Hmm… how does the Han Chinese dictator of China relate to the ethnonationalist policies of the Chinese government, which promotes the Han over other ethnic groups and outright oppresses other ethnic groups…

You know, I’ll have to ponder that for a while and get back to you on it because you’re right, I just don’t see a direct line.

You still haven’t referenced Pooh Bear. I share your confusion.

Sorry… your issue here is that there is not a direct link between A. A. Milne’s Winnie the Pooh character and a Chinese ethnonationalist state?

TLDR: Squid, again, you’re arguing my point. I do not support Xi or the attribution of racism when I call him Pooh Bear. That’s offensive…to racists.

I think you might want to read @Antmz22@lemm.ee 's original comment to me that i’m responding to.

Ignoring the racism…yes, China has been very clear they don’t wish to use their military

I’m asking them to clarify the point how Pooh Bear is directly racist against the Han people and not just a derogatory term directed squarely at Xi Jinping.

I am fully aware of China’s ethnographic makeup and policies, especially those of a certain Han Dynasty way back when. But here’s the article I posted to them and now I post to you.
