I agree with this, though I think it's ridiculous (and mildly insulting) to call Elevens a racist insult, if you are unable to call Japanese people... Japanese people... you have a problem.

But even the fictional meaning of 'Eleven' doesn't mean "Japanese people", it means "Japanese people stripped of all national identity and brought low to the point where they're just a number in our system". Are you arguing that, in the context of the show, it isn't a racial slur? Because it totally is.

Now, whether a fictional slur should be considered insulting in the real world is a different discussion. But it's probably not a good idea to use it anyway because of reasons mentioned in the previous comment.
