On Saturday, Cardi B uploaded an Instagram photo to show what her daughter, Kulture, may look like in the future.
The now-deleted post used a superimposed image of Cardi and her husband, rapper Offset to reveal future Kulture. "So, this how [Kulture] finna look? I love it," Cardi wrote.
When one fan pointed out that the composite photo looked a lot like Cardi's sister, Hennessy, she replied, "I think cause Hennessy got chinky eyes like Offset and so [does Kulture]. It's the only [thing] I could think of."
"I don't know fuckin' everything," she tweeted in a now-deleted post. "We don't even use that as [an] insult and I don't use it as [an] insult. I'm sick of the internet."
Since then, several other fans have come forward admitting they also didn't know "chinky eyes" was an offensive term:
@iamcardib I say my daughter has chinky eyes all the time I thought it meant chinked as I'm pinched u know? I guess not 😳
Here's to hoping that Cardi B and everyone else was able to learn from the moment and will do better going forward.
