    The joke was started by the Chinese on WeChat. No, it doesn’t seem racist, unless you mean it’s racist to appropriate Chinese memes?

      Can chinese people not do racist ignorant things? I’ve known many ethnic minorities to make racist charicatures of their own race, I don’t really see your point

          Your evidence that i’m brainwashed is that I think a yellow, slow, lazy bear is kind of a weird portrayal of a chinese man?

          Xi is a dictator and evil, I believe that, in fact, you know very little about my beliefs… I don’t think the fact that I think it’s weird to call chinese people yellow means i’m brainwashed, and the fact that that’s what you’d jump to over such a small difference of opinion indicates to me that YOU are in fact brainwashed.

          I think you all go into anti-tankie mode whenever someone says anything you disagree with.

        Well, when a Chinese person tells me it’s racist and they’re offended, I’ll stop using it. Not really interested in what some white, probably American middle-aged dude cosplaying an armchair communist for the aesthetics thinks is offensive.

          weird that you’re making so many assumptions about me to feel okay with something kinda bigoted.

          edit: I really don’t get it… he’s a yellow squinty eyed slow stupid lazy bear

            He’s yellow, you got that right. And that’s the only thing. He’s not squinty, slow, stops, or lazy. Similarly, Obama isn’t orange and bouncy.

              Poohs defining characteristic is being gluttonous and lazy… that’s why he says oh bother about everything, and i’ve certainly never seen him be intelligent… i guess the anthropomorphic bear is capable of speech and that qualifies?

              None of that really matters to me, honestly, him being yellow is simply enough.

            Winnie is a bear that can talk. That is in no way stupid. He’s an adorable blonde bear and everyone loves him.

            I don’t even see the insult.

            His eyes are literally two black dots. I have no idea where you get “squinty eyed” from.

              I don’t see it either, beyond the fact that he’s yellow, I don’t get the joke, it simply seems like the joke is that he’s yellow, lazy and stupid.

              I’m fine with lazy and stupid, but not when it’s paired with yellow.

                That’s not the joke… The joke is that shepooh looks like Winnie and obama looks like like the tiger in the pictures. That’s the origin of the joke.

            I don’t need to make the assumptions to feel okay with it, the assumptions are just for fun on the side. I don’t need to justify myself to you, and you failed to make me feel bad about it in the first place.

            Now I bet you need a hug, come here.
