One time an Asian family came into the place where I work and one of my managers turned to me and literally started spouting off a bunch of “ching-chong” gibberish. I was like “You know that’s racist as hell, right?” and he immediately started insisting that he wasn’t racist, no way.

The fact that you could turn that into a Bingo game is telling

I don’t even identify* as Asian (I’m half pacific islander, half white) but I get mistaken for “Asian” every now and then. And I can say, JUST as someone who gets mistaken for asian, that the racism is a fucking problem and it’s awful.

plus, ninjas are japanese

That is the picture that should be in the dictionary under secondhand embarrassment.

Yeah, making an ass of yourself is not the same thing as being self deprecating. At least she didn’t tape her eyebrows?

Well, there’s always politics. God knows you already have a law.

I feel a bit torn, because her apology was one of the more sincere sounding “caught being racist/offensive” apologies. It didn’t read like “I’m sorry I got caught” but more “shit I fucked up” which I can appreciate. But then I wonder how this woman thought that this was even a little funny/silly/light hearted. First,…

THANK YOU. THAT WAS BUGGING THE SHIT OUTTA ME.

I have Asian friends and we’ve never addressed if this is offensive or not because I’ve known for years and years not to pretend to be Chinese.

How does a 37 year-old woman in 2016 not know that this is offensive? Sincerely confused by this. And don’t say “Well she grew up around people like this” or “she’s from some idiotic all white town and doesn’t have any non-white friends” because there’s this thing called TV and movies and the news and various other…

I think mixing up different cultures is something they learn in racistgarten.

This is not self deprecating, dum dum. This is deprecating others.

Girl... mocking other people’s stereotyped perceived cultures isn’t self-deprecating.

And she talks about going to Chinatown, which isn’t really ninja territory. Seriously, this bitch.

Oh, look.

The Asian woman, in particular! Fancy that!

It gets worse, wait till you find out what the former Apprentice host did.

Is it just me, or does everyone in that video look SUPER uncomfortable?

Someone associated with The Apprentice is a racist jerk? Golly.
