Reading this thread I realized that I had no idea what that word meant, figured it was a particular kind of scam.

wiktionary has suprisingly good info on it https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/pajeet
tl;dr: yes, it's a slur
The problem with using dehumanising language like this is that it means that someone’s humanity, in your eyes, is contingent on your approval.
It says more about you as a person than it does about the people you criticise.
Yeah are we just ignoring the racial slurs? Bigots gonna be bigot-ing. Usually they’ll do so on 4chan.
there are slurs on 4chan
slurs on greentext? How could this happen??
read the sidebar, nobody cares
Racist trash 1/10
Fuck that. I don't care where they're from. Scammers don't deserve to be treated with respect or dignity. They are subhuman trash and ruin people's lives.
"Pajeet" is racist as fuck. We can hate scammers without being racist.
I don't see how it's any different from calling Russians "Ivan" of Germans "Fritz". It's not a nice thing to do but I'd place it pretty far down on the racism scale tbh.
