This list is unreliable.

For one thing this list includes the term “water buffalo” as a racial slur.

That was only an allegation. Its use has been found by the courts NOT to be a racial slur.

So go ahead and use it; it is possibly the only derogatory English words approved for use by the courts.

Well, it got Sheldon Hackney (former president of UPenn) fired.
