Define “offensive” as it pertains to anyone?? It doesn’t. It’s merely locative for any/all species.
To: nickcarraway
In case anyone is confused:
Geographic origin of a species of fish
=/=
Peoples, languages, cultures, and cuisines from a similar geographic location.

“We wanted to move away from any terms that cast Asian culture and people in a negative light,” Charlie Wooley, director of the Great Lakes Regional Office for the service, told The Associated Press. Asian people and culture? What's that? The people and culture of Tel Aviv, Saigon, Petropavlovsk Kamchatsk and Lhasa are all Asians, but they have little, if anything, in common.

Oh, F off Wooley. You are an example of what is worst in guv’mt today; change for the sake of change. No value added, let’s just change this so we can feel hip. This is how a lemming stampede is started.

Maybe the AI “fact checker” deems “carp” to be an alternate spelling of another 4 letter word.
