Is this song racist against Orientals?

People are saying it's racist but some black African rapper made the song. We know that blacks can do what they want, even exploiting young white girls as the star of their song.

Sounds like the girl likes to eat chinese food.
I didn't see anything offensive. Silly, yes. Offensive, no.

Quite the contrary, I'm humbled.

Nothing wrong with the song. Look at the people who are dissing it--what is their alternative? This producer and the young girl therein are making clean, wholesome, family-friendly music. I'm sure they would prefer that kids listen to filth by Katy Perry and Bieber.

The word is Asians.


One race can't hijack a whole continent. If they insist not to be called Orientals, at least call them East Asians or Southeast Asians. What is their race called if not Oriental? Isn't calling their race Mongols more racist since not all Orientals are Mongolian? I took Chinese History in college and the teacher was Chinese. She told me the reason they don't like Oriental is that it's Eurocentric, meaning Orientals are from the East but from their perspective, the Americas are to the East. She used the term East Asian. When I said Jews are also Asian, she agreed and said they don't like the term Middle East for the same reason they don't like the terms Orientals are Far East. She said for the same reason they call the Middle East Southwest Asia. I can respect that but I don't like when people think that only Orientals are Asian. Asia is the most diverse continent on Earth and also the largest in size and population. It's even worse when stupid white Westerners don't understand what Asia is and try to be politically correct. It's just as stupid as blacks thinking all of Africa is/was black (Like Ancient Egypt). At least half of Asians geographically are white (Meaning from the region of Israel to parts of India and also countries to the North such as Armenia and Georgia as well as parts of Asian Russia.).

Also, in the Chinese History class, we learned about the Mongols who invaded China. We saw documentaries on the Mongols and they actually look different  than other Orientals. I mean their eyes are not like the Chinese even though Westerners see a connection. If anything, it's racist to call Chinese people Mongols. Oriental is a better term. In the class, I wrote East Asian on the papers which is basically a PC version of Oriental. But just Asian without a description of what type of Asian is East Asian-centric.

Some one pointed out that on the Monopoly game board, they had Oriental Avenue.

Also, the clip showed Japanese culture and made it like all Orientals are the same. The Chinese hated the Japanese. For the same reason they don't like to call parts of China "Manchuria" because that was the imperialist Japanese name for the region.

Yes!
Italians should complain that not all Italian's have mustaches.
And they should complain that they aren't always named Mario or Luigi.

Not all Italians are named 'Don Corleone' either...

When I saw that video I never even thought it had any racial overtones. The song is about American style "Chinese food", not Chinese people.

It reminded me of this song more than anything else:

The colors in the logo in the song look similar to Burger King which they didn't mention though. Maybe it's more like Jack in the Box or Al Sharton's favorite White Castle.

Ok, now for my input into this 'marvelous' thread....

The song 'Sushi Girl' by the Tubes was very controversial when it came out.... It is mostly suggestive of having unmarried sex with a sushi girl... Racist? Sexist? You decide....

Benyamin, they're not rugs!  That's why they shouldn't be called "Orientals".  More appropriate should be "Squinty Eyed People" or "SEP".  Some prefer "Yellow" also.
