The first one is an online gaming meme. It was a hilarious (and highly inappropriate!) clip from H1Z1 where a guy starts shouting “Taiwan number one” at some Chinese players. If you google it you will find it as a first result. Nothing nefarious with that ssid

Edit: here is the clip. Skip to 1:30 https://youtu.be/xN0vUlljX0I

If you or anyone else are not generalizing how are WiFi SSIDs relevant to anything?

How do you know the second is referring to carrier killer missile? I have seen something like Doug Freeman at Apt 26.

I think you wanted to show that Chinese people are not friendly, but the comment only reveals the xenophobia sentiment among some American people.

Reminds me of "I'm not really racist, but ...".

P.S. The first one is a meme in gaming community -- search the term you will see what it is.

I think the first ssid was someone's attempt at being edgy.

The second is far more "edgy"

Believe people (individuals, groups) when they tell you who they are.

Meanwhile there are two separate Nazi references in the SSIDs of my friend's building. This is, frankly, an idiotic line of discussion. I mean, smearing Chinese students (oh I forgot, you said "not generalizing" as though that means anything at all [yes, you were generalizing otherwise what is the relevance?]) because you saw some SSIDs, really!

I think those NAZI SSIDs are indicative of your friend's neighbors as well.

You are bad at reasoning. The SSIDs are indicative of those specific people but not their larger group, in whose membership you can't even verify; there's no way OP knows the SSIDs even belong to Chinese grad students! And even if they did, it tells us little about Chinese people in general.
