    You’re literally making the same “joke” as the old “har har Chinese people name their kid by throwing a fork down the stairs. Ching Ching Chong ping pong.”

    Be better.

        No, his name is Kashyap not Cash App. Laughing at foreign languages just makes you sound ignorant and untraveled, not clever.

        There are plenty of actions and words from this fuckhead to make fun of. It’s not like there’s a lack of material to work with.

      I guess I don’t understand how the joke is the same. Is “Ching Ching Chong ping pong” the Mandarin translation of “crypto scammer,” or “nominative determinism,” or “the universe is too on-the-nose”?

        While there are English versions of the joke, like a prolific fucker being named Dick Hammer, it just dovetails with the racist jokes that are simply mocking a name because it’s foreign.

          Does it, though? These jokes may superficially resemble each other solely because they involve non-white people, but one joke comes down to “all Chinese people be like,” while the other is about Kash Patel in particular. One is stereotyping an entire ethno-linguistic group, and the other is about the actions of one specific man. At a fundamental level, that’s very different, I think.
