How would you answer this, and how would you expect Chinese netizens on Xiaohongshu to answer?

I will link to the thread in the comments because I want you to take a moment and think about it first.

    You’re free to elaborate on the humor of satarizing a Chinese man as a yellow cartoon bear. Calling me a “tankie” for thinking that maybe we shouldn’t be using potentially racist caricatures doesn’t make much sense to me personally.

      I do not call you a tankie for that, as I also oppose racist caricatures. Instead, I call you a tankie because you seem to be defending Xi a little too much. Have a good evening.

        You were giving sympathetic advice to someone defending the racist caricature you claim to oppose, so pardon me for interpreting it that way. As for “defending Xi a little too much,” what does that constitute? Saying people shouldn’t use racist caricatures against him?
