Take a look at my nick. Yes, that’s a Chinese name. Are we doing the Jewish antisemitism thing?

MattsAlt@hexbear.net 10 months agoCare to explain how calling a person of Asian ancestry Pooh Bear isn’t incredibly racist?

As an Asian: I have never once met a single other Asian who thinks the pooh meme is racist.
Extremely interesting that the people who say this always start with “As an Asian” and not “As a Chinese person”. Being Asian doesn’t give you any special experience on Sinophobia just as being a Frenchman or a Brit doesn’t give a person any special experience on anti-Ziganism or European Islamaphobia (except maybe as a perpetrator).

What do you mean, I often start conversations by saying ‘As an Afro-Eurasian from America’.

I’ve met several Asian people, online and offline, who consider it racist to compare an Asian person to a yellow-colored cartoon character.

Ah yes, Winni the Pooh a well stand-in for Asian people.
Not at all a comment on one person, a certain Xi Jinping, who was the butt of Chinese memes comparing him to the bear, and further reinforced by his governments censorship of Winni the poor relating in the Streisand effect.
