the wikipedia article on it cites two instances where it didn’t seem to be wayy back at the word’s inception. but yeah hardly matters in the grand scheme
Naw, it was most commonly used as a term similar to “that chinese guy” which is easy to confuse with racism at a time period where people were generally racist towards the chinese, but the term itself is not racist. There were actual slurs back then they could use if they were about that.
My Grandmother said they always bought they’re vegetables growing up from the chinaman who rolled his cart through the alleyway behind their homes. It’s not a term of hate, but it’s easy to say hateful things alongside it.
You know, you can be critical of a government without using racist slurs against the people from that country. Not everyone from China is part of the CCP.
Your submission in “Tencent says it’s not a Chinese military company and is willing to sue the US Department of Defense if it isn’t removed from a blacklist” was removed for Rule 3.
Of course it’s not a military company, it’s an espionage company.
There is a reason why chinaman kicked out google and facebook from his market…
giving you the benefit of the doubt like maybe english isn’t your first language, that word is considered a pejorative/slur in all modern usage
It’s never been anything but.

The people going around loudly policing other people’s language do more harm to leftist causes than good.
How are you this dense?

Chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature, dude.
Oh but for some reason Floridaman is okay?
His racism was on full display, huh?
Touché

CCP moderation detected.
You are making it racist, it is just term unless calling our daddy as the man is also racist.
🤡
Yeah, okay.
Derogatory terms towards anyone will always get removed, have a good day.
