if a japanese finds the word racist it’s racist, don’t use it, jap doesn’t refer to country and it isn’t only racist to japanese in japan, which makes no sense. I’m black, I have a large family of people who are black, I have black friend not one of them find being black offensive
so if a black person finds black racist I should stop using it?

jap is a racist term, and it would be extremely stupid and ignorant to use the word when obviously it is viewed as racist by japanese in general, you have no right to say if a word is or isn’t an insult when it isn’t directed at you, I could say the same thing about using cracker on a white person, I could say it’s not racist, but a white person might find it that way.
Actually, many black people find being called black offensive. Jap originated as a racist term, just like calling someone “black” did. But it has lost its racist connotations over the years, and is now used as a nuetral adjective.
1 word losing its racist meaning does not mean another has yet. Maybe in 20 years the word jap will no longer be a racist term but that is not for 1 Atresac to decide. That is for the Japanese people to decide.

If 21 is offended by it then fine, but the fact is it’s not used as a racist slur anymore save for a small group of people who still think racism is ok. If it offends him I’d refrain from saying it around him, my argument is trying to not get the word banned as a whole.
An entire race and a bunch of countries do not like the use of the word. Are you that blind?
The word is fine only in jokes and not overused. I already said that. I just don’t liken called jap. It’s Japanese.
And the rest of the countries don’t think it’s a racist word.
Exactly, only a select few. And as 21 said, majority rules.
The Japanese decide and it is the majority of the Japanese. No other race has a say unless it gets over ridiculous such as 1 race can say jap and another can’t.
So you are calling me racist when you yourself say no other race has a say in it?
No other race has a say unless it becomes ridiculous and exceptions are made.
You can’t go off and decide for another race what is offensive and what isn’t. It’s not racism. It’s the way the world works.
No other race has a say, but apparently the UK does.
No, they are just back up. It shows their acceptance of the Japanese and what they find offensive.

No, they are just back up. It shows their acceptance of the Japanese and what they find offensive.
so their opinion only matters because they agree? Right, that makes sense.
No, it shows their acceptance while people like you like to use it even if it is demeaning to the Japanese race.
Well if their opinion doesn’t matter than stop using it to help your argument.
You still didn’t get that?
It’s not their opinion. It is their acceptance and your nonacceptance.
And now you say I don’t accept the Japanese people? Yeah, a Satanist Unitarian doesn’t accept a race. Good thinking.
Actually, that is a possibility and I am saying you are not accepting the Japanese as people. You give them no say in their own affairs.
Yeah I do, but the fact is the majority of the world doesn’t think it is offensive.

And? Some black people think being called black is offensive. Does that mean we should just call them African American? No, they are black.
no, no african americans find being called black offensive, however if it is used as a bad way then it is offensive,
jap is a racist term, and it would be extremely stupid and ignorant to use the word when obviously it is viewed as racist by japanese in general, you have no right to say if a word is or isn’t an insult when it isn’t directed at you, I could say the same thing about using cracker on a white person, I could say it’s not racist, but a white person might find it that way.
Actually, many black people find being called black offensive. Jap originated as a racist term, just like calling someone “black” did. But it has lost its racist connotations over the years, and is now used as a nuetral adjective.
1 word losing its racist meaning does not mean another has yet. Maybe in 20 years the word jap will no longer be a racist term but that is not for 1 Atresac to decide. That is for the Japanese people to decide.
And apparently the UK too?
No, the UK doesn’t have a say. It only shows their acceptance of the Japanese as people.
and anyone who doesn’t think that the word Jap doesn’t accept the Japanese as people? Great logic retard.
You never understand anything I say. You need to slow down and think.
There is the UK and then there is you. The UK accepts the Japanese and understand that they find a word offensive for obvious reasons while you don’t and go crazy over Japanese people that do find it offensive.
I don’t go crazy, I defend my opinion. If you defended yours correctly I wouldn’t be going crazy on you.
You’re opinion when it is offensive and demeaning towards a race?

Atresac, obviously it insults him, therefore we should take it into concideration. If a person of Israeli heritage comes on here and said that using the term Jew was degrading to them, then I would refrain from saying the word, but until then there has been no problem with it. A word becomes racism when it hurts somebody, obviously it hurts 21 when you use it, so cut it out you racist pig.
If 21 is offended by it then fine, but the fact is it’s not used as a racist slur anymore save for a small group of people who still think racism is ok. If it offends him I’d refrain from saying it around him, my argument is trying to not get the word banned as a whole.
An entire race and a bunch of countries do not like the use of the word. Are you that blind?
The word is fine only in jokes and not overused. I already said that. I just don’t liken called jap. It’s Japanese.
And the rest of the countries don’t think it’s a racist word.
Exactly, only a select few. And as 21 said, majority rules.
The Japanese decide and it is the majority of the Japanese. No other race has a say unless it gets over ridiculous such as 1 race can say jap and another can’t.
So you are calling me racist when you yourself say no other race has a say in it?
No other race has a say unless it becomes ridiculous and exceptions are made.
You can’t go off and decide for another race what is offensive and what isn’t. It’s not racism. It’s the way the world works.
No other race has a say, but apparently the UK does.
No, they are just back up. It shows their acceptance of the Japanese and what they find offensive.

Since when do South Americans and Africans bother with the Japanese when they don’t interact?
This is about the Japanese, not the world.
