<blockquote> The very notion of an entire country’s people having their “feelings” collectively “hurt” is inherently idiotic. On one hand, there’s the idiocy of the government proactively claiming such on behalf of all the Chinese without actually consulting them. On the other hand, there’s the simple idiocy of “you hurt my feelings” being mistaken for a mature, rational response to any disagreement or criticism. </blockquote>

Map of countries which have “hurt the Chinese people’s feelings.” (Arctosia)

Chinese diplomats often invoke the people’s long-suffering feelings when another country or organization takes an action which offends Chinese Communist Party officials. Meeting with the Dalai Lama is a classic way to hurt the feelings of the entire Chinese populace. For example, after President Obama met with the Dalai Lama in July 2011, the state-run newspaper People’s Daily complained, “To host the Dalai Lama at the same time China was celebrating the 60th anniversary of Tibet’s liberation hurt the feelings of all Chinese people, including the feelings of Tibetans” (中國正在隆重慶祝西藏和平解放60周年,達賴堂而皇之成為白宮座上賓,不可能不傷害包括西藏人民在內的全體中國人的感情).

In 2008, blogger FangK searched through the electronic archives of the People’s Daily between 1946 and 2006 and discovered that 19 countries and organizations had been accused of hurting the feelings of the Chinese people in its pages. Danwei later translated FangK’s study.
