    I understand it’s offensive, but how is comparing Winnie the Poo to Xi racist?

        I’m not really to worried about Fediverse politics. Shits ultimately silly. Everyone will end up in their own weird radicalizing echo chambers soon enough, seems to happen in all social media.

        I just didn’t understand how comparing the president of China to an American cartoon character with no racial connotations was racist.
