You're the one introducing absolutist thinking here. Essentially saying the world should have Chinese style re-education camps because a Vietnamese woman rejected your offer to play a board game due to a miscommunication.
Clearly that hurt you, but your "solution" is insanity. Not to mention I'm pretty sure way more millions have died from people trying to implement your "forcibly convert others to our culture and language" plan throughout history, than from wars started from a language translation error.

- BoiledCabbage 13d ago> They didn't propose a solution, they proposed an end state. What are you talking about? Things they explicitly listed: "(China's camps, Japan&Korea's immigration policies)" China's camps are a process, not an end state. Immigration policies are a process. Clearly they are advocating for a process. And, no I don't think re-educations camps are a good thing for society. It's incredible this stuff has to actually be said.
