      The first appearance of the meme is one with Barack Obama. Can you please remind us to what character he was compared to, that has a phonetically similar name to a racial slur? Do you deny that the yellow skin color is not a sinophobic trope?

      Not sure what you see when the Winnie xi meme gets postet, but I hardly ever see substantiative critique of power, but a endless redditism of how the Chinese are inferior and OP usually staying silent on the sinophobia in the comment section.

      It’s a sinophobic dogwhistle.
