      Otherwise, another person that always get used together as a meme, that’s Obama, a black person is depicted as Tigger, which doesn’t make a damn sense.

      It’s precisely presence of Obama as Tigger (T->N don’t tell me you didn’t see this) which makes me 100% certian that this is very racist picture. Not to mention all the racists posting it around internet.

          Fair enough, i didn’t see it too at first, but when i was told that the Tygrysek is named Tigger in original version it clicked immediately.

      that’s Obama, a black person is depicted as Tigger, which doesn’t make a damn sense.

      Replace the “T” in “Tigger” with “N” and you can probably understand why racists in the anglosphere love these comparisons.

      It’s not racist to give him big teeth and slanty eyes and make him say AH SO that’s just artistic license

      I literally remember chuds back in the day purposely going out of the way to use words that rhymed with the n word when they were talking about Obama and then pretend they weren’t being racist, you’d have to be stupid to not understand how obviously it’s just overt racism.
