    We’ve already seen the modlog and know you were banned for racism.

        The ones where you called Xi a yellow animal. Also if you aren’t Asian shut the fuck up with “oh but it isnt racist”. I’m part Asian and that shit is racist.

          I have to admit I probably would have read yellow in that context to mean ‘cowardly’ rather than with racist connotations but I can see how it could be taken that way.

          Didn’t the whole Winnie the Pooh moniker originate within China itself? It was only picked up in the US like years later.

            Winnie the Pooh is a stuffed teddy bear, not a “yellow animal”

            Asians are depicted and referred to as yellow in racist caricatures.

              In OP’s defense, is it possible that they were referencing the Xi as Winnie the Pooh meme? Pooh is in fact yellow and is ostensibly an animal.

              I dunno, I wasn’t there for the larger context, but it seems at least possible that this is what happened.

              I will take my downvotes now.

                "In their defense westerners love to share a meme about an Asian man being yellow. Maybe it’s not racist. "

              That actually sucks and I do not agree with that.

                Are you telling me you have never in your life heard the term “Yellow Peril”?

                  In other parts of the post OP claims to be the pinnacle of political understanding, yet is ignorant on very basic racist terminology used in our political history. Iconic.

        You’re free to check the modlog, rather than lying that you were “banned for mentioning Tiananmen Square”
