  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

My brother and I have the same mom but different dads. I just read a book about two girls with the same Chinese father and different white moms.

All that to say, I read this as the OP's dad possibly not being her brother's dad.

Dad: "Hey son, remeber when I filmed the wrong kid when you were five? Maybe all Asian do look alike!"

Man: "Oh yeah, that was funny wasn't it dad."

Son, stepping over from nearby: "Dad, who are you talking to?"

So not knowing who is your child is racist now?

Maybe it was just me but I assumed a mix race kid and a white dad when thinking for a second.

Hey, maybe we’re talking about a 90s camcorder and the dad was sitting really far away or something…
