That white people can’t make it worse. I’ve said it over and over again. So the plane crashes and two girls die, but who cares? Because on this plane were “141 Chinese, 77 South Koreans, 61 Americans, three Canadians, three from India, one Japanese, one Vietnamese and one from France.” (Three people’s nationalities had not been confirmed.)
So let’s roll out the old L/R joke. It’s so original and funny. And so clever. Not to mention appropriate for a tragedy in which lives were lost.
Of course, then hordes of white people will rush to explain that it’s not racist. Some even hasten to give the dictionary definition of “fright.” Because Asians probably don’t understand the meaning of the word.
I already knew the idiots would be out on social media, because we’ve seen time and time again that our lives are just jokes to white people and tragic situations are just waiting for a punchline. But this headline is from one of Chicago’s dailies.

I can hardly believe that paper did something so completely ing stupid. I am not sure why, but I want to say that I am very sorry. I cannot imagine a worse insult.
