    That asteroid was just minding its business, not decimating any life anywhere when they shot it.

    That’s the equivalent of shooting a Chinese person today because of pearl harbor.

      Why would I shoot a Chinese person for what Japan did in Pearl Harbor?

        That’s the joke.

        Why are people even using forums if they can’t grasp written language?

          It would make more sense if he said “It’s like shooting a Japanese person today because of pearl harbour”

            But they already received a nuke for it.

            But might as well double down on nonsense as OP seems completely oblivious

          Exactly. Why are people even using forums if they can’t even read the WWII story in full so they can’t possibly formulate a cohesive metaphor.

              The ‘common knowledge’ of WWII goes well beyond far and wide what was happening on one side of the fence. Being oblivious to that just to make what OP thinks is ‘edgy’ racism joke is pretty fucking severely racist and clearly missed some pretty basic ‘common knowledge’.

      This was Japan…do you not know or remember the rest of the story of WWII and how that went for them?? Or maybe you got bored in the middle of the story.

        Read the rest of the comments that I made. I chose China on purpose to illustrate how ridiculous it is to shoot a random asteroid because of the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs.

        I apologize for writing a post that requires assuming a context clue.

          China aren’t random in context of WWII. They were victims of japan. It’s actually hugely racist to even attempt such a joke with true obliviousness to that ‘detail’.

            It wasn’t random, it was intentionally wrong, you dingus.

            My dad always said there are people who would bitch even if you hung them with a brand new rope, I guess you’re one of them.

      uh oh, you did a racism.

      not all asian people are chinese.

      The chinese were too busy getting warcrimed by the japanese (who actually did it) to do pearl harbour

        I choose to believe they picked the wrong nationality on purpose to illustrate how taking revenge on this asteroid doesn’t make sense.

        I really hope.

          Yes, that is exactly my point. Japanese and Chinese people have similar skin tones and some other features in common, but punishing the Chinese for what the Japanese did in the past is as wrong as shooting this rock for the dinosaurs.

          I think you’re right. The asteroid literally kamikaze’d itself so the analogy actually works quite well

        No, it was to build up on my point, it was intentional. I do everything in my power to not be racist.

        Also, even if I was unintentionally wrong, I think that would be an accident and not a racism. I would have to do it a second time on purpose to be a racism
