跪国 guì guó
China, a country whose citizens feel compelled to grovel for what is rightfully theirs; alternate writing of expensive country (贵国 guì guó), itself a play on the honorific address guì, thus distancing the speaker from their own country.
Petitioners will often kneel in front of government buildings and officials to attract public attention to their grievances.
In August 2014, Chinese political cartoonist Rebel Pepper posted a cartoon depicting organized mainland protesters in Hong Kong as red-skinned slaves to luxury brands, crawling through the streets on their knees and shouting, "Let's show Hong Kongers what it means to kneel for your country!" (給香港人示範一下什麼叫愛“跪國”主義！) Soon after the cartoon was posted, Rebel Pepper was called a "traitor" who "publicly idolizes Japan." He was in Japan when the accusations were leveled, and he has remained there since.
