Apropos of the Nigel Farage "Chinky" fiasco, it got me wondering - there exist hierarchies of racism:
All 3 are recognised racial slurs, so why does the hierarchy exist?
- "Nigger" is definitely a no-no, so much so that even when discussing it, it is normally truncated to "N-word"
- "Paki" is frowned upon by most, but still used a lot
- "Chinky" is apparent;y up for debate
