This is amusing but technically, she’s right. Keep in mind that Russia, Iran, India and Israel are all Asian countries. Even if McDonalds called this “Chinese” salad, they’d still be dealing with dozens of cultural varieties within China.

If this woman doesn’t want to end up in the insane asylum, she should just chalk this up as vapid marketing. Instead, she writes an article that is a pathetically serious version of David Chappelle’s comedy routine about how its racist that green olives being in a glass jar while black olives are in a can.

oil, vinegar, etc, you know the ancient Chinese recipe from
the Ming Dynasty, circa 1980.

This is endless. Russian dressing, French fries, Canadian bacon, Hungarian goulash, French roast coffee, etc.

Not to mention just the generic nationalities. —. Mexican food, Chinese food, Italian food, French food.....

Where does this nonsense ever end???

I was hurt brutally when I had to buy some American cheese, Virginia Ham, and white bread for sandwiches. All I could think was how disgusting it is to have to demean the innocent residents of Sandwich, Kent, England. Poor sweet dears. Where can I send reparations?

Yes Yes Yes liberal snowflakes- everything is a freakin micro aggression- even the word THE is a micro aggression because it ‘could stand for’ the term “Tiny Hawaiian eggplants” which would be a micro aggression directed at eggplants - even the word eggplant is a mirco aggression because it ‘could stand for’ the term “Every Good Girl plants large angular nincompoop toenails” and the word but is a microagression because it ‘could stand for’ the term “...” and “...” is a microagression because it ‘could stand for” “.....”

Blah blah blah

Everyone got along just fine for centuries UNTIL the precious little snowflakes started freaking out about having their feelings hurt- Well tough luck nancies- the constitution was NOT created to protect your delicate little feelings- grow up!

The only appropriate responses to this sort of nonsense are:

1) laughter, and
2) celebration of the writer’s freedom of expression.

Why encourage such nonsense? Because whenever the progressive movement thinks it should express what they believe openly, it loses. Because sane non-progressives then have an opportunity to see progressives for what they really are, i.e. insane.

I wonder how she’d feel if it was called a Ch**k Salad?

She is insane, but without realizing it, makes my point.
I have been complaining for years, that the Victim Category “Asian” is overly broad, encompassing residents of countries with vastly different cultures, and which are so different that they should not be ever placed in the same category.
Vietnamese and Saudi. Any resemblance there? None.

“Asian” was deliberately chosen to be overly broad so as to make it as big a victim group as possible, in order to give it the most political clout.

Leftists invented the word, not me. Leftists are guilty of thinking that “they all look alike,” not me. So the b!tch is complaining about leftists, and should shut up.

And it isn’t racist.

It brings this answer to the liberal lament "Trump? How did this happen?" to mind:

TRUMP? HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

It happened because you banned super-sized sodas. And smoking in parks.

And offensive ideas on campus.

Because you branded people who oppose gay marriage ‘homophobic’, and people unsure about immigration ‘racist’.

Because you treated owning a gun and never having eaten quinoa as signifiers of fascism.

Because you thought correcting people’s attitudes was more important than finding them jobs.

Because you turned ‘white man’ from a description into an insult.

Because you used slurs like ‘denier’ and ‘dangerous’ against anyone who doesn’t share your eco-pieties.

Because you treated dissent as hate speech and criticism of Obama as extremism.

Because you talked more about gender-neutral toilets than about home repossessions.

Because you beautified Caitlyn Jenner.

Because you policed people’s language, rubbished their parenting skills, took the validity out of their beliefs.

Because you cried when someone mocked the Koran but laughed when they mocked the Bible.

Because you said criticizing Islam is Islamophobia.

Because you kept telling people, “You can’t think that, you can’t say that, you can’t do that”.

Because you turned politics from something done by and for people to something done to them, for their own good.

Because you treated people like sh*t. And people don’t like being treated like sh*t.

Trump happened because of YOU !

To this, I would add "Because you made a federal case out of "oriental" vs "asian" vs "whatevereffingwordanyonetriestousetodescribeanything"

Gosh. I think I, part Italian, was micro-aggressively assaulted way back when the Texans and Lousianans offered me Wop salad.

Stupid me. I used to laugh at it. Little did I know haw damaged I was. But only microly so, so had no discernable effect.

Political correctness is transforming our language into George Orwell’s “newspeak” a language designed to make creative thought or any dissent against Big Brother impossible.
