Juggle Bunny is racist? What's racist about a pink bunny juggling?
Actually believe it or not, here in America yes it is very un-p.c. and thus racist to say or use that term Acadia.
He mentioned the term "Jungle Bunny".
The image is titled "Juggle Bunny".
So far as "Jungle Bunny", I've never heard that term until this thread. As a matter of fact I've never heard of a "Juggle Bunny" either.
The term "Jungle Bunny" is a phrase used to refer to people of African ancestry, usually with derogatory intent. Like the infamous "N" word, it is not socially acceptable.
I can't view the video as I'm at work, but I'm guessing "Juggle Bunny" merely describes the action of the lapine presented in the animated clip, that is, a rabbit tossing balls into the air to create a circular rhythm.
Sincerely,
