A Finnish edgelord posting racist memes on a Canadian instance. Truly one of the moments of all time.
“Tigger”
Yeah, real subtle.
Isn’t that how it’s spelled in the book?
Yes, but applying the word “Tigger” to a black man in this context … well, you do the math.
This I agree was intentional
You may notice that Tigger in the book does not refer to a black person.
Fair
For the left side I get that the joke is that Asians are yellow and Tigger sounds like the n-word, but what’s the link between Putin and piglet?
Let’s see:
-
Pig/swine is insulting
-
Putin is rather shorter than many other “world leaders”, AFAIK he’s about 173 cm
-
It’s just an attempt to further draw out the stale “joke” about Winnie
Piglet is Winnie the Pooh’s best friend. In conjunction to depict Putin as an emasculated male, as anxious, timid, and runt of the litter Piglet.
Reading into a racist forum troll’s comment like I’m in English class.
Also the internet has decided Piglet is an armadillo and I can’t unsee it.

aside from what Shrike said, a very farfetched guess: “orc” is used as a slur for Russians and orcs are sometimes depicted as bipedal pigs
happy bread day!!
Thanks! (lemmy has bread days?)
Reddit said cakeday, but people need bread. It was yesterday methinks
Well I’m glad to be one of the senior members of Lemmygrad now 😇
This reminds me of one old polish parody of Winnie the Pooh where Tiger was constantly high as fuck on unearthly mix of drugs and booze.

Notes:
-
It’s made probably by some teenager for teenagers so it’s mostly cringy
-
It’s in polish and very specifically polish from over 20 years ago
-
Since it’s so old there is no relation to Xi Jinping
