Happy new year but pls we don't want any more insult

There is this nude photos saga between different HK artists/stars which is going on around this traditional holiday. And whether you like it or not, they become something of a common topic around friends and general public. The photos saga is not only raising the moral issue but also raising the freedom of spreech. I am pretty sure everyone had taken a point of view on the issues. People looks at those photos of love/sex scenes and some felt disgusted, offened by them.

However, if they are offened by those photos, then I must feel I am equally offened by what's being shown on TV on the first day of CNY. Two cantonese speaking foreign actors had to be pretended "enjoying" themselves by stucking their head on to a cream cake whenever a contestant answer some sort of questions. At the end, their faces were full of cream. I couldn't bear to watch it for one more second. The reason for using two foreign actors to do this kind of act makes me wonder the reason behind it. Is it really that funny to watch a non-chinese being "humidated" because of the fact that they don't know much about chinese tradition.

A public display of racism but everyones doesn't even think this is a problem?
