CHYNA frothingfash

Feels like back in the 90's people were a bit more chill and didn't go into a genocidal lunatic rage at the mere mention of the country. Wild to think people used to get down with hong kong action movies.

    It crashed in 1991, but I think the yellow scare lasted into the mid 90s for some people. I remember my parents always acting like stuff made in Japan was inferior to American made products.

      Hell I remember it in the late 90s and even early 2000s with the Pokemon satanic panic.

      Southpark literally made an episode at the time [Racism, dick shaming]

      spoiler

      where Pokemon was a weird thing Japan was using to brainwash kids. I forget the details, but there is a scene where the Japanese CEO's of Pokemon or whatever talk about (voiced by a white dude doing a very racist Japanese accent) how "Japan have small penis"

        Matt Parker and Trey Stone are such fucking shitheads. I hope they're miserable sitting on their pile of money

        I swear to God nobody thinks as much about the penises of other men as much as ostensibly straight white men.
