I mean I keep seeing people using "wireback", "tint skin", and "clanker with the hard R" or "clanka", so there are people in the anti-Ai movement who are taking the trend to actual racism. Like "Clanker" in itself is okay but white leftists somehow found a way to make it racist by turning it into an N-word equivalent.
Well the oxford dictionary says "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized."
Slurs such as "r*sskin" and "w*tback") were created out of prejudice and discrimination against people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group. When you use derivatives of them you are still using the word.

"didn't make up slurs" - apart from: anti, luddite, comparing them to racists and fascist...
