i know to look at me online i come off as one before i open my mouth but noone has ever accused me of it XD

i think it is a word like 'chink' 'nigger' 'nerd' 'retard' 'gold-digger' 'slut' 'faggot' or 'fatty', the point of it is to separate out a group of people on a single facet of their existence and not only make it the sole defining feature of them but to make sure they, and everyone around them knows that they are something horrible and ridiculous and shameful. it is a base insult whose definition only covers maybe /one/ person in several thousand but is used to encompass all who are different in that sort of way simply because it is easier than trying to understand why they are what they are and judge them on their merits

the short answer is though it weirds some people out, especially americans who are highly self-centered to the point where their own obsession with 'patriotic' favoritism is seen as the norm and anything else is offensive(unfortunately this mania is part of what encourages 'weeaboo' tendencies, personally i love a lot japanese crap but if the same things are made in other places my favoritism lies with the best version regardless of the letters on the package)
