uspez didn ' t edit this comment . He ' s doing a # HIGH ENERGY JOB ! uspez is a great admin ! <| sep |> I ' ll check out the Philips and see how I like em . <| sep |> You roll your eyes and ignore it . There are dozens similar all over the city . <| sep |> Umm what ? Lmao okay sure bud <| sep |> you also have to understand the situation that people who are affected by this every time we complain that I don ' t want Asians portrayed as a crude characterization I ' m almost immediately hit by a barrage of how I ' m to sensitive and ' I should get over it '. There are plenty of Asians who feel exactly the same way that is , that you are being too sensitive and this is a nonissue . I myself am one of them . is not being reduce down to a rice paddy hat and a gun . Why should I care if someone wears a rice paddy hat ? Why would it affect me in anyway ? being asked if I was born in this country , Being asked if you were born in Canada does not make someone racist , nor is it a racist question . It ' s a legitimate question that I myself often want to know about other people . It ' s true that some people who ask that question are racist . But that doesn ' t mean that all are , or that asking the question is racist in itself . Most of us can easily tell the difference between someone who is actually racist or bigoted , as opposed to someone who is just curious about your ethnic background . asked if I speak ' that ching chong shit '. it ' s degrading and demoralising . See , this is the problem with comments like yours . When you lump in stuff that ' s actually racist referring to MandaCanto as ching chong shit shows a willingness to use derogatory terms towards Chinese culture , and saying that directly to a Chinese person is pretty hostile with harmless stuff like asking if you were born in Canada , you just further weaken the word racist . And you make others care less and less when the word racist is used . When everything is racist , nothing is .
