“Nothing’s wrong with “Chinaman” or “Chink” or “Gook” or “Slope” “Slant””

I still don’t see Chinaman being a slur anymore that I consider Irishman a slur.

I truly don’t get it-—they are just descriptives.

I agree with you.

First off, an apology for saying the following: “Chink” is an insult. “Gook” is an insult. “Slope” is an insult. “Slant” is an insult. Again sorry for posting them, but it is a response to the original post.

“Chinaman” isn’t the same as the others.

It is vaguely insensitive, but not really. About like calling a white person “whitey”.

At least that is my opinion.
