    His shirt being red referencing the PRC is actually a great non-racist visual connection. And of course they wouldn’t suddenly switch to another caricature; the meme is Pooh, so that’s what they’re going to use.

      The thing with the shirt is that it places greater emphasis on the visuals. If we accept that there’s in some cases a connection to the shirt, we can also accept that that means there is certainly connection to the yellow bear. “Yellowface” is already a known concept.
