    I wasn't saying that about the color... Asians aren't even yellow... wtf is your stuff about saying Chinese are yellows ??? Is that an American thing ?

        In OP's defense, is it possible that they were referencing the Xi as Winnie the Pooh meme? Pooh is in fact yellow and is ostensibly an animal.

        I dunno, I wasn't there for the larger context, but it seems at least possible that this is what happened.

        I will take my downvotes now.

          Are you telling me you have never in your life heard the term "Yellow Peril"?

            In other parts of the post OP claims to be the pinnacle of political understanding, yet is ignorant on very basic racist terminology used in our political history. Iconic.
