We've already seen the modlog and know you were banned for racism.
Which comment was racist ? ๐ค
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 wasn't saying that about the color... Asians aren't even yellow... wtf is your stuff about saying Chinese are yellows ??? Is that an American thing ?
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's why the meme is racist lol
Hexbear at least does not have the ability to downvote
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.
