.carolineframke writes about how Hollywood is complicit in the violence against Asians in America: “Reducing Asians to flat, heavily accented caricatures is a favorite pastime in this country, and has been for decades.”

” hired before his history of racist “comedy” — particularly and viciously against Asians — got him fired days later. His initial defense was a classic for comedians who get any pushback: that he was sorry “if” he offended anyone, but he was just doing his job by pushing boundaries. I disagreed, calling his attempts bad and boring for repeating exhausted stereotypes in search of knee-jerk laughs. In response, his fans called me a joyless cunt.

The most glaring recent example came from the very top. Just about every time Donald Trump spoke about COVID-19 as president of the United States, he deliberately avoided using the word “coronavirus” when he could instead say “Chinese.” At rallies, he’d practically wink at the omnipresent camera as he called the virus the “kung flu.” Hate crimes against Asian-Americans immediately spiked, but to the people in charge with the biggest platforms in the world, it didn’t matter.

carolineframke Do you ever come up for air?

carolineframke Yo change this art fam WTF

carolineframke Nice try. But

carolineframke Nice try. But you can’t blame a show like FamilyGuyonFOX for something like that. Reducing intense content into something dry, literal and reduced takes away the emotional reaction. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. Teach your kids to have a better reaction to TV.

carolineframke I have Asian friends that have been harassed. After this past weekend's shooting rampage in Atlanta, which was demonstrably motivated by hate, perhaps this episode belongs in the trash?

carolineframke The joke was Quagmire is a rapist.

carolineframke The mfer drove to different parlors looking for Asian women cause those places la Jed security making them an easy target. Just like the Capitol stormers this racyst guy possibly organize this online somehow.

carolineframke No reducing white male racyst anger that now you’re just excusing with misplaced article is typical cracka a$$ Hollywood. But if it were a crime against lgbtq under the same auspices you’d call it out for what it is, a hate crime by a racist white guy

carolineframke A racist joke doesnt mean you are racist or hate anyone, that's why it's called a joke..
