Is there somewhere I can get a list of terms and the minority that is likely to be offended by them? Well, the chink in the armor on that list is it needs updating on a constant basis, as the words used today will offend someone, somewhere tomorrow.

Is a chink in the armor the same as a n***** in the woodpile?

Some would come after you for using “chink”. Not kidding.

Our local high school (Pekin, Illinois) sports teams were known as the "Pekin Chinks" until 1981 when the P.C. crowd made them change it. It is now the unimaginative "Pekin Dragons".

And once a word is on the “offend” list, it will never come off.
Eventually what you can call a protected minority will comprise a shorter list than what you can’t.
