... many? Any meta discussion of the term; when providing a verbatim transcript of what someone said; when enumerating racial terms; historical context; etc etc.

What's your point, exactly?




So, when Sarah Jeong was using racial slurs for white people, was it in "verbatim transcript" or was she "enumerating racial terms"?

I am phenomenally interested to learn what the racial slurs for white people! Let's have them!

PS: I'm a white male. I've lived about half my life in two Black-majority countries and one Asian-majority country. I literally don't think I've ever had a racial slur used against me.
