Why are these names “racist”? They are just joke names, made possible by the fact that Asian-sounding names lend themselves to this kind of humorous manipulation. These joke names are not slurs against Asians.

That's what I wonder too. If the names had been Ben Dover and Mike Hunt and the usual crew would it be prejudice against whites?

Thanks for coming up with some examples. That makes the point perfectly - it is not racism, just goofing around with names.
