I think slurs refer to people, not objects.
But anyway, would you consider 'krauts' to be a slur too?
I agree slurs refer to people, but if you call a Japanese car a "rice cooker" (which is where this comes from) that's insulting the people...
And, yeah, at least originally. "Kraut" is one of those things that really has evolved somewhat, especially through krautrock in the 70s and other things. And whether it's racist is complex depending on definitions and blah blah blah. But it was definitely 100% coined as a slur.
So you consider yanks to be a slur and offensive right?
Polacks?
Frenchies?
Are you being for real? You dont understand the difference between calling an Asian person rice, and "Frenchie"? Smh my head
