磕頭 is the Chinese word "Kowtow" basically meaning "submission" or "prostrate." Yet For some reason, the fact that the Chinese employed this method of submission on others was okay, but when we use it on the context of China forcing it on Western countries, suddenly it's "racist."

Whether I use the word the Chinese made or the use an English amalgamation of its meaning is irrelevant. There is absolutely nothing even remotely ethnocentric or bigoted in using the word. You are just an easily offended person.
