I think if anything, the artist just predicted the dopey faux aggressive angry face on an appliance styling fad that has been beloved by “designers” for far too many years.

Isn’t it grand to be living in a post-racial society?

Maybe I’m missing the sarcasm, but how could it be racist if it was drawn by a Japanese person in the first place?

Being of a race doesn’t excuse anyone of racism; even within the same race .
