...this really isn't anywhere near the same. US Citizen isn't your ethnicity.

[mekkio]

It has nothing to do with ethnicity. It's name calling based on someone's background.

[chardmonster]

Like calling an Irish person "mick" or an Italian a "wop."

Dude, no. This isn't the same.

You can't be racist against United States Citizens because that isn't a race or an ethnicity. You directly linked racist slurs (not really used too much anymore, though) to "USian."

This is beyond the fact that we're one of the two major super powers and nobody's really oppressing you by making fun of your country on the internet.

[(Anonymous)]

there are ethnic slurs for americans though, solely based on their country of residence/origin, as wop and mick are

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs_by_ethnicity#Americans

[chardmonster]

Okay. I have to say I've never seen "Merkin" used. They're calling Yank a slur? Really? Yank? Septic seems pretty localized considering it's Cockney, unless you're hanging out in some kind of Cockney message board.

Including "Timber Nigger" shows that whoever was putting together this list was really starting to reach. Slurs used against Native Americans would be a hell of a lot longer than four entries.

I mean we're getting to the point where we're defining "slur" so broadly that it's becoming meaningless.

[abharding]

I could see someone from the Southern part of the United States being insulted if someone called/referred to him/her as a Yank - given the history of the word and it's use. But I wouldn't go so far as to call it a slur.

[mekkio]

Superpowers has nothing to do with it. I can't call an English person a "Limey" without it being considered a slur despite the fact that the UK is major player on the world stage.

Name calling is name calling. It has the same intention no matter who says it to whom.

[diorama]

LOL

[(Anonymous)]

It really comes as no surprise that you have no fucking grasp of how this works.

[mekkio]

And it really comes as no surprise that there will always be people who think that there are exceptions to name calling.

Grow up and act like a God damn adult. Slurs are for children.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not saying it's a good word, I certainly don't use it. I'm saying that you obviously have very little comprehension of what the mechanic here is (or even who uses the word).

[(Anonymous)]

Italian isn't a race, though. Besides, we only became a united political entity 152 years ago.
