Why is it that extremists like you perpetuate the yellow = asians racism thing far more than anyone else?
has this take ever worked for you chuds? take a long walk off a short pier.
They were the only one who used the term. They might've been calling someone else out, but they did it using racist terminology that no one else was using. In doing so they sacrificed the high ground they're attempting to lord over from.
When I first saw a hexbear user say it, it took me a moment to figure out what they meant. I was like "oh yeah, yellow was a racist way of referring to Asian people, from like 50 years ago". Way to keep racism alive, congratulations.
Every accusation a confession.
I'm Chinese, and I live in a country town in the West.
Trust me, it's not Hexbear keeping racism alive.
I've been called yellow on multiple, multiple occasions. Do you actually think white people have ceased calling us yellow???
50 years ago? Try last month.
Yeah and you obviously haven't read anything about race for 50 years
I hope you always feel embarrassed about this moment, holy shit I can't believe you posted this
Damn, you are so fucking smart.
You sound like the kind of white person who would lecture black people on the use of the N-word.
