The only difference between racism in the US and everywhere else in the world (it DOES exist everywhere else) is that American like to feel guilty about and overanalyze everything.

And the Chinese don't just hate the Japanese because of WWII. They teach their newer generations to keep hating them because Japan to this day still whitewashes their wartime behavior toward China. They have apologized and paid reparations to all the other places they ravaged in WWII, but not to China. I can certainly understand their anger about the whole thing, having been to Nanjing, the museum there and knowing a lot folks from that city. And Japan has not done much to atone for their crimes against China. But who does the hate hurt in the end? Japanese people couldn't care less what Chinese think of them. They have a rich, vibrant democracy and built it in a land with almost no arable land and no reseources. While much of China is still living in the dark ages. It's sad and it will never change.
