    What’s racist about it though? Like isn’t just because most people that would say “I met a japanese” are the same people who use the words “a female” when they talk about women? Is there anything actually racist in the phrasing itself, that makes it different from referring to other nationalities?

      Like someone else said, the vibes are just off in a way I can’t quite articulate.

      “A German” sounds okay but “a Japanese” or “a Chinese” just don’t without a “person” or some other word after them

        Oh well that’s easy. That’s because the chinese are people, while the germans aren’t
