The racist Chinese restaurant jokes from 30+ years ago are still racist when they're about Haitian refugees

I don't think most people have the full context for this and just think Trump was saying something even more batshit than usual, but still - actual people are being terrorized every day because of this shit

And still super racist even when used "ironically" for dunks. I know people want cathartic shots at an asshole, but good grief using radioactive garbage to do it is not the way.

Absolutely. It was pretty confusing to suddenly see a flood of racist, AI-generated images being reposted by people who I expect to be reliably and vigorously opposed to both of those things.
