You’re looking for caricature and not only can you not spell it but you clearly don’t know what it means.
Well let’s see. Say you depict a Chinese person as
-
A scammer
-
Someone who gets so triggered at the mention of Taiwan that they drop everything else
-
Someone who spells “fuck” like “fuk”
I would say that that fits the definition pretty damn well.
Everything else you’ve said is also false
Ooh, neat line. Everything else you said is false too. Real time saver.

I mean yeah if you’re making your own definitions up for words you can call anything anything lmfao. China Post has been recently used in massive numbers to commit scams/fraud. The joke is rooted in reality because this has been happening recently. Anyone with a brain knows all Chinese people aren’t scammers. That same brain haver would recognize the silly aspect that they spell a word like parcel/arrive correctly then misspell fuck.

Oh, I see. Your position is that it’s not a stereotype, on the basis that Chinese people really are scammers.

What was the sentence after that lmao you’re terrible at this.
Objection@lemmy.ml 15 hours ago
The sentence after that was the one where you maintained plausible deniability. Which is, I suppose, one other thing that’s different. You’re a bit more mask-on than the 1800’s racists were.
The punchline is still racism though.
