He's sleeping in Jerry's bed. He's meant to look like Jerry. It's not an Asian caricature.
I was about to say this. The cheese is by the table.
That person is wrong here, but I think they were thinking about other scenes. There's a few of them on youtube if you search Tom and Jerry stereotypes.
Definitely. I won't defend racist caricatures, but this is not one.
Since the racist caricature is based on equating east Asian people to rats, it was a reasonable assumption.
