Yeah, "indians". I thought that was a derogatory term for Natives, no? If it isn't then I'm wrong, but I thought it was. Anyone know for sure, or is flameswin just getting PC butthurt all up in here?
I just know that in real life whenever I hear white people talk unfavorably about Natives, they usually purposly call them Indians with a derogatory tone. Like "Well maybe those damn
indians should get a job!" as in "They don't want to be called Indians, but they piss me off so I'm going to call them Indians as a sign of disrespect!". That's kind of how those posts came off to me, but again, maybe that's just because of how I've heard the term used in real life.
