    It's literally a picture of a Chinese man who is a democratically elected politician in a country of over a billion people with his skin tinted yellow. I don't care if it originated from a meme by a Chinese person, it's overwhelmingly used now by racist white westerners, thus making it a racist caricature.

        Spoken like someone who absolutely does not understand how China's democracy works. They don't go to the ballot box every 4 years to vote for one old white rich ghoul vs the other old white rich ghoul. Their electoral system works different. But more importantly it actually works, unlike ours.
