A couple years ago I had dinner with a 21-something childhood Chinese-American friend, no, acquaintance of mine to find that she was dating a Jewish communist 8 years her senior, and had forgotten almost all of the Chinese her parents taught her. After a 90-minute-long cakewalk of a debate on the flaws of communism and leftism in general (which I'm pretty sure turned her boyfriend off to me permanently, good riddance), we left the restaurant and I chatted her up while he walked ahead of us in silence.
Later my mom (who is friends with this girl's mom, which is why I know her) informed me that the girl's parents were quite worried about her: the Jewish boyfriend apparently had bad manners, as exhibited on one occasion when the girl was moving out and her dad was helping her move stuff while all the guy did was find a stool to sit on and eat. It's pretty sad considering that as first generation Chinese-Americans they are probably hoping that he has a mind to marry her.
As a small consolation, the girl didn't seem to care for her boyfriend's radical views at all.
To them, even if he's a broke communist, a white jewish guy is a step-up. They don't care about his views because it was never about that. It's simply about what he is. Chinese are pragmatists, not ideological at all.

I think a lot of the offense to that sort of stuff among "the kids these days" comes from the usual suspects: ego and narcissism.
Other people aren't part of your play. They don't have intimate knowledge about you. People say dumb things, silly things, even outrageous things from time to time for all sorts of reasons, even just because they're trying to make conversation in a situation they find themselves unfamiliar with. Hell, I do it myself plenty.
It's like they're expecting grade A conversation game to be run on them by everyone at all times, because they're the center of their universe and have grown to expect it. The real world doesn't operate that way, and there's nothing intrinsically wrong with the fact that it doesn't.
