South Blonde 6,160 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 There's no reason to be offended honestly. It was a Japanese designer's piece so why complaining? Maybe they thought she can't disguise Japan from Korea. What a mess... Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

uo111 5,261 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 yes, that is why the japanese people are offended. if you read the actual article, you'll see that. Except that it isn't racially insensitive and their "reporting" makes false claims. Of course it can be read as a response to the Japanese people too, really it's a response to everyone who thought that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article is just a copy and paste. So calling it reporting is laughable to begin with. The racially insensitive and racism claims are completely false. It's not just the title, it's the only original sentence that they came up with. And everything about it is 100% wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And everything about it is 100% wrong. hold up, i used the word reporting because they literally are reporting it, even if from another source, which i was aware of. i didn't say they were exercising journalistic prowess in their article or call it a piece of journalism. you're being pedantic and that's useless. there are no racism claims. did you read the article? they're relaying the opinion of those japanese people, and if you read the article (regardless of who wrote it, and since it wasn't originally written by ontd, she couldn't possible be educating them for an opinion that isn't necessarily theirs), not just the title (which is admittedly broad) - you said there were false claims but only mention one which isn't even made in the article.

I read the article a while ago from the actual source. The tweet is false, and makes false claims. I don't understand why you think I care about what the article says when the person who tweeted the article obviously didn't take the time to read it while they were copy and pasting it.

I don't understand why you think I care about what the article says when the person who tweeted the article obviously didn't take the time to read it while they were copy and pasting it. the tweet is the title of an article referring to japanese people feeling that gaga's attire was racially insensitive. you ought to care about the article if you care about being accurate in what we're discussing. and i can be pedantic too - a person's opinion on whether or not something is racist is not the same as making multiple false claims about something.

Gov Hooka 8,008 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 she's not dragging oh no they didn't. ONTD is reporting on the japanese fans who are complaining. her response can only logically be to the people (the japanese people) who are offended. i doubt her japanese fans really care about this. meanwhile the only "offended" people are just a couple of butthurt users on an online forum. sounds familiar when you consider GGD.
