‘Racist’ Fox News piece blasted by Asian-Americans and people with basic sense of decency
What followed was pretty much every tired, offensive Asian stereotype you could fit into five minutes of television.
There were gongs. “Kung Fu Fighting” played in the background. At one point, they played a random clip of Mr. Miyagi (who, by the way, was fictional and Japanese).
Watters asks a few stupid questions like, “Do you know karate?” (also Japanese) and “Is it the year of the dragon?” (It’s the year of the monkey.)
Of course we already have ample evidence on this board that Trump’s base is not the “basic sense of decency” demographic.[/quote]
Saw that. Stuff like this doesn’t make me mad. It’s stupid, and it’s more of reflection of the stupidity and ignorance of the people saying this, usually people of low class and low character, people that I call trash and would never give the time and day to. At the end of the day, dumb people like this who are in un-important and insignificant positions in life don’t affect my kid’s opportunities, or my kid’s future. So if they want to be a dumbass, well be my guest.
What I do care about are the people who are in office or running for office or positions of influence who do this. And it doesn’t matter which party they are from. There were plenty of CA politicians that really screwed up when it came to SCA-5. And there are many politicians that are screwing up now at the national level from the opposite party. So, sometimes you just got to know when to pick your fights. All this points to is the virtues of people who are moderates in the middle.
