      @@Salomon_G by any chace.... are you an eskimo, and more importantly, could you explain in your own words -not someone else's- why the word is a racial slur and why its appearance as the name of a band would be cause of offense to the peoples it refers to... in particular when some are actually proud of being recognized as eskimo? I spent 2 years in Alaska, and the Yupik I got to meet are very much ok with the term. The reason I ask is it seems to me you yourself are spitting rhetoric that you did not come up with on your own.

    • @pike666db
      @pike666db 2 года назад +12

      ​@@Salomon_G You see, Kraut is a term that, from my experience with Germans, they don't give a flying fuck about (I should know, I graduated Abitur from an international Alexander von Humboldt school) and they even use it themselves to refer to other things, depending on the context. Because context matters.
      You are mistaken in that Inuit is the *actual* name of all arctic peoples. It is the name of a tribe, but the Yupik are NOT Inuit. How do you think the Yupik or the Aleut feel about being called Inuit because some other dudes felt unhappy by the former context (see how context matters?) of an umbrella term that is not really offensive in nature - there's no consensus amongst expert linguists on the origin of the word. I can almost taste the irony AND the double standard. Also, I'm still waiting for the explanation in your own words on why the word is offensive (rather than sending me to do research when you are saying yourself I probably know it already).
      That other dude may be all about anti cancel culture, but you appear to be on the complete opposite side of the spectrum by defending being offended on behalf of others.
      Now, to answer your question: do I care about the feelings of those folks who claim to be offended by the particular use of a word? The answer is no. They are probably unaware of what words being used incorrectly tick me off, so, in reciprocity, I would not dare entertain the idea of keeping them under any obligation to care.
      And, no, I am not deciding that they shouldn't feel offended. If they feel offended and rage, that's their prerogative. But in my very personal opinion, it does not help anyone's mental health to become angered absent ill-intent.
      I would argue, though, that the fact that the word exists and is used in contexts that do not seek to offend is reason enough to not be deemed insensitive if one actively chooses to use it. The way I see it, the same applies to the shock value of any "charged" language.
      Perhaps a better direction, culturally, would be to develop acuity and emotional management instead of overprotecting susceptibilities. We'd get along much better in general.

    Guys, hello from peaceful russians. Thank you for your activity, it's really important now. We (good people) are feared by police, by government, we don't have any free media by facist laws, but 'll fight with that nightmare in Ukraine. Make love, not war - and again, thank you for protecting our minds by your energistic music and light of happiness. Maybe someday I'll see you in person in free Russia and give a brutal metal hugs, but nowadays we can only write here. You are the best. Go on.

      If I may ask you about the term "eskimo" since you are affected: as far as I know, the problem with the word started when a theory was made that it means "raw meat eater". Since that theory is now disproven, there should genetally not be an issue with that word anymore, or am I missing something? Is that generally considered racist or offensive by you people?
