"hadji" references are about as high on my list as "gook"
particularly when paired with stepping in shit and not knowing if it's from a hadji or a dog
or wiping their ass with their hand

I've had this same similar discussion with some vets/peace activists recently, and I'm dead set against spreading around work that opposes the war and the administration, but couches that message in racist or sexist terms designed to dehumanize.

We can do better.
