Just curious how many of you are cool with this deeply racist image being the header for one of your comms
Edit: SJW mods officially endorse racism. Suck off a liberal and a fascist cums
Didn’t the meme originate from Chinese social media lol? A bit of a reach
Reposting this one again:
"Things can undergo a transformation, just because the original usage might have been innocent. If something starts being used by white racists or western imperialists in a racist way, would ya look at that, it’s racist.
Also, it’s covert racism. It gives people plausible deniability. Like you are doing now.
And there are historical precedents of this kind of racism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Peril"
Yeah I guess it is racist to say a singular person defines an entire race, you should maybe try not being so racist
“this guy looks like this cartoon character” isn’t racist.
Mitch McConnell looks and sounds like droopy dog, that’s not racist either.
Sorry, I’m not quite sure how a picture mocking a specific person for something other than race is racist, let alone deeply so.
when a majority white community mocks a chinese man by comparing his appearance to a yellow bear, it’s a little weird
The comparisons were first made in China, actually. The only reason we even know about the comparison is because he got so offended by them, and we keep doing it because he’s upset by it. It’s more about shape than colour, especially since Xi Jinping tends to wear trousers.
Hello Susaga! I’m going to repost a comment I made a few hours ago, in this instance:

Okay putting you down as being okay with it. Got it ty
I’m okay with it because it’s not racist. What is there in this picture to not be okay with?
The racism
What racism? You have yet to explain what’s racist about this picture. I am willing to accept that I’m wrong and I’m just not seeing it from the right perspective, but you have to be willing to explain why rather than just condemn.
You don’t see why tinting an Asian person’s skin yellow is racist? Would you say the same thing about this?
Alright, I can see that. Not deliberate, as they also tinted his suit red to heighten the comparison to Winnie the Pooh, who also has a yellow face, but I can see your perspective now you’ve actually given it. Deeply racist is absolutely a stretch, though, but “kinda racist” is absolutely correct.
Oh well as long as you’re absolutely sure the obvious racism wasn’t deliberate it’s okay
