This was on a thread about lionfish, with literally nothing to do with China. What the fuck is wrong with some people?

    These are the kids who grew up pulling their eyes narrow and doing the whole "Ching-chong bing-bong" bit

      Yes they did. And the adults thought it was funny and harmless too.

      These are the kids that bullied me and now post performative blm posts saying they couldn't imagine being racist

        "Bro, it's not racist to make fun of the Yellow Menace"

        "Bro, be cool, I'm making fun of Mexicans, not whatever Spanish you are"

        "Bro, chill, I'm just doing the Eddie Murphy bit about N-Words"

        My greatest regret in life is that I only punched one of these guys in the face.

          I wish I was someone who can like come up with an insult or throw a punch whenever someone is racist to me.

          I'm kinda overly sensitive so I just end up saying nothing and trying not to cry

            I'm really only brave when I have a beer or two, otherwise I am kind of in the same boat

            That being said, I am working out more so I can afford to be braver these days
