The term "white demons" has been used in Chinese discourse to express historical grievances related to colonialism, Imperialism, and exploitation by Western powers. It reflects a perception of Western individuals, particularly during the 19th and early 20th centuries, as oppressors who inflicted suffering on China through unequal treaties, military invasions, and cultural imperialism. The phrase encapsulates deep-seated resentment and a critique of the negative impact of foreign dominance on Chinese society and sovereignty.
