It should not be offensive or considered a slur at all. Like what, just because people used it during the war ages ago? It's just a good shorthand, a good contraction. Like, say the world suddenly went to war with Australians. People would keep saying, "those fucking Aussies," and I guess that word would become a slur too then after the Aussie war. But it's a shame cause that's such a good contraction of Australians. It's silly

in what real life situations do you feel the need to refer to people by their ethnicity 'ay yo montenegrin wassup' get outta here with your deranged premises

Well it calls to mind their ethnic behavior. I think it’s not smart to say to their face because it makes them feel different but if you’re talking about how they’re different, and the people you’re talking to are cool and in the group, you can be like ‘haha none of us need glasses unlike the japs because we aren’t rule following dummies!’ So like that is a context to use it

How often do you mention Japanese people that you need a shorthand?

>Jap began to be used in a derogatory fashion during the war, more so than Nip.[1] Veteran and author Paul Fussell explains the rhetorical usefulness of the word during the war for creating effective propaganda by saying that Japs "was a brisk monosyllable handy for slogans like 'Rap the Jap' or 'Let's Blast the Jap Clean Off the Map'".
Yeah suuure, it carries no offense at all....... op is a desperate moron.

>>1032142 It does sound kinda cute but niggers has a really sad history so we should find a new word for them. I think bliggers after black! Whites can be whiggers, French friggers, Russians ruiggers, it all just works! I’m not sure about how it bounces in my nous too much. I think iggies maybe is cuter- jiggies, whiggies friggies ruiggies. Hard to tell them apart if the national syllable is soft though higgies for Haitians sounds like jiggies.

Honestly I feel a little sad after this. I think maybe we shouldn’t talk about different people at all. I don’t like to feel different and like I don’t belong
