    Ok, it really sounds like you are stuck in the skin color as an easy way to say it is racist but like… He kinda looks similar

    Like it’s not hard to see where people are pulling it from, sure it’s meant to be inflammatory and hurtful but you have a somewhat heavy set man with big chubby cheeks and tiny lips, a buttony nose that almost looks like Winnie the Pooh’s upside down if it was flesh toned. His pupils are incredibly dark but small giving the same sort of small eyes underneath curving eyebrows.
    And to wrap it all together Xi wears high wasted pants trying to cover his pot belly that almost looks like he is wearing a short shirt that puts it on display. They do look like… Just a little alike. Like Elijah wood and Daniel Radcliffe, they don’t really look alike but also it’s not hard to see why people put the 2 together. Especially with the right photo or look.

    Is it meant to be a bit insulting to compare him to a pantless stuffed bear… Yeah. Duh. But dude Winnie the Pooh is adorable and if he leaned into that he could have been seen as a sweet softie instead of a guy who’s will jail people for saying it.
