No, I understand the origin of “Amish.” But everybody now knows exactly what it means, and it’s ugly.

We shouldn’t be doing it.

It's not just satire, it's an extended middle finger to the forces of political correctness. Would not any other such replacement word, once the reference became obvious, also be seen as "ugly"? Or is the suggestion here that we simply call a spade a spade?

We already got told not to use the term “thug” (even though rapper Young Thug just got arrested for gang crimes).
