Born and raised in the deep south, I served during the Vietnam war in the U.S. Navy Hospital Corps. I was also involved in the civil rights movement and the anti-war movement after I left the Navy.
Became involved in the anti-nuclear movement in the early 80s.
There is an old, well-known Chinese curse: "May you live in interesting times."
I cannot remember ever insulting or deeply offending a person of Chinese descent, to the point where he/she would curse me, but I must have.
