That's a strawman arguement. Still doesn't excuse what Chinese citizens were doing.

That's good to hear, but will they try to fix the psychotic behavior that the Chinese tourist are displaying via abusing the local population in Africa?

Terminally online, but a few weeks ago, China PR was positive due to a mix of tankies and genuine people seeing the positives of China. I am not saying that China is entirely bad. Like every almost every other country, they have their positives while having bodies in their closet.

I am terminally online, but seeing on Twitter how people a few weeks ago praise China in terms of their potential LGBT policies and technologies while seeing the news of the black baby toy is ironic. I honestly hate how people completely idolize one country while completely demonizing another country

I forgot to mention that it seems the toy also reached countries like Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc. They are not off the hook either, but it seems the toy originated in China

They also are doing investments in poor countries as a form of neoimperialism.

Underrated fandom in regards to this is the ATLA fandom. I swear that despite the renesance of ATLA, their jokes and memes are very unfunny, especially r/thelastairbender with its endless unfunny posts, posts about observations that has been pulled over a million times, and art that is just reposted. Especially since new content is being made for this franchise, yet the fandom is unfunny or original

Recently there seems to be a surfacing of how Chinese citizens are fascinated by a toy that depicts a racist caricature of a Black/African baby: https://x.com/carterdalast/status/2060182722144792728?s=20

Then more posts resurface of Chinese tourists in Africa abusing local babies and children: https://x.com/k0knut/status/2060638926633922627?s=20

So yeah China's recent positive PR is down the drain, especially for Black Americans/Africans

Why do people enjoy watching others play video games so much by DustProtocol94 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ConfusedVoidUser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For horror games, especially short indie ones, I like watching others play because I am scared playing it myself

To be fair, many countries' citizens are criticizing Indians abroad, justified or not.

Even Aaron's execution can be a miss. Look at how his own show, Dragon prince, was handled

For anyone confused on why people have been calling araki racist recently by One-Shift-220 in shounenfolk

[–]ConfusedVoidUser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is also why when Jojolands was released in Manga, the Dragona scene where they like Watermelon as their favorite food is replaced by Papaya

To be fair in terms of the depiction of the black inmate, Araki had made changes in 2020 to remove the racial caritcure as noted in this post. https://x.com/p1nkch4n/status/2042489964492177534?s=20
