• i am not racist! [insert african leader] just happens to look like a monkey! i am not racist i swear!!!

      same energy. you should do some self criticism. just because western society normalized casual racism against “permitted enemies” doesnt make it okay.

        Somebody compares your dear supreme dictator to a cartoon bear. You: “You are racist against all Chinese”.

        Even after others clarify that it’s against one person, you have your ears plugged and crying racism. You know what it sounds like? A scripted act to pretend that you’re morally right. In fact, I have seen this so many times. It’s from your masters’ propaganda playbook, isn’t it?

      No, I am not racist. I just think this Chinese person looks like a yellow animal, but let me just pretend is this one person, so it is okay with others not to call me out on my racism. /s

      I bet it is also okay to say that African leaders I don’t like look like other kinds of primates /s.

      Since I don’t like them it must be okay to be racist towards them /s

      This is what happen when people are not taught critical race theory. They don’t even know that they are being racist 🤦🏾‍♂️

        Wow! The amount of dishonesty in your words is staggering. Nobody pretended that it was against one person - they mentioned only one person. You’re the one who twisted their words and pretended that it’s against an entire race. In fact, you are the only one who mentioned the Chinese race here.

        And the racist tirade against Africans. They didn’t say that - you did. You made a racist insult in order to argue that others are racist. To be honest, no one else here is anywhere close to a racist as you are.

        And please stop hiding behind ridiculous accusations of racism. It’s an extremely common and cheap tactic employed by autocrats to misdirect.
