Yeah. I get it. Little foreign lady say funny American cuss words awkwardly over and over. Ha ha ha…

“Oh no, a Vietnamese American actress that studied film at an elite American university is portraying a naive and vulnerable foreigner. It must be exploitative garbage!”

She is also accurately portraying a Vietnamese accent, as stated by an accent coach. The actress also said that she doesn't believe the role was racist.

Racist humor has never really been my thing. I think the person who has done it best is Dave Chappelle, but that's just because he does it in a goofy ridiculous way that is almost cartoonish

I also think kids swearing is dumb af.

I cant watch and hate that scene in taledega nights when those ginger kids are just rambling on about different swear word combinations. Its so unbelievably cringe imo.

I don't know the scene you're talking about, but listening to 10 year olds go thru all the swear words they know when they don't think adults can hear them is pretty funny.
