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.

          yeah it’s censored because of racism, that’s an amazingly insightful and smart take! you sure showed that dirty racist what-for, i bet they’ll think twice before posting a picture of a cartoon next time. you’re a really good spokesperson for your political beliefs, and you DEFINITELY aren’t coming across like a child right now!

            Do you want to enlighten me about what’s funny about depicting a Chinese man as a yellow cartoon bear? Why not a panda? Why specifically a yellow bear?

            Why do you think it’s censored to begin with?

            There’s little point in interacting with a tankie, ignore and report, and move on.

              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?
