I mean, rather racist yes >.>

But as a kid it's just something that looks/sounds funny so doubt any really thought anything more of it than a weird/funny cat.

Our understanding of ethics evolve over time but what is actually right and wrong never changes. We just believe something is okay when it actually is not okay.

The joke is that he's playing chopsticks. On the piano.

But yah, it's a racist character. But also entirely harmless within the context so...... (also consider the siamese cats from Lady and the Tramp)
