I simpy think "Jap" or "Paki" is a shortened version of the actual word. Like "Jew" right? Is that bad?

The fundamental flaw with this position is that "Jew" doesn't have the historical context of being used to denigrate a race, whereas "Jap" and "Paki" do.

I really had no part in making it funner but YOU'RE WELCOME!

[Iron Ape]

Yet here you are too.

But I'm not the one clutching to a bunch of ignorant words that add absolutely nothing of value to anything. So, yeah.

But that's cause my character is black lol. I've got plenty of black friends and they say it's okay when I say "Sup nigga" as they would say "Sup ya bangi".

So the advocacy of a small census makes the term not offensive?

This. The racist term for the Jewish people is "yid".

See I think this varies in geography. MY people haven't had a history of using those terms to the degree others might. Other races moreso, but not particularly these. So the associations are different. But as long as your country is running the world, things are as you say they are.

But it wouldn't be offensive cause I've got a Somalian great grandfather.

no "jew" is offensive as well. jewish people don't like being called "jews"

In YOUR opinion. Which is right, of course.
