Pluto is a planet, Columbus discovered America, deoxygenated blood is blue, camels store water in their humps, gum stays inside you for 7 years if you swallow it, the Great Wall is visible from space, the tongue has individual zones for detecting flavors, and Iraq definitely has WMDs.

Don't fault them for misunderstanding. After all, we can only actually use 10% of our brain.

Yeah, why is a heavily sanctioned island nation still reliant on oil? They should just make solar panels! It really is quite unusual and problematic to still require fossil fuels in this day and age. With a population about the size of Ohio, their country sure is significant contributor to climate change. I'm sure they'll be just fine without oil.

Yeah, everyone seeing this knows the poster's heritage, favorite food, and post address.

There is a difference between "Chinese families" and "my Chinese family". Maybe you would understand if "Chinese" was replaced with "Black".

It's just plain bigotry.

So are we just going to ignore the bit about "Chinese families" then? Seems like a rather broad racial generalization, and the poster is quite clearly implying their belief in some negative stereotype.

Your response doesn't even make sense, unless you are proposing that all "Chinese families" are actually CCP officials?
