Another offensive name to be changed. This time it's a fish
Quote:
The term “Asian carp” has become endangered in Minnesota.

The state Senate on Monday approved a measure that would rename the fish “invasive carp.” It’s a response to concern by some people that the current term casts people from Asian cultures in a negative light.

Senators added the proposal to a larger bill that governs Minnesota natural-resource use. That legislation returns to the House, where it passed earlier this month without the name change.

Champlin Democrat John Hoffman said on the Senate floor that referring to the fish as “Asian” was hurtful to some people.

Officials have been trying to block the non-native fish’s progress into Mississippi River and Great Lakes ecosystems.

Asian is now a slur.

I really have no idea how to describe a person from Asia now.

Political correctness is a complete waste of time, money and energy.

How were these people even created?

"Oriental" became a slur, so I suppose it's inevitable that "Asian" will eventually be as well.

It's a culture of victimhood. It's how you gain power. The more offended, insulted, and oppressed you are (or at least claim to be) the more moral authority you have.

They cannot change the name to that since in Minnesota its illegal to kill a home invading carp.

So if Asian is now a slur... is European a slur? Or African? Or American? I'm confused.

It would make more sense to change the name if it were, say, the "Ching Chong Wing Wong Fish".
