I wanna read into this of course, but I like how he singled out that Yuki is Japanese. He knows that the Japanese are hard working and commited! Unlike those South Americans!

Racist ole clown literally cannot help himself lol

[–] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can see that the quote cuts out text. You are making up shit to get upset about.

Dude I can call that guy a racist clown 20 times today and I'll be right 20 times

[–] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Then call him a racist for the things he says. Not the shit you make up.

Lol right on bud, keep defending him

[–] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not defending him. Stop with the projecting, not a good look.

[–] hypnotoad__@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How am I projecting by calling a racist, a racist?

Because you're making up shit to get upset over. And then doubling down when called out.

The sentence is almost certainly β€œYuki is an up and coming Japanese’s Driver” and the quote was intentionally shortened to make it sound more racist than it was (which is not at all)

[–] Squeak@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But why did he metion Yuki is Japanese, but not Danny Ric being and Aussie or Lawson being a New Zealander?

[–] ZickZack@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

It's because this article is garbage: of you watch the original German video what he says is

Yuki is ein junger, aufstrebender, vor allem der beste Japaner.

Which translates to

Yuki is a young rising star and the best Japanese driver.

Which reads more like referring to iwasa who is also in the RB juniors program.

Probably, yeah. Which is why I wrote "I want to read into this" :P
