I seem to remember discussion a few months ago that a certain term for citizens of Best Korea is off the table but can that be specified in the rules, I could see that one tripping up some first-time callers

It's contextual, I keep an eye on who's regular and who's popping in. If something isn't cool I'll say something. The whole point is I don't want to codify a list of slurs, or even go through the exercise of thinking and writing them down. It's gross.

I don't see how that's a slur, it's just a abbreviation for 'North Koreans'

It's not always about the definition of a word, it's how it is used. If "Norks" is mostly used as a pejorative, then it is a slur.

Chinks is just an abbreviation for Chinese ...ks Definitely nothing to read into. Dont use Nork anymore. Even among the wonks of 38 north and ACW it’s fallen out of common use because it’s a lovely slur entirely due to its history of usage

Grandmother starts complaining about democrats running candidates who "don't know anything about politics." I pointed out to her that she voted for someone entirely because he was a "washington outsider" and I could visibly see her brain lock up trying to process a comeback.

I guess EBB could write up a giant list and hope some edge-lord doesn’t find a way to sneak through the cracks with some little known slur. Or maybe just gently caress someone up when they get cute using a slur seems easier?

But it does seem like half of the posts in the current events thread are discussing what we're allowed to discuss in the current events thread. Maybe a mixture of the two so that way someone doesn't eat a ban for not knowing "Norks" isn't allowed?

If someone is super invested in a slur and can’t find a way around it, lmao at worrying about however they’ll stop calling someone a “Jap” in 2018. It’s super easy to not use racial and ethnic slurs. But people pretend it’s hard for reasons.

How about we leave the definition of a slur to the people with buttons and move on? If EBB wants to ban you for using a slur he can do so. You don’t like it go to QCS. If you’re wondering if the word will get you in trouble don’t use it.
