In England anyway referring to a Pakistan person as a P-a-k-i is a insult / racist remark, so I would assume that’s why it has been filtered.Sehwag309 said:Why does the word "p-a-k-i' turn to "******" when posting here?
Nope just that one abreviation that I can think off, the rest are just commonly used terms that are used in everyday talk.Sehwag309 said:Vow, never heard of that before.
So is calling a Aghanistani a Afghani racist too?
There seeems to be no problems with words such as "Brit", "Aussie", "Kiwi"
Strangely there are few pakistani websites with that word
as a racist remark, it would not just refer to pakistanis, but also to ppl from most of the islamic countriesand sri lanka, bangladesh, india, nepal, etc...most of us "browns" basicallyRich2001 said:In England anyway referring to a Pakistan person as a P-a-k-i is a insult / racist remark, so I would assume that’s why it has been filtered.
What does it mean though? How would it apply to people other than Pakistanis? If someone said that to me , i would just laugh off and say i am not a pakistani. If it has such a bad meaning why was it included in the name of a country :duh:indianreligion said:as a racist remark, it would not just refer to pakistanis, but also to ppl from most of the islamic countriesand sri lanka, bangladesh, india, nepal, etc...most of us "browns" basically

But its ok when a Black person calls black person "n-igger". I guess they exchange it in humour.indianreligion said:we are not pakistanis...but we all look like them don't we? and we are of the same race as them, it could hav been afghani, hindustani, lankan...watever,but it's p-aki
what it means is....basically,to be thinking of browns as racially different is where the offence lies, i think neil's said this before...it's as bad as n-igger.
the word itself is not imp...it is used to think of ppl as racially different and is therefore an offence.
