Man after reading some of these comments on this site I've got to wonder if the people have their head on straight. Firstly the people of asian descent from the countries of China, Vietnam, Japan, etc are all of the same race. Discrimination amongst themselves is not called racism. Second, this about what happens in a post apocalyptic world where everything has gone to hell in a hand basket and all law and order breaks down. This is a place where the strong devour the weak, evil men commit evil acts and people will do anything they can to survive. In this kind of setting, it's only natural some people would devolve into tribalism and militancy. It's entirely as expected. Moreover as the author pointed out, nationalism and tribalism are useful methods to obtain recruits. The downside been, it results in tremendous suffering for the group of people been targeted as scapegoats. Now when the MC encounters his people been victimised by these groups, he naturally gets outraged and retaliates. But this is no different than the way he dealt with the numerous bandit groups in the past. Furthermore unlike what some commentators are implying, he did not go slaughtering everyone like a maniac. After defeating the groups, he only singled out the perpetrators of the crimes to be executed, thus fairly dealing out even-handed justice and bringing closure to the victims. The rest who were not involved were able to join his group without discrimination for good food and promotion, just as long as they were willing to work and follow his orders. Frankly if the author had actually used country A, country B, like Japanese authors do. Nobody would of batted an eyelid. Only when it's China been used you got all these haters coming out of the woodwork. I suspect it has something to do with too much anti-China propaganda in the western media.

Racism does exist between Asian countries. Call it prejudice if you will. If you wanna get real technical, everyone is from the same descent and "race"- homo sapiens. But clearly, racism still exists. A close bloodline does not excuse the differences between the countries. China and Korea are prejudiced against Japan, Taiwan against China vice versa, etc. Just because you don't think it's "racism", that doesn't mean it's not prejudiced or nationalism. Also, they're literally insulting each other based on ethnicity, you know racism is not necessarily only about race, but also ethnicity? Search it up. Your entire argument is invalid, and yet you decide to insult others. Just saying. I won't comment on the book's plot/morals itself, but it's writing quality is pretty trash
If they'd have used "Country A" "Country B" there wouldn't have been a reason for the SJWs to step forward, because it wouldn't have struck as close to home. They're pissed because when using the real countries, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc, and the author portrays all other asian countries as inferior to his nation, China, then those're clearly just the bad kind of nationalistic and disgustingly xenophobic thoughts of the author. It's not racism in this case as they happen to be of the same race but it's portraying one country as superior to others, not in terms of government but in terms of people. The author portrays one ethnic group as superior to another, superior humans, and that is wrong. When the author makes the MC go around slaughtering people of other ethnic groups and then gives him the defense of "Oh, they were all "racist" to my country.." in order to justify his actions, that's downright disgusting. You can't justify racism by explaining that they were racist first, and you sure as hell can't justify ethnic cleansing and genocide with those same arguments. It's got nothing to do with China, it really doesn't matter if there's "anti-China propaganda", we're not slandering his country or him being being a patriot, we're slandering the fact that the author decided to portray other ethnic groups as inferior to his. Like I mentioned before, it's not against the government in this case, critique against the governments in the world is often accepted seeing as how some countries' governments are in many ways much better than others', it's just that you shouldn't differentiate between the people and portray one group as better than another.
I agree with your thoughts.. I just.. ehh.. you're correct to say it's prejudice against people of other countries, but homo-sapiens(humans) is not a race. We in our entirety is a specie, most people refer to five "races" that exist, then there're ethnic groups.
