      Buddy, i dont know how you thought “rice rocket” wasnt a term thrown with specific hard feelings in mind. Just because a halfassed reclamation could be said to have been done in the early to mid 00s doesnt mean it wasnt used with the ethnicity of car manufacturer or oftentimes it’s driver in mind.

        What a weird thing to say... The world isn't the US yk. Japanese and Korean cars weren't that common even as late as the 80-s. Weird reclamation. People started using the term in the early odds...

      "Rice rocket" is aking to calling American cars "Cracker cars".

      Or even worse "N*gger wagons"

      You are condensing their entire existence into "the people who eat rice" like it is no big deal.
