It's inescapable.
And when Australians use the term 'Paki', they're 'perfectly executing' a British term that is intended to be ethnically denigrating and is illegal in Britain...
So, Australians must be using it for the same reasons, then eh!
Some are I'm sure. It is a racial slur after all, so it's right at home here on these forums.
Pommie is a racial slur. As is Skippy, Russki, Polak, kraut, Paddy, frog, jap, Charlie, Abo, Blackie, whitey, gollywog and so on endlessly.
People are different, cultures are different. It gets noticed, including the negative aspects of cultures, others and one's own. The more negative characteristics are noticed, the more 'slurs'.
Not every single member of a racial or cultural group fits all the stereotypes. Nevertheless, stereotypes are not baseless.
So stop being so pinched, po-faced and earnest. You are not Lady Bracknell.
