I guess that the gesture was made to show affinity with the chinese people. If someone else (i.e. anglo-saxons) used the gesture to ofend you, who is the racist, the one that pretended to ofend or the one that pretended to show affinity?.
If a child uses an ofensive word without knowing about the ofensive meaning of that word, is it ignorance or inocence?
You think that all the world must know about your sad history in the United States of America, so you may have been driven to their egocentric way of thinking.

Hi, I am Spanish. I am very sorry that a lot of ignorant people wasn't able to understand a common gesture here in Spain. Have you idiots ever heard of cultural difference? The gesture of the Spanish nat team is not considered racist here, in Spain. Furthermore, it implies sympathy for the Asian culture. If you don't believe me, why don't you inform yourselves before criticising and insulting us? Ask the huge Asian community in Spain. Did they get offended? Absolutely not. What is more insulting is that all the unrespectful comments that I have read come precisely from racist people who consider themselves best because they are WASPS. Fuck you all, bloody basterds!

Aren’t slanted eyes, in all their slantiness, a derivative of Northern Siberian/Eskimo/Innuit genetic inheritance. The “squintyiness” would prevent snow blindness and give an advantage to those people with slanted eyes. This is my opinion based on drunken memory snippets so don’t bite my head off please. I would like to add that as a white dude in America I have rejected the onslaught of mindless
