This makes so little sense, I don't think it even counts as racism.

It's about all the gore videos coming from China where their shit breaks down and people are killed or maimed, all sort of wild traffic videos and so on

Those used to come out of India. I guess everyone is outsourcing now.

A lot of effort for a tortured Command and Conquer joke

So I wasn't the only one that read "China will grow larger" and immediately thought of C&C Generals Zero Hour lol

definitely still counts as racism.

I'm not the intended audience, I guess. I get the pollution stereotype, but all the dead baby references went over my head. It's as if someone was writing a bunch of stereotypes about America, and there were some Freedom Unit references so you almost get it, but then there are also a bunch of references to dead orangutans and you're like: what?

I'd also say so. The last sentence puts the whole thing in relation to people with a chinese accent not the nation of China. Regardless of what they think of China. It's subtle though since it only happens in the last sentence. That just makes it more devious though
