    I hope I’m not overstepping, but the title low-key feels racist considering the stereotype. Anyway, aren’t we all kinda forced to learn math?

      Of course it’s racist. Don’t you remember the Winnie the Pooh thing? Where “haha yellow character chinese hahaha”?

        The Winnie the Pooh thing was so confusing to me as I didn’t get the connection. I love Winnie and it blows he was used to be racist.

        Didn’t the whole “Xi looks like Pooh” thing start out as a harmless meme from Chinese citizens though? Wasn’t it Western social media that co-opted it and turned it into a racist caricature?

          Maybe, but I’m taking about after this. And it’s sad, because Pooh is actually a very sweet and caring character, to be converted into that…

          At first it was used comparing Obama and Xi with a picture of Winnie and the tiger walking.

      China is best country in math, therefore to show sufficient liberal ideological purity of thought and methods, western libs will now become antimath. Good riddance i would say.

    • I would imagine that almost every anti-China liberal, including the author, is almost certainly racist against Chinese people aside from the “good ones” who oppose the evil CCP. Same applies for the DPRK
