Thank you for sticking up for him. He or she has lots of splaining to do..”injuns”...”ingles”.
Rusty, chill please. We’ve been messing around with the word “coup” all day, and very little of it had to do with Native Americans. Surely you don’t think someone here would be racist about Natives, now would you? If you’re looking for a fight, go find that Elizabeth Warren chick... :)

Not really. Just a little. And only because I like you.
Ingles is espanol for English. Espanol is Spanish for Spanish. I don't see how you can be offended by that.
So maybe it's "Injun" that put the bee in your bonnet.
Injun
A casual American or Canadian corruption of the term "Indian", referring to Native Americans. The earliest Europeans thought they had landed in India and applied "Indian" to the indigenous population. "Injun" more commonly heard during a period when the term "Indian" was used, often pronounced in later years only by children. Not typically meant as derogatory, as American "Indians" came to be admired during the latter period of common usage.
Rarely used today, if so used in a typically light-hearted if politically-incorrect fashion. Can be derogatory given intent and inflection.
I assure you, my intent and/or inflection was not derogatory. I challenge you to defy me on that point.
And one last related term you should know;
Baizuo
Zhang Chenchen further defined the word "baizuo" with the definition "People who only care about topics such as immigration, minorities, LGBT and the environment" and have no sense of real problems in the real world.
They are hypocritical humanitarians who advocate for peace and equality only to satisfy their own feeling of moral superiority.
They are obsessed with political correctness to the extent that they tolerate backwards Islamic values for the sake of multiculturalism.
They believe in the welfare state that benefits only the idle and the free riders They are the ignorent and arrogant westerners who pity the rest of the world and think they are saviours.
Baizuo is used as an insult amongst Chinese netizens.
There. See if "Baizuo" applies to anybody you know.
Also. With all due respect, I use the words I use and will not be chastised. I gave you this explanation out of respect and because I'm bored.
And with that, I shall go watch Netflix and chill.
