    Well, when a Chinese person tells me it’s racist and they’re offended, I’ll stop using it. Not really interested in what some white, probably American middle-aged dude cosplaying an armchair communist for the aesthetics thinks is offensive.

      weird that you’re making so many assumptions about me to feel okay with something kinda bigoted.

      edit: I really don’t get it… he’s a yellow squinty eyed slow stupid lazy bear

        Winnie is a bear that can talk. That is in no way stupid. He’s an adorable blonde bear and everyone loves him.

        I don’t even see the insult.

        His eyes are literally two black dots. I have no idea where you get “squinty eyed” from.

          I don’t see it either, beyond the fact that he’s yellow, I don’t get the joke, it simply seems like the joke is that he’s yellow, lazy and stupid.

          I’m fine with lazy and stupid, but not when it’s paired with yellow.

            That’s not the joke… The joke is that shepooh looks like Winnie and obama looks like like the tiger in the pictures. That’s the origin of the joke.

        He’s yellow, you got that right. And that’s the only thing. He’s not squinty, slow, stops, or lazy. Similarly, Obama isn’t orange and bouncy.

          Poohs defining characteristic is being gluttonous and lazy… that’s why he says oh bother about everything, and i’ve certainly never seen him be intelligent… i guess the anthropomorphic bear is capable of speech and that qualifies?

          None of that really matters to me, honestly, him being yellow is simply enough.

        I don’t need to make the assumptions to feel okay with it, the assumptions are just for fun on the side. I don’t need to justify myself to you, and you failed to make me feel bad about it in the first place.

        Now I bet you need a hug, come here.
