided how to treat me based on my passport. That was the last time I visited Hong Kong. I decided that my money would no longer support their ignorance.
