Got it.

So Chinese skin has similar functions to that of a chamaleon.


Or a disco ball lamp, idk.

I wish Chinese and East Asians in general have the same amount of political correctness protection as LGBT folks. Reality is that people can get away with joking about genociding all of China on public TV with no harm to career and East Asians are routinely beaten without said crimes reported as hate crimes.

What would have happened if an Asian kid joked that the solution to inner city violence is to kill all black kids? Here is another fun one? What if some Hispanic kid joked that the solution to wealth inequality is to kill all the rich Jews living in Long Island and spread the wealth among the less privileged. Free speech am I right?

It's because the percentage of East Asians is too small in the US.

Its pretty blatant that there are different levels of racism, with some forms encouraged while others are ruthlessly purged as soon as someone has those incorrect thoughts. That’s why ‘anti-semantism’ is used so often and a label so feared, it allows those in power to know who are doing the wrong kind of racism to weed them out.

Anti-Chinese racism is so deep rooted and entranced in American society and general pop culture that is essentially a core part of American identity.

So much so, the ‘correct’ way to address anti-Asian racism in American pop culture is for the target of the racism to say they are not Chinese. Because racism against Chinese isn’t wrong, it’s only wrong when it’s misdirected at the ‘good’ Asians.

Free speech was always just a way to remove responsibilities from people's mouths. A free "say stupid crap and get away with it" card.
