Disney has gone too far this time
i mean maybe calling chinese people yogurts is just a TINY bit racist
I mean maybe not reading the thread before making stupid comments like this one is a wee bit counterproductive.
Maybe the joke’s too deep for me, but “yoghurts” is in poor taste. This is indistinguishable from a racist post.
The joke might stop being made if westerners stopped mispronouncing it while pretending to care.
Here’s the pronunciation audio. “Ooy-ghur”. (The German and Russian pronunciations seem pretty close to me.) English-speakers say “wee-gur”, which is kinda far from the original, but so is, I dunno, “Japan”, so it’s not a mispronunciation, it’s the official pronunciation being bad.
The joke about people pretending to care when they don’t even know the first thing about Uyghurs is perfectly fair, I just don’t like how it sounds like it’s making fun of the actual name of the people.
I love old Jalopnik
Can’t believe Romania invaded uyghurland smh
Also uyghurland would probably be the name given to that area if it was in Africa and got colonized
Uyghuristan because it’s Turkic? Mongolia and Manchuria are non-Turkic.
Edit: Apparently some Uyghurs, though especially the nationalists, want their country to be known as (East) Turkistan and themselves as Turks or Turkistanis.
