Japanese are flooding the US?
Chinks. These are definitely chinks
That's one of Geisel's wartime cartoons, and the Japanese were the threat then. Using the word "Honorable" also seems to indicate that it's a Japanese thing.
Chinese of his era were usually drawn with a queue, the pigtail hairstyle of the Qing Dynasty era, and/or with one of those tall skullcaps.
There's an article at https://apjjf.org/2017/16/Minear.html that talks about this particular drawing, it states:
Most notorious is his cartoon of February 13, 1942. It is titled “Waiting for the Signal From Home…,” and it depicts a mass of stereotyped “Japs” marching from Washington and Oregon and California to pick up blocks of TNT from a structure labeled “Honorable 5th Column.” On the roof another “Jap” with a telescope peers out across the ocean.
I don't know 'bout that. Mexicans like to cut off way more heads than muslims.
Muslims? These are chinks. Over the past 50 years China has abused the relaxed US immigration policies to push millions of sleeper agents into our country, our government, and our media
oh shit. My bad.
Dr. Seuss's comic strip was very based. Long before he did children's books.
