>>40483930I actually *did* prior to the battle, but as I said, the potency and relevance of 'zipperhead' as a slur is basically zero.
My parents, who are both Korean, college educated, grew up blue-collar, and speak English as a first language, had no clue the word even existed.
Goes to show you how horrible of an epithet it is.
And I asked why it's so unacceptable for adults or people relatively far-progressed into their education to casually discuss the impact of obsolete derogatory terminology in an academic fashion. Still got the same "follow the rules" line.
