    I don’t see how it’s any different from calling Russians “Ivan” of Germans “Fritz”. It’s not a nice thing to do but I’d place it pretty far down on the racism scale tbh.

      Ivan or Fritz are real names/surnames from those countries which have completely different meaning now compared to how they were used in wars. Pajeet is a made up name only used so far to hate on Indians/ South Asians.

        Calling russians Ivan and Germans Fritz is also racist, even if the names are legit 😁

        It might not be as bad as calling Indians Pajeet, because there’s less contempt, but still!

            Someone needs to take a chill pill. I did say “pajeet” is worse (and I’ll add that it’s on a whole other level of offence), and somehow that makes me a racist. Sure bud. All I was saying is dehumanizing russians or germans is not OK 🙄

              And your two examples are also super offensive. Replacing one with the other makes no difference. You’re not making any sense, but I guess you’re not yourself when you’re malding for no good reason.
