Moral Cannibalism: Eating Chinese to Save the World

Unbending: German store says it'll keep selling ecological 'Save a dog, eat a Chinese' shirt
By Yvette Tan

A German online retailer is facing a stream of backlash from Chinese after several t-shirts with ecological slogans were made available for sale on its website.
Shirts containing the phrase "Save a dog, eat a Chinese" and "Save a shark, eat a Chinese" were featured on Spreadshirt.
The website allows users to create their own t-shirt designs, which can then be sold on the same platform.
Two users named as Quentin1984 and Monigote appear to be behind the t-shirt design.
Despite enraged Chinese protests, the t-shirts are still available for sale on Spreadshirt's website, with the company saying that they "have decided, based on our open platform principle, to keep the two designs in question."
The Chinese embassy in Germany has condemned the decision to keep the shirts, calling for the retailer to apologise and to stop the sale of the shirts.
As of Monday, both t-shirts are still available on Spreadshirt's website.
Dog meat is part of Chinese culinary culture and sharks fin, on the other hand, is considered a delicacy, although its popularity has somewhat declined in recent years.
