I thought the Zenz emote was for like mocking anti-china stuff obviously written by him and not about how he looked?

I’ve seen it used for the latter often

hmm silly people would use it that way, I think it’s original intention was to mock Zenz for being literally the only source china watchers keep citing to attack the country.

Ive def seen people dunk on him for how he looks. One post in particular stood out to me where they were like “anyone who looks like this :zenz:” :cringe:

There was an old thread with exactly this same struggle session and the point made about Zens look is that it is not just his face but the clothing choices, his glasses and his haircut.

He definitely has a stereotypical look but the point is apart from his face he can change all of those things.

Haircut? Grow his hair. Weirdo glasses? Wear contacts. worse case try different frames. Shitty clothing? He certainly isn’t a working class person struggling to make ends meet, if he can afford a nice suit he can afford a better suit.

I don’t see any problem in critiquing those things. If you didn’t know who that person is supposed to be he looks like any normal white male with a shitty fashion sense that happens to look like certain other people with the same shitty fashion sense. None of that is inherent to him as a human being.
