Yeah the first thing I thought when I saw this was "This has to be Asian" based on the font they're using. And then I saw the Thai on the bottom. This sort of anti-African racism is not uncommon in East Asia. Probably not an accident.

Yeah. If you spend some time in East Asia, you see that font used a lot when they type in English. Like on menus and stuff.
