I don't actually remember how to spell it because whenever I call him Winnie the Pooh it summons the CCP bot army calling that racist and I forget. Maybe this will be the time.

Only a foreign propaganda bot could think I am being racist! i-love-not-thinking

[–] NuclearDolphin@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Yeah but he's yellow and built like a bear.

No, I'm not a reactionary. Why do you ask?

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social -1 points 3 months ago

No, that's just the hexbear part.

No other instance seems to do it.

Yeah I just call this Asian leader yellow so often that when I'm not calling him yellow I call him mr removed, I'm not racist btw

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Man you guys really need to try new things. You damn well know it wasn't because Winnie the Pooh is yellow. And you damn well know it was started in the real China anyway.

[–] Kefla@hexbear.net 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah you're really the best person to prove that this isn't a racist thing, considering how extremely not racist you come across when you aren't calling him a yellow cartoon character

[–] Redacted@lemmy.zip 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They dont say it because hes yellow, they say it because his face is the same shape as winnies, but you know that.

[–] Kefla@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What I know is that this is a bunch of bullshit made up to cover for overt racism

[–] Redacted@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

No it wasnt, it was a meme made in china by chinese people about their chinese leader, if you take offense to the meme take it up with China.

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Except it was intended to be racist because the meme was about Xi being Pooh and Obama being Tigger.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I knew that part, but why was Tigger racist for Obama?

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

Seriously? Think about what rhymes with Tigger. I'm starting to think you aren't the best arbiter of what is or isn't racist.

Chichong Ping is objectively worse

[–] roscoe@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I thought it was a cash register sound with the ping left over for how much he personally benefits from his position.

[–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 1 points 3 months ago

Are you confusing Xi with Deng/Hu?

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

To be fair, I spelled it Xi jingping.

I don't understand how we got Chichong Ping from my missspelling but here we are

[–] SinAdjetivos@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

To be fair, that is how @ToastedRavioli@midwest.social responded to your comment and I assumed it was the same mispelling.

That's my bad for not checking, sorry.

It is racist, you are racist
