Message: [QUOTE="Da_Aisijimo_Gou, post: 2840728, member: 264"] Oh wow, as if we're both not aware of the depiction's possible historic implications in the States. Or, that one of us is unaware of the Aussie's arguable caricature and possible interpretations. Highly likely, one of us has directly witnessed and experienced far more versions and relative levels of acceptance of actual racism in markedly more nations globally. Consequently, the context legitimate racism plays in Japan and other Pacific nations for people of African genetic heritage or other individuals with darker skin tones is understood. For example, Osaka's Haitian father, her maternal family's response to her mother's husband, or in Oz itself. A missed Aussie irony in the cartoon. Clearly, you can carry on with whatever implied portrayal you so choose. And possible sexism or weak parent-ism arguments aside, we can continue agreeing the 37 year old, purported adult's actions were and remain indefensible. [/QUOTE]
