If you quote, quote correctly. I wrote "USAians", not "USAsians". What you wrongly quoted might imply something else then intended. Besides, it was the decision of the gov. back then to give shelter to these very questionable "scientists". If you consider mentioning that historic fact as a "slur" against americans, that tells a lot more about you then you might imagine.
- lupusreal 3y agoSlurs are made by the context of their use. In this case, "USAians" is virtually always used in the context of somebody talking shit about Americans, such as you claiming that Americans have no morality. That's a very broad brush you're painting with, characterizing hundreds of millions of people like that, which is a hallmark of bigotry. This makes it a slur.
- defrost 3y agoIt's a common designation for central north americans as inhabitants of the USofA. If you think it's a slur to call someone an inhabitant of the USofA then that's your call.
