Do you know CNN\u2019s problem with \u201cracist\u201d Chop Suey font?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, this is another \u201cracist\u201d problem that a font generated these weeks. Just a few days ago, Tom Hanks\u2019s son was heavily accused in the press because he used a \u201cracist\u201d font on his cloth collection named White Boy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The font was somehow similar with fonts that Nazist used in World War 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what is this all about?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now fonts are playing a major role in the \u201cracism\u201d war?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or some of us like to find offense in every corner of this beautiful world?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CNN said on their official Twitter account: \u201c”For years, the West has relied on so-called \u2018chop suey\u2019 fonts to communicate \u2018Asianness\u2019 in food packaging, posters and ad campaigns. But such fonts perpetuate problematic stereotypes,” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"CNN's
CNN’s Problem With “Racist” Chop Suey Font<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tim Young, a political satirist, told Fox News “CNN has reached the epitome of ‘we’re out of stuff to pretend to be outraged by this week for clicks’ if they’re surmising which fonts are racist,\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CNN report is named “Karate, Wonton, Chow Fun: The end of ‘chop suey’ fonts,” and it was written by Anne Quito. Here<\/a> is the link if you want to read it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reporter Anne Quito wrote “There’s a good chance you pictured letters made from the swingy, wedge-shaped strokes you’ve seen on restaurant signs, menus, take-away boxes and kung-fu movie posters. These \u2018chop suey fonts,\u2019 as American historian Paul Shaw calls them, have been a typographical shortcut for \u2018Asianness\u2019 for decades,”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s hard not to cringe at the Chinese stereotypes bundled up with each font package — especially when seen through the lens of today’s heightened vigilance toward discrimination and systemic racism. Critics believe that using chop suey typefaces is downright racist, particularly when deployed by non-Asian creators,”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are Chop Suey fonts?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Chop Suey fonts are also known as wonton fonts, Chinese fonts, and chopstick fonts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These fonts have a visual style that express \u201cAsianness” or “Chineseness”. The design is styled to mimic the brush strokes used in Chinese characters and Orientalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CNN\u2019s problem with \u201cRacist\u201d Chop Suey font<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So, in the end, which is CNN\u2019s problem?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is the use of Chop Suey fonts a \u201cracism\u201d problem?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cproblem\u201d for CNN and other people seems is the fact that the Asian community is in part contributing to the perpetuation of certain stereotypical Asian cultural signifiers which are then used and abused by non-Asian enterprises to exoticize the Far East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What people feel about CNN\u2019s problem with Chop Suey fonts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

People don\u2019t understand why CNN has a problem with Chop Suey fonts and why are they talking about \u201cracism\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find below many opinions shared on CNN\u2019s Twitter account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you will see, people are not happy with CNN\u2019s article and they don\u2019t agree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Racism is part of our history and we should never forget it so we can heal the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Racism has to stop immediately, all over the world, it has nothing good in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But let\u2019s take a deep breath and stop for a few seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Chop Suey font a real racism problem? It seems not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We should not find problems everywhere we look because most of them will be invented by our imagination. There are people that are 100% sure they say or they were in contact with aliens. We tend to believe what our brain wants to believe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s all stop doing strange things and have a real, honest, and true fight with racism. But with the real racism, not with fonts. The fonts are not racist and they will never be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really do hope that this will be my last article about \u201cracist\u201d fonts and people will focus on better things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
