I think it's an elephant eye. There's no tail.

Also, /u/beermeem is correct about the Chinese racism. The same applies to South Korea, and most others of the region.

Asians (in the region) are generally somewhat racist about other Asian ethnicities.

Plenty of negative bias to go around...

In fairness, Europe was quite racist until recently. English hated the Irish, and French, etc.
The concept of "whiteness" is a modern development.

The concept of white as a group was created to pit whites against minorities. Pitting nationalities against each other is untenable. With just two groups to focus on (POC and white) the elite can easily hammer us with a constant divisive narrative that keeps us fighting each other and not causing any trouble for them.

The Russian subversion strategy of formenting disharmony is real and should not be overlooked. Analysis of their efforts in social media found racial strife to be their primary objective.

Their operations have expanded to other countries and are better hidden.

It's not the Russians, it is our own media. It is literally taught in our schools. We no longer teach about how great men advanced society incrementally through innovation while struggling with all kinds of personal problems. Instead we teach that all success is the result of predetermined variables like your skin color, how wealthy your parents are, etc. We are brainwashed with the idea that all success of white people is a result of privileges given to them and stolen from minorities.

We live in the country that invented affirmative action. We literally have hundreds of programs for the sole benefit of a minority population. That is unheard of in any other country. After all, why should any county have special laws to priviledge a minority of its citizens? Yet the average person is literally brainwashed to believe the exact opposite, that this minority population with all these special privileges is being oppressed. That doesn't come from Russians.

The real reason for disparities in success between groups comes from disparities in IQ. Instead of acknowledging this we deny it completely and substitute a fabricated excuse of white racism against minorities. This white racism narrative fuels more racial hatred than anything else could.
