If anyone made a career off of making fun of Asian stereotypes, its Margaret Cho.

You’re absolutely right that Swinton shouldn’t have asked Cho about this, but that’s only because Cho is a gaping asshole and nobody should ever ask her anything about anything.

I love how white people are always the ones who need to “learn” something in these scenarios.

figure out for themselves what they can do to make the world less racist. It. Is. Not. Our. Job.

So, if you’re Asian and you betray someone’s confidence because they’re terribly ignorant about a situation that offends you, free pass?

Maybe it was unfair, but also unfair that roles are regularly rewritten and given to white actors, and no one is ever actually responsible for this. Cho’s fed up, and I get why.

Yes, Margaret Cho is an awful person. That’s what you’re missing.

I’m having difficulty understanding Margaret Cho’s perspective here.

Do you really think I present this asshole persona when I’m trying to get laid? It takes six months of a relationship before I actually reveal my politics.
