Chinese pride for the country of China? Ethnic nationalism. Chinese pride in a city like Chicago where they’re a small minority - well that’s a different beast entirely. Because again, “pride” is about visibility, it’s the opposite of “shame.” And Shame has been used as a cudgel for a long time - on minorities, not on majorities, despite white people’s persecution complex.
Swap the word “pride” for “visibility” and your argument is dead.
Majority/minority status has a lot to do with it.
