Anti-Qing sentiment (
Chinese: 反清;
pinyin:
fǎn Qīng) refers to a sentiment principally held in
China against
Manchu rule during the
Qing dynasty (1636–1912), which was criticized by opponents as being barbaric. The Qing was accused of destroying traditional
Han culture by forcing Han to wear their hair in a
queue in the
Manchu style. It was blamed for suppressing Chinese science,
causing China to be transformed from the world's premiere power to a poor, backwards nation. The people of the
Eight Banners lived off
government pensions unlike the general Han civilian population.
The rallying slogan of anti-Qing activists was "Fǎn Qīng fù Míng" (simplified Chinese: 反清复明; traditional Chinese: 反清復明; literally: "Oppose Qing and restore
Ming"), related to the
Boxer Rebellion slogan "Revive the Qing and destroy the foreigners" ("扶清滅洋 fú Qīng miè yáng").
In the broadest sense, an anti-Qing activist was anyone who engaged in anti-Manchu
direct action. This included people from many mainstream political movements and uprisings, such as
Taiping Rebellion, the
Xinhai Revolution, the
Revolt of the Three Feudatories, the
Revive China Society, the
Tongmenghui, the
Panthay Rebellion,
White Lotus Rebellion, and others.

Anti-Manchuism (Chinese: 排滿) refers to sentiment which is held against the
Manchus, or sentiment which was held against the
Qing Dynasty's rule over Chinese civilization which was often resented for supposedly being a barbaric regime which ruled over Chinese civilization despite a high degree of cultural integration by the Manchus. This ethnic-based[
citation needed] sentiment tended to be a subset of the greater
anti-Qing sentiment. Some of the anti-Manchuists in the
Qing dynasty stated
"Fan qing fu ming" (
simplified Chinese: 反清复明;
traditional Chinese: 反清復明) to say they want to rebuild the
Ming dynasty and overthrow the Qing dynasty.
Sun Yat Sen, who overthrew the
Qing Dynasty and founded the
Chinese Republic, proclaimed this when he launched his rebellion against the Qing Dynasty which was led by
Manchus and ruled all of
China from 1644 to 1911:
In order to restore our national independence, we must first restore the Chinese nation. In order to restore the Chinese nation, we must drive the barbarian Manchus back to the Changbai Mountains. In order to get rid of the barbarians, we must first overthrow the present tyrannical, dictatorial, ugly, and corrupt Qing government. Fellow countrymen, a revolution is the only means to overthrow the Qing government!

Genocide and extermination of Manchus
Driven by their fierce hatred of Manchus, the Taiping launched a massive
genocide campaign against the Manchus to exterminate their entire race.
The genocide of Manchus was incredible, in every area they captured, the Taiping immediately rushed into the Manchu fort in order to kill all the Manchus. One Qing loyalist observed in the province of
Hunan of the genocidal massacres committed by Taiping forces against the Manchus and wrote of the "pitiful Manchus", the Manchu men, women and children who were exterminated by the Taiping with their swords. Once
Hefei capitulated, the Taiping forces rushed into the Manchu quarter shouting "Kill the demons (Manchus)!" while exterminating all the Manchus living there.
Ningbo's entire Manchu population was also annihilated.
[12]
After conquering Nanjing, Taiping forces stormed the Manchu fort, killing some 40,000 Manchus, which was the city's entire population of Manchus.
[13] On 27 October 1853 they crossed the
Yellow River in T'sang-chou and butchered about 10,000 Manchus.
[14] In Shaoxing 2,000 Manchus were also killed.
