Is this racist in your opinion?

Question

Answer

I don't see how an ornament depicting an Asian person is racist??

So an ornament of a little white girl with blonde hair and blue eyes would be racist?
Or an African American ornament with dark skin and black curly hair?

The problem with racism is the people who see it in everything.

Answer

It reminds me of the mushroom dancers in Fantasia...I don't think it's racist.

Answer

Asians be loving slanty eyed trinkets like this. My grandma's house is covered in stuff like this 😂

Answer

No it's not racist. Unrealistic? Yes. Racist? No. Some Asians even depict themselves like this so I don't see the problem. It's just an ornament.

Answer

Honestly I think it would depend on where/who made it? Like, if it was made somewhere in Asia by someone who is Asian intended for Asian consumers then I wouldn't say it is racist. If it was, say, made by a non-Asian person thinking "this is how all Asians look" then it may be racist.

Answer

It's weird if nothing else

Answer

Some of the Asian countries I've been to sell little things that look a lot like these and the locals seemed to like them, so I probably would think it's fine? It doesn't look like it's intended to be overly stereotypical or anything, but there are some of those out there, and I think they'd probably be considered pretty racist, so best to just be careful anyway.

Answer

To me I see this as culture.

Answer

Honestly it reminds me of a more simplistic antique asian painting style. That, and the way my less than gifted neice used to draw everyone of any race...

Answer

It's kinda creepy if it's going to be where kids are gonna see it
