In 2011, following the term's offhand use in a March 26 article appearing in The Spectator ("white-coated Jap bloke"), the Minister of the Japanese Embassy in London protested that "most Japanese people find the word 'Japs' offensive, irrespective of the circumstances in which it is used"

No, I said she was drawn like DK, you said that's because she looks like DK. There's a big difference in these statements. Would you agree?

LOL what is it with white people jumping at every opportunity to say the N-word? Is it like cool to say it or what? Does it make you edgy, using it in examples? Like oooo

Because that's what in the cartoon. They drew her exactly like they would draw fucking Donkey Kong.

What? Does not compute.
There are so many ways to draw Serena, and yet they chose to draw her that way. If the language I chose to describe the cartoon was racially charged, do you not believe that may be because the content of the cartoon is racially charged therefore describing it is going to be racially charged, no matter what?

The did draw her like a big stomping ape. The other black girl in the cartoon who IRL didn't do anything, they drew her like a white blonde. Without (Or with only very slight) exaggerated features. That's the entire problem, i.e. the dogwhistle.
