I’m not going to get into the arguments of cultural appropriation, but this example of a Chinese restaurant “startup” (WTF, don’t call restaurants startups), gone wrong is a great example of where someone thinkgs they’re being quaint, savvy, smart and have it blow up in their face.
I don’t take glee in this.
I don’t get the impression the founder(s) had any malicious intent, but more of a situation of plain ignorance (a little bit of unknowing arrogance thrown in).
The question is, what lessons can YOU learn from this debacle?
