Paki

Paki is an abbreviation of Pakistani. It is sometimes incorrectly used for people of South Asian ancestry in general. The term likely originated in Northern England, when Pakistanis first began flooding in during the 1950s and 1960s.

Controversy

Today, Paki is widely considered a taboo racial slur thanks to oversensitive leftists. The reason behind their behaviour of labeling Paki as a racial slur can be summed up as follows:

  1. Paki is shorter than Pakistani, and because leftists have a superiority complex and a narcissistic savior complex and deep down feel non-Whites are inferior, they are oversensitive to anything that might make non-Whites seem inferior, including something as inconsequential as using an abbreviation of a group name instead of the full name. Applying this logic of not being able to say Paki while Pakistani is good simply because it is longer to Europeans, calling someone of European ancestry Euro or white should also be considered a racial slur because it's shorter and their skin is not actually white colored, but a variation of light colors.
  2. Paki is typically used in a disparaging, disrespecting way, so they think it must be banned to spare Pakistani peoples' feelings. This is similar to the argument revolving around the word nigger. In reality Pakistanis usually don't care about the word Paki unless they've been primed to care about it; moreover censoring or tabooing a word that is typically used disparagingly will lead to some people simply making up new slurs to avoid the censorship while simultaneously others will continue to use the old slurs in creative ways to avoid the censorship, ultimately increasing the number of slurs in the language without reducing the usage of slurs in general. Tabooing of words will also lead to more acts of violence (not fewer) from the lower-IQ members of the group who have learned the term to be an offensive racial slur and to be offended whenever it's uttered, so if an unknowing person mistakenly utters Pakis in good conscience, Pakis who have learned to be offended may become aggressive and violent.
