An advanced piece of technology that is absolutely unnecessary, and usually an expensive add-on to a perfectly fine common item so that its price can be jacked up more than white people themselves.

Baiyue people/Bách Việt people

Groups of hundreds of non-Chinese Yue tribes being native to the Yangtze River, where it is south of the Yellow River. About 5,000 years earlier, the Chinese (formerly called Huaxia) arrived from the Tibetan Plateau, and defeated the Hmongs as well as stealing their homeland to establish the Chinese Civilization. Many Hmongs fled southwards to come in contact to form friendships with certain Yue tribes. Thousands of years later until the Qin dynasty period, the Chinese made a lot of conquests to enslave and assimilate the Baiyue people of different Yue kingdoms, especially the Nanyue Kingdom and Minyue Kingdom, into their empire. The Baiyue people who were left behind in South China after being conquered by the Chinese, and the Sinicization was complete during the Song dynasty period, became Sinicized Viets, notably Hokkien, Cantonese, and Hakka, who acted Chinese culturally, many of them forgotten their Baiyue ancestors, and worship only the Chinese. However, ethnic South "Chinese" retain moderate traces of Chinese DNA mostly on their father side, although they preserve high traces of Baiyue DNA mostly on their mother side with small traces of Baiyue DNA on their father side as a result of intermarriages. The Baiyue people who fled to Southeast Asia and Pacific islands became the Vietnamese, Thais, Laotians, Filipinos, etc. Curiously, Vietnam means "South of Yue" to indicate that the Vietnamese came from the Yangtze River before settling in the Red River Delta.

Baiyue people/Bách Việt people, especially Tai-Kadai and Hmong-mien tribes, practiced rice cultivation, shortening hair, head dressing, teeth pulling, fishing, etc. Baiyue people are more or less the Native Americans of East/Southeast Asia.

Other people wouldn't stay Other people don't obey You and me are both the same You should really run away

this confirms that this song is being sung from the perspective of Billie’s abuser. it explains the tone of the song, and completely changes the way you look at it. Lines like “If you find it hard to swallow, I can loosen up your collar, ‘Cause, as long as you’re still breathing, Don’t you even think of leaving” make it very overwhelmingly clear that this is the perspective Billie is portraying

Also, while some people think the Spotify interview thing from the lyric version disproves this, it just doesn’t. She says the song was made to be “insane live”, not a fun song in terms of concept. She said she was going through crazy feelings at the time and you’d understand if you looked at the lyrics, but doesn’t say what the feelings were. On an album where Billie is venting about her trauma, a song like this would have no place in the project. I don’t know how she could have made this more obvious then by saying me and you are both the same

People are People

People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
So we're different colours and we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me though I've done nothing wrong
I've never even met you, so what could I have done
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
And now you're punching and you're kicking and you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far, it hasn't surfaced but I'm sure it exists
It just take a while to travel from your head to your fist
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
