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.
Ivan or Fritz are real names/surnames from those countries which have completely different meaning now compared to how they were used in wars. Pajeet is a made up name only used so far to hate on Indians/ South Asians.
TIL it's not even a real name
Nope. Closest I can think of are Prajyot and Pradeep.
It does look a lot like Paget, which is a French name pronounced differently
Calling russians Ivan and Germans Fritz is also racist, even if the names are legit 😁
It might not be as bad as calling Indians Pajeet, because there's less contempt, but still!
Someone needs to take a chill pill. I did say "pajeet" is worse (and I'll add that it's on a whole other level of offence), and somehow that makes me a racist. Sure bud. All I was saying is dehumanizing russians or germans is not OK 🙄
And your two examples are also super offensive. Replacing one with the other makes no difference. You're not making any sense, but I guess you're not yourself when you're malding for no good reason.
