[quote=Anonymous]Comparisons to slurs used against other groups don't hold up because they are not used in a context in which members of the 'undesirable' group are likely to suffer legal or physical consequences resulting from structural inequities. Minority groups have often had their own unkind words for their coevals in the majority but the difference is that the taunting remains just that: it is not backed up by social, economic, and political power. White Man's Burden was an interesting cinematic rumination on these issues.[/quote]
