The Word "Chinamen" Now Racist
Posted by Dave Blount at June 5, 2007 12:17 PM
Here's some news you can use: the word "Chinamen" is now verboten, as it has been discovered to be "racist."
I had no idea, nor did the owner of the Chinese takeout restaurant Eggrolls, Etc., who had to remove the recently forbidden word from menus, advertising fliers, and the company's website to quiet the screechings of race grievance activists. He issued the standard abject apologies, groveling that his menu and fliers were "never intended to harm or insult the Asian-American or Chinese-American community."
Crowed a triumphant Jason Wong of the Tucson Chinese Association:
Any group or member of the community should not have to feel there is no one to support them if an injustice has been done. The support showed this is a wonderful community.
Which noun we're allowed to use for people of Chinese descent was not revealed.
The moonbat tactic of turning us against ourselves by constantly forcing us to apologize for being "offensive" has also been used with great success by Muslims, most famously during the Cartoon Intifada.
