If you remember the thread about Japanese and the rest of Asia, it's not only Chinese who need to stop being close-minded, in a friendship it takes two, at least. There's enough brainwashing in many countries against some other countries. Even Chinese media stopped calling America "Imperialist" but China is often called "Communist", even if a report has nothing to do with politics. Are American media objective towards China or Russia?
Ordinary people are the bridge. In this day and age, all the info is available through the internet, movies, books, magazines, private correspondence, etc. No reason for not knowing better your neigbours, if one wants to know them.I think there is a lack of communication between Japan and China. For most Chinese people, they don't know anyone from Japan.
...
So Chinese and Japanese people need more communication so that we can live together better.

Also, the majority of Japanese people do not have American friends, but somehow they still love America.
Koreans who still hate the Japanse. At least three times when I've mentioned belonging to JREF and likeing Japan , young Koreans have gotten real angry with me.
My dad wrote to me to say if I married her , don't bother returning home , I would not be his son anymore.
Hatred of this nature is like an heirloom, it's hard and pointed at first, and passed on to a new generation. As time passes, people who were alive to experience the war and occupation first hand will die. As the hatred gets passed down, it dulls and becomes blunt, but it's still passed on for sentimental reasons, until those who receive it no longer know what it's for or how it came into their possession, but hold onto it nonetheless and convey it upon their children. It'll take a while, but eventually someone down the line will realize that it no longer serves any purpose and discard it.
That is only partial true. The same young russian guy will crave for German brands on public, and he will stab german tourist if he will meet him alone in dark place, just because he is a german. The terrible side of that is - that crime will be silently approved by society, note, I am not speaking here about authorities, but about ordinary civilians. That hatred is still exists.As much as I dislike consumerism, the crave for Japanese or German brands among young Chinese and Russians I witnessed convinced me that such principles are not carved in stone and more often than not just a lip service.
I did hear many times something like that: "We defeated them and they are living better than us! blah. blah. blah."
