I was looking for Chinese/Mandarin dubs of spongebob on youtube and half the videos were wildly racist sponge-caricatures…
On a side note I was looking for this because I ran across a hilarious german spongebob communist meme, which made me curious to see the dubs in different languages. The Japanese dub of the Spongebob intro is hilarious—the numbers of syllables don’t fit so it’s completely out of rhythm, and it has so many loanwords it feels like fever dream English.

Not enough racism
All the American liberals around me in my experience get uncomfortable if I so much as praise China’s rail infrastructure and seem to think that Uyghurs have been poured into the concrete or something.
“Flawed democracy” is putting it lightly. Also it seems like everyone talks about MAGA believing Biden rigged the election, but it seems like the sus af primary got memory holed :(
This is amazing. I keep seeing an ad for an entire TV show hosted by Oprah which largely consists of telling people that they’re racist and solving racism by “talking about it.”
Is there more context to this? Like this sounds ridiculous even for the USA. I assume then that he was seeding the articles or otherwise widely distributing them? Not that I think that’s worth a death penalty…
