How would you answer this, and how would you expect Chinese netizens on Xiaohongshu to answer?

I will link to the thread in the comments because I want you to take a moment and think about it first.

    You’re free to elaborate on the humor of satarizing a Chinese man as a yellow cartoon bear. Calling me a “tankie” for thinking that maybe we shouldn’t be using potentially racist caricatures doesn’t make much sense to me personally.

        You were giving sympathetic advice to someone defending the racist caricature you claim to oppose, so pardon me for interpreting it that way. As for “defending Xi a little too much,” what does that constitute? Saying people shouldn’t use racist caricatures against him?
