LOL - like I said I could care LESS what you think of me. I am educated, classy, savvy , independent, down to earth and a total sweetheart. We are all entitled to our opinions - that's why this is the lounge - you think its racist - I don't . You think I'm being racist by saying I don't think its racist - and that's ok because what I was saying if you read my post is that they did not intentionally try to be racist ; that is just how the public ( Asian population mainly) saw it. Therefore someone posted a thread on here asking if anyone finds it racist and who doesn't and OF COURSE the people who don't think its racist get blasted LOL.

Like I said lighten it was a tasteless harmless event done by students honoring a song - they have apologized , said it was unintentional and have moved on - I'm just saying maybe people on here should too.

But you said this earlier ..."in my opinion the ONLY reason RACISM still exists is because people keep CHOOSING to call harmless tasteless things like this and deem them as "RACIST" when in reality it was just in good fun... lighten up people." So... were you not claiming that real racism doesn't exist? LOL...so the KKK is just good fun?

if you read that part of my post you would see I am saying the only reason racism exists is because people take jokes like this and call it racist. When it was NEVER meant to be taken like that.

I never support the KKK and I cant even remember the last time I heard of them until now. You guys are trying to get a rise out of me.
How is it working for u? I am sitting here laughing because my point is so easy to comprehend but you guys are just trying to cause drama . Kind of pathetic if you ask me.
 
It is not racist ... but it is tasteless.

The original reason for the Amigos Stir Fry theme was to attract young Asian clients to the bar, a main demographic in the area. Problem was they never asked any Asian people for their POV, but I'm guessing that is not the only problem with the management at this place.

The media does the exact same thing. They take the opinion of just a couple of people who are offended and then make it look like the entire Chinese community is up in arms. All this bullshit just to sell a few extra newspapers
 
It was distasteful and not a good idea.

The pic shared by the OP is pretty much like dressing up in black face because he went so far as with the squinting, eye brows and mustache.

It's one thing to wear clothes of another culture but it is another when you start adding stereotypes to it.

For example, it's one thing to dress up in lederhosen (sorry spelling) for octoberfest. It would be another if you also ran around in that costume goose stepping and screaming in fake german imitating hitler from those meme videos.

So if a girl wants to wear one of those tight silk dresses great for an Asian themed party. But if she puts on an accent and starts saying "me love you long time" that's wrong.

I also recall a story about certain t shirts being pulled as they were for St Patrick's day and it implied that irish are drunks.

Anyways, it's a slippery slope to say that Halloween will go by the wayside as there are still plenty of costume choices other than stereotypes.

Imagine if a place wanted to attract more blacks with watermelon and chicken night and everyone was encouraged to dress "urban"
 
exactly.. this event was not racist it was TASTELESS - there is a huge difference. The media probably found under ten people who were offended and then ran a story accusing them of racism. Its so sad what the world is coming too.

As another person pointed out you can be racist without meaning/intending to do so.

As I said previously the worst form of racism is when people act racist without knowing they are. What it means is that they are inherently racist ... it is their nature and they can’t help but always be racist and they think there is nothing wrong with the way they act or what they say. At least the people who are intentionally racist know that they are.
You don’t have to be part of the race that is mocked and degraded to be offended by racism. You just have to have a sense of decency.
Those that are uneducated and not very intelligent at least have an excuse for their ignorance. Those that are “educated, classy, savvy” do not.

No way
WORST form of racism is when a non minority spends his life as a SJW LOOKING for covert racism in everything (see above thread)

LOL aw how cute ! another one trying to make me feel bad about myself. I'm sorry but to me the only ones who are "racist" here are the ones on this thread calling the people who disagree "racist" The people at the event have already stated that it was not meant to be racist. so how about you take the stick out of your ass and move on?

Like I said this drama makes me laugh lmao..

I don't like Indian food,... it tastes really bad !!!
 
A comment or action can be considered racist but the indivivual(s)responsible for the comment or action may not in fact be racist. They could be naive, insensitive or just plain stupid. If the comment or action is considered offensive by those that are closely associated with it and they deem it racist, then most likely it is. As an Asian individual, do I think the picture is racist. Yes and no. Mostly, I just think the person(s) responsible for it showed an extreme lack of judgement. I do know one thing, any business that uses a picture like this, I would personally never visit their establishment.
