PSA FOR GENTILES: The worst slur in the English language for Jewish people begins with the letter K. This means that every time you jokingly refer to words like kill, Karen*, etc. as “the K word” or “the K slur,” you are inadvertently giving all your Jewish followers a collective heart attack. Please keep this in mind before accidentally implying that you’d like to say something antisemitic (or otherwise offensive, as other languages/regions likely also have actual slurs that begin with K).
For those not familiar with the antisemitic term, I am linking to an informational page from a Jewish organisation about its usage and origins here. Please do not click on the link unless you are comfortable seeing the word uncensored.
*If you’re not joking about Karen being a slur … get well soon, I guess
