This has been happening for centuries though. Cao Cao mandated that first and last names needed to be at least 3 characters in all government forms. This move upset Lu Bu, which decided that war was the only way to settle the issue.
“200 soldiers were killed in the war and an additional 500000 people starved in the ensuing famine.”
You mean Cao Cao advised the Emperor to mandate, right?
Ha. iirc he did have some level of sovereignty. But for such stupid throwaway comment, I admit I didn’t actually remember much about what stage of his career overlapped with Lu Bu’s…
Stupid bit of code but to call it RACISM is a bit much
They clearly didn’t test this rule with a variety of cultures. They probably only tested it against white names.
I don’t think they tested it at all
Racism doesn’t require malice. Something can still be racist in effect, without intention.
But also the Tweet is probably tongue-in-cheek.
