Don't call me Aussie. It's Australian.
"Aussie" is not a slur.

In a historical context, particularly during World War II, "nip" was used as a derogatory shorthand for "Japanese" (from "Nippon," the Japanese name for Japan). In this context, it is a racial slur and is offensive.

Correct, that is widely considered a slur when used to refer to Japanese people. While it originated as a shortened form of "Japanese," its use became derogatory and offensive, particularly during World War II, when it was employed in propaganda and racist rhetoric.
Today, using the term is generally regarded as disrespectful and insensitive, given its historical baggage and offensive connotations. Referring to individuals or the Japanese community with the full term "Japanese" or contextually appropriate identifiers is more respectful and widely accepted.
"Curry Muncher" is much the same.
Quote:I can tell you're covered in fleas SK. You can only nit pick the insignificant.
You're using racial slurs, it's far from insignificant. The reliance on such language is a glaring beacon of the weakness and utter illegitimacy of your position. It exposes a profound lack of substantive reasoning, as you abandon logical evidence and rational discourse in favour of cheap, emotionally charged provocations.
Slurs do nothing to engage with ideas; they exist solely to degrade and dehumanise, a desperate tactic that lays bare your inability to challenge opposing viewpoints on even the most basic intellectual grounds.
Your credibility is shattered the moment you stoop to such levels, revealing not only your reliance on prejudice and immaturity but also your fragile, insecure nature.
Let's not mince words, resorting to slurs doesn't just expose your argument as hollow, it marks you as an irredeemable coward clinging to insults because you can't muster anything better.
It also makes you a giant piece of s
hit
unworthy of the gift of life.
But you do you.
