    Not sure why Winnie the poo is marked as racism when it specifically refers to one person and has nothing to do with that persons race

      Not sure why rothschild conspiracies are marked as antisemitism when they specifically refer to one family and have nothing to do with that family’s judaism

        Honestly seeking explanation because this is new to me and I’m afraid to Google it. What is “winnie” a dogwhistle for?

        There’s too damn many conservative dogwhistles these days.

          It’s from a South Park episode. It isn’t racist, or at least it wasn’t, Hong Kong protesters and Tiwan use it regularly. It’s just making fun of Xi Jinping as an individual.

            Oh the Winnie the Pooh comic thing. I laughed at that, but didn’t realize it was turning into a bigger thing. Got it.

      Not sure why $oro$ is marked as racism when it specifically refers to one person and has “nothing to do” with that person’s race.

      Really makes you think.

      nothing to do with that persons race

      Oh, really? Comparing an Chinese man to a yellow skinned character has nothing to do with race?

        Comparing a Chinese man who looks like Winnie the Pooh to Winnie the Pooh has nothing to do with his race yes.
